Let's find some other words. <br /><br />I’m very annoyed how populist is being distorted by the media with negative connotation. And they compare Europe with it’s many varied nations and rw party situations and say populism is sweeping democracies. Don’t disturb the status quo. <br /><br />Too bad about nyt bennet neo lib connections. we need change on that op ed page for sure.

He zoned off parts of the Arctic and then the Atlantic coast from oil rigs, plus some other environmental good stuff around the country, like stopping the Dakota Access Pipeline; and yesterday that amazing abstention allowing the UN's censure of Israel to prevail. <br /><br />"Just the latest example of diverging opinions between President Obama and President-elect Donald Trump," to quote the NY Times. What bravery in the face of AIPAC and the corporations. What a turnaround. What leadership! Another gold star for the legacy. A new day! Yes, there is a Santa Clause.<br /><br />Oh, wait ….Jay–Ottawahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360356126450612113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-14663147075415769282016-12-23T12:12:31.936-05:002016-12-23T12:12:31.936-05:00Wow!

I do get many articles and comments from organizations that are battling the dangerous fallout of a Trump presidency and pledging to continue the battle for sanity in the nation.<br />And it is helpful having you point out the differences among those pretending to have concerns regarding the dangerous changes on our doorstep which is vital to know what and whom to support and whom to question. <br />However, it is becoming easier to find honest articles in the NYTIMES these days and hearing from more knowledgeable pundits on CNN which is the only main U.S.news station I have on TV in Canada.<br />The Toronto Star has outstanding articles regarding U.S.shenanigans as well and the CBC news reports are amazingly accurate.<br /><br />Do continue to expose the charlatans in our left of center midst so we get a clearer picture of where the pitfalls of wrong support can occur. I am disappointed by the support of CIA leakages regarding Russian questionable hacking by many so called Liberals which complicates issues and which information is not provable. We do not need another Cold War especially with Trump tweets further muddying the waters of international diplomacy.<br />Great article which gives us a meaningful balance regarding borderline issues which become too confusing via the major media reporting.<br /><br /> PEARLnoreply@blogger.com
