Ted Rall's Pledge for American Renewal

Visit Ted Rall’s site at:

http://www.rall.com/rants.html

to read his terrific column about how you can help restore democracy to the country that needs it most: America.

Write (an actual letter, not email) to your favorite presidential candidate and declare that you are a single-issue voter. Swear that, if he or she agrees to sign the following Pledge, your vote is assured. If not, promise to stay home or vote for someone else.

Pledge for American Renewal

"I, ______________, hereby solemnly pledge that my first act upon assuming the office of President shall be to sign an American Renewal Act of 2009, which shall declare all laws, regulations, executive orders, treaties and actions undertaken by the federal government during the illegitimate and unlawful administration of George W. Bush to be null, void and without effect."

Damn good stuff.

Thomas Jane Due to Make Directorial Debut in 3-D

Variety reported today that Thomas Jane ("Stephen King’s The Mist") will make his directorial debut with "The Dark Country," a 3-D thriller about a honeymooning couple that run into big trouble. Ron Perlman ("Hellboy") stars with Lauren German ("Hostel: Part II").

Thomas Jane has long been an underrated actor whose performance in "Stephen King’s The Mist" is the best of his acting career. It will be interesting to see how his sense of professionalism pays of from the other side of the camera.
