9th District All-Candidate Debate Invitations Sent, Today

Today, I sent e-mail invitations to all 3 other candidates for the 9th Congressional District U.S. Representative seat, which if at least 3 of 4 candidates agree to participate, will be held at the large meeting room in the main Bellevue Library on 110th Avenue on July 11, and possibly could be televised, as in 2004, by TVW, the Washington state cable news network that specializes in civic and political affairs.  The library has already approved the event.  For Challenger Congressional campaigns that have all but been ignored by the media, so far, you would think that Rivers and Basler, especially, would jump at the opportunity to get more community interest in this election.  You would think, but so far no word.  Interestingly, in 2004, Lord, Losey and Smith didn't let the first day go by before accepting debates.  However, the candidates, including the incumbent, Smith, have until Independence Day to respond to the invitation one way or the other, and if one or more don't respond affirmatively, I will do everything in my power to make sure that refusing debates gets the widest possible notice in the Seattle and Bellevue media, or in the best light, that the Bellevue debates are well publicized.  In the event that a candidate cannot attend this debate because of a reasonable excuse, or any excuse for that matter, that will be noted to the public.

-- Mark Greene, Candidate for U.S. Congress, 9th District of Washington (Revived Citizens Party)

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...

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...

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
