Oh good grief I'm going to have to move .... --------------------------------------------------- If you dismissed Glenn Beck's argument for seceding from the Union as the isolated ravings of a lunatic, think again. In this video, Texas Governor Rick Perry wades into General Beck’s loony bin and declares Texas' sovereignty from the U.S, saying that the time has come to "draw the line in the sand" against the federal government. "No longer are we going to accept their oppressive hand in the state of Texas."
Gov. Perry Backs Resolution Affirming Texas’ Sovereignty Under 10th Amendment HCR 50 Reiterates Texas’ Rights Over Powers Not Otherwise Granted to Federal Government
Texas will fall even further behind other states in capturing bio tech jobs as well as progress in the fight against current incurable diseases if Sen. Steve Ogden, R-Bryan has his way. He has significant moral concerns when it comes to individual stem cells, but like most conservatives appears devoid of compassion when it comes to the suffering that millions of people, minute by minute, day by day, year after year must continue to endure.
Passed medical advances have met with similar resistance by self righteous nay sayers permanently opposed to anything that did not fit in their view of reality as dictated by their personal religious beliefs. Faith is and should always be a private matter not public policy or a substitute for scientific research.
Medical research or any scientific discoveries continue to draw vehement often violent opposition as serious as the plight of Copernicus & the persecution of Galileo.
The Dallas Morning News published an article on April 11, 2009 on the fight in the Texas Legislature stem cell legislation in Texas. Read it here and please get involved in stopping this attack on scientific research & embryonic stem cell research in particular. For more info on the promise of stem cells read & join Texans for the Advance for Medical Research or TAMR.
Please call or send an email message to your State Representative & Senator today.
GOP (Greed Over Principle) & the 911 First Responders
During his press briefing Tuesday, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters that comedian Jon Stewart may well have helped breathe new life into the prospects for passage of a health care bill for 9/11 first responders.
Has our expresident George Bush commited war crimes?
"Jim Crow Don't Really Live Here No More!"
By Tony Beaverson
This goes under the heading "The Truth Hurts," when you support Republican politicians.
As virtually everyone knows the underlying theme of SO many Republican's is racial. Thankfully, the so-called solid south for Democrats who became Republican's after the 1964 Civil Rights Act showed their true colors of ignorance and left for the narrow minded bigotry of the Republican's. And if it takes that ilk to win, so be it. The reality is the majority of Americans AREN'T bigoted, as we saw in 2008 and will soon recognize any extremist who wins in 2010, has no sense of the common good and will lose in 2012.

Last weekend, Tea Party Patriots gathered in the Capitol and showered racist and homophobic abuse on Democratic Congress Members supporting healthcare reform.
One Tea Party protester called the former civil rights leader and current Atlanta Congressman John Lewis the "n-word." Another spat on Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, also an African-American. Another called Congressman Barney Frank a "f****t." Back in his Texas district, yet another Tea Bagger called Congressman Ciro Rodriguez a "wet****."
Unlike the Tea Party Patriots, the staff at Brave New Foundation is comprised of individuals of multiple races, ethnicities, and sexual orientations. That's why news of these latest outbursts hit us personally. Here are a few reactions from members of our staff:

The Party of "NO" Republicans vs The Party of "Wimps" Democrats
Anger is spreading across this country like wildfire, all aiming at the Democrats in control. The Tea Party people want to take over this country again. My question is How do you do that? I will tell you how to do it. You do it at the polls. You vote out those who have put us in this mess. You think it the Democrats? You think this happen since Obama took Office? You wrong!! Where have you been for the last 9 years This has been going on because we have leaders who have been in office for 5, 10, some 30 terms in office. Wake up Americans the trouble is in both parties. They will never vote 2 term limits for themselves, we need to enforce it at the polls. If any Incumbent has serve more then two terms get him or her out. If you continue to elected the problem over and over you deserve what you get.Why do you think many people in Washington are quitting. "Nothing is being done" This is not good for America don't you see it!
This video is about 5 minutes long, but packs a powerful punch for a public option for health care reform. Please watch it and pass it on to your contacts.
Thanks, WANNABEBLUE
