The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it. -- Albert Einstein

Beyond Disaster

The war in Iraq is about to get worsemuch worse.  The Democrats decision to let the war run its course, while they frantically wash their hands of responsibility, means that it will sputter and stagger forward until the mission collapses.  This will be sudden.

More ministers pull out of crumbling Iraq cabinet

Bombers rock Baghdad's last quiet enclave

The attacks are thought to be part of a fresh campaign by the Sunni-led terror group to step up sectarian violence that the U.S.-led troop surge is supposed to be suppressing.

Monday: 8 GIs, 123 Iraqis Killed; 131 Iraqis Wounded

Baghdad - 6 Million People, 117 Degrees And No Water

Major parts of the city of six million people have lacked running water for six days, while daily high temperatures have ranged from 115 to 120 degrees. The tiny amount of water dripping through the pipes is causing many of those who must drink it to suffer acute intestinal illness.

According to reports, not enough electricity is available to run Baghdad's water pumps. This in a country with vast energy resources.

Corporate media outlets-to the extent they have reported this horrific and mind-boggling story at all-have treated it as a failure on the part of Iraqis.

Paying the costs of Zionism

The war in Iraq is costing the United States more per month than the Vietnam war cost per month on average over its eight-year term.  In real dollars, adjusted for inflation.

PERSPECTIVE --  by Danny Riley

Supporter of Ed and Elaine Brown who was shot at

How much more can we take as a free people before we realize our freedom is a facade, a fake picture of reality drawn for you by the international bankers.

Lessons Not Learned

Six years ago, in the aftermath of 9/11, Congress rammed through the USA PATRIOT Act with little consideration of what that bill actually contained. Five years ago, Congress authorized a reckless and ill-advised war in Iraq. One year ago, Congress passed the deeply flawed Military Commissions Act. And late last week, a Democratic Congress passed legislation that dramatically expands the government's ability to conduct warrantless wiretapping, which could affect innocent Americans. It is clear that many congressional Democrats have not learned from those earlier mistakes, two of which happened when Democrats controlled the Senate. Once again, Congress has buckled to pressure and intimidation by the administration.

President Bush Wants Power To Immunize Telecoms That Aid In Spying On Americans

White House: President Bush Commends Congress on Passage of Intelligence Legislation

On Sunday President Bush said, "When our intelligence professionals have the legal tools to gather information about the intentions of our enemies, America is safer. And when these same legal tools also protect the civil liberties of Americans, then we can have the confidence to know that we can preserve our freedoms while making America safer."

The Fourth Amendment...

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

I hope everyone can see through this garbage. People, you CAN NOT have both liberty and security in the proportions this administration is trying to accomplish, and doing so under false pretenses. Furthermore, what the Dictator in Chief has said is yet another bold faced lie. Since the Patriot Act, not to mention all the crap introduced since, YOUR home can be searched without a warrant and without even being told! Is that liberty? Is that freedom? Do you feel safer? Bush has just announced that Al Quaeda has since rebuilt itself. What the hell have we accomplished then? What reason do we have to believe there will be a change in the course of the war? Because he lies so?

The people in this country have never been more at risk than they are RIGHT NOW. This illegal and immoral occupation of the ME for the benefit of a few powerful people has done noting but create terrorists and they have every right to be angry as hell with us.

They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security -- Benjamin Franklin

Mr. Bush's Spin Doctors

    * Four million Iraqis 15% - regularly cannot buy enough to eat.
* 70% are without adequate water supplies, compared to 50% in 2003.
* 28% of children are malnourished, compared to 19% before the 2003 invasion.
* 92% of Iraqi children suffer learning problems, mostly due to the climate of fear.
* More than two million people mostly women and children - have been displaced inside Iraq.

The Boot is Descending

This weekend something of tremendous consequence happened. The attitude of the Bush Administration and of the Democratic Leadership is likely to be just about the same: this is nothing, tend to your own work, just move along. The media will dish up some more Paris Hilton to us. Lets call it by its proper, Orwellian name: prolefeed. But indeed, what happened was very important. Another massive sledgehammer blow was taken to the foundations of our democratic institutions. And it was a thoroughly bi-partisan effort.

Sen. Russ Feingold sponsored two resolutions in his chamber calling for the legislative action against the administration officials because of they misled the country in pursuing war with Iraq and have undermined the rule of law, he said.

Ron Paul Delivers the Best Moment in the GOP Debates

After waving off Mitt Romney who tried to interrupt his roll by asking "what about 9/11?", Paul said that he was in Vietnam for five years and saw how pulling out of there did not end in disaster, neither would leaving a country that did not attack us. He concluded that we can achieve much more, quicker, through peace. To which the audience at a university in Iowa wildly applauded.

Ron Paul Champions Internet Freedom

I believe strongly that the internet should not be regulated by the federal government and believes even more strongly that people should be free to engage in the activities they wish, as long as they are willing to take responsibility for their actions.
