Free Hugs is the real life controversial story of Juan Mann, a man whose sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger put a smile on their face. In this age of social-disconnection most all of us lack that simple human touch from another, the effects of the Free Hugs Campaign are now felt around the globe. As this simple gesture of kindness and hope spread across the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs Campaign BANNED. What we then witnessed was the true spirit of humanity as people came together in what can only be described as something awe inspiring. In the spirit of the Free Hugs Campaign please pass this video to a friend and HUG a stranger! After all, you CAN make a difference. Music by Sick Puppies. Their album was release on April 3rd and is titled "Dressed Up As Life". http://sickpuppies.net ------------------------------------------------- The response to this video has been nothing short of overwhelming and touching. Hugs to every single one of you who messaged. There has been thousands of emails from all over the world from people seeking to participate in the Free Hugs Campaign and asking for permission. You don't need permission. This is the people's movement, this is *your* movement. With nothing but your bare hands you CAN make a difference. ------------------------------------------------

David Letterman Reacts to John McCain Suspending Campaign

On the "Late Show," David Letterman talks about John McCain suspending his campaign in order to solve the economic problems.

The McCain Campaign may not want you to see this

More at http://www.theuptake.org If there's one thing both the McCain and Obama campaigns agree on it's that the election will be close in Florida. The McCain campaign says it has more volunteers than the Democrats and that ultimately gives them the edge. McCain's Central Florida Campaign Manger says ACORN and the Democrats have to rely on paid workers. However, the McCain campaign is hiring paid workers who sometimes also call themselves volunteers. The UpTake's Sam Mayfield talked to a few of them... and that's when one McCain campaign worker decided you shouldn't see what is going on and threatened to have her arrested.

Thanksgiving Campaign

*Sorry I know I can't sing, but I couldn't find a singer on such short notice! I made the entire song and video today. Again this video is not a comedy!

Credits: Nick Sisto Ryan Kihara "Free Thanks" Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!! This is a parody of the Free Hugs Campaign.

Colin Powell Eviscerates McCain's Negative Smear Campaign

Press availability following his endorsement on "Meet the Press." Destroys every McCain and Republican talking points from Ayers to "terrorist" to Rep. Bachmann's rant to "socialism." From MSNBC, 10-19-08. Q: Sir, what role did McCain's negativity play in your decision? POWELL: It troubled me. You know, we have two wars. We have economic problems. We have health problems. We have education problems. We have infrastructure problems. We have problems around the world with our allies. And so those are the problems the American people wanted to hear about, not about Mr. Ayers, not about who is a Muslim and who's not a Muslim. Those kinds of images going out on al Jazeera are killing us around the world. And we have got to say to the world it doesn't make any difference who you are or what you are. If you're an American you're an American. And this business of, for example, a congressman from Minnesota who's going around saying let's examine all congressmen to see who is pro-America or not pro-America. We have got to stop this kind of nonsense and pull ourselves together and remember that our great strength is in our unity and in our diversity. And so that really was driving me. And to focus on people like Mr. Ayers, these trivial issues for the purpose of suggesting that somehow Mr. Obama would have some kind of terrorists' inclinations, I thought that was over the top. It was beyond just good political fighting back and forth. I think it went beyond. And then to sort of throw in this subtle Muslim connection. You know, he's a Muslim and a terrorist. And it was taking root. And we can't judge our people and we can't hold our elections on that kind of basis. And so yes, that kind of negativity troubles me and the constant shifting of the argument. I was troubled a couple of weeks ago when in the middle of the crisis the campaign said we're going to go negative and they announced it. We're going to go negative and attack his character through Bill Ayers. And now I guess the message this week is we're going to call him a socialist. Mr. Obama is now a socialist because he dares to suggest that maybe we ought to look at the tax structure that we have. Taxes are always a redistribution of money. Most of the taxes that are redistributed go back to those who pay it in roads and airports and hospitals and schools. And taxes are necessary for the common good. And there's nothing wrong with examining what our tax structure is or who should be paying more, who should be paying less. And for us to say that makes you a socialist I think is an unfortunate characterization that isn't accurate. And I don't want my taxes raised. I don't want anybody else's taxes raised. But I also want to see our infrastructure fixed. I don't want to have a $12 trillion national debt and I don't want to see an annual deficit that's over $500 billion heading toward a trillion. So how do we deal with all of this?

