Portland hippielawyer's analysis of the Patriot Act inspired Massachusetts citizens to pass a resolution that "federal and state law enforcement report to the local Human Rights Commission all local investigations undertaken under aegis of the [USA Patriot] Act and Orders; and that the community's congressional representatives actively monitor the implementation of the Act and Orders, and work to repeal those sections found unconstitutional."

"Many in the country ask whether the people in the White House embody that "new ethic of responsibility" that should mark America's business world. Bush and his own seem to call to businessmen: Do as we say, not as we do...Nothing recalls the great gestures of Theodore Roosevelt who set out to break the power of the cartels or the verve of Franklin D. Roosevelt who invented the Securities and Exchange commission." Translated from the German in DIE ZEIT.
The US House of Representatives voted on the final bill to give George W. Bush 'Fast Track' trade negotiating authority last night at 3 AM EDT. It passed by a vote of 220 to 200.

The insurance industry will spend whatever they think they need to spend to carpet bomb the airwaves with negative ads. They can be expected to spend near $10 Million dollars to defeat this revolutionary single payor healthcare system to be voted on in November.
Colin Powell's son, Michael Powell, was appointed as chair of the FCC back when Bush was selected. We've seen KBOO get hit with a suit for indecency for the airing of a song with political content; and Powell has said crazy things like "I do not know what the public interest is". This is a man who ostensibly would be protecting the airwaves in the public interest. The FCC wants to know what citizens think of their policy agenda.

Global free trade is not attacked for narrow-minded protectionist reasons but because it is incompatible in principle with democracy and undermines hard fought labor rights and social standards. "People want to regain control over their immediate living conditions." Maria Mies sees the disinterest of people in global free trade negotiations as the effect of the "TINA-axiom", "there is no alternative". This article is translated from the German.
The war on terrorism purporting to safeguard freedom and security threatens the freedom and security of citizens, journalists and politicians in the US and Germany. The media stylized as zealous for truth often narrows debate and suppresses pacifist and anti-war viewpoints. These are two lies exposed in this article published on germany.indymedia. While this free translation from germany.indymedia needs correction, the arguments could help focus discussion.
I explain why, arguably, 911 mastermind George Bush & his co-terrorists U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft, FBI director Robert Mueller and his predecessors Thomas Pickard and Louis Freeh ought to be shackled and goggled and flown to Guantanamo.
That Washington's media elite appears to be anesthetized to Bush's current drive to turning the United States into some mirror image of East Germany, China, or Pinochet's Chile cannot be overstated.

This Bark newsletter was especially interesting, and this weekend's hikes and the campout in August should be lots of fun-- the piece about fire being a reason to log is important to read as well. And since this is happening at the same time as Bike Summer, maybe it could include riding around Mt. Hood forest finding places where the roads need to be rrripped...
