Greetings and Salutations, America:
I've got a few things to discuss today, but I want to first start off by apologizing for missing eNPR last night. Unfortunately, I caught a case of RL that plagued me most of the day and into the evening, so I was unable to attend.
While on the topic of eNPR, I wanted to make sure everyone knows that former NPR News Director, Artela; has been promoted and will be replacing me as Executive Producer of the show. Artela has been a major contributor to the program as well as a regular co-host. I will continue to stay on as the primary Host of the program, but with alot of my eLife time being taking up by new a Cabinet appointment and the running of a Top Five party, I just don't have the time to contribute to the behind the scenes preparation needed to successfully run the program. Artela not only can, but has... and as the third Executive Producer of eNPR, I have no doubt the program will continue to move forward.
I want to personal thank Artela for stepping up to help continue the tradition of NPR.
Next I want to move on to my last article, XV: Take The Power Back. Having exchanged emails with a few people, including Lysander Spooner II - someone who I respect immensely - I am thinking most people miss the underlying message and I failed to objectively present my message.
It is true, I did fail to objectively present a message. To be honest, I usually present things from my viewpoint only. In that article, as a "member of the Oblige camp," I started off with the anger and butthurt with the Vanek camp. But as I said in a comment on that article:
Start off angry... Get over it... Help... Butthurtness gone... Work together as a united community instead of a divided one.
The viewpoint in the article comes from me, as one of Oblige's supporters...
Look at the flow of the article... I start off angry and butthurt, just like the SuperPfeinds... As the article goes on, I get over it, then call for us all to work together.
I am just as guilty as the SuperPfriends of being angry and butthurt. As Inwegen said in a post on the eUnited States forums:
You could replace the names/groups and it's equal. Both sides are in the wrong. Some have been more public about their refusal (and that part may be a bit more "childish" as rainy put it), but both sides have alienated friends and allies.
I'm not saying I, nor anyone on either side of this is right... We are ALL wrong. Now it is time to move on and work together in unity to continue to strengthen America.
THC: The Higher Calling is the new official military unit of the US Marijuana Party. It is not your ordinary "run-of-the-mill" MU. Instead, it will function as a hybrid militia/mentor program.
The idea is simple: forty communing members working in one of the party's companies will make supplies of Q5 food and Q6 weapons. This is possible thanks to the generosity of USMJ Vice President youngHOOD and a very good friend of mine, BattleKitteh. These forty members will be placed in the first and second regiments of the unit, and will be commanded by a Regiment Captain both in-game and in the meta-game. They will be supplied the weapons and food in exchange for their communing and will make up the militia aspect of THC.
The rest of the unit will be filled by non-communing members who will self-supply. The Regiment Commanders of those regiments will be active members of the party who will function as Mentors to help new Americans (and old) reach their full potential. They will not be supplied weapons but are elegable to receive 200 wellness daily from the party's OPERATION:MUNCHIES program.
We are looking to fill up the communes right now, so if you are looking to get more involved with a fighting force, please fill out this form or send me a message directly.
The one true "god" in game, Plato offers a chance to upgrade your companies at a discounted rate right now. If you have saved gold, this is a great opportunity for you. You can either upgrade, like I did; or sell your gold for a nice profit as the cost of gold has skyrocketed.
Finally, I would like to thank the many people in this game who helped me celebrate my RL birthday last Sunday. In the end, I was gifted;
• 270 Q6 Super Tanks
• 550 Q5 Food
• 101 Q1 Food
• 20 Gold
• 0.01 HRK
• COUNTLESS SHOUTS WISHING ME A HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

I REALLY appreciate your addendum in this article. You are a player that a lot of people look up to, myself, included. And as such, I feel that objective reporting is an essential way to set an example for the other people who play this game. And even when something is written from one's own viewpoint, objectivity is still possible. If I want to read a biased article, I have my local RL newspaper to turn to. =^)
Voted

Jude Connors is a true eAmerican Patriot, more so now than when I joined eRep over two years ago. Good luck with the MU start-up, and all of your endeavors, online and RL.
Regarding Butthurt in general, there are a few more 'Humpty Dumpty's' that have yet to be shoved off their walls of failure before we as an eNation can truly consider ourselves unified...
I need friends like that, ones who just give me poop loads of tanks for special occasions...
Internet radio is cooler.
The more I smoke, the higher I get, the better I feel, I can't quit. \o/
You should have two MUs: THC and CBD. CBD would be the MU for those of a more "laid back" personality type.
