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

With the Press, Again

As long-time readers of my blogs know, my relationship with the media has been acrimonious at times, though I realize, of course, that the press is an essential part of politics and democracy in our nation, and of course the relationship between politicians and the press is going to be often disharmonious because they have distinctly different interests.  That doesn't mean that one or both sides cannot be at fault at varying times, and both sides often are. So with all that in mind, my first thought today is, though I am sure that the H-1B system for hiring temporary foreign workers has been widely abused, there is a big distinction between that system and the system for permanent residents being in the job market.  In the interest of my views being as publicly accurate as possible, I'll say this: I more or less support the law that infers that official permanent residents should be treated...
