A note to our readers

Hey --

Another Sunday. And we're late again.


First up, we thank all who participated this edition which includes Dallas and the following:

The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz),
Ruth of Ruth's Report,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.

What did we come up with?


Susan (On The Edge, formerly known as Random Thoughts) earned this one and then some.
Michael Ratner on the realities of protesting in the US.

Facts are supposed to be facts. But more and more, the press only treats them as such when an official states them.
Ava and C.I. are the heavy hitters this edition. They cover the media, the debt ceiling, the so-called crisis, community radio and so much more. A great piece.

Would you continue fighting for a group that you knew didn't trust your kind? We think not.
Before the fiction edition, we were asked to do another comic feature and said we would and had one in mind. But then, at the last minute, we did a fiction edition. Reader Connie reminded us of the missing article. Here it is.

Is Denis Leary really someone we should listen to?

Costs of war hearing.

I (Jim) talked C.I. into this reprint by pointing out it would give us additional Iraq coverage. Which it did. (C.I.'s only concern about reprints here is that we're not reprinting others in the community.)

Workers World repost.
Great Britain's Socialist Worker repost.

Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.


We'll see you next weekend.

Peace.

-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
