Bush doesn't fight terrorism at home. The current ban on military-style, semi-automatic assault weapons is set to expire on September 13, 2004 unless Congress and the President act.
United States Senator Byrd has been asked by an influencial WWII veteran's group to investigate the constitutionality of the tightly held media within the U.S.
It discusses the various dealings between the Bush and bin Laden families and the Bush family's aid to the Taliban. And urges Americans to consider voting for Jack Grimes in the Presidential Election of 2004.
I was at a nabor's this morning for breakfast. NBC news was on (via KGW). A would-be "news" story was about a "new" ready-bag of stuff (yeh, duct tape & stuff) which people should buy to Be Ready for an attack (shudder). Such kits have been available for eons, but NBC thinks this is "news". Here's the kicker. The "reporter" said that the bags are available at "select stores such as this wal-mart". Uh-huh. A stench was apparent. Then the source of the stench appeared, as the next commercial break was an ad for, tuh-duh, wal-mart! I rarely watch tv, so maybe this co-mingling of commerce & "news" happens all the time. However, i was shocked, to be honest, that something so blatant & clumsy was perpetrated, & that the bogus nature of corporate "news" would be so obvious.

Where Have All the Soldiers Gone?
Just like John Kerry's adolescent attack on George Bush's middle initial W. earlier this week where he described the W. standing for Wrong about the war in Iraq, Wrong about the economy etc. etc. Moveon.org has resurrected their failed adolescent attack on George Bush's Air Guard record by supporting a group called Texans for Truth. In an election that is turning out to be more about the person running rather than the important policies that this election hinges on - the corporate media is playing the willing messenger, handing the feces to the candidates and their designated 527s.

Log Cabin Republicans are withholding their endorsement from President Bush for 2004. "Log Cabin's National Board has voted to withhold a Presidential endorsement and shift our financial and political resources to defeating the radical right and supporting inclusive Republican candidates for the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives," said Log Cabin Board Chairman William Brownson of Ohio. The Log Cabin Board of Directors voted 22 to 2 not to endorse the President's re-election.
Reflections on what occurred during the Critical Mass ride before RNC and what happened thereafter in the the police state of NYC.
Well, uh, it looks like I did it again. Been thinking about writing one of these for a few weeks now. OK, first off, I'm not really that far behind. I wrote a dispatch about a month ago but it seems to have disappeared. I may have to rewrite it but until then...
Basic facts.

So, my question is this: If the convention is a security nightmare, if it's bad for business, if hardly anyone listens to most of the speakers in the convention hall, and if party leaders have already chosen the candidate long before the delegates meet to vote, then why in the world do we still have political conventions?
One grand jury that won't be citing anyone for contempt
The basic theory is incontrovertible. The only questions have to do with timing and cost. ...
Don't miss 60 Minutes this evening - 8 pm - Channel 6 in Portland. Break out the popcorn . . . it's reportedly going to be a hot night for Mr. Bush.

This is a rewritten transcript of a conversation that took place five or six years ago. The conversation was had online and all the quotes are direct. This was rewritten for enjoyment and I may pull some more tricks out of those old bags and see if they have any relevance.
The Pentagon Conspiracy has finally been summarized into a handy-dandy flash animation.
Stunning information exposing the sacrifice of children's lives in the pursuit of corporate profits!
What? Both candidates taking from the same corporate interests? Any chance of Kerry returning all that money that came from republicans?

I need ideas about investigative journalists who might speak at our community forum.
Blatant scare tactics from this power mad administration.
A discussion of Henry Kissinger's support of repression and terror throughout his career in US government.
Abraham Lincoln said, "Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves." I suggest that anyone who would deny those different from themselves the freedom to marry, should look in the mirror and try a little introspection.
Clear Channel, which owns more than 1,200 stations, is now beaming Air America's liberal lineup over eight of them--nine if you count a Florida outlet that's only running the Randi Rhodes show, and 10 if you count XM satellite radio, which includes Clear Channel among its investors. That might not sound like much, but it's over a third of Air America's affiliates.
I am very excited to announce that a movie Poetry In Wartime is set to be released on September 11, 2004. To see it on this date all you need to do is contact this website and arrange to have it played in Portland. As most of you know I migrate so I will not be there. Cheers!
September 9th. We need something like World War I. Those types of revelations always happened at curbs. The light changed 10 seconds later. She crossed 39th and Hassalo, a normal juncture on her way home from the Hollywood MAX. An autopilot route charted incrementally by desires to A. walk by pretty things B. be left alone C. not get lost.
The Biscuit wildfire area has again been spared by the courts. In a ruling late Tuesday, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco granted an injunction stopping ancient forest reserve logging in the Biscuit.

Student at Boise State needs a Taco bell without the "Taco Bell" words--
. . . should ["Fahrenheit 9/11"] air on TV, I will NOT be eligible to submit "Fahrenheit 9/11" for Academy Award consideration for Best Documentary. Academy rules forbid the airing of a documentary on television within nine months of its theatrical release (fiction films do not have the same restriction).
Although I have no assurance from our home video distributor that they would allow a one-time television broadcast -- and the chances are they probably won't -- I have decided it is more important to take that risk and hope against hope that I can persuade someone to put it on TV, even if it's the night before the election. Therefore, I have decided not to submit "Fahrenheit 9/11" for consideration for the Best Documentary Oscar. If there is even the remotest of chances that I can get this film seen by a few million more Americans before election day, then that is more important to me than winning another documentary Oscar.
As American military deaths in Iraq operations surpassed the 1,000 mark, top Pentagon officials said Tuesday that insurgents controlled important parts of central Iraq and that it was unclear when American and Iraqi forces would be able to secure those areas.
Lunch a little hard to swallow for Condi
Today, we honor the men and women of America who work for a living -- and who, by all measures, are the best in the world at what they do.
Would you believe it, should someone tell you that at this very moment you are experiencing a number of pasts simultaneously? No doubt your immediate response would be, "That's just absurd!" But doesn't it ever occur to you that the stars you see in the sky are actually in their past condition, not in their present condition? Does this not mean at present we too are experiencing "a number of pasts" of the stars?
