Spetember 9...The National Reconnaissance Office lauched a sattellite. It's purpose?
Intellectual property rights are a ticking time bomb. It seems fairly obvious that artists wouldn't want their stuf sent around just anywhere for free, and without even knowing about it. It is less obvious that the same legal maneuvers are used to "patent" the genome of a rice plant or "own" someone's cell line (someone besides the new owner, that is.)
In any case, suing 12-year olds for copying songs seems like a good way to eliminate the desire for recorded music. Live music might inadvertently get a boost from all this

Dean told TruthOut.org in May 2003 that the United States needs "a new oil policy... because our oil money is being used to fund terrorism in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran and Syria."
First it was "Cheese Eating Surrender Monkeys." Now it is "Chocolate Makers." God, the American Government is populated by geniuses, tremendously creative geniuses! If you want an insult, call the State Department! BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
"Narcotics have been systematically scapegoated and demonized. The idea that anyone can use drugs and escape a horrible fate is an anathema to these idiots. I predict that in the near future right-wingers will use drug hysteria as a pretext to set up an international police apparatus."

Umm, Uncle Karl, Daddy's Boy is gonna be pissed if you don't get those Big Media guys back in line....they're starting to report that not all is well in Bush's Amerika.

Second-draft of Orrin Hatch's so-called Victory Act Obtained
Hey, I wonder why the American media didn't cover this story which made headlines in Europe and around the world... Message to the American government: more and more people are waking up to what you did on 9-11. No amount disinformation, lies, and propaganda can stop the truth from coming out. All your shrill and self-righteous denials (see below) can cover up what must be one of the greatest crimes ever committed by a nation and government that has the gall to preach and posture about "freedom and democracy" to others. Make no mistake, a day of reckoning is coming for the American Empire and the American government in particular. Make Allah have mercy on your soul, because no one else will.

After refusing many pleas to run for governor, I have reconsidered and now enter the race as an unofficial write-in candidate. After all, why should I remain the ONLY nutcase in California who ain't running?
Filmmaker Leans Right, Oval Office Swings Open
The message did not come from Republican campaign officials, but from top Bristol-Myers Squibb executives, according to four execs who say that during the 2000 presidential campaign, they each were told to donate the maximum - $1000 in their own name and $1000 in their spouse's - and if they failed to do so, their names would be forwarded to the company's then chief executive, Charles Heimbold.
Federal election law bars companies from using coercion to force a person to make a political contribution.
For the most part, the alarmists have simply moved from citing solid data to using estimates and from using U.S. figures to citing worldwide ones, all of which are estimates.
Let's talk about "Collateral Damage". Where did this term come from? How did collateral damage become the description for civilian deaths in what have been illegal wars perpetrated by America?
Based on what I have heard, the spin doctors have written a speech for Bush to deliver to the American people Sunday evening which explains that the billion dollar a week cost of the Iraq invasion is worth it, because it will help to win the war on terrorism. I think I could do a better job than those sorry spin doctors...
Well, it seems the PNAC has created a spin-off organization (non-profit, of course): The Committee for the Liberation of Iraq.
www.liberationiraq.org Make SURE you look at the list of names for the Advisory Committee and the International Advisory Committee. Lots of people associated with NATO and the Balkans (very surprised I didn't see Gen. Clark's name there.......but I have NO DOUBT in my mind that his potential candidacy for prez or VP is being fueled by this crowd. Which opens some doors about DEAN and his desire to have Clark run as VP -- another topic, another day). I think we will be hearing from and about the CLI......
We all put all the pieces of the puzzle together about the neo-con agenda and all the horrors associated with that.
And we are critical of the elected officials who are letting the neo-con agenda come to pass..... And we go around in circles everytime some new lie, distortion, propaganda or outright crime against humanity occurs..... But for the life of me......the one element in this whole mess that I can't figure out is WHY the American people are not only allowing this to happen, but are applauding it and egging it on. It just makes my brain spasm to think about it. And the TRUTH of the matter is: if THE PEOPLE objected to what is happening, it would stop. The power of the govt is fueled by THE PEOPLE. So, why aren't they stopping this? I ran across the excerpt from a book.....that really resonates with me........
President George W. Bush's job performance ratings have reached the lowest point since his pre-Inauguration days, continuing a steady decline since a post-9/11 peak, according to a new Zogby America poll of 1,013 likely voters conducted September 3-5.

