In These Times

This morning, according to Tar Sands Blockade, Green Party presidential candidate Dr. Jill Stein and two other women successfully resupplied the tree-sitters in Winnsboro, Texas. Stein and a freelance journalist were subsequently detained by TransCanada security, and Stein has now been arrested and taken to Wood County Jail

Wow

Jill is all over the map these days. What a wonderful candidate. Greens just get better and better. I really like the idea of President/Dr Jill Stein utilizing air force one to fly down to feed/lunch with a tree sitter. Imagine that for just one moment.

I've noticed over the last few months a personal change...After a life long habit of doing so, I no longer use words or thoughts which align myself with Democrats... I identify myself as a Green... and it feels so much better.
