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 (…)

Shame on the European newspapers for publishing grossly disrespectful cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), the founder of Islam. One of the original 12 cartoons, which were all first published in a Danish tabloid, in Sept., 2005, showed him wearing a turban shaped like a bomb with a burning fuse. Some of the offensive cartoons were then reprinted in other newspapers in European countries. (1) How would Christians like it, if someone showed Jesus, the "Prince of Peace," with an H-bomb in (…)

(PRWEB) - Duluth, MN (PRWEB) January 30, 2006 — A group of distinguished experts and scholars, including Robert M. Bowman, James H. Fetzer, Wayne Madsen, John McMurtry, Morgan Reynolds, and Andreas von Buelow, have concluded that senior government officials have covered up crucial facts about what really happened on 9/11.
They have joined with others in common cause as members of "Scholars for 9/11 Truth" (S9/11T), because they are convinced, based on their own research, that the (…)

With apologies to Lionel Bart..the music,from OLIVER!,is conspicuous by it’s absense. Small kickbacks, small tortures who would deny us these? Rigged voting, fixed contracts part of our world of sleaze! We do it! We love it! Flying by seats of pants We never tire of it leading this merry dance!

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 (…)

Dear Mr. President Saturday, January 21, 2006 Dear President Bush:
Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God’s Law. I have learned a great deal from your campaign and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination. End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God’s Laws (…)

Bin Laden’s Wasted Warning By Margaret Kimberley February 2, 2006
The most recent message from Osama bin Laden spoke directly to us, the American people. Most Americans either hate or fear bin Laden and with good reason. Like all New Yorkers, I take a very personal interest when bin Laden issues a threat. I think the next attack may have my name on it. Even if fate spares me, I dread living through a repeat of September 11, 2001.
I have another reason for being interested. If Osama is (…)
