I'm so disappointed with the election results. Americans must have the memory of gerbils. Republicans back in office? Do you remember why you voted for Obama? It was because of where the Republicans under Bush had taken us. Do you see who's in the wings as far as Republican leadership? You want THAT governing your country? We know what the Taliban looks like in Afghanistan, in the states it looks like Limbaugh & Palin...
Maybe the best we can hope for is the worst...that the oligarchy's attempt to keep the post-capitalist corporate sinking ship afloat collapses before we destroy life on the planet and whoever's left gets a chance to start from scratch.
There does seem to be the stench of collective suicide in the air, don't there?
Sometimes I do think we are living on the cusp of a new dark ages. Our "Vikings" are not quite here but they are on the horizon with the 21st century version of loot, rape and burn.

Wishing you a miraculous new solstice vision!
thank you jacob. if the schools and truthful voices are closed down, it would be very dark indeed. but they're not quiet yet.