Global Campaign Against Sharia Law

Over 4,000 signatures on the UK One Law For All Petition...Over 5,000 supporters of the Global Statement Against Sharia law. ANYONE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD CAN SIGN THIS PETITION Sign the UK One Law For All Petition and support the Global Statement against Sharia law: http://www.shariapetition.com/ Sharia law controls every single aspect of your private and public life. Girls from the age of puberty can be married. Shoplifting is punishable by amputation. Anyone who criticises the Qur'an or Mohammed can be legally murdered. You are not allowed to sing, or dance, or even laugh in public. Art, music and literature as we know them are simply not permitted. The legal witness of a man is worth more than a woman. Sharia law is not fundamentally different from other religious laws, but because it is part and parcel of a political movement with state power, its medieval rules become the laws of the land for millions. Sharia and all religious based laws are incompatible with the 21st Century; it is incompatible with any society that wants to maintain freedom and equality for all. During the enlightenment, our predecessors fought to remove the legal system from the biased grip of religion and pushed Christianity out of the public sphere; we must do the same again. We reject Sharia law because it is discriminatory, cruel and barbaric and demand an end to Sharia law across the world. We unequivocally support the struggle of people everywhere whether in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia or in Britain and the West, to oppose Sharia and live in secular societies, where at a minimum religion is a private matter and separate from the state, legal and educational systems and universal human rights and citizenship rights are guaranteed. That is why there is now a Global Statement Against Sharia Law to be found on shariapetition.com. This site will link you to all the national petitions and campaigns that again can be signed and supported by anyone in the world. The movement is starting with a global effort to support the UK national petition called One Law for All. The UK is in a similar position to that in which Canada found itself before 2005. In the UK, though, Sharia has already crept in and is being integrated into normal everyday legal systems under the initial guise of a viable arbitration mechanism. However, it must be stopped dead in its tracks right now. And be reassured, it is possible. It is not too late. Because of a similar petition and campaign supported globally by people all around the world, in 2005 Canada was able to remove this biased and unjust system of law and uphold equal and citizenship rights for all. A massive campaign is being organised in the UK to support this petition and drive this loathsome form of legalised inequality and prejudice from Britain too. Anyone in the world can sign the UK One Law for All petition and it is being supported by leading lights in the international fight for equality and freedom. All you have to do is go to shariapetition.com, acknowledge that you support the Global Statement Against Sharia Law and then sign the UK petition. Other national petitions are on their way, and will be accessed through the single global doorway of shariapetition.com. This will help further coordinate and support the crucial work being done against Sharia law in many different places. I want to encourage you to get every single person you know to go to that website - shariapetition.com - and sign the UK petition One Law for All. This is the time to act. The world's press and politicians will be monitoring the number of people who support the global statement against Sharia on shariapetition.com and this first and most urgent national petition, One Law for All, which aims to remove Sharia from the United Kingdom just like the previous petition and campaign successfully removed Sharia from Canada. We can and will make a difference. People everywhere deserve better. There can be no place for Sharia in the 21st century. Full Stop. Has there ever been a better time to make your voice count?

El lugar: Partiendo de la "escalera al revés" de Pla. Catalunya y caminando rambla abajo hasta casi el Maremàgnum (Barcelona, España, que se me olvidaba). Los cartelistas: Joso (Santi), Bu! (Tania), Matalascañas (David). Los cámaras: Joso (Santi), Funkyboy (Dani), Matalascañas (David). La gente que nos abraza: Mu maja.
