Too Late>>>>>>

RNC, Please Don’t

Peruse any of the various stories about the Republican National Committee considering Las Vegas for the 2016 convention and the stories will read as if the GOP is going open handed to its sugar daddy, Sheldon Adelson.

Already, Republicans across the nation are tripping over themselves in the rush to bask in Mr. Adelson’s presence and pledge their undying loyalty to him. Many of these Republicans are willing to ban online gambling to further Mr. Adelson’s business interests. He owns casinos.

It is embarrassing. A party that is trying to show it represents Main Street, not Wall Street, and the middle class, not the American aristocracy, should not put itself in a position where all the news stories suggest they want a convention in Vegas to placate a donor...According to the Red State.

Too Late, the GOP has already proven that they are Anti-Middle Class by Fighting ObamaCare and by Weakening/ Disabling Unions and by fighting against repairing the infrastructure of the United States and by cuts in Education funding and by each and every one of their members who cut  employees hours for their own profit and by bankrupting our youth with student loan debt and by fighting any raises in the minimum wage and by causing the Government Shut down that was and by cutting each and every service that the poor need in order to provide tax cuts for the very rich. So Yes, thanks to the Supreme Court They do have to 'Kiss Their Sugar Daddy's Ring'.

United State of America--When Will Enough Be Enough????

 

Fort Hood Shooter Ivan Lopez: A Familiar Profile

By Mark Follman

Details are still emerging as to exactly how and why Army Spec. Ivan Lopez shot 3 people to death and injured 16 others in a rampage on Wednesday, but we already know enough to be certain about one thing: We've seen this grim story before, and not just literally at Fort Hood, the site of a previous bloodbath in 2009. As the data from our in-depth investigation of mass shootings in America shows, Lopez fits a familiar profile for perpetrators of this type of crime. Here's how his background and actions echo those of many mass shooters we analyzed from 67 cases over the past three decades. [READ MORE]

 Yet again, Another soldier comes home with Post-Dramatic Stress-- who does not get the treatment he needs, but is able to legally purchase any weapon with enough ammo to start his own war.

WHAT IS THE NRA'S SOLUTION--MORE GUNS AND AMMO FOR MORE PEOPLE!! WHY--$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! After all, the NRA is $$$Funded$$$ by Weapon Manufacturers. The more weapons and ammo that is bought, the more $$$$MONEY$$$ they make and donate to the NRA, who in turn donate it to Conservative Lobbyist and Conservative Spin Doctors--Otherwise Known as Television Evangelists. THIS IS THE UNHOLY ALLIANCE OF CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIANITY--REPUBLICAN PARTY--NRA, WHO ARE ALL  BOUND TOGETHER BY THE LOVE OF $$$MONEY$$$, WHILE HIDING BEHIND THE CROSS OF JESUS.

IS IT ANY WONDER THAT THE GROSS IN-JUSTICE HAPPENED TO DR. WU. After all, it was 1957. Republican Dwight D. Eisenhower was in the White House. Republican Joseph McCarthy was free to terrorize every who may or may not have ever been a member of the Communist Party. It was a White Male Heterosexual Christian America, where everyone else was a Second Class Citizen who was suppose to be happy with the scraps from their table.

THIS IS ALSO WHY SO MANY ARE NOW ARMING UP--THEY ARE TERRIFIED ABOUT BECOMING THE MINORITY--AFTER ALL, LOOK HOW THEY--WHITE MALE HETROSEXUAL CHRISTIANS USED AND ABUSED OTHERS WHEN THEY WERE THE MAJORITY--THEY ARE TERRIFIED OF BECOMING THE PRESECUTED MINORITY.

The Update to petition.

