The attempt to take Oregon's PGE by Texas Pacific Group reflects a long going process of the Texas-fication of the Amerika as well as specifically the rape of Cascadia for her resources. If one does research in the "New Freedom Initiative" with the goal of testing for mental disablities by Texan pharmiceudical and Texan exam companies. The Enron-ization of the power companies as well as the fact that fuel is controled by Texan big busness has been examples of the Dubya Gang's strangling of all life on this contintent. Everytime I hear some totally stupid con job on our education (from testing to textbooks), pharmiceudicals, modified foods, prisons for profit and anything to do with resource theif it seems to ways come out of Tex-ass! I am not saying all Texans are Satanic gesture waving inbred idiots... just alot of the wealthy "macho" elite. Its time we get serious and start talking of Cascadia.
Attached are sveral stickers that anyone can print out and blaster them across Cascadia!
About 80 farmworkers and 100's of their supporters have converged upon Louisville, KY, home of Yum! brands, the parent company of Taco Bell. Originally, this was to be a yet another mobilization to pressure to Taco Bell into recognizing its role in the supply chain of tomatos.

Even Newt Gingrinch says they have gone too far.
"The House has become a place where trivial issues are debated passionately and important issues not at all."
i've been following the stories here on indymedia of the direct actions that have been taking place this week to stop the logging in the Fiddler Sale in the Biscuit area. It's been quite exciting to see that so many people have been willing to put their bodies on the line, and that so many have been supporting them. My admiration and gratitude totally go out to them.
i'm also impressed at how organized the outreach effort is. Today, outside my co-op, some folks had set up an info table to draw attention to their fight. They had photos printed up from the portland indymedia website, Call to Action flyers to distribute, and were making themselves available to spread the word and to collect donations. Many people stopped to talk to them and it was clear they were getting support! Such grassroots organizing inspires me.
Can we have a planning day for March 19th? Any colleges willing to reserve some space?
Lloyd Axworthy, president of the University of Winnipeg and a former Canadian foreign minister, has written an open letter to Condi Rice that has most of the world (outside of Fox news) laughing at the Bush administration. Axworthy is a master of the kind of biting satire that makes mere cuss words and obscenity look tame by comparison. The letter, which successfully deconstructs the Bush administration as a legitimate government, was published in the Winnipeg Free Press and has been circulating in the U.S primarily through the blogosphere.
I am what I write, My soul is alright,

Homeland Security Schutzstaffien And "Terrorists"
This morning I was sitting on my porch and as the bus drove by I saw this very noble and beautiful black woman staring out the window and looking in my general direction. She was looking sad and I could only wonder what menial job she was headed to. I could only wonder if she was thinking to herself "i've been working all my life but ain't got nothing show, i ain't telling you nothing you dont already know."
This is all taking place in North Portland, and the community is getting harder. The other day the shots rang out. They rang out on 17th and Killingworth, the rang out on Shaver and Mississippi. The nice weather brings out the street element. As protesters we say to ourselves, "whose streets, our streets" and we say it to the cops with little or no meaning whatsoever, because we dont have it in our colelctive consciousness that we CAN make that the reality.
Another development model should be realized based on an energy-saving way of life and emocratic controls on natural mineral resources, particularly drinking water. Military bases of foreign countries should be closed. Another world is possible, promoting democracy.
Amidst the growing momentum of the 2005 Taco Bell Truth Tour and after nearly four years of a national boycott, the CIW and Taco Bell have reached a historic agreement!

