Hello - anyone out there?
It's hard to believe I haven't posted since January, but life does get crazy sometimes. Unfortunately, there always seems to be much material I could write about if I could be more "disciplined", I guess.
Today, though, I am angry enough to post. I am angry that Congress (especially Democrats who were more afraid of a veto than concerned about civil liberties) expanded the scope of warrantless wiretapping. I don't understand why they cave in to a President who has no respect for the checks and balances of our Constitution, our civil liberties, or the common people, period. I am angry that no one seems outraged. Wake up, people!
Then I received an e-mail of this article and felt I had to post the link and urge everyone to read it. Maybe it will cause someone who had been unaware or unconcerned to be more alert and active.

This blog discusses issues of social justice (in an inclusive sense), civil liberties, human rights, other social issues, and offers thoughts on society and humanity in general from a progressive, feminist perspective.
