Smith Mum on "Keystone"

But Challenger Mark Greene Calls Keystone XL an Environmental Disaster In the Making

"You have got to be kidding," would be the response if someone told the Revived Citizens Party that even the inept present government of the United States, that fairly recently propounded the ruination of the Gulf of Mexico with its decisions, was going to build a gargantuan oil pipeline, to carry some of the most environmentally damaging type of oil known to mankind (tar sands), to run through the agricultural heartland of America.  But nope, they're not kidding  -- that's exactly what they are going to do after the elections are over, and Obama will then have free sailing to continue being one of the worst environmental presidents in history.  They have already got the pipes and a lot of the infrastructure for the Keystone XL pipeline built, so anybody with any clue whatsoever knows that the decision has already been made, and it's just the timing that is proving to be a political problem for the feckless Obama administration. 

Obama's loyal footman, Rep. Adam Smith, doesn't even mention the word "Keystone" when he makes his rounds at town hall meetings and TV shows pretending to be a liberal, because he realizes that a sizable majority of his constituency is against Keystone XL.  Smith's silence speaks volumes, so it doesn't take a mind reader to know where Smith stands on Keystone -- he very likely supports it.  You heard it here first, or maybe second or third, but Keystone XL is an environmental hell in the making, and once this thing starts spilling oil, as a good number of oil pipelines inevitably do, and spoiling the breadbasket of America, then we will know it was a big mistake. Too bad we can't elect politicians that realize that from the get-go, but like Smith, a lot of them get their campaign money from the oil magnates, so what did you expect?  And we didn't even get to the extra greenhouse gas emissions that will come from this boondoggle, and the resulting effect on global warming.

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...
