Recent Shout Outs to Dennis

Paul from NP ThinkTank wrote at 7:22 AM on Dec-01-2008: Dennis, I'm very torn about how quickly the Walmart Tragedy is already fading from the news this weekend. Its an incident that helps explain our financial crisis due to the loss of trust in our society in all directions. It's aftermath shows our ability to "white-wash" everything that's unpleasant by changing the subject on that which is uncomfortable. Its every bit as evil as terrorism, and in many ways more so because its "casual evil" that just comes out unexpectedly without any pre-mediation. Its very much in the same callous evil vein as the Sarah Palin Halloween gag except with permanent tragedy for a man and his family and freinds. Someone needs to speak out on this and get to the full root about how this type of thing happens in our great country. It needs to be examined from Walmart's perspective, the police/fire department perspective who allowed 2000 people to congregate unsafely, and the shoppers who collectively murdered this man. To vent my frustration on this, I created this horrible imagery to keep the flames stoked on this subject. My point is that people need to condemn this event with the same fervor that they condemn terrorism. To not do so is hypocrisy of the worst kind. http://picasaweb.google.com/nonprofitthinktank/PoliticalSatireFromNPThinkTank#5274775396054329170 -Paul Levy Executive Director The NonProfit ThinkTank? wayne wrote at 6:52 AM on Nov-27-2008: Tribute To American Soldiers On Thanksgiving Day As families across the U.S. make their pilgrimages home to celebrate the family itself and give thanks for all we have, I, Parker John, would like to wish our U.S.Troups a happy Thanksgiving; and extend my best wishes to their families around the world. The ultimate pilgrimage, of course, is to the unification of the Soldier's family. May we all include that thought in our prayers this harvest season. Semper Fi, Wayne
