Pharmaceuticals, dang it, GUEST Paula. Geeeeeze. Man, do I gotta break in another GUEST that don't talk Wes Ginny?!?...

And whatz with the Repub. remark, anyway. That one kind went over my head. Republican? Hmmmmmmmm?

Now, back to Greens fir just a couple of thoughts. I know that it ain't easy changing a system that seems to be owned lock, stock and barrel by the "ruling class" but it's not impossible either. After all, it does come down to ideas and solutions, and the Dems ain't got any. So if enough folks who really do care about the direction of the country bolt and join forces with the Greens, and bring their talents, their ideas and their passion with them, then slowly the Green Party will get some respect.

I agree that at present, becuase many, many factors the Green Party is back on it's heels but that is a reality that we accept. Success isn't entirely baout winning elections but in putting forth alternative ideas. At some point in time, the working class will be fed up and when that happens we need a party ready and willing to stand up to Boss Hog. And after what we've seen over the last decade, that ain't the Democratic party, which has now been demoted to *sparring partner*.

So if you Dems want to just work harder as Dems, fine. It's your choice. As fir me, it seems like giving a transfusion to a dead man.

It is my *opinion* that the Green Party just became the 2nd party in a two party system so... come on over. Or if ya' can't get there yet, think about it.
