Please, PLEASE read this article

Sorry, mods. Sorry for cross posting or whatever its called, but it was either that or a dupe post.

This Mark Morford article was posted in E&A Forum, but no one, it appears, bothered to read it. Perhaps the title suggested we'd heard it all before. But the title doesn't do this article justice.

The defining article on our current state

4. Viva La Revolution

I think Ice-T said it best when he said "who are we to think we are so civilized that we cannot under go a revolution?"
Thats what we need. Not a take back the streets campaign, but an "honest-to-god-split-the-country-in-two-pieces-if-thats-what-needs-to-happen revolution

I've sent it on. It is great, maddening, and many other adjectives I can't seem to spit out right now. Thanks again.

Best column I've read today. Mark Morford is a genius. You're right-- someone should go kick everyone out of the Lounge and make them read this column.

hearing his outrage.

14. Thank Indigobusiness

I just found it languishing down near the bottom of the page, without one single comment. It blew my mind when I read it, and couldn't believe no one else seemed to care about it.

15. The White House issued an international op-ed piece??? When??

How did I miss it?

I read DU every day; was it talked about here but maybe in a forum I don't frequent?

17. Wow...Very well written. You probably did not get

a lot of reaction because most of us here have told the same story in their own words and can only sit back and appreciate the style and way that this author told his version. Its all too true. SOMEHOW we need to find a way to wake the American public at large and assist them in shaking their apathy.
