The long haired hippies and the afro blacks
They all get together across the tracks
And they party

What a farce, taking a nice DFH word, with positive connotations, and co-opting it with political newspeak.
USA! USA!! USA!!1!!1!!!1!!!1
I expected chauvinistic propaganda from the Rs and the Trumpeters.
Not from Hillary and the Democrats.
I'm saddened, and in a way, frightened by what CiC Hillary and Gen Allen have in mind after Jan 20, 2017.
I remember seeing that ad (for something) many years ago where Calvin Coolidge said
The business of America is business.
whilst omitting the rest. I thought, "I see where we are going here." at the time. Ideology and the concurrent theft raining down from above, dogma from Rush.
What? You're not all reading Free Beacon and Daily Caller yet? /s
Look, I've already reluctantly admitted that if one stays clear of anything with Obama or IRS or Terrorist in the title (and DEFINITELY stay away with anything about voting), there actually is some journalism at Judicial Watch.
Bent dreams
exceptional means
waking to betterment...
get up and go dreams of flight, fight
Honor
Lost in nightmares of old
regurgitated
cause we, we, we, we, we
know best
The invincible best
droning over
daring children to oblige
Large screen democracy
with voicemails dubbed in
sets built of corrugated
straw
Blow wind blow
The first is of cruel and excessive punishment
Chelsea Manning may face charges relating to a suicide attempt this year, which could lead to indefinite solitary confinement or transferral to a maximum-security facility, according to a civil rights group.
Good Citizens of c99p, my sister asked me about my spiritual experience lo these many years ago, so I thought I'd dredge up the story from wayy back. I wrote it in 1992, and the events are from 1972. In 1992, the internet wasn't very much, in fact, BBSes ruled the earth. My story got Top Ten stories of all national WWIV BBSes for that year! Things have changed, haven't they? Back then the name "Blue" was easy to obtain. Anyway, hope you enjoy the story itself.
I'm going to type it from the paper exactly as it is printed, no changes (including the archaic BBS header).
The threat that we could elect President a shallow, egotistical grifter whose career can be credited entirely to his father's success and could engage us in a multi-decades war, crush the economy while siphoning the national wealth off to his crony friends and set American jurisprudence back 50 years doesn't scare me.
I've lived through it once already. #GWBUSH
Referring to a hexagram in the I-Ching - 59. Dissolution. 4th line changing. According to my quick ref online I-Ching, facade.com:
The fourth line, divided, shows its subject scattering the different parties in the state, which leads to great good fortune. From the dispersion he collects again good men standing out, a crowd like a mound, which is what ordinary men would not have thought of.
The definition of The American Dream varies depending on the individual, but it almost always involves owning a home.
Which is why this should alarm you.
