Nada Nader


Nader seems to have lost his voice. Here he is trying to explain it to us in a tiny Quaker house in New Paltz. Apparently no one wants to talk (or listen) to him which seems rather unfortunate since he has plenty interesting to say. In recent years Nader may have single handedly given the independence cause a face...while simultaneously defacing it. Some press guy in the audience asked what kind of personal responsibility Nader was willing to take for the war. The poor crazy guy was nearly tarred and feathered right there in a Quaker sacred place. "This is what I get in New Paltz???" Nader responded. Apparently upstate New York has consistently been his best support in the whole country. "Gore won that election, period." he continued. As Nader humbly pointed out, Obama likely will have at least a 24pt lead in NY so we can safely vote our conscience here. The thing is, Obama could be truer to his principles if there were another party with a face. What is clean coal anyway?
