None Dare Call It Treason

In the December 12 ruling by the US Supreme Court handing the election to George Bush, the Court committed the unpardonable sin of being a knowing surrogate for the Republican Party instead of being an impartial arbiter of the law. If you doubt this, try to imagine Al Gore's and George Bush's roles being reversed and ask yourself if you can conceive of Justice Antonin Scalia and his four conservative brethren issuing an emergency order on December 9 stopping the counting of ballots (at a time when Gore's lead had shrunk to 154 votes) on the grounds that if it continued, Gore could suffer "irreparable harm," and then subsequently, on December 12, bequeathing the election to Gore on equal protection grounds. If you can, then I suppose you can also imagine seeing a man jumping away from his own shadow, Frenchmen no longer drinking wine.

Where Is The Outrage Over The Murder of a U.S. Citizen?

Last week, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder gave a speech in which he attempted to justify what the administration did. His reasoning was not compelling. In Holder's formulation, the U.S. government has the right to kill citizens if said citizens present an imminent threat of violent attack and if capturing them alive is not a feasible option. It can do this, said Holder, speaking at Northwestern University School of Law, without judicial oversight.

The Collapse of American Democracy

One week ago, US Attorney General Eric Holder delivered a speech asserting the right of the president to secretly order the assassination of American citizens. Citing the so-called “war on terror,” he claimed that this never-before-asserted authority was lawful under the president’s war-making powers and was not subject to judicial review.

Lost in the Equations. Events/Situations that are coming at us from all aspects of Life. Helping Each Other.

Right now, we have the Iranian situation of Israel wanting to blast them off the map. The Syrian situation where the UN is wanting to start sanctions against them, but China and Russia stood up to the UN and U.S. and said NO. The Fukushima situation which is getting worse every day and what I have read today is very disturbing. I saved the information to write about it later. The Euro Zone situation and them kicking the ball down the road to make it last longer. The U.S. government corruption situation where they are doing everything as fast as they can to lock up the citizens of the U.S. and they have taken our freedoms away. The Foreclosure Fraud situation and the U.S. government sanctioning the fraud. The MF Global situation where it shows banks or those in power can literally steal billions from the regular folks and never be arrested or charged and the CEO even being called "Honorable" in the Congressional hearings after he stole the money. The corruption of the Judicial system and Judges to cover up the stealing of the money and even put banks ahead of the people in getting their money. The list keeps going on and on. The Sh** is flying every which way world wide and as soon as we look at one spot we have to turn and look at another. Also do we look at the crisis of humanity? The people of Japan being killed slowly and steadily and the Haitian people who have not gotten the help they have needed and they are still living in horrid conditions almost two years since their quake? The homelessness here in the U.S. from all the foreclosure fraud do we dare look at that with our eyes wide open?

Congressman Introduces Resolution Reaffirming Use of Military Without Congressional Approval is an Impeachable Offense

Sadly we now find ourselves in a country where a Congressman has to essentially issue a veiled threat reminding the military and the Obama Administration of the powers granted to Congress under the Constitution of the United States.

US Congressman introduce a bill to repeal the Federal government’s authority to infinitely detain and torture US citizens without trial.

Members of both the House and Senate Armed Services Committees have announced new legislation that will repeal the most controversial aspects of the NDAA which authorizes the infinite detention of US citizens without trial.

How our Understanding of History is Manipulated

There is much that could be said on this topic, but my main point is that it is absolutely vital for those who have an interest in these matters to critically appreciate and understand the history of how public opinion has been manipulated, how perceptions have been altered, and how half-truths have been purposely put forward by the media. It can be argued that in this way the media support the "Military Industrial Complex's" agenda [17].
