“We’re going to invite George and Laura-and tell Laura to bring the turkey,”
Cindy Sheehan made a return visit to the streets of New York Wednesday, joining the weekly vigil of Grandmothers Against the War outside Rockefeller Center.
In contrast to the scene in Union Square last month, when the police stormed the podium and cut off Sheehan’s mic, this time the NYPD went out of its way to be gracious to America’s leading peace mom.
Police politely urged the jostling (…)

WASHINGTON - An angry President Bush rebuked chief political guru Karl Rove two years ago for his role in the Valerie Plame affair, sources told the Daily News.
"He made his displeasure known to Karl," a presidential counselor told The News. "He made his life miserable about this."
Bush has nevertheless remained doggedly loyal to Rove, who friends and even political adversaries acknowledge is the architect of the President’s rise from baseball owner to leader of (…)

THE SIGH of relief for General Motors is a fresh reason for Americans to scream for a national solution on healthcare. Staggered by $3.8 billion in losses so far this year, but holding the leverage of cutting jobs, GM got the United Auto Workers to agree to a tentative contract that will probably triple or quadruple the contribution of workers to their healthcare.
Up to now, union members paid 7 percent of healthcare costs. Salaried GM employees are (…)

Force feeding is in itself torture - Doctors and all military and government paid personnel involved are complicit in such torture and must be prosecuted for war crimes.
One of the most...one of the most emotional things that I might say that I saw down there was the conditions and how they deteriorated within the time frame that I was there, the emotional and mental conditions of the prisoners themselves.

WHAT COURSE?
By Peter Fredson
October 20, 2005
For over a year practically every Bush speech mentioned “Staying the Course.” First, it is well known that Bush employs Newspeak to disguise what he really means. The Bush regime is one of the most secretive in our history, and it spins whatever truth there might be in some pronouncement for maximum deniability.
Second: “To stay a course” does not mean what Bush intends it to mean. “To stay a course” is a nautical phrase meaning “Stop (…)

"Neo-conned"
The modern-day, limited-government movement has been co-opted. The conservatives have failed in their effort to shrink the size of government. There has not been, nor will there soon be, a conservative revolution in Washington. Political party control of the federal government has changed, but the inexorable growth in the size and scope of government has continued unabated. The liberal (…)
