Are you pro-choice?

Posted on December 27, 2022 by johnrachel

Enough is enough. Tyranny under the smiley-face of fake democracy must be stopped IMMEDIATELY! WE THE PEOPLE MUST HAVE A CHOICE — the decisive choice — whenever anything of consequence affecting our nation comes up for consideration. Continue reading →

The Trajectory of U.S. Foreign Policy

Posted on September 30, 2022 by johnrachel

There is nothing in the historical record of the last 100 years which offers any hope that the constant beating of the war drums will magically stop. That the trajectory of imperial conquest, and all the misadventures and war crimes which follow from that, will spontaneously reverse. Our only hope is removing the power-drunk lunatics now pushing us toward WWIII from decision making positions, i.e. regime change in Washington DC. Continue reading →

World War III is coming . . . LET’S DANCE!

Posted on May 26, 2022 by John Rachel

Getting together, whether it’s to dance, or to protest the abuses and humiliations we all endure just trying to survive, or to show up en masse at the polls and vote the pay-for-play lapdogs of the rich and powerful out of office, or to just talk to one another and try to sort out the mess our country is in — yes, getting together — is exactly what we must be doing! It’s not just a pretty thought. Frankly it’s a matter of survival! Continue reading →

War is the answer! But what was the question?

Posted on April 2, 2021 by John Rachel

In the forums for our national conversation, there is no earnest discussion of peace and cooperation now … period! How do we begin a national conversation which seriously promotes peace? Actually, there is a plan. People just need to know about it. Continue reading →

Why Donald Trump is not as horrible as Hillary Clinton … and why you should vote for Jill Stein.

Posted on October 28, 2016 by johnrachel

Vote for Jill Stein! If that ends up electing Donald Trump, so be it. He’s a buffoon and will accomplish nothing. He doesn’t know his way around Washington DC and will be totally isolated. If Hillary gets elected, we will end up in a major war. She knows her way around the nation’s capital and is supported by Wall Street, the big banks, the multinational corporations, the MIC, and worst of all, the neocon-infested government and media organizations. These folks know only four things: War, profit, more war, more profit. Yes, Hillary may end up being the nation’s first female president. But she’ll also end up being the nation’s last president.

Russian Roulette

Posted on August 29, 2016 by johnrachel

This presidential election is like playing Russian roulette. Voting for Hillary Clinton means they will load six bullets, filling the cylinder. Voting for Donald Trump means they will insert five bullets, leaving one chamber open. Voting for Jill Stein means there will be no bullets in the gun. Gosh … what should I do? Last time I checked, my skull wasn’t bulletproof. Continue reading →

Thought Experiment

Posted on August 27, 2016 by johnrachel

Call me silly, but common sense and the wisdom conferred by reading a little history tells me that making life better for all Americans is preferable to spending the money creating chaos, suffering, death and destruction across the globe. Does that make me a socialist? A hippie? A peace-and-love Pollyanna? Continue reading →

War Games

Posted on November 25, 2015 by johnrachel

Just so you know, while you’re having all sorts of innocent fun during the holiday season, playing Trivial Pursuit, Monopoly, Risk, Scrabble, Candyland and Boggle, here we have the lethal game our crazed leadership is playing.

What Passes for Rationality in the Modern World

Posted on September 16, 2015 by johnrachel

Who in their right mind would come up with MAD __ mutual assured destruction __ then destabilize it with policies which replace its precarious, paranoid, hair-trigger brinkmanship with more confrontation and a renewed arms race? Continue reading →
