She is an excellent speaker, but I think $13(I paid at the door) is a lot to charge to hear an author read from their latest book for about half an hour, and then answer redundant and often ridiculous questions.

Kudos to landing both candidates to hopefully hear their stands on the issues. It would be great to have more "spotlights" on the local campaigns to help us make informed choices.

]]> Comment on Progressives Battle for Oakland City Council Seat by Naomi http://www.aimeeallison.org/2008/05/07/progressives-battle-for-oakland-city-council-seat/#comment-237 Naomi Fri, 23 May 2008 17:02:39 +0000 http://www.aimeeallison.org/?p=61#comment-237 I have attended two candidate nights. Mr. Sullivan seems very thin on specifics, other than generic support for big development. It's easy to criticize an incumbent, since there is a long record to review. Nadel is an ethical candidate, has succeeded in many of her initiatives, is the conscience of the City Council, and I appreciate her attention to the need for an employment base in Oakland. Especially with the mortgage meltdown, the last thing we need is more unsold condos around here. Her work toward environmental cleanup in West Oakland has been good, and her efforts on traffic calming in the Harrison-Oakland corridor are bearing fruit. If you feel it is time for a change, vote for Greg Hodge instead; A vote for Sean is a vote for the speculative developers' view. I am sticking with Nancy and asking her to stand up for residents.

I am also impressed by Sean Sullivan. Nancy had not really acomplished much in her 12 years on the coucil. Time for a change Rita Vashone, I agree with you. I am also impressed by Sean Sullivan.

Everyone is happy, Jason dies in a war so he can feel like hero, the rest of us build a peaceful society without his interference and all ends well. Let's get on it, go join Jason do your part.

First of all, the Pentagon pays people to post these lie filled kinds of posts as part of the Military's Psychological Warfare AGAINST Americans, you can Google "Pentagon News Media Propaganda" to read on it, for those who are into reading and being informed. Jason is just cheerleader who wants other people to put themselves in harms way to kill other people, his support stops at writing message board posts and putting a bumber sticker on a gas guziller. Jason is a coward who talks about the world coming to an end without the Military killing everyone who's not like him, he can't provide any proof, he can't tell you when or how his doom day plot happens, but he's positive that you need to die or get your legs blown off trying to stop something he can't prove will happen while he sits at home and types on his keyboard about how unpatriotic people who have been in Iraq, and are honest about the useless murder that is being commited by the US there, are. Jason and those who feel like him are free to die for what ever cause they feel necessary, they can also pay for it with their own money if they truly feel it is that important - but when people like Jason demand that you and your kids need to go the front lines of killing people who have done nothing to the US so you can be killed as well while he sits at home and judges those that don't agree with him, them Jason needs to shut up until he personally bleeds and needs to have his mouth and fingers shut for him if he decides to take it further. These war lovers are real tough talking about the Fraud about Terror, something that is a complete fabrication of white people just like Jason sitting on their rear ends watching their stock portfolio go up as people in Iraq's bodies pile up. The whites never care about the people they need to kill to get what they want, starting with the Native Americans as far as the US goes - when they go into poor neighborhood schools to sell mostly minority and poor white kids on the idea they should die so that billion dollar oil companies and weapons makers can make more money and send their kids to Harvard and Yale, you can thank Jason for that. Anyone can sit at a keyboard and write "Thank a vet" and "Terror will kill us all unless we kill them all first" then show you how much they don't believe what they just wrote by never putting themselves in harms way, only to demand that you go or send your kids to go. I'd like to see the day that people like Jason are beaten up for saying things like what he wrote, when people make the connection that their family members would never had died for a lie if it wasn't for people like Jason. When Jason has to pay a cost for saying the things he just wrote, he'd shut his mouth quicker than anything - but since he pays no cost he just transfers it to those stupid enough to believe what he writes (unlike himself) he'll continue to write and state it. When you see a punk like Jason wagging his finger at people who are actively stopping the funneling of kids into his war machine to save them the trama of killing innocent people for no reason and losing a leg for instance for whom Jason's false claims won't do anything for, bend that finger back on him and remind them that they are free to go and hopefully be killed and pay for it with their own money if they truly believe what they say, no one else is and they can't have a free shot at brainwashing our kids at school to how "Cool and Fun" war is so Jason can sit at home and wag his finger at people. Go die Jason tell us how fun it all was send us a post card from the front lines, but both you and I know you're lying because it's better to send others to die over things you'd never get up and die for. Coward, coward, coward, sniveling murderous coward - can't wait until we get physical with people like you. Laugh now but God has a plan and He won't allow the wicked to reign forever - you'll cry when God holds you accountable for the lives lost over the lies you just wrote, if you don't repent before then it'll be too late and your tears won't stop the burning - it's funny to deny it when you're not there but Hell lasts forever and the thing that stings the most is that you could have avoided it by putting aside your wicked ways, pride, and lies - but if you end up there you know you just refused to given all the chances you had. You're right in one way though, Terror is the worlds problem and the number killer and promoter or Terror through out the last 120 years has been the US led by white people just like Jason, it's time Americans turned the guns on the real enemy purged the country of them and had a new relationship with the rest of the world so our future could be secure - or you can kill everything you are terrified by like Jason wants and get killed because you're just a danger to have around, think about it a paranoid psycho who thins everyone is out to get him running around fearing for his life with a gun shooting everyone because all he sees is Terror in every corner, everywhere is a threat all in his head, how soon do you think it would take for everyone else around him to shoot him dead? So Jason's says Terror needs to be the driving force for this country full of weapons and your kids are the ones he wants up in front of his strategy getting shot at for hte ideas he promotes while he's way in the back sitting at home. Solutions simple put Jason in the front and see how long it takes him to abandon his "Kill 'em all, rah, rah, rah" strategy and make peace.
