Soviet California outlaws alternative political parties

With the passage of proposition 14 in California free elections are a thing of the past.  Now only Demopublicans and Republicrats will be on the general election ballot.  They did this through the deceptive trick of calling for "Open Primaries" where you can vote for any candidate in the primary regardless of your party affiliation.  It sounds like a good idea, except for one problem,  only the top two vote getters from ALL parties will be on the ballot in the general election!  This means in some areas, like San Francisco, there will be two Democrats on the ballot, or in places like Orange County it could be two Republicans, for most places there will a Democrat facing a Republican.  The two official government parties, Demopublicans and Republicrats will effectively be the only parties allowed to run for office.  Libertarians are not allowed on the California ballot.  Greens are not allowed on the California ballot.  The various right wing constitutionalist parties are not allowed on the California ballot. 

Other than voting on the proposition to legalize weed that's on this fall's ballot I am seriously considering giving up on voting in the future.  It makes about as much sense as voting in the Soviet Union did.  California now has a ONE PARTY system.  You can't tell me there is a nickles worth of difference between the two branches of the government party because there ISN'T!   Don't give me any drivel about it being my duty as a citizen to vote either, that's balderdash!   I am NOT A CITIZEN of a republic but the subject of an empire.  My only obligation is to obey the laws as long as they don't conflict with God's law.   If this were a free republic I'd vote, but since it's not... what is the point?

NBC anti-life?

I would boycott NBC, if I ever watched it that is. I actually never watch anything on the old line networks, NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX. Everything I watch is on the cable only stations... do they still broadcast over the air? Ah well, this story is about the fact that it seems NBC refused to air an ad put together by some Catholic outfit that features an embryo and all of the hardships it faced in early life ending up with the revelation that they were talking about Obama. Here is the ad , check it out and see how unoffensive it is. Like I said, if I watched them I'd quit now. :-/

Wikileaks and police state censorship

I saw an article today on SF Gate about some nit wit Bush appointed Federal Judge ordering a website I'd never heard of called Wikileaks shut down because they were publishing some bank documents from some corrupt Swiss bank. The amusing thing is that they can't actually do it! Even more amusing is that this just draws attention to the site and makes it that much more visible, yay idiot goons! :-) There are mirror sites all over the world and it's almost impossible for thuggish police state goons to figure out how to close off all of the leaks :-) One mirror site is here: http://wikileaks.be/wiki/Wikileaks The US site they tried to close down is still here: http://88.80.13.160 "Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe,...

Child Driven Education

Here is a Ted Talk with Sugata Mitra on Child Driven Education... very unschooling-like I think.  :-)  I've seen videos of him before, this is an update on his research on letting groups of kids learn on the internet, mostly without any supervision at all.  Posted via email from The Angry Gnome
