What people are saying about Lance Brown for President:

   "I've been reading some of the political content at freedom2008.com, and find it damn interesting.
   "I am nominally a Democrat, but have never been seriously politically active, mainly because I'm fed up with a lot of what the major parties say and do. ...you could say I'm looking for an intelligent alternative.
   "I'm not ready to declare myself a Libertarian, but your site piques me and makes me think. And that's (at least) half the battle.
   "Very interesting."
-- Kurt B.,
Allentown, Pa.

"Wow I am amazed and joyous! Your views are just what this country needs! I am going to spread the word about your campaign."
-- Elizabeth Ward

"I read every article posted on your site and was amazed to find myself repeatedly saying 'Wow, I agree with that.'"

"I'm pro-Lance as long as I'm not also running for prez" -
-- Mojo Nixon, entertainer and revolutionary

"You are probably this country's last chance at freedom in this lifetime."
-- ¡Obay!

"I stumbled upon your website and it is WONDERFUL. You can count on MY VOTE and MY SUPPORT in 2008!!!"
-- Alan Handleman,
Grayson, KY

"This is the blog belonging to my former boss and aspiring President of the United States. I remain pledged to moving to Ireland if he actually wins but still it's an interesting site."
-- Adam Graham,
Boise, Idaho

"I just want to take a minute to tell you that we really do appreciate your writing over here. I find the state of this country so outrageous that I mostly sit around pulling my hair out and fantasizing about Canada. But, incredibly, you don't stew! It's like you're on a whole other plane.
"It's so easy to lose sight of reality with all that glare from the fancy magic show illusions of our 'two' party system. Seriously. Your message is hopeful and real."
-- Kristen Werner,
Rollinsford, N.H.

Tilting at Empires

Most of my spare energy lately has been devoted to getting my two new websites up and running. They're pretty much fully functional now, though they'll be growing and developing with each passing day. I've got to do some more promoting of them, though word is starting to spread. I'm getting the feeling that the PNAC.info site is going to become a major attraction as time goes on. And though it may be too late to bring a halt to this particular unnecessary and atrocious war, I have a sneaking suspicion that there are other U.S.-led wars coming up just over the horizon. And HowToStopTheWar.org will be there, compiling and rating ideas for the anti-war movement.

I'm never one to lose hope -- if George Bush has proven nothing else, he's proven that in this day and age, there no limit to the outrageousness that can be achieved through modern media politics -- and there are still at least a couple billion people on the globe who want this war to stop right now, so HowToStopTheWar.org isn't giving up just yet, even on the Iraq War. There's talk of a special "Uniting for Peace" session at the UN, which could override the U.S. veto power and push through a resolution demanding a cease-fire or some other form of restraint. Obviously that wouldn't phase Bush much, but it would make an vivid statement, for the sake of history if nothing else. And it's important that the world continues to stand in firm opposition to Bush's plans for expansive aggression. Hopefully the folks here in this country will catch on eventually. It's certainly not a fight that can be given up on.
