There are people who get up every day, work a 9 to 5 and go home to their families trading their
lives for varying degrees of cash. In my view, though clearly not theirs, they are selling their
lives very cheaply. These are wage slaves and the difference between people like that and a zombie
is generally lost on me. Do you realize that many, I'm not saying all or even most, of the Linux
supporters are like this, they have never coded anything in their lives, have never even played a
video game, in fact the only reason they are supporting Linux is because it is a cause and their
life lacks one. That is an incredibly sad group of folks, and I wonder what their reaction will be
when they finally understand they are supporting software and not the second coming.
GREENS TO DEMS: END THE OCCUPATION, BRING THE TROOPS HOME NOW
"The Whole World is Watching"
Green presidential candidate David Cobb today challenged the Democrats on the eve of their national convention to join the Green Party in calling for an end to the U.S. occupation of Iraq.
"John Kerry claims that he was deceived by the Bush administration and the U.S. intelligence community into supporting the unprovoked invasion of Iraq. Yet Senator Kerry chose to ignore reports from United Nations weapons inspectors, international outrage over the planned U.S. invasion and the millions of Americans who took to the streets opposed to the invasion.
"It is time to bring the U.S. troops home now. Their presence is opposed by a majority of Iraqis and is fueling political instability and widespread and continuing resistance. U.S. troops don't belong in Iraq any more than Dick Cheney's Halliburton does. Every day, more U.S. soldiers and more innocent Iraqi civilians are dying.
"The whole world is watching to see what the Democrats will do in Boston. They can either distinguish themselves as a true opposition party or can continue as accomplices to the agenda of the radical right-wing Republicans.
"The Green Party has consistently opposed this deadly and disastrous invasion. The Cobb-LaMarche campaign offers the voters of this country a genuine alternative and we are proud to present a foreign policy based on international cooperation, diplomacy and the protection of human rights," said Cobb.
Cobb will be making campaign appearances in Boston on July 25, 26 and 27 for forums, rallies and protests timed to coincide with the Democratic National Convention. Cobb's running mate, Pat LaMarche, will be in Boston from July 26- July 28. LaMarche will be speaking at a rally to protest the placement of a Bio-Terror Lab in the heart of Boston on Wednesday, July 28.
