第一篇:Wentworth Miller西雅图人权战线HRC演讲

Thank you!

First and foremost, I wanna personally thank the human rights campaign for the incredible work that they’ve done and the work they continue to do.Not only here in Washington State but across the country and around the world, as we all know, this work is critical.It’s life-changing.It’s life-saving.It is my great honor and privilege to be here tonight, to count myself a member of this community.It is also something of a surprise.I’ve had a complicated relationship with that word “community”.I’ve been slow to embrace it.I’ve been hesitant.I’ve been doubtful.For many years, I could not or would not accept that there was anything in that word for someone like me, like connection, support, strength, warmth.And there are reasons for that.I wasn’t born in this country.I didn’t grow up in any one particular religion.I have a mixed race background.And I’m gay.Really, it just your typical all American boy next door.It’s been natural to see myself as an individual.It’s been challenge to imagine myself as part of something larger.Like many of you here tonight, I grow up in what I would call “survival mode”.When you are in survival mode, you focus is on getting through the day in one piece.When you are in that mode at five, at ten, at fifteen, there isn’t a lot of space for words like community, for words like us and we.There’s only space for I and me.In fact, words like us and we not only sound foreign to me at five, and ten, and fifteen, they sounded like a lie.Because if us and we really existed, if there was really someone out there watching, and listening and caring, then I would have been rescued by now.That feeling of being singular, different and alone carried over my twentieth, and then to my thirtieth.When I was thirty-three, I started working on a TV show that was successful not only here in the states but also abroad, which meant over the next four years, I was traveling to Asia, to the middle east, to Europe and everywhere in between.And in that time, I gave thousands of interviews.I have multiple opportunities to speak my truth which is that I was gay.But I chose not to.I was out privately to family and friends, to the people I learnt to trust over time, but professionally, publicly I was not.As to choose between being out of integrity and out of the closet, I chose the former, I chose to lie, I chose to dissemble.Because when I thought about the possibility of coming out, about how that might impact me and the career that I worked so hard for, I was filled with fear, fear and anger, and the stubborn resistance that have built up over many years.When I thought about that kids somewhere out there who might be inspired or moved by me taking a stand, speaking my truth, my mental response was consistently “no, thank you”.I thought I’ve spent over a decade building this career, alone, by myself.And from a certain point of view, it’s all I have.But now I’m suppose to put that at risk, to be a role model to someone I’ve never met, who I’m not even sure exists.It didn’t make any sense to me.I did not resignate at that time.Also like many of you here tonight, growing up I was a target.Speaking the right way, standing the right way, holding your wrist the right way.Everyday was a test, there was a thousand ways to fail, a thousand way to betray yourself, to not live up to someone else’s standard of what was acceptable, of what was normal.And when you failed the test, which was guaranteed, there was a price to pay, emotional, psychological, physical.And like many of you, I paid that price, more than once and in a variety of ways.The first time I tried to kill myself, I was fifteen.I waited until my family went away for the weekend and I was alone in the house and I swallowed a bottle of pills.I don’t remember what happened over the next couple of days, but I’m pretty sure come Monday morning, I was on the bus back to school, pretending everything was fine.And when someone asked if that was a cry for help, I say no.Because I told no one.You only cry for help if you believe there is help to cry for.And I didn’t, I want it out, I want it gone, at fifteen.I and me can be a lonely place and it’ll only get you so far.By 2011, I made the decision to walk away from acting and many of the things I previously believed so important, to me.And after giving up the scripts and sets which I was dreamt I was a child, and the resulting attention and scrutiny which I had not dreamt of as a child.The only thing I have left with was what I have when I started.I and me.And it was not enough.In 2012, I joined a man’s group called mankind project, which is a man’s group for all man.I was introduced to the still foreign and still potentially threatening concepts of “us and we”, to the idea of brotherhood, sisterhood and community.And it is via that community that I became a member and proud supporter of the human rights campaign.And it was via this community that I learnt more about the persecution of my LGBT brothers and sisters in Russia.Several weeks ago, when I was drafting my letter to Saint Petersburg International Film Festival declining their invitation to attend, a small nagging voice in my head insisted that no one would notice, that no one was watching, or listening, or caring.But this time, finally, I knew that voice was wrong.I thought even one person notice this, this letter in which I speak my truth and integrate my small story into a much larger and more important one.It’s worth sending.I thought let me be to someone else what no one was to me.Let me send the message to that kid, maybe in America, maybe someplace far overseas, maybe somewhere deep inside, a kid who’s been targeted at home or school or in the streets, that someone is watching and listening and caring, that there is an “us”, that there is a “we”, and that kid or teenager of adult is loved.And they are not alone.I’m deeply grateful to the human rights campaign for giving me and others like me the opportunity and the platform and the imperative to tell my story, to continue sending that message because it needs to be sent, over and over again, until it’s been heard and received and embraced.Not just here in Washington State, not just across the country but around the world and then back again.Just in case, just in case we missed someone.Thank you!

