I truly believe that our country only benefits by more people becoming interested, involved and invested in our political process. I say this although I vehemently disagree with the ideology of this site. Usually I just read what's posted and it certainly is food for thought. What troubles me is that I can't shake the feeling that you hate me...and others like me. In decrying how you felt dehumanized during this campaign, you dehumanize me..by calling me and others like me names like "Obots". In speaking out justifiably against sexism, you minimize the influence of racism...referring to it simply as a "card" to be played. Completely ignoring the fact that those who discriminate against blacks are often those who also discriminate against women. I guess it leaves me wondering if there is any common cause between us? Is our joint opposition to discrimination in any form and our quest to find our political voice enough to overcome our disagreement over who should be President? Or does that disagreement trump everything? Is there a possibility for rapproachment or is your rejection of me and those like me total and complete? I’ll start by saying I’m glad this site exists.

Here's my letter to Newsweek: http://mylifeontheglist.com/2008/11/10/my-letter-to-newsweek-not-with-my-money/ Murphy, what are our action plans about boycotting MSM. Surely we need to let them know who own them. woodie, the only cable news I watch is FOXnews (it’s the most balanced), I am boycotting the rest. Here’s my letter to Newsweek:

That was 30 yrs. ago..... And quite frankly, Palin should have told them this. Hey you guys the media need to can it, you know why, because us women fight in wars right along side the men, therefore we should have equal rights and certainly more respect than what you are showing me right now....that's what she should have told them.

It gets much more bang for the buck, and does not sideline the banks, which, after all, will be the continuing base for lending in the future. Most top economists much preferred this approach from the get-go. ================== How does this compare with the approach Bill Clinton's Treasury used with their successful bailouts of Mexico and some Asian situations in the 90s? (The Mexico thing ended up making a profit for the US.) BrianH 11.12.08 at 4:53 pm
