Citizens Appeals to All Parties

The Press Gets It Half-Right, Again

Unless the press is trying to promote their favored candidate, they rarely get it 3-quarters right, let alone 100%.  The Federal Way Mirror referred to the Revived Citizens Party as "so-called."  Guess what?  "Party," as in political party, doesn't necessarily mean extravagant financial holdings, or having professional politicians holding office, or being genuflected to by the media, nor even being considered "bona fide" by the state and civic powers-that-be.  Party simply means a meeting of minds gathering together for a political purpose, i.e., 2 or 1,000,000, deciding to be a party to effect politics, and perhaps participating in the electoral process.  Maybe that's not the standard official dictionary definition, but it's close, and it appears the press, in general, could benefit from actually looking at dictionary definitions.

The Mirror, having made their predictable establishment endorsement for the incumbent, also said that my campaign appeals to some Democrats -- period.  Whether that's intended to mean that some Democrats tend to like my campaign or I'm just trying to appeal to them, I'm not sure, but probably the latter.  However, I'm not trying to appeal to just Democrats, but everybody.  The title of this blog, after all, is Reliability and The Coalition, and the Citizens Party is trying to build a coalition of Republicans, Democrats, Independents and other Third Parties to join the Citizens Party in this election to defeat Adam Smith and all other comers competing against me in this race for the 9th Congressional District seat.  We're not leaving anybody out as far as normal, fairly inclusive political identifications are concerned.  Everybody knows that the only way to defeat Adam Smith is through "Citizens" this year, and that, by and large, Democrats and Republicans are not going to vote for each other.

-- Mark Greene, candidate for U.S. House of Representatives, 9th Congressional District

Post script:  Dictionary.com's definition of "party:"
A group of persons with common political opinions and purposes organized for gaining political influence and governmental control and for directing government policy.

Globalist Folly

We tried to get by without ever mentioning Colin Kaepernick's name on our blogs or websites, but the fake news media is running with the ball, so to speak, so just to let them know that their, Kaepernick's  and LeBron James' propaganda doesn't work with the Revived Citizens Party, the RCP stands as follows: Starting with multimillionaire Kaepernick's decision last year to metaphorically thumb his nose at the National Anthem, "The Star Spangled Banner," and to sit on the bench or kneel on a knee while the Anthem was playing, because he thinks America has too many faults or something like that, he became the Pied Piper of disrespecting national symbols, particularly the Anthem, apparently until the country yields to whatever his particular idea of what a nation should be is.  However, even if Kaepernick's concerns do merit some kind of national rectification, which they may well indeed, when would our natio...

Mark Greene for Federal Way Mayor

I am officially announcing for Mayor of Federal Way, today, as I was able to obtain sufficient resources to file with the Elections Department on May 18th, 2017, and able to run a full campaign until the August 1st Primary, and hopefully beyond. This All-American Relief campaign will start picking up steam around the beginning of June, as now I'm concentrating on getting about 100 signs on the ground.  Next week, I will be sending out press releases to the major publications in our area: the  Times , the  News Tribune , and the  Mirror.   For more information about this campaign of common sense philosophy and patriotic fervor, see my website and keep up with the posts on this blog, as they usually come about twice a week or more. -- Mark Greene, Official Candidate for Mayor of Federal Way Campaign Website:  ALL-AMERICAN RELIEF Campaign Blog:   FW Politics

Fool Them

Weakness and Strongness The computer put a red line under "strongness" in my subtitle.  Too bad, I like it, so I'm keeping that "non-word." Call it my invention, if you will.  You cannot imagine the emotions that welled up in me last night watching an old 1980s movie called "St. Elmo's Fire."  It's a movie that I never saw at the time that it first ran, circa 1985, but kind of watched it since then, off and on, after it aged 20 years or so, and began seeing it on television from time to time.  Last night, I came upon it about 15 minutes from the start, and watched it more closely than ever until the end.  I love the theme music, though non-lyrical, it's part of the magic of the movie, I believe.  In the 80s, I was just slightly older than the main characters in the movie.  It really brought back a lot of memories from that decade, particularly a period from the years 1980 - 1981, and it...
