Green Party

I am very disappointed that on a Progressive forum that I would be banned because I made the comment that both parties lie. They didn’t tell me why I was banned but reading the rules it said that one must not critize a Democratic Candidate. I get the point if one is a Democrat they are not allowed to speak the truth and say both parties are corrupted.

Yes, the Republicans are more corrupted but the Democrats are too. Who sponored the conventions? If the Democratic Party was as honest as apple pie why hasn’t the Democratic Congress started impeachment hearings for Bush/Cheney? Why do they continue to give in and instead of doing what is best for the American people, they do what is best for corporate America?

Both Candidates have lied. McCain has lied, and Obama has lied. When he said he would stand up against Fisa and then voted for it, that was a lie. So because I am honest and say I have seen lies from both campaigns I get banned? I am very honest and I am sorry if the truth doesn’t mean anything to either of the mainstream political parties anymore in this country.

I just noticed that in Arizona that we can now join the Green Party so I think I just may do that. It seems there is no place in the Democratic party for honesty and speaking the truth that you find both parties guilty of misrepresentation of the facts.

Both parties have failed us. I am voting for the Constitution of the United States. Have the two main parties really stood up for the Consitution or have they allowed it to be ripped to threads all in the name of security?

Frankly, there are many Americans like myself that have a hard time trusting either the Republican or Democratic parties with all the crap that has gone on. There are many Americans who see both parties as part of the problem and not the solution. There are many Americans who worry that our political process is but a sham and that our votes don’t really count anymore. Many Americans don’t feel that it is even worth voting anymore because they feel like the people in government do not represent them but represent the large corporations.

I love my country. My Ancestors fought in the American Revolution. They were part of building this country. I am a Daughter of the American Revolution and I have a deep love for my nation. Frankly I am ashamed of what both parties have done. Oh, but that is right, one must not speak the truth because the truth doesn’t mean anything in America today.

People think I am stupid, but I am not stupid. I heard on the radio yesterday that American voters do not know as much about our government as they should. Did you know that only one in seven people know the 3 branches of government? I know them. Excutive, Legislavie and Judical. I just can’t spell very good. There also many Americans can’t even name their state Senators. Mine are McCain and Kyle. They also said that many Americans can’t name one Supreme Court Judge. There is Kennedy, Sandra Day O’connor, Anthony Sclia,(sp). Our country has been dumbed down enough that they fall for the trickery and vote not because of substance but because of slogans. An yet I am the one who is considered stupid because I don’t have a fancy college degree but for the most part have had to teach myself. Yet, I am one out of the seven Americans that has some basic knowledge of government.

I still have time to change my party before the election so since the Democrats do not believe one can still be a Democrat and be honest about our shortcomings as a party with the hope of trying to change things so that we take our party back for the people than I will join the Green party. Since the Democrats want little robots like the Republican party than it is time for those of us who believe in truth, justice, and doing what is right to leave the Democrats to fall the same way as the Republican party.

Green party here I come. Good bye to the Democrat party. You want to try and silence truth than you will force those of us who believe in truth to leave and not vote Democrat. Lucky for me I have Green Party Candidates that I can vote for on the ballot in AZ. I just joined the Green party so now I can honestly say I am no longer a Democrat.

Dear Mike,

Thank you for your kind comment. I even found a green party forum that seems lilke it has a lot of good info. I notice they even have meetings once a month in Phoenix so I may check it out.

Today has been a rough day. I quit smoking and I am fighting that urge, plus being shown that there is no place for honest debate in the Democratic party, and just feeling like the faith I had in our govenment was all for nothing. I feel like everything I believed in about our givernment is a lie. I was talking to a friend and she was telling me that all of them lie. That there is not one honest politican in Washington and that there is nothing we can do to take this country back. Here I have been deluding myself that yes there is something that we can do if we have the will as Americans to take this country back. Maybe I am the stupid one Mike for still believing the words that President Kennedy said that each one of us could make a difference and that Public Service was an honorable profession. I look to Washington and the two major parties today and I don’t see truth or honor.

It is good to know that at least people in the Green party still believe in truth, justice, peace and what is morally right and are willing to fight for it and stand up to corruption in our government and try and fight for the future of this country.
