Join our IMPEACH BUSH & CHENEY chat tomorrow

Start: 28 Apr 2007 - 12:04pm

Timezone:

In light of all the IMPEACHMENT events happening all around the country, I will be here tomorrow from 11am to 1pm to chat about IMPEACHMENT.

This from Democrats.com email :

Tens of thousands of ordinary Americans from Miami, Florida to North Pole, Alaska will take to the streets on April 28 to call for the impeachment of President Bush and Vice-President Cheney. This marks the beginning of Impeachment Summer, an intensification of grassroots pressure on Congress to impeach, and it comes on the heels of the introduction by Congressman Dennis Kucinich of impeachment articles against Dick Cheney.

Please let me know if you would be available to discuss this further.

Best regards,

Words to live by

Q: Could we review some of the concepts that you've introduced into economics and see if you think they still have relevance? For example, the concept of "countervailing power."

Galbraith: Over the years--over the century just passed--one of the important counters to monopoly power in the corporate world was the development of countervailing power, certainly by trade unions, certainly by farmer cooperatives, certainly by other corporations. Power begets power, and I still hold very strongly to that view, which I first published, believe it or not, some fifty years ago.
