    SUE ZEIDLER IN LOS ANGELES
    THEY are victims of the United States’ growing mortgage crisis - low-paid workers whose homes have been repossessed amid rising interest rates, a stagnant property market and a lax lending regime.
    But in Los Angeles, where having a car is as essential as owning a home, many are sleeping in their vehicles to ensure a roof over their head.
    Campaigners for the homeless expect more to hole up in their cars as they lose homes due to the problems that have dogged (…)

    When Bush asked the FBI "Do we have the evidence?", Tennent responded "It’s a slam dunk!"
    Colin Powell at the U.N. "The evidence is solid. Iraq has the WMDs"
    Rumsfeld, when asked about WMDs (where are they?). He responded "We know for a fact that they are somewhere around the center of Baghdad..here, and here, and around here"

  • Gay Equality Needs to Get Out of the Religious Civil Wars!
    24 March 2007 par (Open-Publishing)

    We’ve been warned! Gay Equality Needs to Get Out of the Religious Civil Wars! We’ve been warned! Religious fundies are going to now use the tactic of lobbying all 50 state legislatures to demand that Congress pass an anti-gay constitutional amendment outlawing same-gender marriage. ( http://okstonewall.org/forums/index.php?topic=1663.0 ) Ever notice that the history of homophobia has nearly always been rooted in religious dogma? With the halting progress that gay equality has (…)

    According to many Right wing pundits in the US and many "boots on the ground" officers, things are definately on the mend in Iraq.
    Yes, I noticed.
    Daily I.E.D.s, mortars,assassinations and suicide bombers. 3 hours avg. of electricity daily, for most provinces. Sewage lines a mess after 4 years of war!
    Oil pipelines regularly bombed, and black marketeers siphoning off over $5 billion a year for black market sales. Porn houses flourishing! Arms and drug smuggling up! Corrupt Iraqi (…)

    Can George W. Bush Be Purged? Mayan priests purified their sacred land after Shrub scurried off. Can we do the same? By Mark Morford, SF Gate Columnist
    Friday, March 16, 2007
    Sage is always good. Or maybe lavender. Pine is nice, too. Dried, bundled, tied with string, burned with hot, divine intent. Would it work? Do we have enough to go around? This is the question.
    I speak, of course, of ritual. Purging and cleansing and purifying and, truly, burning a nicely dried, blessed smudge (…)

    “Early last week, I was having dinner with an old friend of my wife’s who works for the Justice Department as an analyst. During the course of the meal, he mentioned a lengthy report he has on his desk about Vice President Cheney.

    Pres. Bush, DeLay, Perle and others are collaborators against the American people
    By Mary MacElveen
    March 19, 2007
    In inviting former Congressman Tom DeLay onto their program to discuss the Iraq War, ‘Meet the Press’ lowered the bar for honest debate. After all, he resigned his office because he was indicted. His voice should carry absolutely no weight as this war is discussed. He has no right to interject his feelings and opinions of this war as he did so with the Terrie Schiavo (…)
