Statement on Sarah Palin's Nuclear Weapons Policy

Bob Kinsey--Green Party Candidate for US Senate in Colorado
October 3, 2008
In the debate last night Sarah Palin stated the following with regard to nuclear weapons.
Palin:  Nuclear weaponry, of course, would be the be all, end all of just too many people in too many parts of our planet, so those dangerous regimes, again, cannot

Missile Silo Witness

I was privileged to join 24 other folks from the anti nuclear weapon community in this witness a missile silo N-8 near New Raymer.  To stand in front of this seemingly benign but barren  fenced off piece of what was once praire where buffalo roamed and realize it is one of 49 nuclear armed missiles on launch on warning alert is always a wake up call.  To remember that President Bush's announced policy to use such missiles against non-nuclear states in a pre-emptive manner is a crime against humanity according to international law is to hang one's head in shame and to realize the need to change our war driven policies.You may need to copy and past the URL to view.

Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont Gets it Right

AS reported on Common Dreams yesterday, Bernie Sanders has a non rip off plan!!
"For years, as a member of the House Banking Committee and now as a member of the Senate Budget Committee, I have heard the Bush Administration tell us how "robust" our economy was and how strong the "fundamentals" were. That was until a few days ago. Now, we are being told that if Congress does not act immediately and approve the $700 billion Wall Street bailout proposal these "free marketers" have just written up, there will be an unprecedented economic meltdown in the United States and an unraveling of the global economy.

Letter to my Congress Person who refused to Impeach Bush/Cheney

Representative DeGette
 
I am opposed to the idea of bailing out the Wall Street gamblers who have been undermining the financial system since Reagonomics came into play.  The Congress is complicit in the whole mess, having repealed the Glass Steagall Act in 1999.  Having dumped any regulatory oversight, the financial services "industry" has been creating the illusion of economic growth for a decade and the Wall Street crooks knew perfectly well they were just rolling the dice at Las Vegas East and telling the American public they should get in on the game.  This was called sound economic growth. 
While I am not sanguine about prospects for any "plan"  fixing this disaster, certainly the public that is now suffering s

Heroes Named to Sell Ourselves on War

The war machine we have built names people heroes  who kill indiscriminately at 10,000 feet and call the deaths of civilians "collateral damage"--and poisons the planet.      In Congress it is just as important as the flag in the lapel to "thank you for your service"  to anyone actively in the military who testifies in Congress and is wearing a uniform.    But  their  service has often been to promote the cold steel, Darth Vader technology and its use as a valid extension of the brave warrior who risks his or her own life to protect the community and the innocent.Thus John McCain is portrayed as a war hero as he functioned in an unjust, unconstitutional war wreaking havoc on civilians more than upon opposing warriors.

Open the Debates! Statement on South Ossetia, Georgia and Russia

Open the Debates!!
Statement on Georgia/S. Ossetia/Russia
    Both the Republican and Democratic Party candidates for U.S. Senate in Colorado give unqualified  support to the Republic of Georgia and its President as if the issue is isolated from a U.S. Foreign Policy that seeks to push NATO and U.S. Military presence further and further towards Moscow.  This reveals that neither should be chosen to represent the people of Colorado in the U.S. Senate, unless of course, Coloradoans  support the wrong headed and cold hearted war policies that infect our nation.  As Cindy Sheehan states, "George W. Bush is like a boil on the butt of the U.S.

The "Historic" Day

    What a day!  Joining the march for immigration reform and then spending time among folks wearing "Legalize LA" T-Shirts in Lincoln Park talking will all kinds of potential voters--some on the Obama crusade (You could spot them by the Qwest Lanyards around their necks) , some willing to talk Green -- and then some black shirts from California circulating newsprint magazines with Junior High Marxian analysis of the system that needs a violent overthrow.  When I suggested to one young woman that violent revolution to change the evil system would merely replace the personnel in charge of some other exploitive system, she accused me of having been educated by running dog historians who rewrote history in the interest of the ruling class.  I repeated that violent revolu

Gustav is Coming

If I were part of the fundamentalist  religious right but also waking to the horrors of how the neocons  had used me for the past 16 years to gain and hold power for the corporations and the other overly rich I might be tempted.
Tempted? 
To suggest that hurricane Gustav approaching the U.S.
