March for Sanity Rally

Get with it.   I’ve lined up a bus,leaving Friday 10/29 at 6:00 PM from Montpelier and returning 10/30 from DC at 6:00 PM but I need to fill it to keep the cost down to $80 per person.   People need to send me checks for $80 for each set to reserve a seat by Wednesday October 20.  This is an important national statement and a way to vote with your feet, and show the nation that Fox news is crap.

Get on Board

Washington DC March to Restore Sanity

( – promoted by Jack McCullough)

Jon Stewart’s March to Restore Sanity on Oct 30 to combat Fox News nonsense sounds like fun

I’m trying to rent a bus to leave Montpelier on 1029 at 6:00PM, go to DC and return starting at 6:00Pm on 10/30.  Similar to Obama inauguration trip.  I don’t know the cost yet, and it will depend on how many want to go.

If anyone is interested, please let me know and I’ll send particulars:  kimcheney@myfairpoint.net

Where Should Public Policy Go?

(Keeping with our promotion of candidate diaries. Cheney is running in the Washington County Senate primary. – promoted by GMD)

In 2010 spaceship earth shows worrisome signs of wear.  Economic collapse, loss of jobs, lack of public money to help those who need it, global warming, melting ice caps, highly polluting fuel sources, and political gridlock, to name a few causes.

The Vermont solutions are obvious. Keep Vermont Dollars in Vermont. Promote green energy and the technology that it requires, promote local farms, restructure health care, encourage public transportation, build information highways, and insist on a state tax system that is progressive.  Use tax policy to achieve these goals. Maintain an excellent education system. Where else will we find leaders?

There is creativity in Vermont, a lot of it generated by the Democratic Party.   We’ll need it next biennium. A budget that protects those who need help while keeping the best of Vermont, clean air, clean water, open government, progressive laws, and reasoned dialogue about issues will bring us through.
