    I believe Dennis Kucinich,Russ Feingold and Cindy Sheenan deserves the JFK award, more than John Murtha by Sue West
    In my opinion, Dennis Kucinich, Russ Feingold and Cindy Sheenan, deserves the JFK award, more so than Murtha does!

Nevertheless, when the activists attempted to (…)

    Solidarity Street Demonstrations To Demand US Keep Hands Off Venezuela and Cuba
    By Stephen Lendman
    May 16, 2006
    Maybe it’s just a coincidence that just days before an international expression of solidarity demanding the US keep its hands off Venezuela and Cuba, Rep. Dan Burton (a right wing Republican in good standing) introduced an anti-Venezuelan resolution in the US House of Representatives. His resolution on May 11 was just another step along the way in the Bush administration’s (…)
