  • Re: Obvious, indisputable ...Media Bias & Media Sexism

    Please do do the Gloria Steinem piece, I missed it. Thanks Lunesta, your posts are always appreciated as well. Well on the media the latest threat by that K. Obermann asshole is pretty awful. Would love to see how the NAACP would have responded if he had said black instead of woman, I hope the ACLU is on it.

  • Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

    The Democrats and Democratic Party failed to stand up for what is right for the entire eight years of the Bush / Cheney White House misrule. They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...

  • Why I'm an American in Exile...

    On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004. Why did the CIA feel threatened by this? Because I revealed how they smuggled cocaine into the US using a front company called ''Skyway Communications''. ...

  • USA would be lost without the ACLU.

    One question does come to mind: ''What would Solomon do,'' as well of course, as the now-proverbial, ''What would Jesus do?''The need for the ACLU and groups like it, has never been so painfully apparent as during the last six and a half years of dictatorship in the country.

  • Note to Dahlia Lithwick et al., re: "redacted."

    Dahlia (and others similarly situated -- at editors' desks and reporters' laptops)... I make humble request that you eschew use of the word ''redacted.'' It is, I agree, a nifty and lofty sounding word. But in a strict definition, it merely means ''to prepare for publication,'' or to ''edit for publication.'' Just what editors and writers ...

  • Is "Neo-Con" limited ONLY to "Republicans"?

    In as much as this author firmly believes that to elect a DEMOCRAT is STILL a superior choice to the ''Alternative'', the dem's leadership would seem to be letting the golden opportunities that the American Voter has afforded them to INFLUENCE ''Corrective Changes'' and began the long and difficult effort to RESTORE American Rights and Civil ...

  • Gonzales Must Go!

    What **we** do about it, is call and email our two Senators, one a diehard, party line Repubbie so it's a wasted call but it makes us feel better. The other, a new to the Senate, decent guy, Democrat, an attorney who made the mistake of voting for AG AG and now wishes he hadn't. And we nag all our friends to do the same and to speak out & talk ...
