  • TRUTH WAS THE FIRST CASUALTY

    [Read the article: "Missing" evidence is familiar Bush pattern]

    "There are no sides. There's no Sunnis and Shiites. There's no Democrats and Republicans. There are only the HAVES, and the HAVE-NOTS"

    -Senator Charles F. Meachum, from the

    movie, "Shooter".

    This is the State of our Nation in December, 2007.

    Wealthy Criminals Rule in Washington, and the Citizenry look on helplessly in disbelief.

    Ron Paul for President.

  • NOW THAT IT'S OVER OVER THERE....

    Can we send ALL these self appointed Nooz Guyz over to Iraq, where they can go out into the streets and retort, er, I mean, report, first hand on all that peace and prosperity???.....I didn't think so.....the really "in the know" reporterz get a much better idea of the real goings-on in Iraq from copying word for word what they're told by the Pentagon briefers anyway. They get a much clearer picture of the truth than if they actually saw it first hand,.....or asked questions......

    That's so 1970's.....

  • CRIMINAL PRESIDENT, CRIMINAL DEEDS

    [Read the article: Blackwater in Baghdad: "It was a horror movie"]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    We now reside in the former United States of America.

    What we have become is a Fascist Dictatorship, bent on World Domination and Endless War and Occupation for Profit.

    Corporations gain unfettered access to Government, while citizens are told to go pound sand up their asses.

    Don't like the War???, tough shit, we don't care. Don't like being spyed on daily??, your phone calls and e-mail monitored for "anti-government" content??? Too fucking bad, blow us.

    Yes, the former GOP has come full circle from a Party that used to say, "less government intrusion into our lives", to the now familiar, "Get on your fucking knees and shut your mouth before I tazer your ass"!!!

    Then there's the Democratic Party, that rode to the rescue when called upon by America to save us from the Neocon/PNAC

    GOPervs and their Criminal Overlords.

    And what did they do?? Nothing,...nada, zip, zilch, squat, zero. Oh, they made sour faces and every once in a while stated how upset they were at what was going on, usually right before passing the latest request for continuance of Plunder, Rape and Murder. Hey, they didn't have a choice, dammit!!, they would have been thought weak on terra, whatever that means, and besides, they have to pass legislation quickly if they want to get back to their mansions and secluded high dollar getaways for the Holidays.

    They have managed to vote themselves a few pay raises though,

    unlike the rest of us, who wait for the lay-off notice and announcement that the Company is moving it's Headquarters to India or China, which ever offers the best slave labor agreement.

    So when you get angry and depressed about all that's come to pass these last 7 long, years, just remember, it's not yet as bad as it's going to get. In fact, in the future, these will be thought of as "the Good Old Days".

  • ...AND LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL....

    [Read the article: Inside the CIA's notorious "black sites"]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    We desperately need to replace every contemptable Representative who votes for continued funding of these Illegal Wars and Occupations, and who refuse, even in the face of mounds of evidence, to Impeach this Criminal President and Vice President. They are Traitors, War Criminals, Mass Murderers, and War Profiteers, unapoligetically in pursuit of World Domination and Theft of Oil Reserves, in cahoots with large multinationals and Criminal Elements inside the Israeli Government. They share a common interest of eliminating the "Arab Problem" once and for all. A "Final Solution", I think the Nazis called it, when they referred to eliminating all Jews from the face of the earth. And now we find some of these same people, attempting to do to others what they've decried and vowed the World to "Never Forget".

    Just today, the Israeli Security Minister called the CIA report nothing but lies, when describing recent revolations that Iran had stopped it's pursuit of Nuke WMD some time ago.

    This has angered the Bush/Cheney Crime Cartel also, who had to stop the countdown on their scheduled launch of "Operation Kill All the Iranians and Steal Their Oil, Too". (Little self appointed Potentates get testy when their plans for Mass Murder and Mayhem are put off due to reports like these.)

    I look for some covert operatives to be outed and their families murdered very shortly now........

    After all, it wouldn't due if Exxon Mobil showed up to start pumping crude and found the owners still in residence.

  • "NATIONAL (skewed) POLLS"

    [Read the article: Paul-mentum]
    [Read more letters about this article: Here]

    Anyone that believes Ron Paul has only 4% of the vote, while raising this kind of money and having gained more military supporters than all other candidates combined, should just tune into Fox Noise and let their mind turn completely to mush.

    Ron Paul is an oasis in a desert of sleezeballs. Just listening to his calm, honest, totally normal human reasoning on any issue, in comparison to these other smarmy snake oil salesmen, is shocking to those not prepared for it.

    Yes, I was a life long Democrat, and yes, I've re-registered as a Republican so I can vote in the closed primary race.

    I don't recognize those calling themselves Democrats anymore. They seem to blend right into the Criminal Neocons that have brought our Nation to Fascist Dictatorship. They whine slightly, before giving into any demand the Little Decider has planned that day, but besides that small difference, they continue to fund an Illegal War and Occupation for profit, for a reason unknown to Democratic voters everywhere.

    When Ron Paul is President, and after the next two election cycles, in which ALL incumbents are removed from office,

    our Nation will right itself, remove years of corrupt and unconstitutional "improvements", and open the archives to air all the criminality that has been hidden from our eyes.

    I hope Bush and Cheney are securely isolated in non-extradition Nations at that time. They can live out their lives as wanted War Criminals, and history will tell of the days of Treason and War Profiteering that nearly toppled our Republic.
