Dear Planet Waves Reader:<\/p>\n

Tuesday’s chart for Pres. Obama signing the health insurance reform package settles at least one issue: what happened this week is in fact historically significant. After a century of failed proposals, speculation and hope, the U.S. has taken its first step toward all of its citizens having some form of health coverage. Many people have many issues with this law, but the page of history has turned.<\/p>\n

On Sept. 25, 1957, nine students are escorted into Central High by the 101st Airborne, deployed by Pres. Dwight D. Eisenhower. This was in keeping with the Supreme Court decision Brown v. Board of Education. At the time, the Sun was on the Aries Point, joined by Mars and Jupiter. Photo by A. Y. Owen for Time\/Life.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The at times stunning, at times embarrassing, at times agonizing partisan drama we’ve been witnessing for the past year, which continues this week (and indeed into the future), reveals the extreme polarization that has always characterized civil rights progress in the United States. Or more accurately, we’re getting another look at a vocal, angry, regressive minority whose position was best summed up a few days ago by Sarah Palin: “Don’t retreat, reload.”<\/p>\n

My sense is that at the moment, the country is divided into four camps. The first is the one saying this legislation is the rise of fascism because it expands the government and takes away individual rights (though I cannot figure out which). This view is held by a split-off from what is politely called the Republican base, now known as the Teabagger movement. These are the conservative hippies who use terms like baby killer and faggot when speaking to an activist nun or distinguished gay congressman. This week, some of the more passionate members of this movement have taken to throwing bricks through the windows of Democratic congressional representatives; there have been at least five such incidents so far, including one with death threats against the children of a congressional representative from New York. These appear to be part of a coordinated message that includes a lot of rhetoric about firearms and the crosshairs as a visual symbol. These are not people whose motto is “the pen is mightier than the sword” or even “a stitch in time saves nine.” Many actually have guns, and they want us to know it.<\/p>\n

\"Aries<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\nIn the film Waking Life<\/em>, the lead character finds himself in a lucid dream, from which he keeps waking up, into another dream. Each awakening arrives with a transformation, and with a new level of awareness, but he still cannot seem to actually come to full consciousness. Along the way he encounters many interesting people and continuously seeks out new knowledge, but a mystery persists, which is the mystery of what it means to be awake. There are some psychological theories consistent with his experience, defining consciousness itself as a trance. In these days of your life, I would propose that the measure of how awake you are is indicated by what you create. True enough, not everyone is the ‘creative type’ and we’re generally motivated to consume energy rather than to offer ourselves to the world in a sincere and daring way: which underscores my point.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
