on edit *** Michael Moore starts at the 2:00 mark.... **

This was Michael Moore in a live feed during the Bill Maher 'Real Time' show. He volunteers to replace Rahm, sleep on a cot in the basement and take a dollar a year salary... to make sure that Obama gets up every morning and goes on the offensive. "Let's Go Get 'em!!"

*** Real Time with Bill Maher FULL SHOW LINKS ***
Below are the links to the show for those that want to check it out front to back... (above video is part 3)

Part 1 opening http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a6Nrn4JmLYo
Part 2 interview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8s4-hUC0Rnc
Part 3 show/moore http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExNgbf5zp_c
Part 4 show cont http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rtm9tc3y9CI
Part 5 show cont http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEvXOzyIYTU
Part 6 new rules http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGwycGV024s

________

** note: as always, videos on YouTube have the possibility of being pulled, so what I do is click on each to open in a new window, let it start to load and pause the video, and move on and do the same for each video in kind, in either its own tab or window. Then, when they have all started to load (slowly of course), you are pretty much sure you'll get to see the full show before any are pulled while watching it. When the first is done loading, the rest will catch up as you watch. Hope that makes sense.

11. How many times do knuckleheads need this debunked?
Just give me a number, maybe some have graduated from the knucklehood and deserve a more appropriate moniker.

24. Better to be a Nader supporter than a Lieberman shill...
Edited on Mon Mar-08-10 12:10 PM by liberation
... at least in my book.

Congratulations on topping your intellectual dishonest initial argument, with a nice ad hominem. I take that grasping at straws can be a rather stressful process?

12. What to do?
Edited on Sun Mar-07-10 07:48 PM by sulphurdunn
I would write more letters to my representatives, :freak: but they all work for Goldman Sachs and send me form letters in return. :banghead: I could hit the streets and protest, :grr: but I can't take the time off work. :scared: I could vote for the Democrats again :rofl: and I probably will, :dunce: but that won't change much. I'm open to suggestions. :shrug:

15. My rec for you--if you can, just send donations to specific candidates and/or Act Blue
and similar organizations that are working to elect real Democrats answerable to the people.

28. Show up at local Dem meetings, go to public forums and discussions
Go to your state capitol and visit with your reps and let them know why you are there.

Canvas, make calls, talk to anyone who will listen, create opportunities to engage others.

Study. Join DFA, PDA and/or other REAL Progressive grassroots efforts and participate.

Invent creative ways or steal great ideas of others and use them.

Find people of like mind and toss around ideas for action, even silly ones, and just do them.

Maybe you are one of the folks working 2 or 3 jobs, if so, I hear ya about time, it may not be possible. If not, make time. Consider doing peaceful things that seem unlike you that you would never have considered if the times were not so corrosive. I am sure I am missing a lot. We have been given much by those who came before us. Empower yourself and others, courage and confidence will grow for those who worry about those things. You are great.

14. Michael Moore again speaks for me... again.
Neither the Democratic or Republican party has anything to offer. Voting the Democratic ticket may be the lesser of two evils, but it's still an evil. Both parties have sold out.

It's time to abandon both parties to search for something better. Yes, it's going to be painful. Revolution always is. So let's get on with it, and let's get it over with.

21. We Have to INSIST On These Changes if We Are to Make Any Real Change!
Objectives

1. Make elected representatives answer to the electorate.
2. Remove corporate influence from all levels of public governance


Suggested Goals to Accomplish These Objectives

1. Publicly fund elections
2. Eliminate corporate person-hood
3. Initiate instant runoff voting
4. Eliminate electoral college
5. Ban exiting public officials from accepting lobbyist positions
6. Oversight of the Federal Reserve
7. Tax reformation
8. Budget reformation


Citizen Actions to Accomplish These Objectives

1. Strengthen and expand alternate media
2. Infiltrate existing party systems to affect changes
3. Exploit current means to pressure representatives
4. Prepare, support, and run Liberal/Progressive candidates