For Immediate Release May 10, 2012

Remarks by the President at a Campaign Event--Seattle, WA

Paramount Theater Seattle, Washington 3:00 P.M.PDT THE PRESIDENT: Hello, Seattle!Thank you.(Applause.)Thank you.Thank you very much.Thank you, Seattle!Thank you.(Applause.)Thank you so much.Thank you.Thank you.Thank you, guys.Thank you, everybody.Please, please, have a seat.Thank you.(Applause.)Thank you.Thank you very much.Thank you.Thank you, guys.(Applause.)Thank you very much.It’s good to be back in Seattle.(Applause.)A few people I want to acknowledge.First of all, please give a big round of applause to Sue for that unbelievable story, the great introduction, her incredible courage.(Applause.)She is just a wonderful person.And I was saying backstage as I was listening, she’s the kind of story that you don’t read about in the papers.That’s a story I’d like to read about--(applause)--somebody overcoming so many challenges, doing the right thing.And I could not be prouder to have her introduce me.A couple of other folks that are here today that I want to acknowledge--your outstanding Governor, Chris Gregoire.(Applause.)Your outstanding Lieutenant Governor, Brad Owen is here.(Applause.)One of the best United States Senators in the country, Patty Murray is in the house.(Applause.)Former U.S.Representative and soon-to-be governor, Jay Inslee is here.(Applause.)I want to thank King County executive Dow Constantine.(Applause.)My terrific friend, former King County executive and somebody who did great work for us at HUD in Washington, Ron Sims.(Applause.)State party chair, Dwight Pelz.(Applause.)And of course, somebody who I just love and I’m just such a huge fan of because he’s a great person in addition to being a great musician, Dave Matthews.(Applause.)AUDIENCE MEMBER: I love you!THE PRESIDENT:(Laughter.)I love you, too.(Applause.)So, Seattle, I’m here not just because I need your help--although I do;you’ll hear more about that.I’m here because your country needs your help.There was a reason why so many of you worked your hearts out in 2008.And it wasn’t because you thought it would be easy.You did support a candidate named Barack Hussein Obama.The odds are rarely in your favor in that situation.(Laughter.)You didn’t need a poll to tell you that might not be a sure thing.You did not join the campaign because of me.You came together--we came together--because of a shared vision.We came together to reclaim that basic bargain that built the largest middle class and the most prosperous nation on Earth.We came together because we believed that in America, your success shouldn’t be determined by the circumstances of your birth.If you’re willing to work hard, you should be able to find a good job.If you’re meeting your responsibilities, you should be able to own a home, maybe start a business.You should be able to give your kids the chance to do even better than you--no matter who you are, no matter where you come from, no matter what you look like, no matter what your last name, no matter who you love.(Applause.)And so we came together.This wasn’t just about me;this was you guys making a commitment to each other to try to bring about change because our country had strayed from these basic values.We’d seen a record surplus that was squandered on tax cuts for people who didn’t need them and weren’t even asking for them.Two wars were being waged on a credit card.Wall Street speculators reaped huge profits by making bets with other people’s money.Manufacturing was leaving our shores.A shrinking number of Americans did fantastically well, but a lot more people struggled with falling incomes and rising costs and the slowest job growth in a century.So it was a house of cards, and it collapsed in the most destructive, worst crisis that we’ve seen since the Great Depression.And sometimes people forget the magnitude of it, you know? And you saw some of that I think in the video that was shown.Sometimes I forget.In the last six months of 2008, while we were campaigning, nearly 3 million of our neighbors lost their jobs;800,000 lost their jobs in the month that I took office.And it was tough.But the American people proved they were tougher.So we didn't quit.We kept going.Together we fought back.When my opponent said we should just let Detroit go bankrupt, we made a bet on American workers, on the ingenuity of American companies, and today our auto industry is back on top of the world.(Applause.)We saw manufacturers start to invest in America again, consistently adding jobs for the first time since the 1990s.Businesses got back to basics, created over 4 million jobs in the last 26 months-– more than 1 million of those in the last six months alone.(Applause.)So we’re making progress.Are we satisfied? Of course not.Too many of our friends, too many of our family are still out there looking for work.Too many homes are still underwater.Too many states are still laying off teachers and first responders.A crisis this deep didn’t happen overnight, and we understand it won’t be solved overnight.We’ve got more work to do.We know that.But here’s what else we know: That the last thing we can afford is a return to the policies that got us here in the first place.Not now.Not with so much at stake.(Applause.)We’ve come too far to abandon the changes that we fought for these past few years.We’ve got to move forward, to the future that we imagined in 2008--where everybody gets a fair shot, and everybody is doing their fair share, and everybody plays by the same rules.That’s the choice in this election.And Seattle, that’s why I’m running for a second term as President of the United States of America.(Applause.)

