It seems that hardly a week goes by that I don’t receive email from someone asking how they can get out of the military. Sometimes the person is disillusioned — perhaps their recruiter lied to them, or perhaps they had "selective listening," and only heard what they wanted to hear.

If you thought this was an article detailing the "secret tips" to getting (…)

Wisconsin Towns Vote for Withdrawal
6 April 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
by John Nichols
In November 2004, the village of Luxemburg, Wisconsin, voted to re-elect George W. Bush by a hefty margin of 701 to 431. Always a GOP stronghold, the community voted for other Republicans as well, even the challenger to popular Democratic Senator Russ Feingold, who was winning by a landslide statewide.
There’s not much question that the majority of the 2,000 residents of this rural northeastern Wisconsin village of well-maintained homes, neat storefronts and large (…) -

Little known Shakespeare: Bush speaks
6 April 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
These passages, culled from Shakespeare, reveal the truth about our "noble" leader.
"I have touched the lowest point of all my greatness, and from this full meridian of my glory haste now to my settling. I am falling like a gasped exhalation,and men hope to see me no more"
"I see your pockets are full of dicontent,your hearts of sorrow,and your eyes of tears"
"I observe my shakey reputation is at stake, and my undeserved fame is shrewdly gored"

Iraq’s US/UK Permanent Bases : Intentional Obfuscation
6 April 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
By Sarah Meyer
There is Pentagon and US governmental obfuscation surrounding United States permanent bases in Iraq. Whilst Donald Rumsfeld, US Secretary of Defence, continues to deny a permanent US presence there, the facts appear to contradict his statements.
In February 2002, Zoltan Grossman wrote the following cogent perception entitled New US Bases: Side Effects or Causes of War? “Even if this administration pulls combat troops out of Iraq in the future, it intends to keep at least (…) -

3 commentsWhy has the story of that male prostitute posing as a white house reporter with 24/7 access to the white house never been fully investigated? The American mainstream media never really covered it and Congress refused to investigate this scandal. I have tried to find recent stories on this story online and it seems like it was just dropped. Bill Clinton was impeached for less but George W. Bush skated on this juicy tidbit. Let’s remedy this injustice.

Major league baseball is as American as apple pie. For the first time in the history of the storied Cincinnati Reds’ franchise, a sitting president, George W. Bush, threw out the “ceremonial” opening day pitch, on April 3, 2006. Comedian Jay Leno said on the “Tonight” show that evening, that the presidential toss at the National League game against the Chicago Cubs, like Bush’s politics, went off to the “far right.” Instead of (…) -

Why Democrats Are At Least Half of the Problem
By JOZEF HAND-BONIAKOWSKI
In a recent give and take email with a liberal, "progressive" Democrat in Vermont, I discovered what Democrats really feel about people who vote for third party candidates, and especially what they feel about Ralph Nader. 2006 is, after all, an election year, and we, the people, must elect Democrats to "take our country back". No? The talk-show hosts say so, (…)
