TVNL Editor's Comments: While You are at it Ask Congress to Sprout Wings and Fly!

The efforts of the activism community have become embarrassing. Every day I receive e-mail asking me to tell Congress to vote for something that any informed decent Human being would vote for, yet every time Congress votes they vote against the wishes of their constituents. And even though Congress maintains their 100% record of ignoring their constituents the pathetic little law abiding citizen activists keeps begging. They keep marching and they keep signing petitions and they keep calling the trained ignorers working in our halls of Congress.

The latest embarrassing effort to make this nation a better place comes from a good organization called Code Pink. They are suggesting that we all write to Laura Bush and ask her to tell her husband not to start a war with Iran. I can not put into words how embarrassingly pathetic this is.

The nation has gotten away from us. It is clearly in the hands of people who have no interest in your opinion. To them America is their nation. They make the rules and we follow them. That’s it. We can yell all we want. They are not listening.

Words can no longer be considered a viable means of activism. Telling these people anything is a waste of time. We should be informing each other. We should be educating the people who do not know what is happening to our nation. We should be enlightening the people of America about the fact that their nation has been stolen. Perhaps when enough people realize what is going on in this nation they will stop supporting their enemies who now treat the nation as their own little playground. Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

QUESTION: Have you forwarded this e-mail to anyone today? Consider doing so for you will be helping to inform the people of this nation about the vital issues that are hidden from them by our corporate media. Make this nation a better place, educate, inform and enlighten your fellow citizens!

If you believe that the American corporate media are our greatest enemy let the people know how you feel.
