The democrats want my money?! Ha!

Posted by davidzon | Posted in General | Posted on 21-09-2004

The thugs at the DNC (democrats) sent me a letter ranting about how evil Bush is, and how I should vote for Kerry because he ain’t Bush. Right. This is what they’re getting in return…

“To Whom It May Concern:

I recently received a solicitation from your office for the campaign of John Kerry. While I would love to support his candidacy, I respectfully decline, as I do not feel his views represent mine. I will be voting for Ralph Nader in the next election, not only as a vote of dissent but to help ensure that John Kerry loses this election.”

A Response to A Nader-Hater…

Posted by davidzon | Posted in General | Posted on 17-09-2004

(This is a post made to a Green Party mailing list in response to someone claiming that Nader would destroy third parties in the US for generations to come…)

This issue has been beaten to death by now, but I figure I’m going to add my $0.02 here as well…

Andy, the fact is that I would never have become engaged in the Green Party if it wasn’t for Ralph Nader. And I know I am not the only one. To suggest that “we can expect third parties to die off” as a result of Nader running is to ignore all facts that suggest otherwise — such as the fact that the Green Party has only grown because of the 2000 election.

I am not here to play games. I am not here to support the democrats. I am not here to continue business as usual. I am here to change the system. I am here to challenge the thugs and bastards who dare to call themselves American senators, congressmen, president, etc. They are a disgrace not only to our nation but to our world, and I am not here to say “yea, just play a bit nicer and we’ll let you stay in power”.

Was it worth it?

Posted by davidzon | Posted in General | Posted on 09-09-2004

The New York Times has printed a list of photographs of the 1000 dead in the illegal, unjustified war on Iraq.

These are only american faces. What about all of the Iraqis, the many many thousands who have been maimed and wounded?

Is it worth it?