"The US wages a pure imperial war of conquest with the admitted lies that its own country and the world had to be preventively defended against the threat of weapons of mass destruction...Everyone defended the front of silence toward an unwilling but brainwashed population.. A great international solidarity is necessary.. in that country where the `egomaniac' national security strategy was worked out." Trans fr German
"According to a congressional report leaked out several days ago, the US will be strained financially and militarily in a few months in Iraq. No wonder they are looking around for other sponsors and more soldiers. The UN must not be used as Washington's war chest." Translated from the German
Bringing Bush lies and propaganda to light: This speech got rave reviews from Moveon commentators.

Check this out. This article is suggesting that the USA and Al-Queda might be secretly working on a "truce" no less! This is the same Evil-doing Al-Queda which the USA holds responsible for the death of 3000 people on 9-11. Whatever happened to "smoking them out of their holes dead or alive"? If this article is true, it is more proof that the entire American "War on Terrorism" is a Utter and Complete Fraud to begin with--a fundamental point which the Controlled Opposition... I mean Liberal antiwar "activists" always cover up.
Arcata, CA holds town hall meeting to discuss an impeachment resolution for pResident Bush. The resolution bases its call for impeachment on the grounds that Bush and Cheney lied to Congress and the American people about Iraq's WMD's, nuclear program and ties to al Qaeda in order to promote a war that was illegal under the United Nations Charter and therefore, also under the United States Constitution. Such lies and prosecution of an illegal war meet the constitutional requirement for impeachment as "high crimes and misdemeanors," and in light of the continuing slaughter of both Iraqis and Americans, seem far more serious than Clinton's lies concerning his sexual exploits in the Oval Office.
Bush to address nation on Iraq
Sept. 5 — As the members of the U.N. Security Council wrestled with a U.S. proposal designed to attract more money and troops from other countries for Iraq, the White House announced that President Bush would address the nation Sunday night on the subject of Iraq amid growing U.S. casualties and criticism about Bush's handling of the war, diplomacy and the fight against terrorism.

There has always been a wealthy elite in this country, and there has always been a gap between the rich and the poor. But the disparities in wealth and income that currently exist in this country have not been seen in over a hundred years. Today, the richest 1 percent own more wealth than the bottom 95 percent, and the CEOs of large corporations earn more than 500 times what their average employees make. The nation's 13,000 wealthiest families, 1/100th of one percent of the population, receive almost as much income as the poorest 20 million families in America.
"Imperial overreach" threatens Europe's economic resources and military arsenals already strained to the limit.. US policy coupled unimaginativeness with failure or ineffectiveness..

His article is translated from the German in Freitag.

Interesting article concerning Howard Dean and his Internet shock troops who seem to have made an appearance on Portland Indymedia recently. This seems to corroborate the idea that Dean (like all the other pResidential candidates) are using "viral marketing" or "astroturf" political tactics. This description seems particularly apt: "And in an age when online commentators blast their critics around the clock, the Dean Defense Forces site uses comparable artillery, unloading on selected targets with a clever, cynical, sometimes sneering tone."
Disappointment with Boston Indymedia and the attitudes of the "Disorganized Resistance".
Russian dictator Joseph Stalin once said: "Those who cast the votes decide nothing. Those who count the votes decide everything."

With polls showing that up to 16% of the electorate is philosophically libertarian, this could be the real swing vote in 2004. Will libertarians decide that the Democratic candidate is the lesser of two evils for once? Or will they simply stay home in disgust on Election Day?
