6. But the rich and powerful protect one another... |
|
The "haves" in this world don't bother with national boundaries. Their sole "brotherhood" or "sisterhood" is that of wealth, greed and power. So the Canadians attending what I expect was a lame speech by Darth "we hope he dies soon" Cheney are among Canada's "haves". They consider the matter of torture, no-bid contracts, etc. as their birth rights as the wealthy and powerful. Until we have revolution and overthrow the current system the people are powerless. I am not an advocate of violence or extreme measures but as the founding fathers found in the late 18th century, sometimes the only way to effect change is through violent uprising. I hope we can find a way forward in our democracy without it...that we can prove that representative democracy can triumph but I fear we are too far gone for that to work.

7. If anything epitomizes |
|
as you put it 'too far gone to find a way forward in our democracy' I would suggest it is the collective acts we see here of celebrating Dick Cheney and then the 20 October act that we will more than likely see of Canadians celebrating George Bush....
Great footage of actions by the people.
