I always forget about this gem. Twitter just reminded me of it. 

Everyone needs to watch this 3 times, and then remember these words:

"It's called the American Dream because you have to be asleep to believe it."

 

R.I.P. George Carlin. We never really appreciated you in your time.  We miss you and we need you.  Come back when you're ready. Maybe we'll still be here. Maybe.

Wyclef Jean calls for evacuating Haiti's capital, speaks out in defense of his foundation

Perhaps his  executive director just made him look good, and this was certainly an odd press conference (video), but my gut tells me Wyclef is sincere; just sloppy with details.

Since he won't stop trying to raise big text dollars, I just wish he would boast more about the Yele partners, and how he helps find resources to fund their efforts.  That kind of partnering is hardly new in NGOland.

I have a feeling we haven't heard the last of this. I just hope that when we do, it's about something that vindicates my gut.

As we contemplate the significance of the upcoming election, it is essential to recognize the profound impact it holds not only for political ideologies but also for urgent care and healthcare services. The outcome of this election will shape the trajectory of healthcare reform, determining access to vital medical assistance and the availability of resources for communities in need. Jackson Heights urgent care plays a crucial role in providing prompt and comprehensive healthcare services, and the decisions made at the polls can directly influence the support and accessibility of such facilities. As we consider the stakes of this election, let us also acknowledge the critical role that healthcare plays in our lives and the importance of preserving and improving the systems that serve our communities.

3. 2000 through 2008. You remember them… right?

1. You know that only voting can prevent your nation from sliding right back into the right wing, corporate dominated, science hating, pluralism fearing, gay bashing, infrastructure ignoring, education slashing, marriage mashing, arts crushing, book burning, war mongering, bigoted cesspool of greed and self-destructiveness that you hoped it was finally crawling out of.
