    The President passed through his State of the Union address — ill-digested chunks of so many other speeches he’s given ("We’re writing a new chapter in the story of self-government — with women lining up to vote in Afghanistan, and millions of Iraqis marking their liberty with purple ink...) — largely untouched by the media. His two Supreme Court-changing appointments, Roberts and Alito, were triumphantly in the front row of the audience. Undoubtedly, it wasn’t a bad way for a (…)

  • What Really Happened

    by Cindy Sheehan Dear Friends,
    As most of you have probably heard, I was arrested before the State of the Union Address tonight.
    I am speechless with fury at what happened and with grief over what we have lost in our country.
    There have been lies from the police and distortions by the press. (Shocker) So this is what really happened:
    This afternoon at the People’s State of the Union Address in DC where I was joined by Congresspersons Lynn Woolsey and John Conyers, Ann Wright, Malik (…)

    PM promised to be ’solidly behind’ US invasion with or without UN backing
    by Richard Norton-Taylor

    By Representative Maxine Waters
    Washington, D.C. - Today, Rep. Maxine Waters (CA-35) expressed her support for a petition that is being filed before the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. The petition seeks to establish that the Bush Administration participated in a coup d’etat to overthrow President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, the democratically-elected President of Haiti, in February of 2004, and, in so doing, violated the democratic rights of the people of Haiti. The Congresswoman’s (…)

    In my piece concerning John Edwards which ran this past week, I wrote: "In the November 28, 2005, issue of ’The Nation,’ John Edwards was quoted as saying: "I voted for the resolution ... it was a mistake."
    I have to add that I respect anyone, regardless of what decision they made in the past, when they see that it was wrong. I have deep respect when they come out of the political closet and with humility to state that their vote was a "mistake."
    With that said, I (…)

    Bush War Plans Delusion From Start By Bill Gallagher January 17, 2006 Detroit - The predictions of President George W. Bush and his minions are predictably wrong. The Busheviks’ latest Iraq war predictions are, as always, wildly off the mark and make astrological predictions seem like hard science. "We will settle for nothing less than complete victory," Bush told the Veterans of Foreign Wars last week. He made glowing predictions about continued political progress in Iraq, declaring in (…)

    Blinded By Democracy Georgie Anne Geyer February 01, 2006 WASHINGTON, D.C. - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice’s frank words after the gigantic Hamas electoral victory in Gaza last weekend should be engraved in bronze in a prominently displayed plaque in the lobby of the State Department. No, I take that back. Identical plaques should be hung in the lobby of the Pentagon, over the secretary of Defense’s desk, at the entrance to the Oval Office in the White House and in the vice (…)
