Web Log Purpose

A web log based on the principle that a civilized society deserves democratic government based on integrity. The premise here is the U.S. democracy has effectively been subverted by oligarchical forces which must be opposed with facts and rational thought. (An RSS feed is recommended.)

A Petition to Congress

Below is personal language I added to a petition being circulated by Alan Grayson.  It is time to begin holding Congress, and especially the Tea/Republican party for this atrocity called the sequester. 

I can only say shame on some Congress members for even considering for a moment cutting Social Security, Medicare, and other much-needed benefits for the American people.  Bravo to Rep. Conyers for pointing out the obvious:  What Congress creates, Congress can revise, amend, or abolish.  Enough of the hubris and ideology.  It is time for common-sense practicality.  Please support Rep. Conyers' effort.
