  • Free Speech TV Announces the Launch of The Big Picture with Thom Hartmann   14 years 22 weeks ago

    Thom,

    This is Craig from San Jose, the guy who recently and periodically calls about public financing of campaigns (which I've been working on in California for almost 7 years). There's a key piece of public financing systems that will counteract Citizens United and it wasn't mentioned in your conversation with the gentleman from Common Cause last week. It's the additional matching funds provided by the system to candidates who are targeted by independent expenditures by corporate America and other wealthy special interest groups. I know these groups can now spend unlimited sums, and that it will now be more difficult for public financing systems to completely match such large sums...but they don't have to! They just have to provide enough money for the targeted candidate to get the word out about what they really stand for, and who's supplying all the money being used to target them. I'm not naive. I know public financing by itself can't fix everything. But it's one of the crucial reforms we need, a reform that will help counteract the Citizens United case, and a reform which that case does not make pointless but rather more urgent. Please mention it more often in conjunction with your excellent explanantions of how private money undermines our democracy.

    Now, if only the pope would call for American politicians to be moral, then we would have a pope who is willing to take on the totally immoral U.S. Congress and the totally immoral U.S. Supreme Court.

    A Thursday night few weeks ago, The Colbert Report had David Stockman as a guest. You may recall that Stockman was Pres. Ronald Reagan's Budget Director. He was one of the architects of Reaganomics, along with the Trickle-Down Theory and other nonsensical notions such as the idea that lowering taxes on the rich creates jobs.

    What was particularly interesting about this appearance was that he openly admitted that those theories were mistaken and bogus, and that they screwed up...it doesn't work.

    Why haven't we seen anyone with a large voice on our side, howling this admission from the rooftops? The designer of the program himself apologizes for just how bad his program is.

    It's about time we tax the rich their fair share. All the BS reasons why we shouldn't have been proven wrong over the last 30 years; Can't we learn from that history? Equality means a better world for everyone, and the rich finally contributing what they should would bring us closer to that equality. .

  • Could the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision soon be overturned?   14 years 22 weeks ago

    There are 5 Catholic Justices (I believe) - 4 are ultra-conservative. Guess which ones voted for Citizens United? Guess which ones attended conservative functions? Guess which ones will side for Anti-Abortion decisions in the future? Guess which ones will side for Corporations? Guess which ones will in general rule in favor of decisions and agendas supported by right-wing groups?

    This has been in the works for many years by the neo-conservative think tanks, fundamental religious groups, corporate interests and lots of $$$.

    There is an Agenda here - guess whose?

    Anyone with a modicum of brain matter and reasoning ability deduced this years ago.

    The real fight to save Democracy now is who will get to place Supreme Court justices that will side for either the corporations or the People.

    Judges who are suppose to be impartial in the name of JUSTICE and equality should not be associating with people or entities for which they then rule in favor for – this goes for both left and right. Judges are human but they have to be impartial – this is the reason for the Blindfold on lady justice!

    Big Money own and control The Media Airwaves. They own at least 4 Supreme Court justices. They have Unlimited access to $$$. They now own and control the majority of The House Of Representatives. They are 4 short of owning 50 Senators. And they need to own the presidency.

    Guess what the Agenda of Right-Wing Neo-Conservative, Fundamental religious right, and corporate interests are for 2012?

    It is no accident that the Cable giant COMCAST has acquired and merged NBC/MSNBC. In the next 2 years watch NBC and MSNBC slide towards the right or become centrist.

    There is a concerted and planned agenda by the Right - that is total control of our Democracy. Anyone who believes in his/her freedom(s) and denies this does so at their peril.

    Good thing they arrested the guy with the camera last week in Az. Now there's a threat.

  • Could the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision soon be overturned?   14 years 22 weeks ago

    ...and because of that...they do not answer to God for their actions. They are automatons. The people responsible for turning them loose on society are ultimately responsible for what they do....good or bad. To say corporations are people is to say that Man has created a new form of life. Mary Shelley can supply appropriate metaphors...no?

  • Could the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision soon be overturned?   14 years 22 weeks ago

    Indeed.....fight fire with fire. Corporations are not people because they do not have Souls.

    MLK Pipe Bomb and Corcoran tied through World Service Life, Dr. MLK Director.

