Cosby's Message - Look In The Mirror

Bill Cosby's popularity in the African American community hasn't been the same since he started speaking his mind about it. He has told parents to start parenting. Told the community it was complicit in the misogyny, vulgarity, violence and racism in black culture. Many take offense. Why blame a people still struggling with racism, inequality, poverty and crime? Their complaints can't be dismissed. But neither should Cosby. Everyone - black, white, whatever - needs to hear what he's saying - and act. Monday, Cosby joined Men United for a Better Philadelphia on an 11-block antiviolence march through West Philadelphia. Then came a frightening FBI study in which, among U.S. ...

Washington, D.C., June 8, 2007: “ I have two subjects of general interest to discuss today. The first concerns the flap over the Turkish threats to invade northern Iraq in the wake of Kurdish terrorists cross-border murderous activities inside Turkey and the second deals with a very serious problem with rising sea levels and genuine economic chaos for our east and gulf coasts. First, let’s look at what could very well become a major political disaster. To reduce the problem to basics, the Kurds occupy territory in northern Iraq. There is considerable oil in northern Iraq. The Kurds hate the Shiites and Sunnis who occupy the lower part of Iraq and Saddam attacked them, gassing ...
The Strategy of Disintegration:

The Strategy of Disintegration: False flags, dirty tricks and the dismemberment of Iraq The erosion of a target country’s integrity and viability has always been a conscious goal of the Western colonial project. Creating instability and dissatisfaction with existing reality was a necessary prerequisite to “tame” and then integrate native peoples into the dominant hierarchical model. Today, of course, we are told that colonialism is a thing of the past. The leading nations of the international community no longer seek to enslave their less fortunate neighbours, but rather pursue policies of world benefaction - within the limits imposed by healthy competition, of course. ...
Iraq On The Brink (Turkey Iraq War?)

by Rowan Wolf Page 1 of 1 page(s) http://www.opednews.com Tell A Friend Iraq is teetering on the edge, but this one is not into civil war. Iraq could find itself at war with Turkey. It is stunning to imagine that a nation in name only; with (reportedly) fewer than 10,000 soldiers "combat capable;" living under a foreign occupation and an increasingly bloody struggle for power; could find itself having to defend its "sovereignty" against Turkey. The issue is the increasingly open conflict between Iraqi Kurds and Turkey. Turkey has a long history of conflict with the Kurds, and has been adamant about not allowing a Kurdish state on their border... and that Kurdish ...

In reading an excellent book, Satanic Purses: Money, Myth and Misinformation, by R.T. Naylor, I suddenly realized why Adolf Hitler was so popular during the first years of his administration. The funny thing is that the book is not about Hitler or Germany, but about the U.S. and the bogus war on terror. It is an outstanding book, carefully researched and footnoted, and written in a reasonable manner, though with delicious dollops of sarcasm. It's the carefully detailed accounts of injustices committed by the U.S. government against American Muslims that gave me the insight about Hitler. In the early days of the Third Reich, if you weren't a criminal, a communist or a Jew, you ...

Washington, D.C., June 2, 2007: “It is one thing to bluff the Iranians and spin our wheels issuing regular idle threats about sanctions, invasion, bombings and so on but quite another to mess with Putin or the Turks. Cheney, who runs Bush like a hand-puppet, loathes Vladimir Putin with a real passion. Why? Firstly, Cheney is mired in the long-dead Cold War and is incapable of realizing that Russia is no longer a Communist empire. He is also enraged that Putin stopped the oligarchs from privatizing the Russian oil and gas resources and turning control of them over to American and British interests. Cheney is an oil man (former president of Halliburton) and Putin’s forced return ...

Today, after being in prison for 3 days, and not real prison, the county lock up, Paris Hilton was released. Yes, that's right folks, the stupid whore got released. Here's the deal. The dumb cunt got a DUI, had a revoked license, was sentenced to the lightest sentence she could get, got her own private cell in solitary, had her lawyer and shrink there every fucking day and she got out because her parents have a lot of fucking money. The thing here is folks, that if you, or I, or anyone else who are working for a living were to do something stupid like that, and be sentenced to 30 days in county, we'd still fucking be there, lawyer, or shrink be damned. This proves without a ...