Now, my opponent in this election, Governor Romney, he's a patriotic American.He’s raised a wonderful family.He should be proud of the great personal success he's had as the CEO of a large financial firm.But I think he’s drawn the wrong lessons from those experiences.He actually believes that if CEOs and the wealthiest investors like him get rich, that the rest of us automatically do, too.(Laughter.)When a woman in Iowa shared the story of her financial struggles, he gave an answer right out of an economics textbook.He said, “Our productivity equals our income,” as if the only reason people can’t pay their bills is because they’re not productive enough.Well, that’s not what’s going on.Most of us who have spent some time talking to people understand that the problem isn’t that the American people aren’t working hard enough, aren’t productive enough-– you’ve been working harder than ever.The challenge we face right now-– the challenge we’ve faced for over a decade-– is that harder work isn’t leading to higher incomes.Bigger profits haven’t led to better jobs.What Governor Romney does not seem to get is that a healthy economy doesn’t just mean maximizing your own profits through massive layoffs or busting unions.You don’t make America stronger by shipping jobs or profits overseas.(Applause.)When you propose cutting your own taxes while raising them on 18 million families, that’s not a recipe for economic growth.And by the way, there’s nothing new about these ideas.I’m just starting to pay a little more attention to this campaign here, and--(laughter)--I keep on waiting for them to offer up something new.But it’s just the same old stuff.(Laughter.)It’s the same agenda that they have been pushing for years.It’s the same agenda that they implemented when they were last in charge of the White House--although, as Bill Clinton pointed out a few weeks ago, this time their agenda is on steroids.(Laughter.)This time they want even bigger tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.This time they want even deeper cuts to things like education and Medicare and research and technology.AUDIENCE: Booo--THE PRESIDENT: This time they want to give banks and insurance companies even more power to do as they please.AUDIENCE: Booo--THE PRESIDENT: Now, somehow they think that these same bad ideas will lead to different results than they did the last time--or they’re hoping you won’t remember what happened the last time when we tried their bad ideas.(Laughter.)Well, I’m here to say, Seattle, that we were there.We remember.We're not going back there.We're moving this country forward.(Applause.)We're moving forward.We're moving forward.(Applause.)Look, we don’t expect government to solve all our problems--and it shouldn’t try to solve all our problems.I learned from my mom that no education policy can take the place of a parent’s love and

attention, and occasionally, getting in your face.(Laughter.)As a young man, I worked with a group of Catholic churches who taught me that no poverty program can make as much of a difference as the kindness and commitment of a caring soul.(Applause.)And Democrats, we have to remember some things.Not every regulation is smart.Not every tax dollar is spent wisely.Not every person can be helped who refuses to help themselves.We believe in individual responsibility.But that’s not an excuse to tell the vast majority of responsible, hardworking Americans--folks like Sue who've done all the right things--“you’re on your own.” That if you're--had the misfortune, like most people do, of having parents who may not be able to lend you all the money you need for college, that you may not be able to go to college.(Applause.)That even if you pay your premiums every month, you’re out of luck if an insurance company decides to drop your coverage when you need it most.(Applause.)That’s not who we are.That’s not what built this country.That's not reflective of what's best in us.We built this country together.We built railroads and highways, we built the Hoover Dam and the Golden Gate Bridge--we built those things together.We sent my grandfather’s generation to college on the GI Bill-– together.We did these things not because they benefited any particular individual, any particular group;we did these things because we were building a platform for everybody to be able to succeed.We were creating the conditions for everybody to be able to succeed.These things made us all richer.They gave us all opportunity.(Applause.)They moved us all together, all forward, as one nation, and as one people.And that’s the true lesson of our past.We love the free market.We believe in rewarding entrepreneurship and risk.But when I hear my opponent and some of these folks talk as if somehow nobody had anything to do with the success of these businesses and our entrepreneurs, I have to remind them that we--we the people--invested in creating the Internet that allowed Microsoft and Google and Facebook to thrive.There's not a business in this country that's not benefiting from roads and bridges and airports--the investments we make together.Every time we've got a kid who's getting a great education in a public school and able to go to get an outstanding education at a public university, we're contributing to the possibilities of the free market succeeding.And that’s the right vision for our future.That’s the reason I'm running for President, because I believe in that vision.I believe in that vision.(Applause.)I’m running to make sure that by the end of this decade, more of our citizens hold college degrees than any other nation on Earth.I want that to happen here in America.(Applause.)I want to help our schools hire and reward the best teachers, especially in math and science.(Applause.)I want to give 2 million more Americans the chance to go to community colleges and learn the skills that local businesses are looking for right now, because that's what we need in the 21st century.(Applause.)Higher education can’t be a luxury.Education is--higher education is an imperative that every American should be able to afford--not just for young people but for mid-career folks who have to retrain, have to upgrade their skills.That’s the choice in this election.That’s why I’m running for President.I’m running to make sure that the next generation of high-tech manufacturing takes root in places like Seattle and Cleveland and Pittsburgh and Charlotte.I want to stop rewarding businesses that ship jobs

