I was quite stoked when I saw this article on the front page of TIME Magazine’s website. As the campaign continues to roll forward, hopefully more positive press like this will be forthcoming. Best quote:
With 20 or so mostly middle-aged attendees looking on, the candidates each stood at the podium to deliver a remarkably unified message: The U.S. government, they said, was an immoral enterprise — engaged in imperial wars, propping up corrupt bankers and supersized corporations, crushing small businessmen, plundering the tax-base for corporate welfare, snooping on the private lives of citizens — and they wanted no more part of it. “The gods of the empire,” Steele told the room, “are not the gods of Vermont.”
“It’s an abusive relationship we have with the central government,” says Peter Garritano, a square-jawed 54-year-old Subaru sales manager who is running for lieutenant governor. “We know it’s scary to leave the abusive nest. It’s a comfort zone in its own way. But we think we’ll do better leaving.”
Imagine… Free Vermont! And just in case you missed it, my endorsement which landed me the role of Dennis’ campaign manager can be found here.
that’s awesome!
I have been running into more blogs talking about secession issues in the last few days and commenting. There is an interest out there in this race, so every chance we get we need to put the bug in people’s ear to get them to think about this and State right’s in the face of FedGov power.
Congrats Matt, lead on to Victory!
The US government has morphed into the world’s largest international organized crime syndicate. Those who serve it in any capacity are thugs. Those subject to it are victims. We’ll have no part of thuggery any longer. Revolution is the solution. Join ours today.
