We thank them all. What did we come up with?




A new outlet for a truest.
Ralph Poynter's fighting for his wife and he and she both need your help.
We had no idea what to write.  Ty and C.I. started this as a joint-piece, not an editorial.  We were pressed for time and they offered it as the bones for an editorial.  We gladly accepted.
Ava and C.I. take on Friday's press conference with analysis of Barack, of the conference and of the press.  This is a very strong piece.

Dona proposed this when, this afternoon, she heard Elysium called a "blockbuster" on the TV.

The latest in our series.
Ava and C.I. offer two pieces this week.  This one praises and explains CNN's documentary which has been attacked by several.
Jill Stein and the Green Shadow Cabinet are calling for a pardon for Bradley Manning.

Lynne Stewart is dying, not just sick, she needs you.
A repost of Betty's film review.
From Senator Murray's office.

A repost from Workers World.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.


So that's what we came up with this go round.




Peace.
