A Progressive Warrior Queen-Isn't That an Oxymoron?


In case you don't know the story of Boadicea (Boudicca), in a nutshell it goes like this.

Boadicea's tribe, the Iceni, lived peacefully as a client tribe under Roman rule. After her husband's death corrupt Roman officials reneged on the agreement that left the Iceni in peace. When Boadicea, still the leader of her tribe, went to protest this, she was flogged and her daughters were raped before her eyes.

She returned to her tribe and raised a rebellion against the Romans that was short lived, brutal, and ended in her death.

Understand, I'm not looking to raze Colchester, or leave piles of bodies behind me. However, the Radical Right Religionists and the Corporate sponsors of the Chattel Society have declared war on us who are "others".

 
I say we fight back.  Right now, I'm fighting back primarily at Texas Kaos. Please come join me.

Rick Noriega and Blogosphere Day!

posted Thursday, 19 July 2007

Today is Blogosphere Day. I've got a blog posting at Texas Kaos on the subject.

Some of you may know I've been working to get a particular candidate in the race against Box Turtle John Cornyn.

That guy is Rick Noriega.

We're trying to get 800 small dollar donors in 4 weeks. If any of you would be able to throw even 5 or 10 dollars in-even 1, it'd mean a great deal to me, and help us demonstrate the kind of broad support we're going to need against an opponent who can drop a million dollar check in his own campaign fund without batting an eye.

Rick is the real deal. The right leader at the right time, and I want to send John Cornyn packing so bad I can taste it.

Catch a ride on the Noriega Express. Heading from Texas to DC with 800 of my new best friends on board...
