Our common values and goals are what unite us. At present the American electorate is deeply and bitterly divided. Poor leadership and disunity threaten to rend the very fabric of our society.
We on the left are united in agreement that our country is on the wrong track and deteriorating by nearly every measure. In order to solve the myriad problems facing us and the world, humans must move beyond war. Opposing unjust, illegal, unnecessary, and unwinnable wars is the sine qua non for human prosperity.
I rely on blogs like Booman Tribune for information, insight, and inspiration. However the standard blog format doesn’t suit my style of online posting. I prefer the bulletin board format because topics can be continued and updated over an extended period of time without getting buried in chronological order.
I posted for 4 years on The Augusta Chronicle bulletin board which is called “The Forum”. Augusta, Georgia is a bastion for southern white reactionaries. The Chronicle is a rightwing Republican rag with a tabloid editorial mentality. It is important to fight it out in the trenches of red state America, but logic and reason have not persuaded The Chronicle or their reactionary readers of the error of their hate-filled ways.
The definition of stupidity is to continue doing the same thing and expecting different results. Therefore, I have started an alternative bulletin board focusing on the Iraq war and other issues vital to progressive American denizens who take our world citizenship and our common humanity seriously. Please freep my bulletin board and spread the word. Thank you. Peace, love, and understanding is the way.
