[move]I believe the time is NOW to eliminate ALL fossil fuel AND
nuclear power piggery! [/move]
We have the knowhow and ability to do it NOW! Business as usual
just wants to make sure we-the-people pay for it instead of the
polluting pigs that have profited from larcenous subsidies.
It's time for a Wall Street Transaction Tax to pay for a World
War 2 style, 100% transition to renewable energy.
We will have a buoyant economy, win the climate war and provide
millions of jobs that won't vanish after the infrastructure is
built the way DIRTY energy projects have "worked" for business
as usual.

President Obama if you would consider the American people over
your campaign donors, this Liberty from fossil fuels could work
and would help free people from the debt of rising energy
bills.Fossil fuels are not sustainable and you should LEAD THE
COUNTRY ON THE RIGHT PATH NOW!!!!!
About this Petition
This action is important because the health and very survival of
future generations depends on it. We must strive tirelessly to
provide a Viable Biosphere for our children. They deserve as
beautiful a planet as the one we have lived in.
It's time to reverse all this environmental trashing and get
real about the fact that sustainability is not optional for a
caring, intelligent human population. We are the caretakers of
the biosphere because we are self aware beings. It's high time
we began living up to our responsibility to be good stewards of
nature.

James Hinton is an honest man who has WON the primary. His
opponent in California is in the pocket of the banks AND
Walmart. That means his opponent, a 30 year incumbent Democrat
>:(, will NEVER vote to tax Wall Street or raise the minimum
wage! James Hinton is now representing the Tax Wall Street
Party.
James Hinton is DANGEROUS to the establishment. How do I know?
Because he is already being SMEARED as an IMMORAL ****R by the
media (do a Google search on him and you will see what I mean).
Of course it is dressed up as a "former online ****r" in faux
innocent speak without stating ANYTHING about his REAL populist
platform.
The Next New Deal
Here in California's Fifth District, you might need to look
beyond the vineyards and resorts to see that America is in fact
suffering a second great depression. Decades of free trade, war,
deindustrialization and rule by Wall Street have left too many
Americans struggling to survive.
It doesn't have to be this way. I represent the program for the
Next New Deal – the program that will make our infrastructure,
our schools, our farms and factories – and in turn our living
standards – the best in the world. I need your support.

Tax Wall Street – Not Main Street!
Wall Street caused the ongoing economic depression with reckless
financial speculation. We must rebuild federal and state
budgets, reduce the deficit, and shift finance back toward
productive capital investment. Wall Street must pay its fair
share with a 1% sales tax on stocks, bonds and derivatives.

[font=times new roman][b] Arnold Abbott ✨[/b][/font]
My name is Arnold Abbott. I'm ninety years old and I live in
Fort Lauderdale. Every week for the last 24 years, I've been
preparing food and bringing it to the park and beach to help
feed hungry people with no roof over their heads.
But this month I received three summonses for feeding those who
are homeless, and now I'm facing jail time or a $500 fine for
each "offense."
I believe anyone should be able to help their neighbors –
especially this Thanksgiving. So does Randy Mcquade, a Florida
resident who once experienced homelessness. We started a Care2
petition demanding that Fort Lauderdale stop punishing people
for feeding those who are homeless. Will you sign it?
Fort Lauderdale, FL has long been one of the hardest places to
be homeless in America. The new tight restrictions over
processes to share food with those who are hungry or homeless
are just the latest in a long series of cruel anti-homeless laws
trying to force this population out of sight.
As long as there is breath in my body, I will continue to serve
my brothers in the areas where they can be found. I'm not afraid
of jail; I spent two and a half years in war. I am afraid of
allowing a law like this to stand, and allowing city government
to take away the rights of people experiencing homelessness.
This holiday season, please consider volunteering to feed the
less fortunate in your area – and right now, please sign our
petition to let the Fort Lauderdale city leaders know that you
will not tolerate such laws that so disregard our freedoms and
basic human decency.
Thank you for your support,
Arnold Abbott
Care2 member

