Guess who's coming to dinner? The President of the United States. But for the U.S. media, this peculiar party crashing by President Bush was a Big Moment, not an embarrassment.
It has come to my attention that PGE is making automated phone calls, after hours, to intimidate and harass people in arrears to their life dependent power. We need it to cook, for communication, and refrigeration. These things are crucial for some of us to survive.
Summary of the KBOO am news for Wednesday, June 14th, 2006.
President Bush's trip to Baghdad Tuesday has been hailed by the American media and official Washington as something of a political masterstroke. In fact, the sudden trip, conducted in secrecy even from the Iraqi government that holds nominal sovereignty in the US-occupied country, was a demonstration of both the dire state of affairs in Iraq and the political isolation and disorientation of the Bush administration.
No amount of "spin" can alter the sense of something degrading and even ludicrous in the spectacle of an American president stealing into a foreign capital, spending five hours on the ground in a series of stage-managed and largely meaningless public appearances, and then flying off under cover of darkness, never having left the safety of the fortified Green Zone in downtown Baghdad. The most remarkable fact of the visit was that the Iraqi prime minister, Nouri al-Maliki, was informed of Bush's presence in his country only five minutes before he was ushered in to meet the US president. Until then, Maliki had been led to believe he was going to the US embassy to participate in a videoconference with Bush and his war cabinet, ensconced in the presidential retreat at Camp David, Maryland.

Thank you for your article (link below) on Howard and particularly for highlighting his disregard for Australian youth. I am appalled by his attitude to young Australians. Australia has one of the highest youth suicide rates in the developed world and little wonder; the short-term interests of corporate profit, crushing taxation laws and the introduction of 'guest workers' have stolen the future from the majority of our youth. Our youth now experience ever-increasing difficulty obtaining work skills needed for their survival.
The recent USA Today revelation that three major phone companies have (allegedly) been providing phone call records to the NSA shouldn't come as a shock. Our government has been seeking to harness maximum data for many years—for all kinds of purposes, legitimate and illegitimate. As technology has advanced, so too have the means of harvesting and mining digital information. Just about everything about anybody or anything can be datamined by those with the motive, means, and opportunity. Just who are these people, and who's giving them a license to delve into our records?

America's corporate NAZI propagandists, who deny truths to be

There are now warrants out for 7 of our Six Nations men. One is even charged with "attempted murder". We didn't see any weapons or any premeditated criminal intent. The only people doing something they planned in advance were the OPP, ATF & (US) Border Patrol. The two incidents on Friday June 12th, 2006, were obviously orchestrated.
Great fucking idea! Sad, sick, and true all at the same time.

It's not difficult to arrive at an accurate assessment of the present Oz leadership, the government of John Howard. Love Howard or not, he has the local population eating his lies like it was manna from heaven. Howard's treasurer recently announced that the Oz government was out of debt, in view of a national foreign debt of $493 billion, the highest ever recorded by an astronomical 'mile', the announcement of no government debt becomes meaningless double-talk. But which figure does the public prefer to embrace? The lie of course, it's far more comforting - the media's emphasis on the treasurer's remarks at the expense of the horrendous crippling debt is not unintentional.
