Protesting McConnell-led Filibuster of War Amendments 9/21/07

After the last tree has been cut down,
After the last river has been poisoned,
After the last fish has been caught
Only then will you find
That money cannot be eaten.

Cree Prophecy

'A people living under the perpetual menace of war and invasion is very easy to govern.  It demands no social reforms. It does not haggle over expenditures on armaments and military equipment. It pays without discussion, it ruins itself, and that is an excellent thing for the syndicates of financiers and manufacturers for whom patriotic terrors are  an abundant source of gain.' 

 ---Anatole France
