W.L. Swarts For Congress
Novelist and political columnist W.L. Swarts is running against John
McHugh in New York's 23rd District for the United States House of
Representatives.
Read the speech W.L. delivered by clicking here!

Editor's Note: After email exchanges and a
nice phone conversation my wife and I had with W.L. Swarts on 8/9/2005, I
must say... We sure hope Mr. McHugh will be forced into retiring as our
congressmen in November 2006. After several exchanges with John McHugh,
he has make it perfectly clear that he doesn't listen to or care what his
constituency thinks. W.L. Swarts on the other hand, wants the input of the
people like it is suppose to be in America.
Good Luck WL Swarts, we need a Congressmen like you !
Sincerely, Rev. Neil Colton
( In case any of you are wondering like we were at first, WL aren't Mr.
Swarts' initials, WL is his legal first name, like 'BJ Hunnicut' on the

Chertoff
Delayed Federal Response, Memo Shows
-9/14/2005
The federal official with the power to mobilize a massive
federal response to Hurricane Katrina was Homeland
Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, not the former
FEMA chief who was relieved of his duties and resigned earlier this week.

Explosive
Residue Found on Failed Levee Debris -
9/11/2005
Ruptured New Orleans Levee had Help
Failing
...The FEMA coordinator then threw the evidence
back into the water and said "You will tell no one about this."
At that point, the diver went back down to do more inspection of the
levee. On the second dive, he secreted a small chunk of the debris
inside his wet suit and later arranged for it to be sent to trusted
military friends at a The U.S. Army Forensic Laboratory at Fort Gillem,
Georgia for testing.
According to well placed sources, a military
forensic specialist determined the burn marks on the cement chunks did, in
fact, come from high explosives. The source, speaking on
condition of anonymity said "We found traces of boron-enhanced
fluoronitramino explosives as well as PBXN-111 embedded in the debris.
This would indicate at least two separate types of explosive devices."..

FEMA Deliberately Sabotaging Hurricane
Relief Efforts
Multiple parishes revolt, use armed guards to defend against feds
Numerous credible sources have come forward with examples of how the
Federal Emergency Management Agency is deliberately sabotaging Hurricane
Katrina relief efforts in New Orleans. This represents a ruthless attempt
on the part of FEMA to impose a federal takeover of the area for their
own benefit amid a tragedy that has already claimed anything up to 10,000
lives.

FEMA -

Not only is it the most powerful entity
in the United States, but it was
not even created under Constitutional law by the Congress. It
was a

military nor the Central Intelligence Agency, they are subject to
Congress. The organization is called FEMA,
which stands for the Federal

in the Richard Nixon

Molly Ivins: Some of you may have heard me observe a time or two that the
trouble with George W. is that while he is good at politics, he stinks at
governance. It bores him, he thinks government is bad to begin with and
everything would be done better if it were contracted out to corporations.
We can now safely assert that W. has stacked much of the federal

We are here because the Bush administration

We are here because this Congress continues to turn a blind eye
to the wrongdoing of this administration. In July 2003, over two years
ago, a Bush administration official committed one of the most serious
breaches of national security in recent history by disclosing to the press
the identity of an undercover Central Intelligence Agency operative. Even
worse, it likely was done for political reasons, to retaliate against the
operative's husband for successfully challenging the President's claim
that Iraq had sought nuclear material in Africa...

...At some point, Steve got his hands on a flat-bottom boat and rowed
around the city. He found dozens and dozens and dozens
of people, and rowed them to shelters. He saved perhaps a couple
hundred lives...
One day, he met an Iraq veteran in a shelter who was just back, who was
permanently in a wheelchair from shrapnel wounds, who was desperate to do what
Steve was doing, who had lost his whole family to the storm.
One day, he pounded through a rooftop to pull people out of their attic.
One day, he heard a baby crying in a house, and went in
to find the baby on the floor in between two dead bodies, and took the baby to a

You may have voted blue, but every day you unknowingly help dump millions
of dollars into the conservative war chest. By purchasing products and services
from companies that donate heavily to conservatives, we have been compromising
our own interests as liberals and progressives.
BuyBlue.org is a concerted
effort to lift the veil of corporate patronage, so consumers can make informed
buying decisions that coincide with their principles.
Currently, we are developing an extensive and interactive website where users
will be able to monitor corporate activity in real time. We cannot do this
alone; we need an army of Blue buyers to be the eyes and ears of this movement.
All we have to do is put our money where our mouth is to make it profitable to
be ethical.
Our collective buying power WILL make a difference, and we WILL be heard.

Some Thoughts
And the Nintendo generation is all part of their plan
!
Welcome to modern day slavery... Where the
draft is coming back, the new war machines run with controls much like
Nintendo, Where it takes 2-3 incomes to keep an average house running...
What is modern day slavery you might ask ?
It's when and where one income from one 40 hour work week will not cover your
cost of living. Food, rent, medical, dental, the cloths you wear, insurance, a
car, taxes, etc.. ALL OF IT. Where we buy cheap from companies that don't pay
their help enough to get off of food stamps unless they have more than one
income. Where both parents are working while the TV and video games do the
babysitting and big brother is deciding what they should see or play. Where
family closeness all but disappears because everyone in the family is too
involved with self preservation to see the big picture. Followed by war, lots
of wars, a thinning of the herd as some would say,
separating the rich from the poor, and eventually....
More on Modern Day Slavery coming soon... We're living it, so we might as well
talk about it.

"It appears that the money has been moved in the president's budget to
handle homeland security and the war in Iraq, and I suppose that's the
price we pay. Nobody locally is happy that the levees can't be finished,
and we are doing everything we can to make the case that this is a
security issue for us."

New York State Facts - kids room![]()
What is a Billion?
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one
advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into
perspective in one of its releases:
A billion seconds ago - it was 1959.
A billion minutes ago - Jesus was alive
A billion hours ago- our ancestors were living in
the Stone Age.
A billion dollars ago -
was only 8 hours and 20
minutes, at the
rate that the Federal Government in Washington D.C. spends it.
Here is what he had to say...
1 Billion Seconds ago it was 1973 not 1959
1 Billion Minutes ago Jesus had died and been risen for over 60 years
Depending on the Budget the 8hrs 20min might actually be a lot faster.
(The 8.333hrs is dependent on a yearly budget of 1.051 Trillion dollars)
His source: www.snopes.com
Since the annual budget that President Bush proposed for the up coming year is
over 2.4 Trillion dollars... That would mean that our government is now spending
your tax dollars at the rate of over 2 billion dollars every 8 hours !
*****************
Despite what President Bush says, the war on Iraq is not over. The cost of this
war to the American tax payer is going up every second. Since we can't put a
price on human lives, we will just give you the figures in tax dollars that the
American tax payers have paid as of right now. These figures were provided by
the Costofwar.com
website.
