    Threats to Hugo Chavez As Venezuela’s December Presidential Election Approaches - by Stephen Lendman
    On December 3, 2006 voters in Venezuela will again get to choose who’ll lead them as President for the next six years. There’s no doubt who that will be as the people’s choice is the same man they first elected their leader in December, 1998 with 56% of the vote and reelected him in July, 2000 after the adoption of the Bolivarian Republic’s new Constitution with a 60% total. They then saw (…)

    "Amoralism is only possible if you are...always somewhere else when the trigger is pulled." - George Orwell (1)
    The voters in the state of Connecticut may hold the key to the future well-being of our Republic! I’m not overstating this matter. If the rabid warmonger Joseph I. Lieberman, an unrepentant Israeli Firster, shameless pusher of the draconian USA Patriot Act and the Military Commissions Law, and a turncoat Democrat, now running as an Independent, can win a fourth term in the U.S. (…)

    October 31, 2006
    Before I have a conversation with all of you, I want you to please take a look at the picture below and gaze upon this little girl’s face for a moment or two. She is deserving of your attention. She is the representation of all little girls who must now go on living life without her father. As many have focused in on the children of Iraq in this heinous war, we often (…)

    To Peter King and Italo Zanzi: Now what were you saying of border security? By Mary MacElveen October 30, 2006
    I need all of you to read in its entirety Cong. Ron Paul’s press release in which he speaks of the NAFTA Superhighway. For those of you who would even vote for a congressional candidate that screams at the top of their lungs for border security such as incumbent Peter King (R 3rd Cong. Dist., NY) and Italo Zanzi who is the Republican challenger to Congressman, Tim Bishop (D 1st (…)

    Russia Warns Israel Over ‘Madman’ Ascending to Power
    By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
    Kremlin sources are reporting today that President Putin has issued a ‘stark’ warning to Israel’s embattled Prime Minister Olmert that the ascendancy to power of the ‘Madman’ Avigdor Lieberman to the highest reaches of the Israeli Government would most certainly cause Russia to completely ‘reevaluate’ relations between our two Nations.

    A brief history of the Bush Administration. Just a reminder of how utterly FAKE and insincere a government can be:
    1999 Karl Rove and others approach Bush in Texas and suggest he run for president. He was the governor of Texas and OK’d the death penalty for 152 prisoners without even one reprieve!
    2000 Members of the Neocon group in the Pentagon begin discussing with George W. Bush the prospect of attacking Iraq. Dick Cheney, always the power hungry freak,campaigns for the VP position (…)
