VICE President's Admission


Dick Cheney said today, "We operated on the best available intelligence, gathered over a period of years from within a totalitarian society ruled by fear and secret police." Oooops! Freudian Slip...

First Mainstream Media Fatality Picture?


Last week the New York Times published a picture of a U.S. Marine kikked in an ambush during the large scale offensive near the Syrian border in Iraq. 32 months and 2,000+ dead Americans later, this may be the first image of a U.S. military fatality to be published by the Mainstream Media.

What does that mean? Who knows. But maybe even the MSM is tiring of Administration restrictions of what can be reported from Iraq.

I definitely do not want to see any more Americans or Iraqis killed. But as long as this war is going on, we need to see what is being done. We need to confront the violence and death America has exported to Iraq. We need to decide if we support such violence.

Thanks to Bag News Notes for posting the picture.

Modern Fascism


The man who claimed to be his nation's leader had not been elected by a majority vote.
He was a simpleton, who saw things in black-and-white terms.
He did not have the intellect to understand the subtleties of running a nation.
His course use of language and his inflammatory nationalistic rhetoric offended aristocrats, foreign leaders, and the well educated.
When extremists stuck a prestigious building he rushed to the scene and called a press conference.
He declared war not on another nation but on a tactic: terrorism.
He built detention centers for "terrorists."
He suspended constitutional guarantees of free speech, privacy, and habeous corpus.
His "Homeland Security" forces intercepted mail, wiretapped phones, imprisoned suspected terrorists without specific charges and without access to their lawyers.
Citizens who protested where fenced off in protest zones or beaten or gassed.
He argued that any international body that didn't act in the best interests of his own nation was neither relevant nor useful.
He touted his Christian faith and called for a revival of faith in his nation.
He brought the executives of the nation's largest corporations into the government.
And he invaded and annexed other countries to increase his own wealth.

Fascism must be resisted.
The German people thought they were free, even as they gave away their democracy.

Day of Resistance Gets Going

Nov 2nd 2005 National Day of Resistance: No Work, No School, No Bush.

Reports are starting to come in from Resistance Demonstations across the Country:
San Francisco, Princeton, NYC, Washington DC, Seattle, Atlanta, Ohio University, Los Angeles, and more...

Democracy Now! talks about the protests: Amy Goodman said: "...protests are being organized in over 200 cities...WCW, drive out the Bush regime...in N.Y. protests began Tuesday when radio station Hot 97 refused to run a paid ad by Boots Riley from the Coup." Then she played the ad and said: "organizers are urging students to walk out of their high schools....in Seattle, student walkouts are scheduled in over two dozen schools."

More as the Day of Resistance Continues.

Declaration of Resistance


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 of 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. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
We the People declare a National Day of Resistance, November 2, 2005.
Our government has been purchased by Corporations and no longer represents real people.
Our leaders lied and led us into an illegal war where thousands have died.
Even when their lies are exposed they express no remorse and offer no plans to remove us from this war.
We the People cannot wait for 2008 to elect a new government.
The world cannot wait.

Resist tyranny and despotism.
Nov 2nd. No work. No school. No purchases. No fascism.
Bring back government of the People, by the People, for the People.