and profits overseas.I want to reward companies that are creating jobs here in the United States of America.That’s the choice in this election.(Applause.)I am running so that we can keep moving forward to a future where we control our own energy.Our dependence on foreign oil is at the lowest point it's been in 16 years.(Applause.)Because of the actions we took, by the middle of the next decade our cars will average nearly 55 miles per gallon.(Applause.)Thousands of Americans have jobs because the production of renewable energy in this country has nearly doubled in just three years.So now is not the time to--(applause)--now is not the time to cut these investments to pay for $4 billion a year in giveaways to the oil companies.Now is not--now is the time to end subsidies for an industry that's just doing fine on its own.Let’s double down on clean energy that's never been more promising for our economy and for our security and for the safety of our planet.That's why I’m running, Seattle, and that's the choice in this election.(Applause.)For the first time in nine years, there are no Americans fighting in Iraq.(Applause.)Osama bin Laden is no longer a threat to this country.Al Qaeda is on the path to defeat.And by 2014, the war in Afghanistan will be over.(Applause.)America is safer and it’s more respected because of the courage and selflessness of our diplomats and our intelligence officers, but most of all, because of the United States armed Forces.(Applause.)And as long as I’m Commander-in-Chief, this country will care for our veterans, and we will serve our veterans as well as they’ve served us because no one who fights for this country should have to fight for a job or a roof over their heads when they come home.(Applause.)My opponent has a different view.He said it was “tragic” to end the war in Iraq.He says he won’t set a timeline for ending the war in Afghanistan.I have set a timeline, and I intend to keep it.(Applause.)After a decade of war that’s cost us thousands of lives, that's cost us over a trillion dollars, the nation we need to build is our own.(Applause.)So we’re going to use half of what we’re no longer spending on war to pay down the deficit, and we’re going to--(applause)--we’re going to invest the rest in research and education, and repairing our roads and our bridges and our runways and our wireless networks.That's the choice in this election.(Applause.)And I’m running to pay down our debt in a way that is balanced and a way that's responsible.After inheriting a trillion-dollar deficit, I signed $2 trillion of spending cuts into law.And now I want to finish the job responsibly and properly, streamlining government, cutting more waste--there’s still more there to be had--but also reforming our tax code so that it’s simpler and fairer and it asks the wealthiest Americans to pay a little bit more.(Applause.)My opponent won’t tell us how he'd pay for his new, $5 trillion tax cut –-a tax cut that gives an average of $250,000 to every millionaire in the country.AUDIENCE Booo--THE PRESIDENT: So we may not know the details, but we know the bill for that tax cut will either be passed on to our children, or it’s going to be paid by a whole lot of ordinary Americans.And I refuse to let that happen again.(Applause.)We’re not going to pay for another millionaire’s tax cut by eliminating medical research projects into things like ovarian cancer or Alzheimer’s.I refuse to pay for another tax cut by kicking children out of Head Start programs, or asking students to pay more for college, or eliminating health insurance for millions of poor, and elderly, and disabled Americans on Medicaid.(Applause.)And as long as I’m President of the United States, I’m not going to allow Medicare to be turned into a voucher that would end the program as we know it.(Applause.)We’ll reform Medicare, not by shifting costs to seniors but by reducing the spending that isn’t making people healthier.There are ways of doing it that preserve this program that is so vital to so many people.So Seattle, that’s what’s at stake.There’s a lot at stake.On issue after issue, we can’t afford to spend the next four years going backwards.America doesn’t need to re-fight the battles we just had over Wall Street reform or health care reform.Listen to Sue.Here’s what I know: Allowing 2.5 million young people to stay on their parents’ health insurance plan--that was the right thing to do.(Applause.)Cutting prescription drug costs for seniors--right thing to do.(Applause.)We’re not going back to the days when insurance companies had unchecked power to cancel your policy, or deny you coverage, or charge women differently from men.We’re not going back.We’re going forward.(Applause.)We don’t need another political fight about ending a woman’s right to choose, or getting rid of Planned Parenthood--(applause)--or taking away access to affordable birth control.I want women to control their own health choices.(Applause.)Just like I want my daughters to have the same economic opportunities as your sons.We’re not going to turn back the clock.(Applause.)We’re not turning back the clock.We’re not returning to the days when you could be kicked out of the United States military just because of who you are and who you love.(Applause.)We’re moving this country forward.We are moving forward to a country where every American is treated with dignity and with respect.And here in Washington you’ll have the chance to make your voice heard on the issue of making sure that everybody, regardless of sexual orientation, is treated fairly.You will have a chance to weigh in on this.(Applause.)We are a nation that treats people fairly.We’re not going backwards.We’re not going backwards.We’re going forwards.(Applause.)We’re going forward.We’re going forward, where everybody--everybody is treated with dignity and respect.We will not allow another election where multimillion-dollar donations speak louder than the voices of ordinary citizens.(Applause.)

And it’s time to stop denying citizenship to responsible young people just because they’re children of undocumented immigrants.(Applause.)This country is at its best when we harness the God-given talents of every individual;when we hear every voice;when we come together as one American family--black, white, Hispanic, Asian, Native American, gay, straight, disabled--everybody striving for the same dream.That’s what we’re fighting for.That’s why I ran for President.That's why I’m running again for President.That’s why I need your help.(Applause.)You know, Seattle, this election is actually going to be even closer than the last.And the reason for that is too many of our friends and neighbors, they're still hurting because of this crisis.And they see what’s going on in Washington, and they don't like it, and so there’s just a frustration level there that will express itself in the election.And I hear it from too many people who are wondering why they haven’t been able to get one of the jobs that have been created.Because even if jobs have been created, until you got a job, that jobs report doesn't mean much.They're wondering why their home is still underwater, or why their family hasn’t been touched by the recovery.So there’s still a lot of--a lot of work to be done.And folks are just--they get so frustrated about Washington.And as I said, the other side, they're not going to--the other side will not be offering these Americans a real answer to their questions.They’re not offering a better vision.They're not offering a new set of ideas.Everybody knows that.There’s nothing you’ve heard from them where you say, man, I didn't think of that.(Laughter.)Now, that's fresh.That's new.Maybe that will work.(Laughter.)That's not what’s going on here.What they will be doing is spending more money than we’ve ever seen before on negative ads –-ads that exploit people’s frustration for some short-term political gain.Over and over again, they’ll tell you America is down and out.America is not working.They’ll say, are you better off than you were--without mentioning that their frame of reference is before the worst crisis in our lifetime.We’ve seen this play before.And here’s the thing, the real question, the question that we have to answer, the question that will actually make a difference in your life and the lives of your children and the lives of your grandchildren-– it's not just about how we’re doing today.It’s about how we’re doing tomorrow and the next day and the day after that.Will we be better off if more Americans get a better education? Will we be better off if we reduce our dependence on foreign oil? Will we be better off if we start doing some nation-building here at home? Will we be better off if we're investing in clean energy? Will we be better off if we ask the wealthiest Americans to pay their fair share? Will we be better off if we invest in new research and science and technology? When we look back four years from now, or 10 years from now, or 20 years from now, won’t we be better off if we have the courage to keep moving forward? AUDIENCE: Yes!

