Todd Beeton of the Courage Campaign covered last Saturday afternoon’s event in Los Angeles, which I hosted. It featured such luminaries as Gore Vidal, Debra Bowen, Maxine Waters, Bob Fitrakis and other heroes of democracy and was sponsored by SoCalGrassroots.org, VelvetRevolution.us, California Election Protection Network and Progressive Democrats of America.
Beeton did a terrific job, methinks of covering the event. But perhaps that’s because he said nice things about me. I dunno. Check it out!

Sounds like an inspiring event. And you deserve all the nice things people say. Even squeemish people like me find it hard not to say good things about what you have been doing and continue to do. Its good to see you back but will be pleased when its no longer a must and we can all just send you fan mail.
Damn! Where’s the video and/or audio?!
Great article — but I wanna see it!
You think voting in America is bad- it is but it is bad everywhere- GERMANY for instance…
I am in Germany and look around and wonder what year it is. To me it looks somewhere between 1945 and 1975 with some cheap chinese stores lining the streets selling crap. TODAY the NAZI party, yes there is an official NAZI party in Germany won 7% of the vote where I live and now have seats in Parliment. It is a disgrace to our VETERANS that help to win world warII that Germany allows and gives recognition to a party who’s sick motto, to arrouse people is “WE SAY WHAT YOU ARE THINKING” how evil is that. I think the devil himself couldn’t say it better. Please do something about this-people. Germany should be banned the World Trade Orginization and we should cut off all imported food to these people who would allow this sickness a voice in the government(AGAIN) and give them a national stage once again. Hate of foreigners is on the rise here and their treatment is subhuman. You should see the way the keep the people immigrating from war torn countries seeking asylum- it is beyond, beyond. It seems not much has changed here in the minds of the people and all of the reprisals from world war II seems to only have breeded more hate and bitterness. For the sake of the AMERICAN men and women that died in WWII, please get this to someone in the American government or media that can do something about this. It is one thing for these people to have bad apples among them(we all do) but to give them a national political party and allow them to post signs publicly in view of children is severe endangerment and utterly incompetent on the part of these people. The Russians left and since Americans are busy with war it appears the Germans think they can do what they want. Who knows next thing they might be putting foreigners like me in concentration camps again, if they (the NAZI’s) are allowed to exist, we are all in DANGER. Didn’t they learn their lesson after the first two wars? Apparently not. Again please make the American people aware of this element of evil inside the German Governmnet that now hold a percentage of power here. I don’t think on AMERICAN would buy one BMW or one MERCEDES if they knew the German governmnet supported and was partially run by NAZI’s still to this day in 2006? I though this was a thing of the past but apparently we are in a time warp here in more ways than one.

Gore Vidal is a classic. How will we get by without these brave oldsters with perfect minds!
Keith Olberman gave another beautifully crafted “special comment” about Bush’s horrible press conference. Look for it!
Larry: Keith Olbermann, patriot
Couldn’t find it on YouTube yet, but Crooks & Liars has the video.

What makes you think that Americans will be horrified by the evil within the German government when the evil within our own White House is revered by half of the country?
Strange days on planet earth.
Adam,
Thank you for your comment & for telling us of the situation in Germany. I’ve seen nothing in the press here about it, but then our press barely covers our own terrible situation.
There are madmen in both our governments, maybe in all governments. Our hearts are with you. God help us on this crazy planet.
Thanks Brad for the coverage. Inspiring. Next best thing to being there. Any word on RFK Jr. lawsuit? Hope it’s not going the way of the Fitzgerald investigation. Railroaded by our USA brand of the Nazi party.
Yeah, I’m with Molly. What going on with the RFK, Jr., lawsuits against the voting machine companies. Time is running out. I thought “Gonzo” was suppose to make a decision within in 30 days (I think 30 days has come and gone.)on whether he is going to do something about it (yeah, right), or let Kennedy go forward with it. Anyone have any new info?
Mary. I think it was 60 days, and El Torturador can ask for another sixty to decide if he’ll take the cases…. So it’ll be a miracle if we see it before election day. Just gotta hope.
this article made me feel a lot better today.
(FBI massively increasing agents assigned to corruption in government)
RAM – There were lots of video cameras there. I expect portions of the program to be available online shortly.
OTHERS – Re: RFK Jr.’s suit. There should be some news and info about that coming by week’s end as I understand it. More details when I’m allowed to give ’em to ya!
Brad:
Thanks for the update on RFK’s lawsuit. Will continue to wait for more breaking news.

All governments in all countries seem to be in a controling mood. Freedom is not something any of them seek in the 21st century!
Hi Adam! I’m across the border from you, in the Czech Republic. In this fair land you can be sent to jail for raising your right arm and shouting “Sieg heil!” Where is the balance?