06/07/2007 Rudolph Guiliani, in Tuesday night's Republican candidates debate in New Hampshire your comments on the Iraq War constituted far more than political error. They labeled you as a disgrace unfit to serve in any political office, much less the presidency. In response to a question about the Iraq War you created a world of pathetic fantasy and sought to present this view not only as fact, but also with a tinge of counterfeit patriotism as you heralded George W. Bush's actions as a necessary means to combat world terrorism. After tossing your ceremonial bouquets at your political hero George Bush, you then declared that because of an action you heralded as courageous, ...
Republicans on repeat—except for Ron Paul

Republicans on repeat—except for Ron Paul by LYDIA HOWELL Watching the Republicans debate was much like a flat repetition of Bushspeak—while avoiding Bush's name. But, at least, there was a lot less of the Reagan incantation from the first debate. On most issues, nine of the 10 Republicans seemed redundant to what we've already got now. They agreed on more militarism, continued Bush's tax cuts for the rich and “free market” health care--none of which is working now. Plus, these nine are in love with nukes—nuking Iran, nuclear power in response to global warming and energy independence. VP Dick Cheney's right-hand man, L. Scooter Libby (who just got ...
Three strikes and McCain is a washout

You can stick a fork in John McCain, my friends. The former Navy officer fragged himself last night. Oh sure, every other GOP candidate in Manchester wanted a piece of him on immigration, but he should have seen it coming. Nine-on-one is St. Anselm’s fun. Surely McCain knew he was going to get blistered for supporting the Kennedy-Bush amnesty bill. His unfavorability rating in Arizona is 51 percent. He took a beating on immigration at a town meeting in Gilford earlier in the day. But McCain just can’t help himself. He just keeps stepping into it, spouting nonsense about how the illegals have a “tough path,” and how they “must come into our country legally.” ...

The GREATEST HOAX IN HISTORY was put over on the American people and the world, on JUNE 5, 1967 There is now an accumulating mass of evidence to suggest that the"SIX DAY WAR" was nothing but a 60 Minute BLITZ ! This is a report of the so-called “Six Day War” of an illegally conceived and unlawfully created “State of Israel”, against the Christians and Moslems of the United Arab Republic. In reality, it was a 60-minute blitz carried out by utilizing the military might of the United States, and carried on by traitors to this nation in high governmental positions, Zionists who are loyal only to the “State of Israel”, and who bleed the Christian ...

Fox News: Paris Hilton’s Jail Time ‘Sounds Like Abu Ghraib’ » Paris Hilton headed to the Los Angeles County jail yesterday to begin her 4523-day prison sentence. While there, she will be allowed outside her cell “for an hour each day to shower, watch television in the day room, participate in outdoor recreation or talk on the telephone.” Today on Fox News’s morning show Fox and Friends, the hosts noted that Hilton will not be allowed to speak on her cell phone while in jail. Guest host Greg Kelly then commented, “It sounds like Abu Ghraib. C’mon, that’s not cool.” Watch it: Being without a cell phone is not like Abu Ghraib. From a ...

It just worries the hell out of me." For President Johnson, Korea was the model he privately feared. For President Bush, Korea is the model he has publicly embraced. The White House announced ...

FEE is a libertarian think tank, and as Dr. Paul's best credentials are those identifying him as a true libertarian, meaning a "classical liberal" of the anti-Federalist genre of libertarians that helped found this country, true liberals such as Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry and Samuel Adams, his qualifications to lead US out of the slimy quagmire we now find ourselves in represents a blast of fresh air.

