Thank God for distant friends.

Pete and I have a running argument about politics. It is about the reasons for the failure of the Democrats to make their case against this awful administration. I say the points are being made, but there is little media coverage to inform the people.

Most people here do not get their news from Face the Nation, Meet the Press or PBS radio and television. Most Americans do not read the editorial pages of newspapers or do in-depth research anywhere. Most people get their news from for-profit media, at 30 second blips. I didn't hear about the testimony of George Galloway anywhere here. Did you?

Check out Dieter's Post, My New Hero, George Galloway.

Where was the coverage in our country? Take the time to listen to the testimony of George Galloway in front of the Senate. Check out Dieter's Post and take the time to play and listen to the video. You can find the text of Galloway's testimony here:

The big lies are being made every day in this country and the majority is buying it. The powers that be don’t like this man at all. British press is attacking him as well. Jeremy Paxton is a shock jock in Great Britain ... essentially calling him a racist for winning an election against an incumbent who supported PM Blair move into the Iraq war along with the US.

Once again, I can thank Dieter for informing me. It was my lucky day when I tried to learn something about Movable Type and happened upon his blog.

The liars that are in charge will attack anyone who is trying to stand firm against the Bush and Company's New World Order. I am so afraid about what is happening in the US. I am so afraid that our democracy will not survive. This administration is dangerous and even those I voted for are failing us.

I don't think we can wait for the next presidental election. This grandmother is very afraid.

Last thing I have read is that Galloway is considering touring the US for some speeches during summer. I am sure LA would be on his list.

If you hear anything about an appearance here, please let me know. I am not sure I would hear otherwise.
