JFK: "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

Seems the first case is "off the table"

Here in TN the only Dems we have are blue dogs
except, maybe, Steve Cohen, who is first term and seems not corrupted yet

Is it time?

Do we have the guts?
and the wits?

When will we know it is time?

6. You want to be in the revolution in Guatemala? My SIL can't wait to leave there.
She's anxious to move back to Chile where it's safer.

7. Really? Tell me more

These sailboat people seem to be very happy there

Now, I know the govt there has not treated the indigehous people there very well
and they are ready to get their due
But, I am politically on their side in my heart
and plan to remain neutral on the surface
and will have the means to leave on short notice should things heat up
straight down the river

This is the same Chile that's still reeling from Pinochet, no?
Milton Friedman economics left the place in the hands of the rich
somewhat moderated now, but.............Escape Artist reccomends it highly
