The demise of the democratic party at the hands of the "moderates" constantly moderating their values to pander to the right wing has lost my support and the support of many in the last 20 years.
The real Terror facing our country now is environmental degradation tied to the moral degeneration of the greedy in denial of the reality of the eco-disaster. When will the Democratic party start to really support the people's movements to stop this. Here is an example;

Al should go to south Central LA and show his support for real solutions that work!!!


"Fourteen years ago, this spot was a wasteland- and in the wake of the 1992 LA uprising then-Mayor Bradley and Doris Block of the L.A. Regional Food Bank made a handshake deal to allow it to be used for a community farm. Today, after thousands and thousands of hours of sweat and labor, the South Central Farm is the largest urban farm in the nation. The 350 families who use the farming plots are low‑income and depend heavily upon the food they grow to feed themselves. In addition to growing food for themselves, the people involved with the community garden hold Farmers' Markets, festivals and other cultural events for the public at large.

In a backroom deal in 1996, the 14 acre farm was offered to a developer at a discount, but the deal was never approved by the City Council. In 2002, the developers sued the City and a settlement was reached giving the farm to the developers for a significantly below-market price. To repurchase the farm, the developer is insisting on over $16 million (they paid just over $5 million for it four years ago) and $6 million has already been raised by the South Central Farmers. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa has the ability to pay the rest of selling price from the City budget, or further challenge the original sale. However, he has done neither.

“This is the Promised Land”, community leader Dele Ailemen emphatically stated on the encampment’s first day. “It was land that was promised to this community by the Mayor of Los Angeles after the 1992 uprising.” “It will not be taken away by broken political promises.”

It would be wonderful if Al Gore would go to the site see the farm talk to the people who eat the food grown there and show some support for the tree sit!!!
I hope our grand children will remember the warriors of peace who fought to save the forests of this country on Memorial Day!!!
