1. Thanks for that Alan, I had forgotten about Ms. Banfield the other day. 🙁

2. Very good.

   And it is still going on.

   Montel just lost his show after FOX did not renew it after he went on air to talk about Heath Ledger, and he instead talked about “5 dead Heath Ledgers in Iraq” and basically went off on them.

   He was not invited back after a hurried “We must go to a commercial” which cut off his speech.

   Google it – its on youtube etc…

3. Edit:
   The Montel segment made it into your video – Congratz!

   It just happened a few days ago…

4. Does anyone else have the feeling like….Who the Fuck am I going to vote for? (followed by screaming in the streets)
   I simply don’t see any candidate dealing with the culture of corruption (Amurkans), peak oil/war(or peak food), or the economy on any scale that may make a actual difference. I’m stickin’ with: none of the above.

5. OTG #4, when in doubt do what I do, vote for an upper midwest Democrat. I’m from there and the people up yonder have a pretty damn good sense about these things.
   Wellstone happened
   Ellison happened
   Eugene McCarthy happened

   We might just be surprised

6. Since no elected official ever does what they say they will do while campaigning, I suggest voting for who the person is, how they live their life, what they have done up until now. That is, IMHO, the best indicator of what they will actually do once in office.

7. Linda@6
   Your formula led me to John Edwards. I will write him in.

   But in listening to Republicans on NPR today, they are are having to do the same thing in comparing McCain, Huckabee and Romney. It seems to me that whether you are Dem or Republican, you end up holding your nose in the voting booth. It is really, really a stupid state of affairs.

8. Yep Linda that’s the damn good sense that I was talking about

9. Are you folks getting your info on candidates from the MSM? There is one candidate that is For the People that you have mentioned about as often as MSM is allowed to – Ron Paul.

10. Naw Sal, mine came from wiki

11. Well done Alan; for those who wish to really understand how we are ‘shaped’ please visit:

12. Turn “them” off and try meditation. 15 minutes at least twice a day. Scares the shit out of “them.” The chinese were throwing people in jail for it.

13. #Will do Ancient..I’m serious. Have already stopped looking at tv except for Amy Goodman and occ. Jon Stewart. It truly sucks. May Montel Williams go on to better things like Bill Maher. Wasn’t wild about the format of politically incorrect. Like the new show better. Oh..that is another one I watch. Saw 3 huge wild turkies walking up my yard today. Have noticed the snow is sparkling like diamonds with the ice now. Some things work out for the best. If tv hadn’t taken such a nose dive..I’d still be looking at it.

14. And we don’t think Fascism is here yet!

15. Hey Molly, I’ve got a flock of turkeys around too!

16. It’s about time. Thanks for this. Tell people about this. The cold war is over and the corporations have won. Some of us recognize Fascism when we see it, and some of us have bothered to look it up in the dictionary, and we know we have it here and now.

    As for who to vote for, it’s dismaying to see so many comments here that are shaped by the very MSM forces that the video is trying to make us aware of.

    The MSM always makes it out to be about what “person”, what “candidate” we are electing to be president, totally glossing over the fact that really it is all about what PARTY we are electing to be in control of the executive branch of the federal government–one third of the federal government with the power to veto legislation, start unnecessary wars, decide who runs the FCC, the FDA, the EPA, etc. etc.

    Please remember that it’s all about which party you are electing. God help us if you decide to throw your vote away by stupidly writing in someone who isn’t running anymore and thereby enable a yet another “Corporatist-fascist-Republican” government to steal yet another election.

    Writing for the love of truth, until they come for me…