    TECHNICAL VIDEO RENTAL, INC. is the owner of Corcoran's domain Heavyink.com. The corporation, originally created as APPLIED SECURITY, INC. was created 3/4/1999. The domain heavyink.com was registered the same day.

    On the same day, Brown Bros. Harriman created a new trust entity, according to NIC

    1999-03-04 BROWN BROTHERS HARRIMAN TRUST COMPANY OF PENNSYLVANIA located at 1531 WALNUT STREET, PHILADELPHIA, PA was established as a Non-deposit Trust Company - Non-member.

    On the same day in Lindsey Graham's state a new KKK entity was created

    INVISIBLE EMPIRE INTERNATIONAL KEYSTONE KNIGHTS OF THE KU KLUX KLAN STATUS: Good Standing STATE OF INCORPORATION / ORGANIZATION: SOUTH CAROLINA Non Profit REGISTERED AGENT INFORMATION REGISTERED AGENT NAME: REV BARRY E BLACK & REV JOHN HOWARD ADDRESS: 108 W LAURENS ST CITY: LAURENS STATE: SC ZIP: 29360 SECOND ADDRESS: FILE DATE: 03/04/1999

    On the same day in Indiana another entity expired in GA where 0X0 files have been a chute for certain activities.

    WHITECO INDUSTRIES, INC. (FOREIGN PROFIT) Officers 1000 E 80TH PL MERRILLVILLE, IN 46410 J050198 WITHDRAWN (FOREIGN) 03/12/1970 03/04/1999 NEBRASKA Registered Agent Agent Address Agent County C.T. CORPORATION SYSTEM 1201 PEACHTREE ST NE ATLANTA, GA 30361 FULTON

    World Service Life:

    3/4/1958 Dr Martin Luther King director of United American Life via International Opportunity Life Insurance Company; two year term until 1960.

    Notice the repitition of 3/4 in the creation of all the entities. It represents a certain set of securities rolling over on 3/4/ annually and until eternity unless the G-Men finally get it!

    3/4/1999 International Opportunity Life changed names on 3/4/1999 to "World Service Life Insurance Company"

    3/17/1999 WSL also became Lincoln Memorial Life

    Because the Eugenics Society is sick, sick, sick. Waco wacko wacko.

    Let us not forget that ink is made from soy, and the first Klan printing press was sent from Texas to Indiana in 1922.

    Let us not forget that this insurance company was finally merged into Swiss Re, the same Swiss Re which used to be called "Phoenix Life" and was aka North American Re, same Swiss Re which purchased Lincoln Re 9/10/2001:

    9/10/2001 LNC sold Lincoln Reinsurance to Swiss Re (aka North American Re) the day before the WTC attack; FTC Transaction Number: 20012356 Early Termination Date: 09/10/2001 Acquiring Person: Swiss Reinsurance Company Acquired Person: Lincoln National Corporation Acquired Entity: The Lincoln National Life Insurance Company (LNL was the unsuror of the Towers. The purchase contract provided that the claim costs from the 11 September 2001 events remain with the seller).

    Adolph Hitler's influence upon conservatives and Republicans in the United States of Mortal Sin is very powerful.

    Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it.

    Most of Us are getting tired of the "business as usual politics" and some are ready to take action...even drastic action. Some personalities are more impatient than others and they will rise first. They will be seen as "radicals", or "martyrs". Examples of what not to do, or the "courageous first" who show the rest of Us a way.

    Because Travis Corcoran posted his agenda in a blog, I think is a sign that he really didn't want to do this terrible thing. Wasn't that posting a plea for help in finding better ways to rid Our Nation of the parasites that infect it? But, he might have been looking for support. Needed to know that he was right...or wrong. And I bet he didn't have enough killing skill and strength to kill the remaining 534 members of congress. I can't believe that he really believed he could. To say so was either just stupid, or a test to see who would agree with him. Maybe a call to those of Us who might agree with his solution. Aw! He is just frustrated.

    Bottom line: He did no such thing. He didn't even go to Washington did he? Having guns and ammo doesn't mean he is unstable enough to do what he says. It was wrong of the authorities to confiscate his weaponry. His words gave them the excuse they needed. They should have just kept an eye on him. Persecuting him just pushes his status toward the "Martyr Category".

    He was just sounding off. Not sure what good he thought it would do. Hmmm. Maybe to distract authorities away from other and really dangerous organizing?
