How to Liberate America from Wall Street Rule

Posted on July 31, 2011 by iwilder

The Duke and Duchess of Peace have devoted their lives to working for nonviolence and a world without war.

Peter Yarrow as apologist on Tim DeChristopher trial

Posted on July 29, 2011 by iwilder

Peter Yarrow’s article about Tim DeChristopher gets a lot right, and a lot wrong.   Yarrow rightly pins the blame squarely on President Bush for wrongly scheduling auctions to sell off mineral rights for protected land Then Yarrow veers off track, both factually and morally.  His misdirection is based on his inability to  pin the […]

Obama is NOT “Caving” to Corporate Interests

Posted on July 26, 2011 by iwilder

Those accusations are wrong. The accusations imply that Obama is on our side. Or was on our side. And that the right wing is pushing him around. But the evidence is clear that Obama is an often-willing servant of corporate interests — not someone reluctantly doing their bidding, or serving their interests only because Republicans […]