Experts cast doubt on credibility of JFK terror plot by Luis Torres de la Llosa Mon Jun 4, 8:20 PM ET NEW YORK (AFP) - An alleged plot to blow up fuel tanks and pipelines at New York's JFK airport had little chance of success, according to safety experts, who have questioned whether the plot ever posed a real threat. ADVERTISEMENT US authorities said Saturday they had averted an attack that could have resulted in "unfathomable damage, deaths, and destruction," and charged four alleged Islamic radicals with conspiracy to cause an explosion at the airport. But according to the experts, it would have been next to impossible to cause an explosion in the jet fuel tanks and ...
Adolescent Intellectuals

To a small child, the reason he cannot do many things that he would like to do is that his parents won't let him. Many years later, maturity brings an understanding that there are underlying reasons for doing or not doing many things, and that his parents were essentially conduits for those reasons. The truly dangerous period in life is the time when the child has learned the limits of his parents' control, and how to circumvent their control, but has not yet understood or accepted the underlying reasons for doing and not doing things. This adolescent period is one that some people -- intellectuals especially -- never outgrow. The widespread and fervent use of the word ...
Two Threats to Liberty
Post Date: 2007-06-05 02:35:35 by mirage

There are two clear and present dangers to liberty in America. One is known as the left, and the other is known as the right. They are dangerous because they seek to use government to mold society into a form they seek, rather than the form that liberty achieves if society is left on its own. I'm going to assume that the left and the right come to their views sincerely, that their passion for using government is driven by some fear that the absence of government would yield catastrophe. So the burden of my talk today will be to identify and explain the common thread that connects the worldview of the left and the right, and suggest that they are both wrong about the capacity of ...
Civil liberties and war in Mexico - Mexican president Felipe Calderon is instituting crackdowns that make George Bush look like a member of the ACLU.

Like George Bush, Mexico's Felipe Calderon came into office after a bitterly contested election. And he is using the same methods to unite his people behind him. Just as President Bush's war on terror successfully boosted his support during his early years, President Calderon is now declaring war on both crime and terror. Calderon's war promises to be even more destructive for civil liberties. In an attempt to combat narco- violence and discourage subversive activities, he has already ordered unilateral military takeovers of seven states and disarmed local police corps. The military has begun operating random checkpoints throughout the country. He has modified the criminal ...

Think Tank: US Exaggerating Iran Threat For Military Intervention RTTNews | May 29, 2007 The United States is falsely accusing Tehran of supporting Iraqi militias in stoking violence in Iraq as a pretext for a military intervention in the Islamic republic, a leading British think-tank has said in a report. In its report, the British American Security Information Council or Basic has pointed out that there was no hard evidence to link Iran with Iraqi militancy. "Whatever the true nature of Iranian military action in Iraq, few independent analysts believes Tehran is playing a decisive role in the sectarian warfare and insurgency." The report said given the close ties between ...

Sally and Bill can go into Adam's room. The only place not burned or had skin harvested for a graft was on Adam's stomach. The doctors would let them into the burn unit of the ICU only after Bill and Sally had full scrubs on. Sally could put her hand on Adam's stomach and talk to him. Last Thursday/Friday he had another surgery. They found more wound in his right gluteious muscle and had to remove the entire glut. muscle. The surgeons then had to put in a colostomy bag to prevent infections. So now Sally does ...

The loonies of Knoxville It always amazes me when white people put on the victim hat. As in victim of racial oppression. By any measure — health, education, economics, employment — white Americans enjoy a superior standard of living. If that's racial oppression, sign me up. But still, one occasionally hears mewling noises from that subset of my white countrymen who feel put upon by big, bad racial minorities. This is one of those times. And Knoxville, Tenn., has become the capital city of that lunatic fringe. It seems that in January, a young white couple, Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom, were victims of a brutal crime. They were carjacked, kidnapped and raped. ...
Outside The Matrix

This is the first in a series of articles about the "Matrix" in which we live. The concept of a "Matrix" was introduced by the 1999 Sci-Fi motion picture titled THE MATRIX, written and directed by Andy and Larry Wachowski. (Although, Sophia Stewart claims to be the "mother" of THE MATRIX, and is suing the Wachowskies.) Nonetheless, the idea of being enslaved by a manipulated reality field has gained a broader acceptance. About one year ago, I had the opportunity to attend an open-house program put on by private school in Houston, Texas . The featured speaker was John Taylor Gatto, who was formerly New York State and New York City Teacher of The Year. Gatto has ...
