  • Election Fraud: Team Bush Paid 8 Million for Dirty Tricks to suppress votes-and Tried to Hide It
    13 July 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    In the months before the 2004 presidential election, a firm called Sproul & Associates launched voter registration drives in at least eight states, most of them swing states. The group—run by Nathan Sproul, former head of the Arizona Christian Coalition and the Arizona Republican Party—had been hired by the Republican National Committee.
    Sproul got into a bit of trouble last fall when, in certain states, it came out that the firm was playing dirty tricks in order to suppress the (…)

    Now who’s ridiculous?
    On October 1, 2003, during the "ongoing investigation" of the Valerie Plame leak scandal, White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan said it was a "ridiculous suggestion" that Rove was "involved in leaking classified information." Following the recent revelations that Rove identified the undercover CIA agent in an e-mail to a Time magazine reporter, McClellan refused to answer any questions about Rove. NBC White House news correspondent (…)

    The news out of Iraq was more of the same this week, and the signs from Fort Monmouth, N.J., to Sydney, Australia, from the Pentagon to Rome, were that the world’s people, including those in the U.S. armed forces, are fed up with the occupation.
    On July 11, a bomb killed 20 Iraqis west of Baghdad who were waiting to enlist for a job with the pro-occupation army. Resistance fighters killed another 10 Iraqi troops outside Baquba in a firefight. According to the Graduate Institute of (…)

    DOES GEORGE BUSH LIE?
    By Peter Fredson
    July 12, 2005
    If the words someone speaks do not match reality, are they lies? If a person sincerely believes what he is saying but the words are not true, is that still a lie? If a person suffers from megalomania and announces that he is Napoleon or Jesus or a deity, is it a lie from his standpoint? If we strongly disbelieve someone saying they are Napoleon or Jesus or a deity doesn’t that make them a liar?
    When we examine a person’s (…)

    Certainly no one is suggesting the "B" come out of the GLBT movement, but a new study by a group of researchers in Chicago and Toronto questions how widespread bisexuality is in men and shows a need for more comprehensive studies to examine the topic.
    The controversial experiment recruited 101 young men from ads placed in gay and alternative newspapers, with 33 identifying as bisexual, 30 as heterosexual and 38 as gay. The psychologists had the men rate their desires from (…)

  • The London Bombings and the Class War

    The terror bombings in London differ from the atrocities committed against the people of Iraq only in scale. In Iraq well over 100,000 people have been butchered by the US/UK killing machine. In London as many as 50 people were killed and hundreds injured. In both cases the killed and injured are the victims of actions designed to terrorize, demobilize, and control innocent people.
    We do not yet know who is responsible for the atrocities in London. Responsibility has (…)

  • False flag over London

    by John Leonard
    Yesterday we saw a classic false flag attack in London, organized by western secret services to distract attention from the deepening political troubles of Bush and Blair, and perhaps even to create the pretext for war on Iran. Of course, Bush and his poll ratings have been sinking under scandals and rumblings of impeachment. Blair too has been badly hurt by the Downing Street memo.
    For giving the lowdown on the London underground, I was roundly rebuked today, accused of (…)

    Jul 11, 10:13 PM (ET) By PETE YOST
    WASHINGTON (AP) - For the better part of two years, the word coming out of the Bush White House was that presidential adviser Karl Rove had nothing to do with the leak of a female CIA officer’s identity and that whoever did would be fired.
    But Bush spokesman Scott McClellan wouldn’t repeat those claims Monday in the face of Rove’s own lawyer, Robert Luskin, acknowledging the political operative spoke to Matthew Cooper of Time magazine, one of the (…)

    If a Mob Boss Says to a Hit Man, "Kill Jim Smith’s Wife," Can He Claim He Didn’t Order the Murder Because He Didn’t Mention Her Name? Apparently, That’s Karl Rove’s Thinking.
    We’ve warned BuzzFlash readers not to get too overjoyed about the reports of Karl Rove being nailed as one of the two people who outed Valerie Plame as a CIA operative specializing in tracking the illicit sales of WMD at a time that he was orchestrating the propaganda to start a war based on a nation possessing (…)
