The River

Here's the news: Until it leads the national newscasts on TV, it hasn't made a dent in the public mind.

i realize i am still, at the age of 48, bereaved, poor, all that shit, hopelessly naive. i am still incredulous when it is pointed out that most americans do watch and believe the evening news. think that gw is a good ol' boy. don't believe what his war is about. cannot see our forefathers turning in their graves. and so on.

oh well. bruce has a couple links and a quote from Will Greider, who wrote who will tell the people, a book i have not read. the blurb explains that in this book, Greider shows us the realities of power in Washington today, uncovering the hidden relationships that link politicians with corporations and the rich, and that subvert the needs of ordinary citizens.

I stand on the sand, and I'm rocking grief to sleep in my arms.
