Cooper's hawk in Library of Congress Wednesday, January 26, 2011

Hawk is a messenger to native peoples,  akin to mercury ruler of words and communication.
Hawk medicine-teaches us to be observant. Observe the obvious in everything.
Hawk magic- you are as powerful as your capacity to perceive, receive, and use your ability's!
Hawk's call pierces the state of unawareness and asks you to seek truth, to ask our self, what is really going on here?With all the revolution/evolution happening in the Middle East for democracy, we in this country are trying to hold on to this ideal. The changes made to the constitution of this country  with The Supreme Court decision Citizen United v Federal Election Commission, 130 s.ct. 876 (2010), giving corporations the same rights as people, now legally allows corporations to dump loads of money into buying people/ politicians who will fight against worker's rights increasing the profits and power of the corporations. President Barrack Obama stated that the decision "gives the special interests and their lobbyist even more power in Washington- while undermining the influence of average Americans who make small contributions to support their preferred candidates."Obama also stated "this ruling strikes at our democracy itself and I can't think of anything more devastating to the public interest". On January 27, 2010, Obama further condemned the decision during the 2010 state of the union address, stating that,"Last week, the Supreme Court reversed a century of law to open the flood gates for special interest- including foreign corporations- to spend without limit in our elections. Well i don't think American elections should be bankrolled by America's most powerful interest, or worse, by foreign entities."
The influence of that decision can now be seen manifesting in Madison Wisconsin and other states  between the people and Scott Walker over collective bargaining rights, According to Wisconsin campaign finance fillings, Walker's gubernatorial campaign received $43,000 from the Koch industries PAC during the 2010 elections.He then got punked by a reporter pretending to be David Koch.

Governor walker made it clear in this video who he working for during this conversation! Although we have a so called democracy in this country it is clear it is being undermined by the Citizen United v Federal Election Commission, 130S.CT.876 (2010) decision allowing corporation to support candidates by contributing loads of money to candidates and their campaigns, who will then work toward deregulating and undermining protection for workers, people and the environment for profit.
The ever-widening disparities between the rich and the poor, between the powerful and powerless, and who goes to jail for crimes and who doesn't is undeniably evidenced by the fact that not one banker or broker has been jailed for the Great Wall Street Robbery of 2008. The fact that not one person has been held accountable for the sub prime mortgage fraud precipitating our economic melt down, and the public complacent embrace of thirty years of deregulation for banks and corporations, and tax advantages for corporations and the wealthy speaks to the demise of democracy in this country!
Hawk teaches us to observe the obvious!
