Moveon.org spam actually has good event

Updated July 13, 2006 @ 12:59 pm

Okay, so I get tons of announcements from Moveon.org and I don’t even know when I signed up for it, or if I did. However, one announcement seems like an interesting event next week: National Media Impact Day where one can learn how to get media coverage for events. Maybe though this is a cult group meeting or something…ramp up protest!

American Soldiers and Blaming Americans

Updated July 12, 2006 @ 1:38 pm

Ok, I just wanted to comment about how absolutely disgusting and horrible these recent American soldier rape cases are at present. Its really helpful (heavy sarcasm) sending out these young misdirected youth into the battle field to really help represent American culture (let alone that there are youth with this type of mentality in the first place…who and how are these kids getting raised?)

I’ve noticed the change when traveling abroad where people used to make the differentiation between the American military and administration, but now I get the constant: “Its you and your problem! You are to blame! Why isn’t anyone doing anything?”

Time to ramp up counter-measures, complaints and utter protest against what is happening!
