A rambling monologue of one man's views on society, politics, business, environment, consumerism etc. If you want to know which trash can to put this in, "dissident American independent with liberal and tree hugger tendencies" will do.

never mind authority, speak truth to greensmile
Seriously folks, What would you say to stop the war? We will stand in vigils on Monday and I want some kick-ass slogans for the signs. Bush, Cheney and friends gladly interpret silence as "yeah, go ahead, stay the course".

I would be inclined to reframe whenever possible. We see and hear the word "war" so often now that folks may be numb to it.
A term such as "End the Occupation" might be a way to get our thoughts out of that rut.
I would not use the word "surge" at all. It just reinforces the neo-con worldview.
I avoid public mention of the T words for that reason. (T words? You know, t*rr*ris* )

Thanks. This should improve quality and variety...points out a great truth too: One side locked in accusation of the other side's refusal to entertain a new thought is itself not having any new thoughts...hence deadlock!

"Back by popular demand" was popular with sign wavers. But I didn't see it in any of the news coverage of the vigil on TV.
We got a lot of coverage.
