'Citizens United' Fight: Constitutional Amendment Against Corporate Cash Introduced By House Dems Hayley Miller hayley.miller@huffingtonpost.com WASHINGTON -- House Democrats opened another front in the battle to ban the flood of unregulated cash in politics, proposing their own version of a constitutional amendment aimed at reversing the controversial Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission decision on Monday. Introduced by Rep. Betty Sutton (D-Ohio), the proposed legislation follows the Nov. 1 introduction of a similar amendment by Senate Democrats. "Because of the impact of Citizens United, people are questioning whether government serves corporate interests or ...

This coming Tuesday, November 22, will be the 48th anniversary of the murder of President Kennedy. I hope that a lot will be said and written about it. And to the Occupy folks in Dallas, I really think they should move their occupation over to Dealey Plaza. Occupy Dealey Plaza because what happened in Dealey Plaza in 1963 has more to do with all that is wrong in America today than anything that ever happened on Wall Street. I have been a student of the JFK assassination for a long time, and I have read a lot of books about it, most recently JFK: Analysis of a Shooting by Orlando Martin, who looked at it from his perspective as an expert on ballistics and firearms. Another was Head Shot: ...

Occupy movement's future unclear after NYC sweep NEW YORK (AP) — Hundreds of police officers in riot gear raided the Occupy Wall Street encampment in New York City in the pre-dawn darkness Tuesday, evicted hundreds of protesters and then demolished the tent city, leaving the future of the demonstration in limbo. The police action began around 1 a.m. and lasted several hours as officers with batons and plastic shields pushed the protesters from their base at Zuccotti Park. Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said about 200 people were arrested, including dozens who tried to resist the eviction by linking arms in a tight circle at the center of the park. A member of the City Council was ...

Occupy America for Change - by Stephen Lendman Good ideas spread fast. This one's long overdue. Real grievances launched it. They include out-of-control corporate power, complicit politicians, systemic corruption, predatory finance capital, capitalism itself, frustration turned to rage and activism, growing poverty, depravation, unemployment, imperial wars, environmental destruction, unprecedented inequality, rigged elections, and a nation no longer fit to live in for most in it. There's no turning back now. A sign in New York's Liberty Plaza read, "The Beginning Is Near!" Struggling for change just began. Expect years before it ends. This fight's the mother of ...

China mocks U.S. political model

HONG KONG — Chinese political and business leaders are increasingly triumphant after two decades of rapid economic growth that lifted unprecedented millions of people out of poverty and turned the nation into an economic superpower, saying their success proves its political and economic system is superior to the Western model. In extensive talks with a series of Chinese leaders, an oft-cited point of criticism is the gridlock and “dysfunction” they see in Washington. They say fawning by U.S. political leaders seeking re-election has created an “entitlement culture” where the public has grown dependent on government largesse. Now, with the United States facing ...

America v. Paul Bergrin in Court - by Stephen Lendman Lawlessness and injustice define America. Democratic values are absent. So is respect for human and civil rights. Challenging the system invites trouble. Unjust prosecutions often follow. Bergrin understands. His ordeal stemmed from doing his job. A once formidable advocate and prosecutor, he's now defending himself in the trial of his life. His freedom hangs in the balance. He represented US soldiers accused of killing four Iraqis near Samarra during Operation Iron Triangle in May 2006. The case made international headlines when evidence showed Col. Michael Steele gave orders to "kill all military age males." It was ...

Internet Freedom Threatened - by Stephen Lendman Candidate Obama promised to "(s)upport the principle of network neutrality to preserve the benefits of open competition on the Internet." As president, his FCC and congressional extremists threaten it. On May 12, Senator Amy Klobuchar (D. MN) introduced "S. 978: A bill to amend the criminal penalty provision for criminal infringement of a copyright, and for other purposes." Referred to the Judiciary Committee, June 22 hearings were held. So far, no further action was taken. If enacted, loosely defined unlicensed online streaming becomes illegal, punishable by up to five years in prison. On May 12, Senator Patrick Leahy ...

Electoral College under attack

Electoral College under attack Joseph Farah By almost 2-to-1, 62 percent vs. 35 percent, Americans think the president of the United States should be elected on the basis of the national popular vote rather than by winning in the Electoral College. Democrats continue to be more favorable than Republicans to what would be a major constitutional change. I have to admit, on first glance, the Electoral College system seems like a wacky idea. You mean I'm not really voting for the president? I'm voting for "electors" who will choose a president? You mean the guy who gets the most votes doesn't necessarily win? Because in most cases the winner of the popular vote has ...
HR 1505: Giant Land Grab For The Police State

HR 1505: Giant Land Grab For The Police State Montana Republican Congressman Denny Rehberg lent his support for ceding more power and authority to the federal government’s emerging police state by supporting HR 1505, the “National Security and Federal Lands Protection Act.” This monstrous bill empowers the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to confiscate to itself tens of thousands of acres of land across the US northern border. This is for “national security” reasons, of course. Gag! My friend, Dr. Ed Berry, has written a very astute summary and analysis of HR 1505 on his web site, PolyMontana.com. I am going to be borrowing heavily from his research in this ...

Response to the Oakland Police from an anonymous commenter: Let me make it crystal clear. The people and vets are absolutely livid because your actions were not the actions of law abiding civilian law enforcement. Your people acted like ruthless mercenaries playing Rainbow 6 on civilians with less-than-lethal rounds at a standoff distance that you know damn well is easily deadly. Your tactics were dangerous, and completely against any recommended use of those non-lethals you were deploying. If CS gas was absolutely necessary, you had no business delivering it in 40mm launchers, it should have been under-hand thrown, and kicked down the line... then flash bangs! What the f**k!! Seriously?! ...

Occupy America and Friendly Fascism: Life in the Corporate Police StateBy John W. Whitehead 10/31/2011 "Law is no longer what it was intended to be - a set of rules equally binding everyone to ensure that outcome inequalities are at least legitimate - and instead has become the opposite: a tool used by the politically and financially powerful to entrench their own power and control the society. That's how and why the law now destroys equality and protects the powerful.What we see with the protests demonstrates exactly how that works. The police force—the instrument of law enforcement—is being used to protect powerful criminals who have suffered no consequences for their ...

With congressional Democrats, he exceeded Bush's harshness, lawlessness, belligerency, and public trust betrayal. He violating every major domestic and foreign issue promise made. As a result, he's been complicit in: • looting the nation's wealth, wrecking the economy, and consigning growing millions to impoverishment without jobs, homes, savings, social services, or futures; • giving Wall Street crooks greater money power, disguised as financial reform; • waging multiple imperial wars and occupations, spending more on militarism ...

I am constantly asking myself how long will patriotic Americans allow these type of filth to walk among us? When will we stand up and do something about their slander against this great nation?

Those people need to be hurt and hurt badly and so do they type of animals you describe that post on this site. As a police officer, I would encourage you to target these type of people when you are on patrol and I don't mean just the commie scum but also the Timothy McVeigh types as well. You can tell who they are by the ...
Patriot Act’s war on free speech

Patriot Act’s war on free speech Sometime in 2012, I will begin the ninth year of my life under an FBI gag order, which began when I received what is known as a national security letter at the small Internet service provider I owned. On that day in 2004 (the exact date is redacted from court papers, so I can’t reveal it), an FBI agent came to my office and handed me a letter. It demanded that I turn over information about one of my clients and forbade me from telling “any person” that the government had approached me. National security letters are issued by the FBI, not a judge, to obtain phone, computer and banking information. Instead of complying, I spoke with a ...
