The criminals in charge keep pushing the United States down that slippery slope towards fascism. I’m sick of it. I’m new to political activism – I’d rather spend my time painting. Unfortunately, if current trends continue we’ll be living in a totalitarian hell-hole within my lifetime.
I have an English degree (creative writing really), and I’m a lover of American Literature from the Romantic Period. I’m a part-time professional artist and illustrator (private collections, packaging, magazines, and game concept art), but my day job is far less sexy. I enjoy philosophy, poetry, visual art, and … I refuse to stay quiet as the current administration wipes their asses with my individual rights. That’s more than enough of an intro.
With this blog I’m going to be pushing my own progressive agenda. I’m not planning on rivaling the fantastic blogs that are already out there (see sidebar for some great ones), but I’m going to do my damned best to add my individual voice to the growing chorus.
If you haven’t yet, read Thom Hartmann’s 10 Steps to Restore Democracy to America. It’s a great summation of where America should be heading.
Thanks for reading.
Feeding now…
It has been a pleasure meeting you and I enjoyed your art on your board.
Unfortunately, I will not be posting at Thom’s board anytime soon. It seems I was not only banned but also my IP address is not allowed to visit even to look.
They were right that I am Ronald Rutherford and most closely defined as Libertarian. My blog is http://rdrutherford.blogspot.com/
And I hang out and am friends with more conservatives. But if you want to give me a line my email is rdrradio1-at-msn.com
Before you arrived there was quit a fight and discussion about censorship and IMHO the censors won the day.
I hope that I was able to help in some small way.
Good luck.
