    The Silence of the Scams: Psychological Resistance to Facing Election Fraud
    BY DIANE PERLMAN
    Invisible History
    Few Americans know about the historic event that happened on January 6, 2005, the official date for counting electoral votes. For the first time since 1877, congressmembers challenged the electoral count. Representative Stephanie Tubbs-Jones of Ohio, accompanied by the lone senator, Barbara Boxer of California, led the challenge to the Ohio vote count. Although massive (…)

    Chickenshit Nation:
    What is up with people these days? The feds have got you looking under every shoe for a dirty bomber, every turban for a nuclear handkerchief, every bed for the Bogeyman.
    All they had to do was say a bunch of bull-puckey on the TV day after day after day and make it look like anyone that is even slightly cross-eyed or tanned is OUT TO GET YOU. Every day you watch the NEWS. This many people died here, that many people died there, this was done to them, that was (…)

    George W. Bush is suffering from a peculiar but not that uncommon form of madness in which a pathological part of his psyche has co-opted all of the healthy parts into its service. Speaking about such a pathological condition, Jung commented that “...an unknown ‘something’ has taken possession of a smaller or greater portion of the psyche and asserts its hateful and harmful existence undeterred by all our insight, reason, and energy, thereby proclaiming the power of the unconscious over the (…)

    A letter to William P. Leahy, SJ, president of BU
    Dear Father Leahy,
    I am writing to resign my post as an adjunct professor of English at Boston College.
    I am doing so — after five years at BC, and with tremendous regret — as a direct result of your decision to invite Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to be the commencement speaker at this year’s graduation.
    Many members of the faculty and student body already have voiced their objection to the invitation, (…)

    The only way we can secure our borders is to pass an enforcement-only bill, and then see to it that it is actually enforced. Our nation’s security cannot be held hostage to the politics of amnesty any longer.
    Fact is, 20 million people have invaded America, and no one, not even President Bush, knows a damn thing about any of them. Except, that is, those illegal aliens who are 29% of the inmate population in federal prisons.
    Bush seems to believe that Hispanic migrants are above the law, (…)

    With House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi telling us that Democrats will not try to impeach Bush now or later, we have an admission that the rule of law is now dead in America. At least it’s dead with Nancy Pelosi. She wants to appease us with legislative perks. Her strategy: It doesn’t matter that we’ve lost the Constitution, we’ll make it up to you with a better drug prescription plan. (She smiles... Applause!)
    I don’t see any real signs of life anywhere else in Congress either. Apparently (…)
