It looks like the organizer of the SATURDAY Dyke March is a board member of Pride Northwest, the organization that brings us the HUGE Pride Parade (sponsored by hewlett packard, budweiser, and lots of other fun people!) Here she (Stef-Anie, otherwise known as "The New Lesbian Avengers") is quoted on the Just Out website and makes some errors (ie. the Sunday Dyke March is not organized by Queer Revolution, it is organized by former Lesbian Avengers)... also she refers to organizers as "anti-gay pride" (BAH! unless gay pride = mega corporate $$$ event!) and as creating "infighting" (I guess that queers who don't like rampant consumerism should just shut up and stay home. We're just as bad as the right-wing? give us a break!) Well, enjoy reading this! And come to the SUNDAY Dyke March. And by the way, Stef-Anie, the dyke march never had a corporate sponsor for a reason. It wasn't just some coincidence.
They describe them as 'left-leaning blogs.' Too bad, these are people who are simply interested in the truth. If Clinton were doing it they'd be all over him too. Anyone in office who lies will be exposed on the internet by people who are truthseekers, regardless of political position. The Libertarian sites are all over this too (Evolving Libertarian definition - a conservative who is disgusted with lies).

Malnutrition mimics the symptoms of "AIDS", yet improving diet is not as profitable as selling pharmaceutical products like AZT believed to "cure" AIDS..
I am NOT spreading fear (as I was accused in a different posting) ... I am spreading reality of what we're up against.
Walking on Hawthorne Thursday I was offered cake by a group with a huge pig on a stick. They were handing out fliers asking people to call Sen. Wyden about the upcoming(?) vote in the Senate on CAFTA. They explined the situation with CAFTA, how it is similar to NAFTA and serves the interests of the same crowd, and they talked about how the vote hasn't come up because Bush doesn't have the support yet to guarantee its passing.

The sorry display of editors making lame excuses for not informing the American public for over a month of the damning written evidence of Bush lying to get the U.S. into a needless war in Iraq—the Downing Street memos—makes it clear that no one who wants to know what's going on should waste time reading or watching the corporate media. --------------------------------------
The sentiment behind the prohibition of panhandling is disguised behind the word "aggressive". But really, this is about the creation of a class of untouchables and the creeps that don't want to touch them.

"The wqorld has enough for everyone's need, not for everyone's greed." Can the growing tension between ecology and justice be solved in a world of inequality?.. The fear of the further spread of the western lifestyle is at the center of political debates.
For starters, lets start with jeff gannon and move forward to mary carey and them there christain repubs.
I retired early at 62. Most people do. We get tired, especially working-class people. As my mother said before she died, "The body wears out you know." If you let them push the retirement age up you will be sorry. -- George Bender
starbucks schedules the closure of one of the competitor chains it picked up a few years back.
Is it possible to speak to the haphazard culture we have progressed to without being labeled a fascist or anti-American? Was the American Dream really about Wal-Mart patio furniture, MacDonalds birthday parties, Britney Spears trailer parks and day-labor? Can I say that the right to life is great, but that the quality of life for the average American is borderline pathetic? Sure there are plenty of ways to be un-average. Thankfully. That's what we got I guess. Unique. Peculiar.
The least popular option in this poll, viz, sending more troops (10%) which has been least popular since Gallup first asked this question in August, 2003, is the stance of the Democratic leadership! When John Kerry ran for president, he was for sending 40,000 more troops, as was the "anti-war" Howard Dean, and that remains their stance to this day. So the Democratic leadership has managed to adopt a stance on the war less popular than Bush's - quite an achievement
Truth Walkers in Oregon City experience a 'Leap of Faith' for gender justice, while Bush drafts gay-bashers for his war on the planet.

It seems some residents of SE Portland don't know that Pocket Motorcycles are Illegal to ride on public streets.
The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is asking Red Lobster to join the list of companies who have responded to The HSUS' call for a boycott of seafood from Canada until that country's annual slaughter of hundreds of thousands of seals is permanently halted. So far they have refused.
The hunt is undeniably cruel—baby and juvenile seals are clubbed or shot to death primarily for their pelts—many are skinned while still alive and conscious. The U.S. has long banned imports of seal products, but the market for seal pelts in Europe provides an incentive for the sealers to take to the ice every spring to kill as many seals as they can. This year's hunt, with over 300,000 seals slaughtered, was the largest killing of marine mammals in the world.
The Subject of National Security, continued
The Rebubbakins in Washington are willing to blow billions of dollars to steal Iraq's riches, but nothing to help poorer families buy houses. They will give corporate welfare out the rump, but won't help the average man. It never occurs to them that corporate welfare, lax pollution regulations and so on are the opposite of their venerated "free market" approach to reality.

The animal rights activists are not giving up. A couple nights ago, my neighbor Eliot Spindel (OHSU Animal Researcher) was re-visited by a group of people with a bullhorn.
Democrats Dennis Kucinich (Ohio) and Neil Abercrombie (Hawaii) have been joined by two populist Republicans - Walter ("freedom fries") Jones (North Carolina) and Ron Paul (Texas) - in introducing legislation to set a time certain for US withdrawal from Iraq. Needless to say, this move is opposed by the White House and by the Republican bosses in the Senate and the House.
That is being reported today: ![]() incidentally as Conyers applies not so subtle pressure to the White House! From the NYT story: "Representative John Conyers Jr., a Michigan Democrat, was convening a forum today on the so-called Downing Street Memo, a leaked document that appeared to suggest that the White House had made a decision to go to war in the summer of 2002." Yes, "appeared to suggest" -- let's not go overboard with this!

I have been monitoring media today to explore coverage of the Conyers hearing and the rally outside the White House.
THE CAT IS DEFINITELY OUT OF THE BAG! (Except probably for FOX.) While we would like NPR to be covering those events, live and in detail, NPR has aired today recorded interviews of two mothers who have lost sons in Iraq combat -- apparently members of the organization "Gold Star Families for Peace." The women were authentic and articulate in stating their objectives in their appearance at yesterday's Gold Star Families for Peace press conference.

Alias 'Bison Boy' wanted facts to support conjectures of electronic mind control. See earlier postings and discussion. If his queries are genuine and others are interested, this posting should help refine the search. This an extremely complex field and crosses over into classified material, which I will not consider or post. I will only post material in the open literature, i.e. the science. 'Bison Boy' did not want to search for this in the articles, which may have changed their listing from my url original address. The articles are real and can be downloaded when located. If someone has the time, they can be found with the information that I provided in previous post.

What will it take for us to regain our self respect? Can we or has this devil inthe White House turned us into a bunch of whinning sniveling cowards? Here's more information saying what we all know inside anyways - now the question arises do we have the gumption to act to cleanse this country or are we destined to be mediocre immoral polluted citizens of a ruined nation.
Social logic is more future-friendly than profit logic. With the end of cheap oil and the dollar crash on the horizon, a basic income would make the future human rather than predatory. Social Darwinism, winner-takes-all hire and fire and the right of the stronger are perverse.
WASHINGTON, June 15 - The House voted Wednesday to block a provision of the USA Patriot Act that makes it easier for federal investigators to review the records of libraries and bookstores on national security grounds.
