Tymoshenko's Stand For Democracy

Former Premier, Yulia Tymoshenko
The Party of Commons and its founder, Mark Greene, candidate for Newcastle City Council, has morally supported former Ukrainian Premier and political prisoner, Yulia Tymoshenko, since the 2nd big disputed election (since 2004) in that Eastern European country in February, 2010, and has consistently called for her freedom on these blogs (Tymoshenko successfully had the 1st disputed election for the presidency, that she wasn't even running for then, overturned).  Greene, who has visited Eastern Europe, among other regions of the world, had the pleasure of visiting western Ukraine during the Zeroes (decade).  Greene has traveled to other world destinations as a tourist as well, especially since '92, including the cities of Hong Kong, Warsaw, Russia's Moscow and St. Petersburg, Athens and Rome.  There are rumors circulating that Tymoshenko may be freed soon, but we're not getting our hopes up until it actually happens.
 
Tymoshenko may have been denied a rightful victory to become president of Ukraine in '10, though amazingly it seems incredulous to many people that elections are actually stolen, including right here in the U.S.A.   The other curious election of '04 (Washington state) comes to mind, a strange Congressional primary that the mainstream news media intentionally ducked since they realize that the truth may really set us free.

Time to Vote

Mark Greene
Ladies and Gentlemen,

It's time to vote!  Now, is your time to take charge of the government and to let the lobbyists and go-along politicians know that the People shall rule in 2013, and that Newcastle isn't going to be just a neighborhood of another city anytime soon, if ever.  I request your vote and I appreciate your confidence in me as someone who is solely and wholly interested in representing the people only.  That is pretty much assured by the Establishment's hands off attitude towards me, as usual, as they are very aware that I don't represent their big money interests, because I'm totally grounded with the people, and believe we can do a lot better in being stewards of the Earth bestowed to us by God.  I am very glad that Mr. Drescher listed his many big shot endorsers, such as Rodney Tom and Rob McKenna, in a Newcastle News advertisement, because that's the clearest sign yet of the contrast between him and I, and how we approach politics.  Thank  you!

- Mark Greene, Candidate for Newcastle City Council, Position 6

Correction: a previous statement on this post should have been worded to state that I have never lost an election in which there were only non-incumbents on the ballot, notwithstanding the disputed primary loss for federal representative in '04 (Washington/9th CD).  I have been in three primary elections as such, including 2 victories in Alaska for federal representative ('00 and '02).

Oct. 21, 2013: N.P.R. has surpassed the goal of at least 5000 views on this site in a 30-day-period before Election Day, which means that word is spreading fast about one of the most energetic campaigns in a Washington local election this year, namely the Mark Greene for Newcastle City Council (Anti-Annexation) campaign.  Thank you for letting other readers know about N.P.R. -- the circulation of this site could not have dramatically increased in the last couple of months without your help.  Tomorrow (Oct. 22nd) is the annual Town Hall Meeting at the Newcastle Golf Club.

Oct. 22, 2013: While the hare and his Establishment friends scurry about in these last days before the election trying to get votes wherever they can; the tortoise keeps chugging along and is going to need your help to get over the finish line.  Please, call one family member, friend or acquaintance -- from Newcastle -- and ask that person to vote for Mark Greene. Thank you so much!

Oct. 25, 2013: The off-and-on competency of the King County Elections Department is off again as they bungled the exposure of my photograph (and a number of other candidates as well) and thus made it look like a silhouette in the 2013 King County Voters' Pamphlet (General and Special Election).  This can't be blamed on the particular photograph that I sent them (and probably can't be blamed on the particular photographs of most other candidates), because they had the same exact photo in my last election and it came out good then, but they got it from the Secretary of State's office that time, not to mention that this photo underwent some of the most rigorous specifications possible as directed by the Secretary of State.  As I said in '11, when I was Runner-up for Director of Elections, the King County Elections Dept. needs a thorough revamping.  Not much has changed, if anything, in the Huff - McConnell election operations since then.

Note:  The N.S.A. is  completely out-of-control spying on law-abiding American citizens, especially political activists and everyday people, and is now or was recently spying on German Chancellor, Angela Merkel.  None of our State of Washington delegation in Congress, least of all "Blue Dog" Democrat, Adam Smith, ever speaks out fervently against the unconstitutional acts of an increasingly Orwellian N.S.A., but the Party of Commons is writing about them, among other subjects, on Commoner.