William Pfaff, Critic of American Foreign Policy, Dies at 86
By MARLISE SIMONS MAY 1, 2015
PARIS — William Pfaff, an international affairs columnist and
author who was a prominent critic of American foreign policy,
finding Washington’s intervention in world affairs often
misguided, died on Thursday in a hospital here. He was 86.
His wife, Carolyn Pfaff, said the cause was a heart attack after
a fall.
Mr. Pfaff, who moved to Paris in 1971, wrote a syndicated column
that appeared for more than 25 years in The International Herald
Tribune, now The International New York Times. He was a longtime
contributor to The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books and
other publications, the articles informed by his deep knowledge
of history and philosophy.
Mr. Pfaff (pronounced FAFF) also wrote eight books, which
further examined American statecraft as well as 20th-century
Europe’s penchant for authoritarian utopianism. In “The Bullet’s
Song: Romantic Violence and Utopia,” published in 2004, he
examined what drove European intellectuals to embrace communism,
fascism and Nazism.
In “Barbarian Sentiments: America in the New Century” (1989), he
argued that the United States had historically harbored
unrealistic assumptions about its benevolence in its foreign
policy, often with disastrous results. The book was a finalist
for the National Book Award. “In fresh, lucid and arresting
prose,” the citation said, Mr. Pfaff “articulates America’s
geopolitical illusions.”
He revisited the theme in his most recent book, “The Irony of
Manifest Destiny: The Tragedy of America’s Foreign Policy”
(2010).
[quote]“What has occurred since 1945,” he wrote in its
introduction, “has amounted to an American effort to control the
consequences of the 20th-century crisis in Europe and the
breakdown of imperial order in Asia, the Near and Middle East,
and latterly in Africa while maintaining that supervisory role
over the Americas first claimed by the United States in 1823”
with the Monroe Doctrine.
HTML http://www.pic4ever.com/images/301.gif[/quote]
The latest American miscalculation, he wrote, was in the Middle
East, where the United States was waging an “unnecessary and
unwinnable” war “against radical currents in the Islamic
religion.”
A soft-spoken man with the appearance of an Oxford don, Mr.
Pfaff never stopped writing, even though his health had been
declining well before his fall a week ago. In his last column,
dated April 22, written before Britain’s parliamentary elections
of May 7, he analyzed the implications for the United States and
Europe if Britain withdrew from the European Union. Other recent
articles dealt with Iran, Ukraine and the Islamic State.
Often taking a lonely stance and labeled an iconoclast, Mr.
Pfaff was attacked at times as anti-American for his
unapologetic criticism of American interventions in Vietnam,
Yugoslavia, Iraq and Afghanistan.
“He rejected the messianic illusions of successive American
administrations,” said a longtime friend, John Rielly, president
emeritus of the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. “Although
many American pundits consider him a liberal, he was in many
respects a classic Christian conservative — one who was
skeptical about liberal notions of inevitable progress and
always aware of the limitations of human activity.”
In response to critics, Mr. Pfaff would say that he regarded
himself as an American patriot
HTML http://www.desismileys.com/smileys/desismileys_0293.gif
concerned above all with safeguarding long-term American
interests and values.
His insights into European and American affairs drew many
admirers. One was William Shawn, the longtime editor of The New
Yorker, which published about 70 articles by him called
Reflections. In a letter from 1987, shortly after he stepped
down as editor, Mr. Shawn wrote, “I don’t think any other writer
has ever done anything quite like your elegant and brief
political essays,” which, he added, were “written in a literary
form of your own invention.”
“I admired those essays extravagantly,” Mr. Shawn wrote. The
letter, framed, was on display in Mr. Pfaff’s book-lined office
at his home in Paris.
The American Academy of Diplomacy, in presenting him with an
award in 2006, called Mr. Pfaff “the ‘dean’ of American
columnists and commentators, not through seniority but through
substance,” noting “his moral vision of the proper uses of power
and limits on its abuse.”
Mr. Pfaff’s columns were syndicated in Japan, South Korea,
Australia, India and the Arab press of the Persian Gulf, among
others.
“But ironically
HTML http://www.desismileys.com/smileys/desismileys_2932.gif
his
columns appeared less and less frequently in major newspapers in
the United States
HTML http://www.createaforum.com/gallery/renewablerevolution/3-200714191329.bmp,<br
/>the superpower whose policies he analyzed in tart, limpid and
critical commentary,” said Jonathan Randal, an American author
and correspondent.
Mr. Pfaff was born in Council Bluffs, Iowa, in December 1928, a
descendant of English, Irish and German immigrants. He grew up
in Columbus, Ga., where his father and uncle ran military
supplies stores. He studied literature and political science at
the University of Notre Dame, from which he graduated.
Enlisting in the Army, he served in the infantry and a Special
Forces Unit during the Korean War and afterward. He later worked
at the lay Catholic magazine Commonweal until 1955, when he left
to travel to Africa, Europe and the Middle East. He also helped
open the European office of the Hudson Institute, a
Washington-based conservative research firm.
Over time he became more pessimistic, his wife, the former
Carolyn Cleary, said. “He lashed out at America because he loved
it, but he became sadder and sadder about the nation that was so
great, yet was belittling itself. He wanted America to stay home
and fix its own country.”
Besides his wife, Mr. Pfaff is survived by their son, Nicholas;
their daughter, Alexandra Pfaff-Drouard; and five grandchildren.

Agelbert NOTE: Never underestimate the level of participation
and funding that the fossil fuel Big Oil Oligarchy is
responsible for in the portraying of Jimmy Carter as a "failed"
President. They hated him (then AND now) because he told the
TRUTH about our need to get off of dirty energy.
[quote]
Jimmy Carter’s words, said in his cardigan by the fire, are as
relevant today as ever: “Twice in the last several hundred years
there has been a transition in the way people use energy… we
must prepare quickly for a third change, to strict conservation
and to the use of . . . permanent renewable energy sources,
like solar power.”

“We must not be selfish or timid if we hope to have a decent
world for our children and grandchildren,” he continued. [I]“By
acting now, we can control our future instead of letting the
future control us.”[/i][/quote]
