Brian, the care that veterans receive vary from place to place, but on the whole, once you are no longer a tool to be used you are thrown away -- i.e., the cases of our current crop of veterans who have permanent head damage who have to fight to get…

It's really much simpler than that. Orders are cut, military personnel and supplies are loaded onto transport, and everyone and everything ships out. Either that, or we leave Iraq and Afghanistan the same way we left Vietnam -- in panic, disorder, a…

Thing is, the military follow orders. Oh, sometimes like naughty sheep, they stray outside the fence, but not for long. They answer to civilian authority, and civilian authority is owned, as we know, by corporate interests, whose interests are "perp…

Abby, Maybe, but the military is so strained right now they may not want to

Love the idea, but do you honestly think that the military industrial complex and the DOD won't find another war somewhere else? Bill Nerin for Pres -- yeah, and will brian be your running mate?

Thank you Brian for your comment. The only problem with running for President is that I would be the oldest one in history and the VP would soon take over and I don't relish Sarah as my sidekick. Ho hum.

You, sir, are a mutha******* genius. Bill Nerin for President, 2012.

Here's how we do it. We know that Karzai is exceedingly open to receiving under the table money. So Obama decides to offer a bribe to Karzai so attractive that he can't pass it up. It is lots of money and an offer for him and family and close frien…

The election of Barack Obama has proven that left or right, black or white, politicians are all the same.

Edward, tried to find Hudson's writings on Wall St. -- unsuccessful. Can you give me a time frame or the full title so that I may search more effectively? Thank you.

Practically Obama's first act was signing on to the Bush-Paulson saving of capitalism from itself. He's a corporate stooge, and anyone who didn't know it didn't listen.

Florindo, Google Tikkun magazine and the cover story Is "Has Obama Abandoned You" is in the latest issue

Do you have a link to that article, Bill?

Abby, have you ever read economist Michael Hudson's writings on the Parasitic Nature of Wall Street ?? -- check out CRG Editor aka Global Research -- their stuff is great !! (I'm in Frank Siwiec's Central Jersey Nation Discussion Group)

Mark, they stormed the Bastille, but, alas, as Edmund Burke predicted it descended into the reign of terror.... We, on the other hand, still have to storm Wall St. Silly comment, but it's late in the evening....

My Lab, Daphne, obviously wants to get in on the conversation. Even she is a progressive realist.

We have a great Nation discussion group which meets the 3rd Wed of each month. We have 16 members, our maximum number and one on the waiting list.

I am thrilled with this opportunity to connect with other Nation readers. I hope we can do some actions together somehow.

How to get out of Afghanistan

Here's how we do it.

We know that Karzai is exceedingly open to receiving under the table money. So Obama decides to offer a bribe to Karzai so attractive that he can't pass it up. It is lots of money and an offer for him and family and close friends to reside for the rest of their lives in the US with guaranteed safeguards if he so chooses. For this bribe all Karzai must do is to declare that all foreign troops must leave Afghanistan within 6 months for the sake of peace.

Then the Nobel Peace… Continue

Who's disappointed in Obama?

Recently I have noticed several articles about people being disappointed in Obama and how he is slipping in the polls.

Well, I must say I don't have a feeling of being so disappointed. I feel somewhat sorry for him breaking so many campaign promises for I did want him to succeed but I felt all along he would not deliver, or perhaps he could not deliver even if he wanted to. I guess I have just accepted from the get-go that big money controls both Parties and the media; and that Nader called the… Continue

Your comment on my blog - BN

I could not agree more with you on my blog-essay. The only way I could imagine people doing more than blog or complain is to petition the Nation members on this website if they would want to work on this.

The first action would be to contact leaders of other progressive movements to see how many of their members would be ready to work.

The second action would be to form a site whereby we could all communicate with each other to figure out a program of action.

We must find those who are willin… Continue

CAN HISTORY TEACH US ANYTHING ABOUT TODAY?

We just celebrated our revolution seeking independence from England.

As we know from history it was independence mainly for the benefit of male landowners since our Constitution only gave them the right to vote and thus control the laws of the land. As James Madison said at the time, "to protect the minority of the opulent from the majority." Madison believed that only the wealthy landowners had the capability to do what is right for the rest of the citizens of the new Nation.

However, they al… Continue
