"I guess my biggest thing is that as people who are trying to create a new world, I do believe we have to dismantle or transform the old order to do that..."

And I suppose that anyone trying to defend the old world has every right to use lethal force in that defense, as she and hers are obviously involved in warfare and crime, not redress of grievances.

But don't you dare question her patriotism or you might find a rock with your name on it.

"Democratic activist": just another term for unemployed troublemakers/scheissters

Someone made a good point: people like Lisa harass wounded Iraq & Afghanistan vets and they burn Old Glory--but don't dare question the integrity of 'patriots' like Lisa . . .

Another ugly and bitter woman. Through what prism do these people view the world? It's OK to them to leave sand dollars alone, but it's also OK to abort kids in their mothers' wombs. Huh? Too bad there's no cure for stupidity.

"I guess my biggest thing is that as people who are trying to create a new world, I do believe we have to dismantle or transform the old order to do that," Fithian continued. "I just fundamentally don't believe it will ever serve our interests as it's currently constructed."

And just what is the nature of the "new world" you are trying to create, Lisa? What are the "interests" you are tying to serve?

[rawcatslyentist]

Isn't this what the Patriot act was made for? To arrest seditious domestic terrorist organizers?

Thank you for NOT unnecessarily excerpting this article.

Follow the money. Always, always, ALWAYS follow the money. This woman doesn't have a job except the one that she's created, and it doesn't pay anything...but somehow she's able to travel at will to wherever the leftist action is. So, WHO is paying her bills, and what are they getting in return for their investment?

Lisa Fithian of Austin, Texas., places name tags of soldiers that were killed in the Iraq war on crosses that were placed at a roadside camp near President Bush's ranch, Thursday, Aug. 11, 2005, in Crawford, Texas. A protest by a grieving mother who lost her son in the Iraq war is gaining momentum. About 50 people have now joined Cindy Sheehan in her vigil near President Bush's Central Texas ranch near Crawford. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez) Height (pixels): 414 Width (pixels): 512

The last time I saw so many boothogs collected in one place was a visit to the greenham common missile base in the UK, back in '84.

The protestors were as wrong then as they are now.

And just as funky.

Lisa Fithian wrote a letter to her dead friend Abbie Hoffman in a reprint of Hoffman's "Steal This Book." Parts of her imaginary letter to Hoffman reveal her excited approval of the 9/11 terrorist attacks against the Twin Towers and the Pentagon. Quotation from a her preface in a review of this book follows:

Cutting edge publishing house Four Walls Eight Windows' edition of Hoffman's survival guide contains introductions by activists Al Giordano and Lisa Fithian.

This is more than pop culture. This is not a nostalgic walk through time to Lisa Fithian. Fithian, friend of Hoffman, union organizer, and "non-violent activist" who was "arrested, searched, and detained while preparing protests for the G-20 summit in Ottawa", writes a letter to the dead Abbie as the foreword to this edition. She tells him, "Planes turned into bombs. The Twin Towers collapsed. The Pentagon in flames. Two of the most powerful symbols of capitalism and militarism left gaping and destroyed in a matter of moments. The foundations of the old order were cracked open." She continues:

Meanwhile the Government Inc. propaganda machine is in full-tilt boogie and the right-wing is doing everything it can to consolidate its power. Our democratic system is a joke. Would you believe the Supreme Court actually chose the last President? You know when his wife's nickname for him is STUPID, we're in trouble. Yup, baby George W., son of the ex-CIA director drug dealer and oil man, George Bush, is now the Prez. He can barely articulate a coherent sentence. Just makes you sick. Now he gets to wage a war in the name of fighting terrorism.

In reality this war is just another front in the capitalists' efforts to expand and control world markets, keep the rich, white boys in charge and squash an intensely amazing, growing resistance movement. A movement that captured the attention of the world on your birthday! November 30, 1999 over fifty thousand people swarmed the streets with song and dance to shut down the Millennial Rounds of the World Trade Organization in Seattle.

This movement arose from the fact that corporations with the support of elected officials are selling our water, endless polluting our air, genetically modifying our food, clear cutting our forests. For them, "developing" means "destroying."
…same shit, different generation…

Al Giordano sees the release of this issue of Steal This Book differently. The biographical blurb about Giordano says he is ". . . a free speech defendant currently being sued by billionaires in the Drug War on Trial case in New York City." A longtime friend of Hoffman, Giodarno describes him as a man who thought ". . . a task was either worth going to jail for, worth dying for, or it was not worth doing." While admitting that, of all Hoffman's seven published works, Steal This Book is the most widely read and notorious, Giordano claims much of the book is obsolete.

My son, Andrew is joining the Army today. His best friend, Govi (who is like a son to me as well) is joining the Marines today as well. I am both very proud and scared a very strange feeling. I asked him why? he said "mom, how can I support the war and not risk my life as well, it is time I put up or shut up.

...Fithian — who told NRO she's been arrested "probably at least 30 times"...

Isn't there some kind of "30 imes and you're out" law? Doesn't such a record account for anything, speak of a habituality? How many times will she be allowed to bugger police forces across the country? When will she be called upon to be responsible and do the time for the crime?

[Logical me]

"Lisa Fithian is 40 years old and lives in Los Angeles" It figures.

[Wuli]

Was their ever any doubt that Ms Sheehan was not just sitting at home one nite and out of "frustration" decided to go confront Bush? Her leftist politics and her acquaintance with her knew handlers long precedes her Crawford expedition.

Sheehan would have had an active part in the anti-war movement, in some way, even if her son never went into the Army. Her exploitation of his death and her grief over it is no more than a convenient public excuse for her positions.

The rest of the insane clown posse is finally showing up.

Fithian is a legendary organizer who operates in the world of anti-globalism anarchists

Oxymoron alert?
