By Peter Fredson
July 3, 2007
It is no surprise. Everyone expected some stupid action from our Heroic Leader, and it came. Bush just commuted the sentence of Scooter Libby, before he served even one day of time. He said that poor Scooter’s sentence was “excessive”, “harsh” for outing CIA agent Valerie Wilson. His heart evidently bleeds for injustice to his cronies, although he seems to see no harsh or excessive penalties in thousands of other cases around (…)

July 2, 2007
My Fellow Americans:

Zyklon B on the US Border
By ALEXANDER COCKBURN
Zyklon B came to El Paso in the 1920s. In 1929, for example, a U.S. Public Health Service officer, J.R. Hurley, ordered $25 worth of the material—hydrocyanic acid in pellet form—as a fumigating agent for use at the El Paso delousing station, where Mexicans crossed the border from Juárez. Zyklon, developed by DEGESCH (the German Vermin-combating Corporation) was made in varying strengths, with Zyklon C, D and E representing gradations in (…)

Once again, we find our political leadership united around a very bad idea, ethanol and other biofuels to help gain "energy independence," to "help farmers" and most importantly, to help citizens avoid the harsh reality of peak oil converging with unsustainable lifestyles.
