Zounds! Is St. Patrick's Day really just beginning? Hard to believe with so much blarney and malarky going on in Congress. We need St. Patrick to come and drive out the snakes! ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood thing we have Bernie O'Sanders!
I just watched Bernie's Tuesday speech in Phoenix (link on previous thread); pretty damned good, say I! I hadn't every seen and heard him in such a long campaign speech.

I registered as a Green on St. Patrick's Day in 2005; seemed appropriate.
At one point Bernie seemed to be leading up to FDR's Four Freedoms...my heart was in my throat for a moment, anticipating it...but it didn't quite happen. I sent HQ a suggestion to work it in.

That was actually the first Bernie speech -- leaving aside debates -- that I had seen. And yes, I recognized that Bernie's two freedoms were reminiscent of FDR's Four Freedoms. But I seriously don't think we need to go back to something that was resonating in my youth. Although at one level the principles are the same, the political, economic, and social situation in FDR's time was quite different. I think it's better to concentrate on what's relevant to the 21st century.
DeleteHow Vermont beat Big Food [Click] “One state with 600,000 people and an anti-GMO streak is about to rewrite U.S. food labels. What just happened?”
ReplyDeleteTh opportunities for smugglers should be epic! I imagine someone peddling contraband Froot Loops from the back of a van on a side street… [grin]
But it IS rather amazing that Big Food should be so desperate to hold onto such a small market. Why not just stop shipping their food into Vermont and await developments? Buncha wusses, eh?

Sort of like Monsanto suing organic farmers over pollen drift from their GMO corn. . . .
DeleteNo matter how big the bad guy is, he's always insecure and needs to eliminate all conceivable threats and competition. Pretty pathetic, really.
