Pro-Witch/Woman/Gay/Bill of Rights. -- I advocate Women's Autonomy (abortion), equal pay, holistic medicine, clean air, clean water, organic farming, sustainable resources, care for the disabled/mentally ill, caring for our children with pure foods, free education, universal health care, equal opportunity, making them loved, wanted, sheltered, protected from violence and poverty. I don't suffer fools OR fascists gladly. -- The political blogosphere needs Pagan voices. Having a Jew, Christian and Muslim on a panel is NOT religious diversity- they are all patriarchal. The Goddess movement is back after 5,000 years of an unnatural social order. We won't be marginalized. We expect to be counted. I'm a Witch, with a capital W-please, don't use it when you mean to say "Bitch". -- Me: Pansexual, Bipolar Poet-Painter-Priestess. -- Jobs: Writer, Psychic, Music/Literary Critic, Author, teacher, counselor, concert promoter, managed rock bands, published a fan magazine, CEO, Retired Fed. -- Politics: Revolutionary (Progressive just isn't extreme enough) -- Ministry: Right here. Questions? I'm happy to help.

"I don't think that witchcraft is a religion." -- George W. Bush to ABCNEWS, June, 1999
"I really believe that the Pagans, and the abortionists, and the feminists, and the gays and the lesbians, ... the ACLU, People For the American Way - all of them who have tried to secularize America - I point the finger in their face and say 'you helped this [terrorist attack] happen." Jerry Falwell, 700 Club, 2001-SEP-13. 2
"[Feminism is] a socialist, anti-family, political movement that encourages women to leave their husbands, kill their children, practice witchcraft, destroy capitalism and become lesbians. ~Pat Robertson
During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing [June, 1999], Sen. Strom Thurmond, R-S.C., submitted a statement decrying Wicca, a nature-based faith, as irreligious and saying it should not be accommodated by the military.
In May {1999], Rep. Bob Barr, R-Ga., sent letters to base leaders at Fort Hood demanding that they cease permitting soldiers to engage in Wiccan celebrations. Barr's likened Wiccan practices to "Satanic rituals" and said the military needed to stop allowing Wiccan celebrations to occur on bases.

Morgaine,
I would have suppported the Lakota withdrawl unilaterally had they went to the other Native American Nations and consulted them in effort to build a unified Indian Nation.
The article did not mention any such attempt, but rather the Lakota delivered the message to the US, then sought out Bolivia, Venzuela and other National governments to build support of this move.
The they embolden themselves by offering a Tax free residency in thier lands(extended to everyone). That in of itself negates the Idea of Lakota Lands independent of US Jurisdiction- in essence Mr. Means, and by extension the Lakota are trying to replicate a revamped version of the United States. If So, why secede then?
Im sure the honorable intention is there but it is ill concieved. With out the backing of the other Nations, and by this I mean Native American Nations, the measure will fall flat on its face. The US government will have to do absolutely nothing to make it go away. The Lakota have done it already.