THE PRESIDENT: That’s the question in this election.(Applause.)That's the question in this election.And that outcome is entirely up to you.You’ll have to contend with even more negative ads, with more cynicism, more nastiness--sometimes just plain foolishness.(Laughter.)But if there’s one thing that we learned the last time around, one thing we learned in 2008, there is nothing more powerful than millions of voices calling for change.(Applause.)When you knock on doors;when you pick up the phone;when you talk to your friends;when you decide it’s time for change to happen, guess what? Change happens.Change comes to America.(Applause.)And that’s the spirit that we need again.If people ask you what this campaign is about, you tell them it’s still about hope.You tell them it’s still about change.You tell them it’s still about ordinary people who believe that in the face of great odds, we can make a difference in the life of this country.(Applause.)Because I still believe, Seattle.I still believe.I still believe we're not as divided as our politics suggest.I still believe that we have more common ground than the pundits tell us.I believe we're not Democrats or Republicans first;I think we're Americans first.(Applause.)I still believe in you.(Applause.)I still believe in you, and that's why I’m asking you to still believe in me.(Applause.)I told you in 2008 that I wasn’t a perfect man--maybe Michelle told you.(Laughter.)And I won’t be a perfect President.But I promised back when I was running that first time that I’d always tell you what I thought, and I’d always tell you where I stood, and I’d wake up every single day fighting as hard as I know how for you.(Applause.)And Seattle, I kept that promise.I have kept that promise, and I will keep it as long as I have the honor of being your President.(Applause.)So if you’re willing to stick with me, if you’re willing to fight with me, if you’re willing to work even harder this election than the last one, I guarantee you we will move this country forward.(Applause.)We will finish what we started.I’m still fired up.I’m still ready to go.And we will show the world why it is that the United States of America is the greatest nation on Earth.Thank you, everybody.God bless you.

第三篇:国土战线老干部事迹演讲

国土战线老干部事迹演讲

老牛悉知光阴短,不用扬鞭自奋蹄

尊敬的各位领导,各位同行:

我叫万朝新,今年五十二岁,中共党员,是1987年进入国土战线的一个老兵,现任津市市白衣镇国土管理站站长。这幺多年来,尤其是任站长以来,我珍惜有限的时光落实“守土”的责任,贴心为基层群众服务,并注意带队及培养年轻人,受到了普遍称赞。几年来,我们站年年被评为先进单位,去年2月还受到了市局的表彰。下面我就将近几年来的思想和工作情况,向各位领导和同志们做个汇报。

一、忠于职守,当好土地资源的坚强“卫士”

我是在国土资源管理体制改革后担任站长的,当时已年近半百。在年轻人吃香的年代,我一个快退休的老倌子被推上了国土管理的最前沿阵地。我知道这是个官不大但责任大、权不重但担子重的差使,感到压力很大。我心里暗自发誓:要不辱使命,切实履行好守土职责,当好土地“卫士”。

实践中我体会到,要当好土地“卫士”,首先是要凭借一颗赤诚之心。即忠诚于党和人民,忠诚于国土资源事业。我是一名有着20多年党龄的老党员,尽管文化水平不高,但有着强烈的事业心、。

我少管。还说我屁股没坐热,不懂(官场)潜规则。意识是我不听话就要把我的站长“抹”了。听了这番话,我心里也有气,但想到国土工作还需要镇党委、政府支持,不能把关系搞僵。我便改变方法,一边请出了一手提拔他的老领导,从关心爱护的角度提醒他要依法办事;另一边去做老板的工作,告诉他这是符合规划的用地,加一点钱,完善征用、出让审批手续,就完全合法了,不然今后与村里的麻纱扯不清。老板说就是因为差钱,还要去借贷款。我问他:你不办手续没有土地使用证,拿什幺抵押啊?老板一听直拍后脑壳,恍然大悟。从而使这件事得到了圆满解决,那位领导也跟我表示歉意,至今一直非常支持站里的工作。

二、勤勤恳恳,甘做人民群众的“老黄牛”

国土资源工作要上水平,光靠简单的管理是不够的,只有热忱服务,做出成绩,让党委、政府和人民群众信你服你,工作才好开展。几年来我一直要求自己和站里的同志:要以“老黄牛”的精神,吃苦耐劳,坚韧不拔,为经济发展服务,为人民群众服务。

