    2006 The Year The Chickenhawks will go home to roost by Cindy Sheehan Wed Dec 28, 2005 at 02:07:09 PM PDT
    Since hot, hot Camp Casey in August, some amazing grass roots actions have taken place all over the country. People are starting to speak up and Congress has begun to take action against the criminal and neo-Fascist regime that tried to take over America.

    By RON FOURNIER
    FORT MYERS, Fla. - Frustrated by government and empowered by technology, Americans are filling needs and fighting causes through grass-roots organizations they built themselves - some sophisticated, others quaintly ad hoc. This is the era of people-driven politics.
    From a homemaker-turned-kingmaker in Pittsburgh to dog owners in New York to a "gym rat" here in southwest Florida, people are using the Internet to do what politicians can’t - or won’t - do.
    This is their (…)

    I have been in Europe for 2 weeks now. I have been toasted by the Mayor of London, Ken Livingston, and greeted by Foreign Ministers, a Vice President and members of the various Parliaments. Those stories are for another article.
    My highest honor both here in the States and in Europe now is meeting with the families of children murdered in George Bush’s War of Terror against the world.
    No matter if we all speak differently accented English, Spanish, or the heavy (…)

    A violent attack is underway in Italy against the law n. 194 which regards the ‘norms protecting maternity and voluntary pregnancy termination’. The attempt is to curb the rights of women to self-determination and to diminish the responsibility women have long exercised and demonstrated in procreation.
    We believe the 194 is a good law which enables women to use their freedom responsibly.
    We believe this law has not boosted abortion but has granted the support (…)