"It is a brave and courageous move to mark the first anniversary of the Madrid bombings in which 192 people were killed and thousands more injured, with a discussion on how we should respond to terror. Brave, because many societies experiencing terror respond by living in fear. And once fear takes hold in a society, it can lead to a cycle and culture which creates a destructive dynamic in which everyone looses," said Irene Khan.
"Two brothers own 80 percent of the machines used in the United States," Heinz Kerry said. She identified both as "hard-right" Republicans. She argued that it is "very easy to hack into the mother machines."
We found him in a modest home in a small village and not in a hole as announced," Abou Rabeh said. "We captured him after fierce resistance during which a Marine of Sudanese origin was killed," he said...
He said Saddam himself fired at them with a gun from the window of a room on the second floor. Then they shouted at him in Arabic: "You have to surrender. ... There is no point in resisting."... "Later on, a military production team fabricated the film of Saddam's capture in a hole, which was in fact a deserted well," Abou Rabeh said.
How goes the war on terror, George?
Is Al Qaeda under control? Does the world know peace, freedom and justice? I think I'd say "No" on the whole.
Does anyone have anything more on this story? It seems to be available only in blogs, where it appears to be well documented.

Everyone wants peace, that is a given. But the question is how far will we go to accomplish peace? Following an ice-cream truck around in a parade fashion is not my idea of an actual protest. Our voices need to be heard, not muffled. There have been too many times we have been ignored because of our lack of persistence. Do we not care anymore? When the war started we protested, but why have we dimmed our actions? March 19th should be the new beginning of a revolt. How many more people does our nation have to kill in order for people to understand what is going on? We are the ones that have to put an end to this senseless brutality. What ever happened to "For the people, by the people"? Time of action is at hand.
i was out doing some flyering today and saw some posters that said something like that on them. i didn't want to take one down so i could remember the details, and i didn't have anything to write with, and i was hoping to find something here on indymedia when i got home. but there ain't nuthin!

John Kerry is leading a movement in the Senate to force the Senate to hold hearings about the shameful facts concerning child health and medical insurance in the U.S.A. He has 500,000 on-line citizen "co-sponsors" for legislation to try to right the wrongs. We would like to get to 1,000,000 on-line signatures within the next 30 days.

a more detailed account of this morning's activities at the biscuit fire protests.
The OPUC is telling reporters that its decision will be issued tomorrow, March 10, at 11 a.m., with a press conference at the OPUC in Salem.
Calendar gives specifics!!
Won't somebody please think about the oppressors? They work so hard to keep us down and all we routinely do is kick them in the heels with our shoeless feet! How would you feel if the tables were turned, if you worked really hard to bring misery to millions of poor, helpless souls, only to hear a few thousand bitch and whine about the meager scraps graciously afforded them by their masters?
A press release regarding an exciting upcoming conference.
...documents found in the Vatican archives, including a long-lost parchment, proved that the Pope had in fact manoeuvred "with skill and determination" to ensure that his own emissaries questioned de Molay and other leading Templars in the dungeons of Chinon castle in the Loire in 1308, in what amounted to a papal trial.
Signora Frale, who is writing a book based on the Chinon parchment, told the Italian monthly Hera, a journal of historical mysteries, that the result was the complete exoneration of the Knights. Noting that de Molay and the Knights had asked his pardon, the Pope wrote: "We hereby decree that they are absolved by the church and may again receive Christian sacraments." Signor Forgione said that the Pope had failed to make this absolution public because the scandal of the Templars had aroused extreme passions and he feared a church schism. Philip IV had de Molay and other Templar leaders put to death before the Pope's verdict could be published, and it was subsequently lost. And to conspiracy deniers, a collective "bite me" I think is in order, from all of us to all of you.
Our government is leaving us behind...
Reports from the field indicate that four people have locked down to the Green Bridge, blocking access to the Fiddler Timber Sale.
Several Forest Service law enforcement vehicles were escorting loggers to the sale this morning when one person locked down to the lead law enforcement vehicle while it was crossing the bridge. Three additional people then locked down, to what it is unclear. The bridge has been cleared and roped off as a 'crime scene.' At least one arrest has already been made. Please stay tuned to  http://www.rogueimc.org for further updates as more information comes in from the field.
As of 6:30 this morning, a number of forest defenders had physically blockaded the green bridge keeping loggers out of the Fiddler timber sale.
The world, nature, women and the impoverished South cry for an alternative where workers are more than cost factors, where all persons share in social wealth, where unemployment is seen as the consequence not the cause of economic failure and profit is no longer worshipped.
