Citizens Campaign Swings Through One of Ninth District's Biggest Downtowns

Non-Smith Democrats Reject Rivers and Join Citizens Coalition

Today, I was shaking hands, discussing politics and passing out campaign cards in and around the intersection of 320th & Pacific Highway, the heart of the City of Federal Way, and the reception that I got was hugely positive.  The people are so sick of the major parties that they'll vote for anything else.  One woman said that she agreed with most of what I had to say, and she's looking forward to voting in the primary, presumably for me.  With feckless government policies that have brought widespread cynicism to the American people, the people are beginning to understand that the best way towards the overall revitalization of the nation is to put in new parties and independents.  Non-Smith Democrats are not about to vote for a cranky Don Rivers, who has about as much chance of overtaking Adam Smith in the primary as winning the Powerball jackpot.  However, these Democrats will vote for me, realizing that I am for the common man and woman, and not a water-carrier for big business special interests, and also realizing that I am the only candidate besides Smith that can draw more votes than the Republican candidate, and thereby with a decent shot for being in the Top 2.  Nonetheless, it'll be close between me and the Republican candidate for 2nd place in the August 5th primary.

-- Mark Greene, Candidate for U.S. Representative, 9th Congressional District of Washington

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...

Moneypolitics

I'm always behind the curve, time wise, in seeing the best movies, but I just saw Moneyball with Brad Pitt about a couple of weeks ago.  Suddenly, I started comparing politics with baseball, again, as I did with "Leo's Maxim" some time ago.  In Moneyball, basically, the Brad Pitt character had to deal with the lowest budget, or close to it, of all the other major league teams in baseball, yet also try to build a competing team for the American League championship.  Pitt's character, Billy Beane, the General Manager, succeeded by making the playoffs in the year 2002 by having one of the best records in A.L. history, 103 victories, and setting the A.L. record for the most consecutive victories in history, 20 in a row. Beane and his Asst. General Manager devised a system of using statistics to overcome their money disadvantage and it proved that numbers can override money with persistence and strategy.  I believe that the same principle...

Smith's Votes

The following is a list of some of Congressman Adam Smith's worst votes in Congress:   1999:   Smith voted for Gramm, Leach, Bliley Act: the law that dismantled the Glass-Steagall Act which had separated financial institutions' commercial and investment branches from involvement with each other, and thereby kept customers' accounts from being exposed to risky banking gambits. 2008: Smith voted for U.S. - India Nuclear Agreement: this agreement undermined the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Act (N.P.T.), despite that this deal involves the energy sector, by cooperating on a nuclear level with a country that has long refused to sign the N.P.T. 2008: Smith voted for T.A.R.P., otherwise known as Wall Street Bailouts:  while Wall Street was giving their executives million dollar-plus bonuses, before and after the passage of T.A.R.P., the American taxpayer was footing the bill for this outlandish give-away of government money. 2011: Smith voted for...