Chien-Shiung Wu

"Chien-Shiung Wu took a different route to support the war effort. The Chinese-born American was already in her thirties and teaching physics at both Princeton University in New Jersey and Smith College in Massachusetts. Her work garnered the attention of the U.S. Government during WWII and was invited to work on the Army’s secretive Manhattan Project at Columbia University. Dr. Wu helped developed the process that enabled the enrichment of uranium ore to produce large enough quantities to make the atomic bomb. Later she discovered a principle in physics which overthrew a then widely held belief about the law of symmetry. The discovery earned the Nobel Prize of Physics in 1957, but only Dr. Wu’s two male colleagues were given the credit. She spent the rest of her life lecturing and encouraging women to participate in science. The “First Lady of Physics” died in New York in 1997."
If both her male colleagues received Nobel Prize in Physics--Dr. Wu should have too. This gross In-Justice needs and must be corrected.

Nobel Commity--Correct This In-Justice of 1957!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is why I started a petition, which I do hope others will sign. It was a Gross In-Justice that Dr. Chien-Shiung Wu's male colleagues received the Nobel Prize in Physics, but not the Good Doctor, Herself. This In-justice Needs and Must Be Corrected By Awarding Her-- Her Long Over Due Nobel Prize, Now--Post-Harmoniously. After all, If a Medal Of Honor can be awarded after a person dies, so should the Nobel Prizes.

This is it>>>

Demand that the Gross Injustice be corrected/ Award Dr. Wu, her Nobel Prize, now--better late than n

Update #1 March 6, 2014full update ▾

The Hiland LLC Pipeline Petition to urge the North Dakota Commissioners to penalize them instead of letting them off scot-free has stalled at 35 signatures. I would urge you all to ask your friends on Care2 to sign this important petition. This one has a chance of making it up to the front page if we can get enough critical momentum going, US residents especially, & North Dakota residents critically. Please help, thank you.

 

Oklahoma company won't be fined for pipeline without permit

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A company that operated a natural gas pipeline for more than two years without a permit will not be fined by the state Public Service Commission. The pipeline by Hiland Operating LLC of Enid, Okla., was completed in 2010. The company told the commission in May 2012 that it did not have a permit. The Bismarck Tribune reports that a company can be fined up to $10,000 per day for "willfully building an energy conversion facility or transmission line without a permit," with the total fine not to exceed $200,000. Commissioners say they don't think the violation was intentional and fining Hiland might deter other companies from considering investment in North Dakota.
The Commission's statutory responsibilities concerning pipelines in North Dakota include:

• Establishment and enforcement of rates or charges and regulations by common pipeline carriers for receiving, gathering, transporting, loading, delivering, and incident storing of crude petroleum, coal or gas purchased or sold in North Dakota; and
•  Enforcement of safety requirements for intrastate distribution and transmission of natural gas.

Duties of the North Dakota Public Service Commissioners: The Commission is comprised of three Commissioners who are elected on a statewide basis to staggered six-year terms. The Commission was established before North Dakota became a state. Dakota Territory established a Board of Railroad Commissioners in 1885 to oversee railroads, sleeping car companies, express companies, and telephone companies. The State's constitution retained this board and entrusted it with powers and duties to be prescribed by law. In 1940 the Board's name was changed to Public Service Commission. As the preceding list indicates, the Legislature has broadened the Commission's duties since its early days. This trend has been reversed in some areas, however, as technology and a changing regulatory environment at both the federal and state levels have resulted in a greater dependence on competitive market forces to regulate services and rates of what were traditionally monopoly service providers. It is anticipated that some degree of regulatory oversight will remain in most of the Commission's traditional areas of responsibility. The public's needs and legislative policymakers will ultimately decide how much regulation is required in various industries.
Demand corporate accountability from Hiland Operating LLC! Demand that Brian Kalk, Randy Christmann, & Julie Fedorchak do the jobs they were elected to do. It doesn't matter if the violation was intentional or not! Ignorance of the law is no excuse for any of us, why should it be different for a corporation?
Hiland Operating LLC should be obliged to pay the $200,000.00 fine which is a slap on the wrist when compared to the amount of time they were operating, well over 730 days!!!
Send the message to Commissioners Kalk, Christmann, & Fedorchak that this is unacceptable!  less

In Support of Freedom of Speech and In Support of Telling The Truth>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

             Did you catch MSNBC tonight?  (March 19, 2014)

Al Sharpton had a long segment on our Medicaid campaign. He captured how outrageous it is that Gov. Bobby Jindal is blocking health care for hundreds of thousands of his constituents—while his state tries to force down our billboard criticizing him.

