Poster: Jack Huber Comment: Simply, put the Bush administration behind us by embarking on what we know to be a viable path forward in the Middle East - follow the Iraq Study's recommendations. But this is just a start. Poster: Joan Manning Comment: We project to the world the image of greed for money and power, and for slight regard for those we hurt in acquiring them. Until we rein in our corporations and get them out of politics, and cease our aggressive and wasteful weapons building, we will be regarded as dangerous to global well-being. Poster: Henry A Marta Comment: Vote for a big change in our Administration, open dialogue with Iran and Syria, support a fair and evenhanded resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian problem and use diplomacy to the ultimate extent in place of force and arrogance with the rest of the world. Poster: Bill Sharpless Comment: Peace Corps rejuvenation. Exchange students. Americans travel to other countries and not stay in American hotels. Remove the neo-con foreign policy and those that dreamed it up. Poster: Tim Wagner Comment: Impeach Bush and Cheney. Poster: Mad Molly Comment: We need to shape up and stop blaming. How many people vote? How many cheat in school or work? How do we behave? We look like dregs over-seas and behave like brutes. Every individual is responsible for cleaning up one's own act and taking responsibility for the government we have let run amuck. The rich have the most to lose, let them start paying more to protect it. Every body can do something. Too many aren't and don't care. Poster: Jane Oie Comment: The first thing that must be done is to get out of Iraq. Then we must elect a president who is able to think beyond his own and his friend's and family's needs. We definitely need to make a turn around in the US. Poster: Lynn Darling Comment: Stop playing god---ruler of all! Get out of Iraq. Mind our own business. Apologize to the world the lies we told and the mistakes we made.Go back to helping others meaning the 3rd world population the world wide cartel wants to bleed to death. Pay off own national debt off. Stop playing god. Desolve the WTO and NAFTA. Poster: Don Comment: Impeach Bush and Cheney Poster: robert S Mahoney Comment: Impeach the president and try the planners for crimes against humanity!! Poster: Diana Hasna Comment: Get out of Iraq and force Israel to end it's 40 year occupation of the Palestinian Territories. Return to a FAIR and BALANCED mid-east Policy. Poster: Alex Brown Comment: Get out of Iraq NOW. Poster: Bryan Adamson Comment: The best way for the U.S. to improve its worldwide image is to shock and awe with no-strings attached charity. Remember the post-sunami aid that leveraged military assets for logistical support? That's the type of thing we need to do. Along with that we should work together with the other nations in a cooperative spirit to bring stability and peace. Poster: Gerald A. Whitton Comment: Impeach Bush and do a house cleaning of the White House. Poster: Doug Skoglund Comment: Impeach George W. Bush and then reverse everything he has done, that can be reversed, of course. Poster: Molly Schneider Comment: It is time the administration learns from Tony Blair and Nancy Pelosi how to talk and negoiate with leaders of other Nations to foster Peace instead of Fear. Poster: Joan Sage Comment: Imagine if Congress impeached the fear-and-hate-monger Bully Bush and Cheney, we'd have Pelosi as first female president who actually talks to other nations, instead of killing and occupying them. Poster: Sally Comment: Remove the graceless, control-freak, my-way-or-nothing, President and VP & friends from office on the grounds of their many national and international crimes. While they are in power, every country in the world regards the US as an untrustworthy, sel-fcentered, underhanded enemy as the result of each country's (or ethnic or religious majority's) recent experience with the US. The President and VP have repeatedly proven their inability to comprehend the meaning of and process of diplomacy. Too much damage has been done by them. Poster: Joan Mortenson Comment: We should insist that Israel withdraw to the pre-1967 borders and quit developing more settlements. Our bias towards Israel is very damaging to our reputation in the Middle East. Poster: Mike Sentovich Comment: Remove Bush and Cheney from office. Poster: Judy Comment: Impeach Bush! Poster: Helene Comment: We need to stop yelling at, accusing and trying to control other countries and listen and treat others with respect. Poster: Diane Comment: The only way to show others that we can begin to think differently about the world and it's politics is to elect a woman as President of the U.S. Her whole approach (just being a woman and the way we process information) I believe, will make a big difference. Poster: Marilyn Miller Comment: Leave Iraq. Take action on reducing green house gases. Improve diplomatic relations with ALL countries. Get some help to Africa. Not much will happen until we get Bush out of the White House. He is the image of an arrogance, ignorance and aggression. Poster: Hubert J Steed Comment: Don't break international humanitarian laws and treaties without United Nations sanction. Poster: Lisa Smith Comment: To take the steps necessary to reverse the administrations' actions in the world by not supporting or paying for its policies and to begin to listen to those in other countries and to those within this country. To have the courage to deal with tyrants of our own. Poster: Kara Bommer Comment: End the war in Iraq. Poster: Todd Green Comment: Learn to live within its own vast borders and limit its desire to change the world to being a good example to be followed at home rather than the world wide wrecking crew it is now. The model for the Bush administration is the protection racket run by the Mafia in the early 1900s. Poster: Clifford Bruhn Comment: Quit being so G.. D... swaggeringly arrogant. Use diplomacy instead of guns. Don't be the World's policeman. Support and use the UN. Poster: Darya Comment: The US needs to put America's needs BEFORE Israel's. This will result in an astounding domino effect of change around the world. e.g. Iraq was never a threat to the US but it was to Israel so the neo-con agenda, wanting to eliminate this threat, packaged it as a threat to America instead. Put America's needs BEFORE Israel's needs - It's high time. Poster: Cecilia Height Comment: Impeach the entire Bush Administration and start with new blood. Poster: alma Comment: Get out of Iraq!!! Stop the arrogance and piety. Poster: karl k Comment: Get rid of the corrupt Republican Administration. |
