Bush Authorizes New Covert Action Against Iran
Our government is collaborating with the very same terrorists it claims to be fighting, and by doing so, it is placing its own citizens in danger, stripping itself of virtually all credibility, and undermining international efforts to prevent future attacks.

If we are to ever engage in a true war on terror, we must put an end to such corrupt and destructive covert relationships, which violate the law and contradict the principles upon which this country was founded.

Until then, whenever a terrorist plot is foiled or an attack occurs, whether it be here in the United States, in Great Britain, in Iran, or anywhere else, we will sadly and regrettably have to ask ourselves: Is our own government in any way responsible?

Pelosi, Reid, WTF?


Bush remembers Osama (only when convenient)
In 2002 Bush said about Osama, "I just don't spend that much time on him." Now that Bush wants cash for this unjust war and needs to flesh out a commencement speech today he uses Osama to justify what that administration is doing. Isn't Bush in fact saying that Osama planned to exploit the situation in Iraq (which WE created for all to exploit) and now we are using that exploitation by Osama as a justification for the continued invastion of Iraq????


A Fascist America in 10 easy steps
An article by Naomi Wolf from last month (which I just came across). Not news to me but maybe it'll reach someone who hasn't quite connected the dots on their own. Here's a summary of the steps but definitely read the details of each in the article.

1. Invoke a terrifying internal and external enemy
2. Create a gulag
3. Develop a thug caste
4. Set up an internal surveillance system
5. Harass citizens' groups
6. Engage in arbitrary detention and release
7. Target key individuals
8. Control the press
9. Dissent equals treason
10. Suspend the rule of law


Lastly, and sadly.