服务人民关键是要把人民群众的利益放在高于一切的位置。我镇石板滩东街有一处滑坡地质灾害隐患点,就象卡在我喉咙里的一根鱼刺,一到汛期,我就吃不好饭,睡不着觉,每天都要过问那里的情况。在上级治理资金不能及时到位的情况下,我转向做村组、农户的工作,并拿出了切实可行的治理方案,通过两个月的宣传发动,终于在2006年春节期间,利用外出打工的青壮年回家过年的机会,组织了50多名劳动力,苦战半个月,移土石近2000方,彻底解决了问题。站里为农民建房代办审批手续,每户只收几块钱的工本费,我们至少要跑两次市里,还不够路费钱,有一段时间,站里经费很紧张,有同志提出是不是可以考虑涨一点,我当即坚决反对:没钱什幺径路都可以想,就是不能向农民伸手。即使对违法用地的农户,我也在制止的同时,帮助想办法,通过合理选址,办理手续,让他们能够尽快地盖好新房。这幺多年来,我一有时间就到各个村转一转,了解农民兄弟对国土部门的意见,既宣传了政策,又加深了感情。在白衣不管我走到哪里,村民们见到我都喊我“万哥”,遇到时间都要拉我吃饭。镇领导都晓得我的人缘好,碰到麻烦事总喜欢把我拉去做工作。

06年皂市水库移民耕地占补项目在我镇长安村实施。由于现在村里留守的都是613899部队(老人、儿童、妇女),思想工作不好做,认为动了他们的责任山,动工时几十人围着推土机,要求给个说法,村组干部阻拦不住。我得知后立即赶到现场,往推土机上一站,还没讲几句,乡亲们就不再霸蛮了,他们说:大道理俺不懂,但既然“万哥”来了,肯定不会害我们,就给个面子。我认为这不仅是人民群众给我个人的信任,更是对我们国土部门的信任,是我们用真诚热情的服务赢得的结果。后来这个项目新增耕地800多亩,我又积极联系已退休的原湘西自治洲建委主任田继续同志,引进了青蒿种植项目,去年半成品销售价格每吨7000多元,把老百姓高兴得合不拢嘴,说:现在打工都不用出门了。

镇里搞新农村建设,我们站里主动请战,提供规划设计的基础资料,配合专业部门进行村庄、通村公路的设计,承担了农民新居和基础设施的质量监督工作,而且全部是无偿服务,不收一分钱。由于日常工作比较多,我们就白天跑外边,晚上搞设计,得到了镇党委、政府的高度赞扬,大会小会都要提到国土站,还给我们拨了2万块钱。

三、身体力行,培养国土事业的“千里马”

2003年,我们站里一共有5名同志,除一名老站长,其它都是新手。我想自己快50岁的人,工作时间没得好久了,今后的事业需要年轻人来发扬光大。就把培养年轻同志当成了工作的一项主要任务。虽然理论知识上帮不上多少忙,但实践经验、工作作风还是对他们有用的。我从最基本的知识开始,手把手地教他们开展工作;身体力行,以一个共产党员的标准,处处模范带头,帮助他们成长进步。

凡是艰苦的工作,我都走在前头。

第四篇:哈维尔关于主权与人权的演讲

人权高于国家主权——哈维尔

发信站: 小百合BBS(Sun Oct 30 23:33:26 2005)

1999年4月29日 在加拿大国会的演说

尊敬的总理、参议长、众议长、参议员、众议员,各位来宾:

能在这里演说,我的确感到非常荣幸。我愿借此机会就国家及其可能在未来的地位说 一些看法。

所有迹象表明,作为每个民族共同体的发展顶峰与人类的最高价值----事实上这是可 以为其杀人或值得为它而死的唯一价值----的民族国家,已经越过了其最高顶点而开始走 下坡路。

若干代追求民主人士所从事的启蒙事业,两次世界大战的可怕经历,对於制订世界人 权宣言以及人类文明的全面发展,作出了非常重要的贡献,似乎正逐渐使人类认识到,人 比某一国家更为重要。

在当今世界,国家主权的偶像一定会逐渐消解。当今这个世界透过在商业、金融、财 产,直到信息方面的数以百万计的整合性联系,将各国人民联为一体;这种联系还提供了 各种普遍观念和文化模式。而且,在当今的世界,对一些人的危险会立即影响到其他所有 人;由於许多原因,特别是由於科学技术的巨大进展,我们各自的命运已融合为一种单一 的命运;无论我们喜欢与否,我们都要对发生的一切承担责任。

显然,在这样一个世界里,盲目热爱自己的国家,把爱国置於至高无上地位,仅仅因 为它是自己国家而为它的任何行动寻找借口,仅仅是因为不是自己国家而反对其他国家的 任何行动,这种爱国必然变成一种危险的时代颠倒,一种产生冲突的温床,最终会成为无 数人类苦难的源泉。

我认为,在下一个世纪,大多数国家将开始从那种类似邪教团体的、诉诸情感的实体,转变为更为简单的、公民享有更多管理权力的单位。这种单位将拥有较小的权力,但它 更富於理性,它仅仅是一个复杂的、多层次的、社会自我管理的全球组织的层次之一。这 种转变,要求我们逐渐抛弃那种互不干预的观念,即那种认为其他国家发生的事,其他国 家对人权尊重与否,与己无关的观念。

谁来承担现在由国家行使的多种功能呢?

