Sometimes people DO consider the messenger... especially if the messenger displays odd patterns.

May I be so bold, Jon, to suggest you slow down just a tad? (four minutes?) Some people may feel that you dilute a good message by so often being first or early with your comments, too many links too often, cut-pasting your own fan club letters, or like this... posting additional dramatic material without commenting from your own heart (other than counting aloud your own points).

It's an article about "Real Men Standing Up", but you simply posted the words of some other man.

These, on the other hand for example... are my own words. Maybe some people take umbrage to your high-handed (is that like fascistic?) pounding over our heads with the sad but truncated plight of 911 Families, while humanities whole receives far fewer words from you on balance. Your weird, and frankly, sycophantic insistence on the importance of Sibel Edmonds to "The 9/11 Truth Movement". Your strange name calling of those who see intentional demolition requiring much more than tin darts and jet fuel, such as myself.

I give you "down points" every once and awhile. If you don't like it, please petition for a complete removal of the points system all together. I'd give you up-points for that. Otherwise, STFU ya points-whore.

Jon. I voted it up 'cuz that there gurl is just so durned purty.
But seriously. I don't watch network fiction TV as a rule but this is quite exceptional.
As long as this type of message is being offered to the masses, there is still hope for the future of democracy in America et al but I imagine this is a rarity on the boob tube.

has nothing to do with one's ability to be a "real man".

Some fascists are "real men". They just lack honesty and have no moral beliefs. Stooges may be a better word for it.

I first bumped into the word "Globalization" last weekend at the Miller Center website. They broke our 200+ year history into 8 categories.

I have no idea why but that's what is displayed at that website. The last Category is labeled "Globalization" (1989- ) and lists presidents George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush.

Today I read an article where Nancy Pelosi referred to the term Globalization and Alan Greenspan claimed that Bill Clinton embraced Globalization.

I do not like the term "Globalization". I think it stinks of Hitler and his set of Fascists.

BUT the term does explain why the 2000 Coup of the presidency was so important to those who were dishonest enough to cave into the pressure from the Bush Crime Family and the other countries that were also involved in 9/11.

There were at least 2 US Supreme court Judges who should have recuse themselves from voting on the 5-4 decision to appoint GWB president. Especially the one that was appointed by his father Bush Sr.

They don't teach the Bill of Rights or Constitution in history anymore. They are making students in some of the New Jersey Middle schools wear uniforms in public schools, similar to the Nazi youth league.

I am glad that Dan Rather has the guts to bring out the fact that the government has been influencing the media for a very long time.

The devaluing of the dollar is one of the economic means of lowering our standards of living without having to deal with the Constitution.

Our children, even the college graduates don't have any idea how bad off they are. That scares me. They are willing to sign anything even though it may not be what they think they are signing. That's where the foreclosures have come from.

I am going to become more of an activist and start handing out copies of the Bill of Rights and US Constitution. They need to be re-educated and think for themselves rather than rely on what someone is telling them to think.

and there are many, many interesting points to be made about masculinity as a cultural construct in relation to dissidence and resistance. However, I don't understand why you would trivialize the issue by including a line like this: "Sometimes I wonder whether the guys who fall for this b.s. are trying to compensate for their lack of confidence as men. Testosterone levels in American men have, on average, been dropping for the last 20 years. Is that why so many men are following for the fascist dog-and-pony show now?" The last time I heard someone in the Truth movement make a reference to testosterone levels was when Alex Jones blamed the police response at Virginia Tech on falling levels of the hormone. (And I think he talked about pseudo-estrogens in their NWO-supplied water bottles as well.)

As you certainly must know, women by and large have much lower testosterone levels than men. In your post, you connect lower levels of testosterone with a susceptibility to fascism. Do you see a problem here? I think you can make your whole argument on the basis of a socially-constructed masculine image without invoking a cause-and-effect relationship between androgens and resistance to tyranny and oppression.
