AUGUST 1st to Sept. 1st

Well over 50 yrs ago I knew a lady who would not buy Christmas gifts if they were made in China . Her daughter will recognize her in the following.

Did y'all see Diane Sawyer's special report? They removed ALL items from a typical, middle class family's home that were not made in the USA .

There was hardly anything left besides the kitchen sink. Literally. During the special they showed truckloads of items - USA made - being brought in to replace everything and talked about how to find these items and the difference in price etc..

It was interesting that Diane said if every American spent just $64 more than normal on USA made items this year, it would create something like
200,000 new jobs!

I WAS BUYING FOOD THE OTHER DAY AT WALMART and ON THE LABEL OF SOME PRODUCTS IT SAID 'FROM CHINA '

FOR EXAMPLE THE "OUR FAMILY" BRAND OF THE MANDARIN ORANGES SAYS RIGHT ON THE CAN 'FROM CHINA '

I WAS SHOCKED SO FOR A FEW MORE CENTS I BOUGHT THE LIBERTY GOLD BRAND OR THE DOLE SINCE IT'S FROM CALIF.

70% of Americans believe that the trading privileges afforded to the Chinese should be suspended.

Why do you need the government to suspend trading privileges? DO IT YOURSELF, AMERICA !!

Simply look on the bottom of every product you buy, and if it says 'Made in China ' or 'PRC' (and that now includes Hong Kong ), simply choose another product, or none at all. You will be amazed at how dependent you are on Chinese products, and you will be equally amazed at what you can do without.

Who needs plastic eggs to celebrate Easter? If you must have eggs, use real ones and benefit some American farmer. Easter is just an example. The point is do not wait for the government to act. Just go ahead and assume control on your own.

THINK ABOUT THIS: If 200 million Americans each refuse to buy just $20 of Chinese goods, that's a billion dollar trade imbalance resolved in our favor...fast!!

Most of the people who have been reading about this matter are planning on implementing this on Aug. 1st and continue it until Sept. 1st. That is only one month of trading losses, but it will hit the Chinese for 1/12th of the total, or 8%, of their American exports. Then they might have to ask themselves if the benefits of their arrogance and lawlessness were worth it.

Remember, August 1st to Sept. 1st !!!!!! START NOW.

If we can't live without cheap Chinese goods for one month out of our lives, WE DESERVE WHAT WE GET!

Pass it on, America ...
Well instead of doing it for just 1 month why not try to do it all the time.Save AMERICAN JOBS!

Greetings Friends and Family,

At our regular time on Wednesday, we have returning to the show, *New
York Times bestselling author*, *Frank **Schaeffer* discussing his
newest book, *SEX, MOM and GOD*: *How the Bible's Strange Take on Sex
Led to crazy Politics - and How I learned to Love Women (and Jesus)
Anyway. *Definitely we'll delve into the Right Wing's latest uptick of
rhetoric against Goddess, namely their war on Lady Libertas, Columbia
and Amaterasu.

Remember if you cannot listen at 6PM Pacific, you can always catch this
show or any other show later from the archives at your convenience! If
you can't tune in live and have questions, you can always email your
questions several days before showtime. Thanks for your input and
feedback. Comments are always welcome.
*
Coming in August....*

8/10 -- *Judika Illes.*...The Fox Sisters and Women's Influence on the
Birth of Spiritualism
8/24 -- *Jane Caputi*.... Professor of Women, Gender and Sexuality
Studies, author of The Age of Sex Crimes, Gossips, Gorgons and Crones:
the Fates of the Earth and Goddesses and Monsters: Women, Myth, Power
and Popular Culture discussing how patriarchal religion contributes to
disrespect for and violence against women and the Earth, her argument
that serial killers of women are terrorists, femicide, pornography and
how nuclear power as a form of female power -- and more!
8/31 -- *Jo Carson*...The Magic of Feraferia, celebrating the Wilderness
Mysteries with Faerie style, courtly elegance, refinement and grace.

*DID YOU MISS? *

_*Prof Pamela Berger*_, author of The Goddess Obscured will discussing
one of her chapters from her book dealing with the metamorphosis of the
Sacred Feminine From Grain Goddess to Saint. We'll delve into the three
films she wrote, produced and directed including the one titled
Sorceress, then if time allows, we'll discuss Bi-sexual deities, Women
Healers and Healing Sanctuaries.

_*Marguerite Rigoglioso*_ and *_Nancy Leatzow_* discussing bee
priestesses of Greece and India, the sacred bee, past and present, the
working beehive as a model for matriarchy and colony collapse disorder,
a response to patriarchy. We'll delve into the bee as it's associated
with hallucinogenic honey and how the bee is connected to prophecy and
altered states of consciousness. As an added treat, I've included some
beautiful and inspiring music of _*Layne Redmond*_ honoring the bees and
bee priestesses of ancient times.

_Check out my You Tube Clip on Eco-Feminist/Goddess Thealogy for a
Sustainable Future_

Goddess is a Democrat !! Imagine the feedback from that statement in my
interviews with Riane Eisler and Starhawk on my radio show, Voices of
the Sacred Feminine. But what were we really saying in that statement
that might not have been immediately evident? We were saying the
strategy to move us toward that paradigm shift, into a post-kyriarchal
world, would not just be the use of secular law, but through a change in
thealogy - the mythology of the Sacred Feminine, deity, archetype and
ideal, might re-establish the foundations on our planet necessary for
sustainable future for all life and Mother Earth. Hear the line of
thought....presented at the WECSOR/American Academy of Religion by Dr.
Rev. Karen Tate. For more info go to www.karentate.com