首先来看国家在诉诸情感方面的功能。我认为,这些功能将被更平等地分配给组成人 类同一性的多层次的领域,即人类活动於其中的多层次领域,也就是我们看作自己家园或 自然界的各种领域,家庭、公司、村庄、城镇、地区、专业、教会、协会,以及我们所在 的大陆和我们居住的行星----地球。所有这些组成我们的自我认同的多种环境。而且,迄 今已膨胀过度的我们与自己国家间的连系如果受到削弱,这必定有利於其他领域。

至於国家的实际职责与法律制度,可以向上和向下转移。向下转移是指国家应该把其 现行的许多职权,逐步转移给公民社会的各种组织和机构。向上转移是指国家把其许多职 权,转移给各种地区性的、跨国的和全球性的团体和组织。这种职权转移现已开始进行。在某些地区,这种转移已走得相当远;在另一些地区则进展较小。

然而,由於许多原因,这种发展趋势必须沿著这条道路继续发展下去。如果界定现代 民主国家的特徵,通常包括尊重人权和自由、公民平等、法治和公民社会,那麽作为人类 未来目标的这种生存方式,或者人类为自己的生存而应该朝著它前进的生存方式,也许可 以被界定为一种以世界性或全球性的尊重人权、世界性的公民平等、世界性的法治和全球 性的公民社会为基础的生存方式。

民族国家建立过程中伴随的一个重要问题是国家的地理边界,即其疆界的确定。无数 的因素,包括种族的、历史的、文化的因素,地理因素,权力利益,以及整个文明状态,都在其中起著重要作用。

建立地区性或跨国性的更大共同体,有时会遇到同样的问题。在某种程度上,这种问 题可能从加入共同体的民族国家那里继承而来。我们应该用一切力量来保护这一自我界定 的过程不会像民族国家的建立过程那麽痛苦。

例如,加拿大和捷克现在是同一防御性组织--北大西洋公约组织的成员。这是一个具 有历史重要意义的发展过程,即北约扩展到中欧和东欧国家的结果。这一过程的重要性在 於,它是为了打破铁幕、在真实上而不仅在口头上废除雅尔塔协议,所迈出的真正严肃的、历史上不可逆转的第一步。

众所周知,这一扩展过程远非容易,而且是在两极对立的世界结束十年後才成为现实。进展如此困难的原因之一,是由於俄罗斯联邦的反对。他们对此不理解而且十分担心: 为何西方要向俄罗斯附近国家扩展,而不接纳俄罗斯?如果我在此刻撇开所有其他动机,俄罗斯的这种态度暴露了一个非常有趣的问题,即俄罗斯世界或东方世界对自己的地理疆 界不清楚。北约与俄罗斯结成夥伴的前提条件是:地球上存在著两个对等的强大实体,即 欧洲-大西洋实体和广袤的欧洲-亚洲实体。这两个实体可以而且必须相互携手合作,这对 全世界有利。但之所以能这样做是因为双方都意识到自己的身份,都知道自己的范围在何 处。在这个问题上,俄罗斯在其历史发展过程中就遇到某些困难,并把这些困难带到现今 世界,而在现今世界,地理边界不再涉及民族国家,而是涉及文化和文明的地区和区域。的确,俄罗斯有许多与欧洲--大西洋或西方相联系的东西,但如同拉丁美洲、非洲、远东、其他地区或大陆,俄罗斯也有许多与西方不同的东西。世界的各地区存在著差别,这一 事实并不意味著有些地区比另一些地区更有价值。它们是互相平等的。它们仅仅在某些方 面有所不同。但不相同□不意味著可耻。俄罗斯在一方面认为自己是一个实体,是一个应 该受到特殊对待的全球强国;另一方面,它又因为自己被看成是一个独立实体,一个很难 成为另一实体之组成部分的实体,而感到不舒服。

俄罗斯正在逐渐习惯北约的扩展,有一天它会完全习惯这种扩展。我们希望,这将不 仅是恩格斯所谓的被认识到的必然性的一种表现,而且是新的更深刻的自我理解的一种表 现。在这个多元文化、多极化的新环境里,正如其他国家必须学会重新界定自己,俄罗斯 也必须这样作。这不仅意味著,它不能永远以自大狂或自恋来代替自然的自信心,而且意 味著它必须认识到何处是自己的疆界。例如,拥有丰富自然资源的广袤无边的西伯利亚,属於俄罗斯;而小小的爱沙尼亚就不属於并永远不属於俄罗斯。而且,如果爱沙尼亚属於 北约或欧盟所代表的世界,俄罗斯必须理解和尊重这一点,而不应把这看成是一种敌意的 表现。

只要人类能经受人类为自己准备备的所有危险的考验,二十一世纪的世界将是一个以平等为基础的,人类在范围更大的、有时甚至覆盖整个大陆的跨国组织内更密切合作的世 界。为了使这个世界变成现实,人类文明的各种实体、文化或领域必须清晰地认识到自己 的身份,了解自己与别人的差异所在,认识到这种差异性不是一种障碍,而是对人类全球 财富的一种贡献。当然,那些对自己的差异性抱优越感的人也必须认识到这一点。

联合国是所有国家和跨国实体能坐在一起平等讨论、并做出决定影响整个世界的最重 要组织之一。联合国如果要成功地完成廿一世纪赋予它的任务,必须做重大改革。

联合国的最重要机构安理会,不能继续维持它刚开始成立时的状况。相反,它必须公 正合理地反映今日的多极化世界。我们必须思考,某一个国家是否一定有权否决其他各国 的共同决定。我们必须考虑,许多重要而强大的国家在安理会内没有代表权这个问题。我 们必须探索轮流性的安理会非常任理事国等制度问题。我们还必须减少整个联合国庞大机 构的官僚主义,提高其工作效率。我们必须讨论如何才能使联合国机构,特别是其全体大 会的决策过程具有真正的弹性。

