So the big controversy today (Tues,Halloween), is John Kerry’s urging of young men (and women) to get a solid educaton or they might wind up fighting in Iraq. On the surface it LOOKS like Kerry is dissing the US military (as I’ve read elsewhere). In my opinion: No way! He is just counceling those who might NOT choose to run off to any so-called "noble war" just because they have no alternative, because they need the money.
John Kerry, although not my choice for president (didn’t fight (…)

Several members of Congress have expressed interest in receiving the Appeal for Redress.
Click here to send the Appeal to your elected representatives.
It appears that the Corporate media is afraid of the growing movement to truly support the troops by bringing them home, so they are attempting to discredit the “appeal for redress” website and active duty troops on the growing list with their recent article “Activists can’t validate soldiers’ names”
A group claiming earlier (…)

The British government today comes under attack for its growing use of mercenaries in conflict zones while failing to introduce legislation to tackle their human rights abuses. A new report launched today by the charity War on Want reveals that no prosecutions have followed hundreds of accounts of personnel from private military and security firms committing abuses in Iraq.

Before I have a conversation with all of you, I want you to please take a look at the picture below and gaze upon this little girl’s face for a moment or two. She is deserving of your attention. She is the representation of all little girls who must now go on living life without her father. As many have focused in on the children of Iraq in this heinous war, we often (…)

By Mary MacElveen
October 30, 2006
In the race for New York State Comptroller which pits the Democrat incumbent Alan Hevesi against his Republican challenger, Chris Callahan to those who are vested in the New York State retirement fund, I want you to look at Callahan and think Enron.

For life is a tragedy, wherein we sit as Spectators awhile, and act out our own Part in it.
Jonathan Swift
Now that October and late-day sunshine recede into oblivion, and there has been no "October Surprise," the world can breathe easier. Right? Don’t bet on it. In this environment, ruled principally by knaves and fools, it’s not wise to count your chickens too early. November, after all, is the 9th inning (politically speaking) and there are two outs - Iraq and Afghanistan. Is it (…)

To Peter King and Italo Zanzi: Now what were you saying of border security? By Mary MacElveen October 30, 2006
I need all of you to read in its entirety Cong. Ron Paul’s press release in which he speaks of the NAFTA Superhighway. For those of you who would even vote for a congressional candidate that screams at the top of their lungs for border security such as incumbent Peter King (R 3rd Cong. Dist., NY) and Italo Zanzi who is the Republican challenger to Congressman, Tim Bishop (D 1st (…)
