My last post was "Where will we find our truth?" ... Today, after the White House announced the appointment of a "Social Media Czar": I think the better question would be "Do we really want to live in a country where our top elected official openly and aggressively supports suppression of the truth?"
[And as I click "view blog" to see my post ... my browser now goes nuts with 'clicks' as an external source ("client 6") is loaded, updated or whatever? Hmmmmmmmmm ... So it begins??? ]

Maybe ... The Times Are A Changing?
One can only hope ...
Song: "The Times They Are A Changin' ", By Bob Dylan
[Yes, love the irony ... on multiple levels ... maybe it's just that we've finally come full circle?]
Victory for 'We the People' in the state of Massachusetts! Maybe this is a sign that the times are changin'?
[Note: Contact me if you want to sign the e-petition requesting that the new Senator from Massachusetts be seated immediately and I'll send you the link.]
As I've said before: INFORMATION IS POWER ... BE INFORMED ... STAY INVOLVED. I am sincerely proud of the American people today! Keep it up!
"Every government degenerates when trusted to the rulers of the
people alone. The people themselves, therefore, are its only safe
depositories. And to render even them safe, their minds must be
improved to a certain degree."
~Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia, 1782.
"Whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, the
people, if well informed, may be relied on to set them to rights."
~Thomas Jefferson to Richard Price, 1789.
President Obama had post-poned his State of the Union Address to the Congress, pending the outcome of the Senate race in Massachusetts. He's now scheduled to address the Congress on January 27th. Let's see if the President gets the message being clearly sent by the American people ... doesn't seem as if Pelosi and crew (in the Senate) have. In parting ... here's some interesting history on the State of the Union Address.