最重要的是,我们必须使地球上所有居民确实将联合国看成是自己的组织,而不只是 一个由各国政府组成的俱乐部。最关键一点是,联合国应该是为地球上全体人类而不是为 了个别国家谋利益。因而,联合国的财务程序,会员国申请程序和审批程序,也许应该加 以改革。这并不是要剥夺国家的权力并以某种庞大的全球之国取而代之,而是不能让一切 事务都一定要而且只能通过国家及其政府来处理。正是为了人类的利益,为了人权、自由 以及一般意义上的生命的利益,应该存在多种渠道,使世界领袖的决策到达公民,并使公 民达到世界领袖。多种渠道意味著更多的平衡和更广阔的相互监督。

显然,我不是在反对国家机构。一国的首脑在另一国的国会演讲时宣传国家应该废除,这是相当荒谬的。但我讲的是其他问题。我讲的是,事实上存在著一种高於国家的价值。这种价值就是人。众所周知,国家要为人民服务的而不是与此相反。公民服务於自己国 家的唯一理由,是因为对於国家为所有公民提供良好服务而言,公民的服务非常必要。人 权高於国家权利。人类自由是一种高於国家主权的价值。就国际法体系而言,保护单个人 的国际法律优先於保护国家的国际法律。

在当今世界,如果我们各自的命运已融合成单一的一种命运,如果任何人都应对全人 类的未来负责,那麽,任何人,任何国家,都不应拥有限制人民履行自己职责的权利。各 国的外交政策应该逐渐脱离那种常见的构成其核心的东西,即自己国家的利益,自己国家 外交政策的利益,因为这类利益倾向於分裂而不是团结人类。确实,人人都有某种利益,这是完全自然的,没有理由认为我们应该抛弃自己的合法权利。但有一种东西高於我们的 利益,这就是我们信奉的原则。这些原则能团结我们而不是分裂我们。而且,这些原则是 衡量我们的利益是否具有合法性的标尺。许多国家的教义是,为了国家的利益而坚持某原 则,这种说法站不住脚。原则必须为了其自身而被尊重或坚持。就原则而言,利益应该来 源於原则。例如,如果我说,为了捷克的利益才需要有公平合理的世界和平,这是不对的。我应该说,必须有公平合理的世界和平,而捷克的利益必须服从於它。

北约正在进行一场反对米洛谢维奇的种族灭绝统治的战争。这既非一场可以轻易获胜 的战争,也非一场人人拥护的战争。对於北约的战略战术,人们可能存在著不同观点。但 任何具有正常判断力的人都不能否认一点:这可能是人类并非为了利益、而是为了坚持某 种原则和价值所进行的第一场战争。如果可以这样评价战争的话,那麽这确实是一场合乎 道德的战争,一场为了道德原因而打的战争。科索伏没有可以使某些人感兴趣的油田,任 何北约成员国对科索伏没有任何领土要求,米洛谢维奇也没有威胁任何北约成员国或其他 国家的领土主权。尽管如此,北约却在打仗,正在打一场代表人类利益、为了拯救他人命 运的战争,因为正派的人不能对国家领导下的系统性地屠杀他人坐视不管。正直的人绝不 能容忍这种事,而且,绝不能在能够救援的情况下而不施援手。

这场战争将人权置於优先於国家权利的地位。北约对南斯拉夫的攻击没有获得联合国 的直接授权。但北约的行动并非出於肆无忌惮、侵略性或不尊重国际法。恰恰相反,北约 的行动是出於对国际法的尊重,出於对其地位高於保护国家主权的国际法的尊重,出於对 人权的尊重,因为人权是我们的良心及其他国际法律所明确阐明的。

我认为,这场战争为未来立下了一个重要的先例,它已明确宣告,不允许屠杀人民,不允许将人民驱离家园,不允许虐待人民,不允许剥夺人民的财产。它还表明,人权不可 分割,对一些人不公正也就是对所有人的不公正。……

过去我曾经多次思索,为何人拥有的某种权利高於其他任何权利。我得到的结论是,人权、人的自由和人的尊严深深地置根於地球世界之外。它之所以得到这种地位是因为在 某些环境下,人类自觉地而不是被迫地把它看成是一种重於自己生命的价值。因而,这些 观念只有以无限空间和永恒时间为背景才有意义。我坚信,我们的所有行动,无论它们是 否与我们的良心相和谐,其真实价值最终将在某个超出我们视线的地方接受检验。如果我 们感觉不到这一点,或者下意识地怀疑这一点,我们将一事无成。

对於国家及其在未来可能扮演的角色,我的结论是:国家是人的产物,而人是上帝的 产物。

第五篇:巾帼立业,情系医护战线(医护演讲)

演讲的题目是《巾帼立业,情系医护战线》。

作为医护战线上的一员,虽然我们的工作即平凡又普通,可是它却和千百万人的幸福紧密相连,虽然我们的工作即辛苦又劳累,可是它却和千百万人的命运息息相关。当你降生到这个世界上时,第一个迎接你的是我们的助产士,当你病魔缠身时,为你解除痛苦的是我们的医生与护士,当你康复出院为你卸下人生沉重负荷告别痛苦的还是我们的医护人员。所以人们把我们医务工作者比作生命的使者、健康的卫士、爱神的化身。

有一首歌,我们用生命去唱,有一首诗,我们用生命去呤。

有人讥笑我,当护士没出息,有人潮讽我,作医生太寒酸。而却有许多人在赞美我,比
