Subject: Thpaty for the people and their 400,000$ special intrest parties...

If you party is for the people Tommy, explain to me the notion of these parties that are being held for various senators, congressmen, and govoners in L.A....

...They are sponsered by people such as AT&T, Bell South, Mobile, The Florida Power Coperation, The American Natural Gass Company, Proctor and Gamble, and so on...

...they last a few hours and cost 3-4,000,000$, all paid for by the corperate sponsers...delegates, state and national party comitee memebers, congresmen, senators, and staffers mingle with stars, corprate representatives, and special intrest lobyists...this happened in philidelphia as well, and you know what, many of the same corperations sponsered these things...with the promises of future campaign funds from these people they mingle with, and future 4,000,000 dollar parties in there honor, what makes you think oneside is better then the other? When it comes down to it, your concerns will be last when legislation is passed, and you know why? Because people are stupid enough to buy these facades, these conventions where they promise you the kitchen sink and give you a tooth pick, these quib one liners, and there symbolic little issues that they constantly argue about...

...Bill Clinton has used the social security issue to scare the voting public for 8 years now...he constantly says republican's are a road block to massive social security reform...I ask you now...when was the clinton social security or medicare program ever introduced into the congressional debate...it wasn't, because he never offered one...Why do I pick this particular subject to talk about? Because it affects all people, not merely some symbolic special intrest offering to a small group...it is so typical, and if you buy the speach of Al Gore, or G.W. Bush Jr., your buying nothing but a shit load of retoric...

...I remember the speech he gave at the last DNC...the speech against big tobbaco, where he cried because his sister died of lung cancer...a little different then th speech he gave to Tobacco farms long after she died from this cancer to raise cmpaign funds, where he spoke of how he grew tobacco, and this is true because this is how his blue blooded father...a senator who groomed him to be a national politician from birth, got rich...I will tell you this, not only did he not stop taking tobacco money after his sisters death, his family also continued to grow it...

..I am done talking about silver spoon in the mouth Al Gore, who invented the internet that was made when he was seven by the department of deffense...who lables B.W. Bush Jr. the oil barron but hold over 1 million dollars in big oil investments in his mothers name...don't you see...this for the people thing is all a facade Tommy...
