For those of you who have had it with this site, you can try caucus99percent.com but for now it appears so many are coming over that the place is overloaded. I’m sure it’ll be fixed soon so if you can’t get in, don’t give up on the idea.

I believe President Obama needs to be blunt about the out of control police departments across the country, about how they target minorities, about how they're power happy and trigger happy.

It made me think of the phrase "Profile in Courage", from JFK's book. One of the most important roles that the President plays, or should play, is that of a leader, not just this current craze for military stuff, the Commander in Chief business, but a moral leader. The President should tell us what's what, honestly, as I believe JFK did in 1963, as you'll see if you click on the video on the other side of the squiggle

I've been waiting and waiting for Darren Wilson to be indicted for the murder of Michael Brown.

I understand that the DA might not go that route but I also don't like the postponement of the decision. It has felt like a deliberate attempt to wait until we've forgotten.

And now....

Did you know that no Republican holds a major statewide office? The only Republican of note is Greg Walden, who represents the tumbleweed district that hooks on to Nevada and points east.

The other members of Congress are all Democrats. Our two Senators are Democrats. The Governor, the Secretary of State, the Treasurer....all Democrats.

Recently there was this small financial scandal among what's left of the Oregon Republican Party and the Chairperson, Suzanne Gallagher, has been forced to step down, leaving the door open for...

We are unable, as a nation, to see things from the viewpoint of other countries. We get "news" from state sponsored stations, run by five companies in what is a virtual monopoly since they all have the same agenda.

We get statements from the Administration that present only one side of an issue. We're told everything is being done to keep us safe, that we're going after those who attacked us on 9/11.

We occasionally hear somebody say we're creating new terrorists but we hardly pay any attention to that.

Well, here, beneath the "thing", is why, if we're ever attacked with a suitcase bomb (Bill Maher!) it'll be our own fault

During both of his campaigns, Barack Obama stressed that there were no blue states, no red states, only the United States of America.

He sent a signal that he would not be a partisan President, but would represent even those who did not vote for him.

For those of us who grew up in the 60s, we better make sure we're contributing to the world because, apparently, that death thing is inevitable.

I always have to laugh when the President does something horrible and says it was a decision he did not make lightly, as if he didn't actually like whatever it was he came up with.

Similarly, Senator Jeff Merkley put out a statement that's pretty much that.

Oregon Senator Ron Wyden, the not-so-liberal one, has criticized the Obama Administration, thereby causing many Democrats to reconsider their support of the President. Apparently Senator Wyden is concerned about targeting American citizens for assassination!

Mittens has weighed in the Susan G. Komen disaster. Not surprisingly he's on the wrong side. Many times I've seen our Democrats say or do something stupid but we'll never approach the Republicans.
