You know, I think Jo really DOES have it. In her absence, which I hope is
short-lived but have a feeling is not, let us not be a bit intimidated by
those who believe they are privy to what is "truly noteworthy".
And, speaking of noteworthiness, didn't ANYONE go to the "Enough is Enough"
meeting? Was there a report in the Daily News I missed? Is the Kibbie Dome
rally still a possibility? Will it be a topic at "The Retreat"? How can we
defeat the "Evil" Boise Mayor Brent Coles has exposed if we don't have the
information/righteous weapons needed to do battle? There was so much
anticipation, build-up and expectation.
Forget about cancer, environmental degradation, toxics in our food, unsafe
highways and motor vehicles, unchecked greed and corporate heartlessness.
These aren't "killing our kids" and, according to Larry Craig, neither are
cigarettes. No my friends, Evil is killing our kids.
