CAMPAIGNS, ELECTIONS

Voters express worry, anger, frustration

Whether you listen to a Republican or a Democrat now, they all say the same thing, which is nothing.

We're giving away the store to the wealthy.

Greens Win 1/4 of 2005 Races In Which They Competed

After GOP scandals and weak Democratic leadership, Greens expect 2006 to be a good year for alternative party growth.

Green Beats Castle
Oct. 29, 2005
Some day the headline "Green Beats Castle" may be true in the political arena. Today, I can definitely say its true on the local running scene:

Imagine my surprise when, after signing up for the Mental Health Association 5K at the Riverfront, doing my several miles warm-up, changing into my racing shoes, doing a few sprints to feel fast and ready, and then lining up for the race, who should appear in the crowd of runners, but Mike Castle. I've seen him jogging near Rockford Park and I knew his wife, Jane, was more serious about her running, but, unlike Tom Carper, I had never seen Castle in a race.

In all fairness, Castle is basically a fitness jogger, not a racing enthusiast. So when the results were in after the race, I had finished ahead of him by 10+ minutes. I was more interested in besting Henry Gunther, the other guy in Castle's age group (65-69), who took off ahead of me, took me two miles to catch and who was only 18 secs. behind me at the finish. Since there were not that many in the race, Castle actually came in second in his age group and won a prize. As he collected it, he turned to Henry and me and said "Don't worry. I'm no threat to you guys."

"No," I was thinking, "but some day soon the Green Party will be a threat to you."

By the way, in case anyone is wondering: No, I did not confront Castle in any way. If I had known he was going to be there, I would have pinned an appropriate note to my shirt, such as "No War" or "U.S. Out of Iraq," which I have done on occasion. But I don't consider racing venues, where everyone is out supporting a charitable cause, the appropriate time to get confrontational about politics. However, I thought it ironic that any of over 100 people could walk up and talk to him about the weather or whatever, but only four people could meet, not with him as anticipated, but a young aide to talk about ending the war in Iraq at his office.

Frieda Berryhill: Nuclear Power (;-/) :: Solar Power! (:->)

Current

. . News Ticker . . .

The cover story of the latest issue of Green Pages details how the Florida Greens are working with other anti-nuclear activists to prevent the licensing of three new reactors. With a pro-nuclear President in the White House, it’s critical that Greens work with activists around the country to defeat the idea that the answer to climate change is additional nuclear reactors.

In From Hopenhagen to Nopenhagen Brian Tokar of the Institute for Social Ecology states “After the 2007 climate summit in Bali, Indonesia, the Bush administration tried to initiate an alternate track of negotiations on climate policy that involved only a select handful of the more compliant countries … Now that the Obama administration has adopted essentially the same approach …”

Also included are articles on the upcoming mid-term elections and obituaries for Bob Long and Dennis Brutus. As always; read, comment, distribute.

About the logo on the cover illustration

With radiating waves, a skull and crossbones and a running person, a new ionizing radiation warning symbol is being introduced to supplement the traditional international symbol for radiation, the three cornered trefoil.

The new symbol is being launched today by the IAEA and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to help reduce needless deaths and serious injuries from accidental exposure to large radioactive sources. It will serve as a supplementary warning to the trefoil, which has no intuitive meaning and little recognition beyond those educated in its significance.