Click here to watch this MSNBC segment and share it with your friends:

Sure, you might expect to hear a sympathetic take on MSNBC. But this story has earned attention from some unexpected folks too. A high-profile conservative legal scholar, Eugene Volokh, published a sharp piece in The Washington Post today about our standoff with Gov. Jindal's administration that concluded: "I expect the case to be promptly thrown out of court; and I hope [Lieutenant Governor Jay] Dardenne gets some political grief from voters for trying to suppress criticism this way."

We're working night and day to keep the heat on—not just in Louisiana but in all the Republican-led states where millions of Americans are going without the health care they deserve. This fight will continue.....

After all, as the saying goes Freedom Cannot Defend Itself, so Someone Must Defend it. 

In Support of Freedom of Speech>>>

Personally, I find it very ironic, but true to Republican Party form. They would pull a we do unto you, but you had better not do unto us--We have Freedom of Speech and the Right to Tell you what you can or can not say>>>>This Is why I am passing on this Email from MoveOn>>>

Breaking news: The state of Louisiana is suing MoveOn.org in federal court.¹ They're trying to force us to take down a billboard that calls out Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal—an aspiring presidential candidate—for denying health care to 242,000 people.

After carefully discussing the matter with our lawyers, we've made a decision: We're leaving our billboard up—even if we have to take this fight all the way to the Supreme Court.

This lawsuit is unprecedented in MoveOn's sixteen-year history. And it will take all of us to respond. Normally, we ask for folks to donate when they can—and we know that not everyone can give every time. But today, we're urgently asking all MoveOn members to step up to the plate and help with a monthly contribution starting now.

Can you donate as little as $5 a month—or as much as you can afford—to make sure MoveOn has the resources we need to defend ourselves in court and keep our work going?

Yes, I'll help ensure MoveOn has the resources to defend itself from this lawsuit while doubling down in other states where health care is on the line.

 

No, I can't right now.

We need to go all-in to fight this lawsuit. But, at the same time, we simply can't de-fund our campaigns in the other 24 states where Republicans are blocking their own people from getting Medicaid. And our other critical work needs to be maintained.

 

Without the resources we need to fight back, this legal battle could amount to a costly distraction from our real work. But on the other hand, if we can muster a full response and keep our core campaigning going, it's actually great news because:

1. We've drawn a future presidential candidate into a fight over health care—on our terms.

2. This lawsuit is completely baseless. As Tulane University constitutional law professor Keith Werhan said last week: "The government can't legally silence those who are criticizing them."²

3. The deeper the state of Louisiana takes this—and the more national press we get—the more attention we bring to the real substance. Which is that Gov. Bobby Jindal—who wants to be president someday—is denying health coverage to 242,000 Louisianans.

This is a big moment for MoveOn—and we're asking MoveOn members to dig deep right now with a monthly contribution so we can rise to the challenge. Can you chip in

as much as you can spare each month to help MoveOn during this pivotal moment?

Yes, I'll help out

.

I hope that you too also believe in Freedom of Speech as much as I do. After all, the lies that the Republicans repeat and repeat and repeat and repeat about our President Barack Obama and Various Democratic Senators and Democratic Reps and Democratic Governors--It is sad that they would sue to take down a billboard for daring to tell the Truth about a Republican Governor--with all the lies they spread everywhere from Facebook to other books to their own news network--otherwise known as Fox News.
