"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands
which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and
equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions
of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these
Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness--That to secure these Rights,
Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed,
that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive to these Ends, it is the Right of the People
to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such Principles and organizing
its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness" . . .

Editor's Note: The link above has been on this home page for most of the year because, G. W. Bush, Dick Cheney and most of their cabinet are being sued for 7 billion dollars by the families of 9/11, for helping to plan and assure that the 9/11 attacks were carried out as planned. This case first went before a U.S. judge on 1/3/2005, and it's currently being appealed in the 9th circuit court in Ca... Regardless of what political party you favor, I feel when the president of the U.S.A. is being sued for 7 billion dollars, it's the medias obligation to bring these facts to the American people.

We didn't torture the Nazis
Cenk Uygur
Conservatives these days talk about the war on terror being a new kind of war that demands new tactics. They say it's nothing like any war we have ever fought and the terrorists are more vicious than any previous
enemy. Really? How about the Nazis? They seemed pretty vicious --
 and we never felt the need to torture them.
We won a couple of world wars without ever having to torture anyone. In fact, we treated the German soldiers so well when the war was over some of them wanted to stay (true story).
Yet, I recollect us winning that war. How about Tim McVeigh? Wasn't he the "worst of the worst" as the Republicans keep calling our current detainees? Why didn't we torture him?...

US Forces 'Used Chemical Weapons' on City of Fallujah
Powerful new evidence emerged yesterday that the United States dropped massive quantities of white phosphorus on the Iraqi city of Fallujah during the attack in November of 2004. The attack killed insurgents and civilians with appalling burns that are the signature of this weapon. A video documentary entitled "Fallujah: the Hidden Massacre," provides what it claims is clinching evidence that incendiary bombs known as Mark 77 - a new, improved form of napalm - were used in the attack on Fallujah. This action is in breach of the UN Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons of 1980, which only allows such use against military targets.

**********

A news program on Italian satellite TV, RAI News 24, has substantiated the claim that the US military has been exploiting the dual use of white phosporus. In its siege of Fallujah, the chemical was used on the civilian populace. The story is in today's Repubblica. The Bush Adminstration and the DoD are about to be shamed before the eyes of the world.
Shocking revelation RAI News 24. Use of chemical weapons by the US military in Iraq.
Veteran admits: Bodies melted away before us.

This is how the US "took" Fallujah.

Editor's Note: Well they got the first half of the story above right, but the second half is a blatant lie!
The Bush Administration has proven to be by far the most dangerous terrorist organization in the world today. And what I find most disturbing about that FACT is, unlike what we were taught in American schools, our CIA, FBI, and/or Federal Marshals haven't stopped them yet, which with the evidence we have already, it's their sworn duty to do. We as Americans have allowed our leaders to use chemical weapons, nuclear weapons, torture and everything else we are said to be fighting to stop other countries from doing.
(sadly there is no way as a nation that we could be less Christian than that) So in the end... The most powerful country in the world has sunk lower in it's treatment of mankind then ANY other country in the world, including those we are at war with, because they MIGHT have the ability to do someday, what  we as a nation are doing right now !
Proud to be an American ? No, not at all right now and I won't be until Bush, Cheney and friends are all in jail for their crimes.  And the Buck doesn't stop there either !  Because every Congressman and Senator who has voted for these actions and these illegal wars, is also guilty of undermining our constitution, which I might add, is an act of treason !

WASHINGTON - (KRT) - Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson caused heartburn in Washington and consternation in Latin America on Tuesday in calling for the
 assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.

"I think we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war," Robertson said during Monday evening's broadcast of "The 700 Club," his Christian news-talk television show. "We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability."
http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/politics/12456432.htm

Editor's Note to the story above:  Being a Christian means to be "Christ Like" or "Like Jesus Christ".  Jesus came to earth and gave his life in the promotion of world peace.  So any "So called Christian" who is promoting the killing of other people as Pat Robertson has done, thus breaking God's commandments... Is not a Christian at all, but a wolf in sheep's clothing, an evil person, working for the dark side etc...  Personally, I feel sorry for any and all people who have been suckered into giving Pat Robertson any money !
After all, based on the wording of the Christian Bible...
 Pat Robertson's words are nothing short of declaring war against God Himself.
Sincerely,
Reverend Neil Colton

My Friend Is Dead !
"Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn't seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other man pulls out his phone and calls emergency services.
He gasps to the operator: "My friend is dead! What can I do?" The operator in a calm, soothing voice replies: "Take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead."
There is a silence, then a shot is heard.
Back on the phone, the hunter says, "Ok, now what?"

Dennis Kucinich | The Buck Does Not Stop with Libby
 Congressman Dennis J. Kucinich (D-OH), who led the effort in the House against going to war in Iraq, issued the following statement on the indictments handed down today by Special Council Patrick Fitzgerald:

These indictments are not about a single aide, it is about an Administration that went to any length to "sell" the war in Iraq and mislead the public....
....On October 20th, Kucinich introduced a Resolution of Inquiry to demand the White House turn over all white papers, minutes, notes, emails or other communications kept by the White House Iraq Group (WHIG) to the Congress.

A Resolution of Inquiry is a rare House procedure used to obtain documents from the Executive Branch. Under House rules, Kucinich's resolution is referred to committee, and action must be taken in committee within 14 legislative days.

GOP memo touts new terror attack
as way to reverse party's decline
DOUG THOMPSON
Publisher, Capitol Hill Blue - Nov 10, 2005
A confidential memo circulating among senior Republican leaders suggests that a new attack by terrorists on U.S. soil could reverse the sagging fortunes of President George W. Bush as well as the GOP and
 "restore his image as a leader of the American people."
The closely-guarded memo lays out a list of scenarios to bring the
Republican party back from the political brink...

Editor's Note: Every American should be scared by the story above, since it's a fact that our President, Vice President and most of their cabinet are being sued for 7 billion dollars by the families of 9/11, for their part in planning and carrying out the 9/11/2001 attacks on America.  In New York State where I live and where most of the people were killed by those attacks, 49.3 % of the states overall population and 55% of New York City residents believe that the Bush Administration played a major role in planning those attacks according to surveys done by Zogby International survey Co..

***** In Today's America There Is A More Powerful Act Than Voting Blue...
And That's Buying Blue ! *****
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.
