03/20/2004: "Happy Spring Peace Day!"
Spring Equinox, A World Day for Peace. What a wonderful combination! I visualize the universe assisting the gatherings of many in rebirthing this world into a society of peace during this special time in Mother Earth's natural cycle of spring. Dennis Kucinich is speaking in New York City today about his plan for a U. S. Department of Peace. Last year on this day, Dennis addressed the National Newspaper Association About the U.S. Invasion of Iraq (click more to read on)
Here in Taos there are prayer circles, equinox dances and the toppling of a statue of Donald Rumsfeld. Two weeks ago I went to an Act Coalition meeting who was planning the toppling and asked what they had in mind as a positive vision after the toppling. I suggested a Dept. of Peace sign, perhaps? They listened and even contemplated the idea in the midst of their excitement about the statue before glossing over, which I took as a wonderful sign! People are open to "buy-cots" instead of "boy-cots"! Let's put our energy into living the change we wish to see in the world without giving most of it away to what we don't want. Focus on the solution, not the problem....anybody interested? Call us!!!
Dennis Kucinich, 3/20/03 "This is a sad day for America, the world community and the people of Iraq. These are offensive, not defensive attacks, and they are in violation of international law. For the past year I have led the effort in the House of Representatives to challenge the Administration's march to war in Iraq. I have used my voice and my vote to try to help avert the tragedy of this immense diplomatic failure and this departure from morality in world affairs. I have used every legal and legislative resource available to me to challenge this war. This culminated in 126 Democrats, nearly two thirds of the Democratic caucus, voting against the Iraq resolution last October."
GO DENNIS!!! CHANGE THAT DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM TO ONE THAT SERVES THE PEOPLE!!!
