Neocon Gingrich Calls for Trashing the First Amendment, Few Notice or Seem to Care Tuesday November 28th 2006, 8:16 pm It really is quite amazing. Newt Gingrich slanders the Constitution, arrogantly suggest the First Amendment be sent to the deep freeze, and few complain, few even comment, except bloggers at Huffington, a bastion of so-called liberalism. “Speaking in Manchester last night, Gingrich said the country may need a different set of rules to reduce terrorists’ ability to use the Internet and free speech to recruit and get out their message,” the Boston Globe reported. If we didn’t live in Bushzarro times, the response would be immediate and scorching, and ...

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A federal judge struck down President Bush's authority to designate groups as terrorists, saying his post-Sept. 11 executive order was unconstitutionally vague, according to a ruling released Tuesday. The Humanitarian Law Project had challenged Bush's order, which blocked all the assets of groups or individuals he named as "specially designated global terrorists" after the 2001 terrorist attacks. "This law gave the president unfettered authority to create blacklists," said David Cole, a lawyer for the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Constitutional Rights that represented the group. "It was reminiscent of the McCarthy era." The ...
BILL OF RIGHTS DOWNSIZED, BY A HALF

White House spokesperson Tony Snow announced today that the Federal Government has downsized the first ten amendments, often called "The Bill Of Rights." (TBOR) "The downsizing will be reflected in the latest printed editions of the Constitution and TBOR that are issued by the Government Printing Office," according to Mr. Snow. Henceforth, the official citation of each amendment will be reduced by only a half, so that the Eighth Amendment, for instance, which happens to protect us against cruel and unusual punishments, will henceforth be known as Amendment 7.5, while the Fourth Amendment, which protects us against illegal searches and seizures, such as wiretapping, ...

May God Richly Bless Those Who Don’t Forget and Never Give Up Dear Friends: I wanted to remind everyone of the website http://triallogs.blogspot.com/ where many dedicated Americans monitor the trials and trial aftermaths of people who have been attacked by the IRS and DOJ with criminal prosecutions. I have included below an excerpt on the treatment Irwin Schiff has received, which is even worse than the railroading he received at his trial. If anyone knows someone in the Bureau of Prisons or in Congress who can commence an investigation into the torture of Irwin Schiff, please seek them out and ask them to intervene. For all of us, let us pray to the Supreme “Intervener” ...

November 28, 2006 MANCHESTER, N.H. --Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich used a New Hampshire event dedicated to freedom of speech to say the United States will have to re-examine that constitutional right as it fights terrorism. Speaking in Manchester last night, Gingrich said the country may need a different set of rules to reduce terrorists' ability to use the Internet and free speech to recruit and get out their message. The former speaker also said he won't decide whether to run for president until September 2007. He spoke at the annual Nackey S. Loeb First Amendment award dinner.

Experts from London's Metropolitan Police's Homicide Prevention Unit are creating psychological profiles of likely offenders which will enable them to predict future patterns of behaviour. Statements from former partners, mental health workers and any previous complaints are used to compile the profiles which would identify those most likely to commit serious violent crimes. The team is currently focussing on individuals who could turn from domestic violence to murder, based on data that shows that about 25 percent of all murders are related to domestic violence, the newspaper said. "My vision is that we know across London who the top 100 people are," said Laura ...

High Court Won't Review Smoke Shop Raid

(11-27) 07:38 PST WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court on Monday declined to review whether Rhode Island authorities can enforce state law on an Indian reservation, a dispute triggered by a police raid on a tribal smoke shop. Cigarettes sold for less at the shop on the Narragansett Indian Tribe reservation because the tribe didn't pay for state-mandated tax stamps and it didn't collect a sales tax from customers who purchased cigarettes. The tribe argued that it is immune from state authority because it is recognized by the federal government. State police, however, obtained a search warrant from a Rhode Island court and raided the store in July 2003, leading to a violent ...

Frederick Douglass, the renowned abolitionist, began life as a slave on Maryland's Eastern Shore. When his owner had trouble with the young, unruly slave, Douglass was sent to Edward Covey, a notorious "slave breaker." Covey's plantation, where physical and psychological torture were standard, was called Mount Misery. Douglass eventually fought back, escaped to the North and went on to change the world. Today Mount Misery is owned by Donald Rumsfeld, the outgoing secretary of defense. It is ironic that this notorious plantation run by a practiced torturer would now be owned by Rumsfeld, himself accused as the man principally responsible for the U.S. military's program ...

POLICE and councils are considering monitoring conversations in the street using high-powered microphones attached to CCTV cameras, write Steven Swinford and Nicola Smith. The microphones can detect conversations 100 yards away and record aggressive exchanges before they become violent. The devices are used at 300 sites in Holland and police, councils and transport officials in London have shown an interest in installing them before the 2012 Olympics. The interest in the equipment comes amid growing concern that Britain is becoming a “surveillance society”. It was recently highlighted that there are more than 4.2m CCTV cameras, with the average person being filmed more than 300 ...

Some of the sages and philosophers of years ago knew the likes of George W. Bush and many that we see in our government."A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious." ~Aristotle (384-322 BC) Greek philosopher; Source: Politics, 343 B.C.Behind the cloak of piety many evil things have been done throughout history. Even when the killing starts and one of the most basic orders within the Ten Commandments is violated, "thou shalt not kill", they claim God is on their side.

WASHINGTON -- The CIA has scrapped its ho-hum test that steered job applicants toward mysterious careers and devised one that's cloaked in jest. Invisibility or ESP? Jet pack or amphibious sports car? Walk the Great Wall of China or sip Champagne at a New York gala? The results from the CIA's personality quiz are just a few clicks away, diagnosing test takers as daring thrill-seekers, thoughtful observers, curious adventurers, innovative pioneers or impressive masterminds. The CIA wants to hire them all. The agency's online personality test is the equivalent of a help-wanted sign, posted on the closest thing the agency has to a front door - its Web site.

Rumsfeld okayed abuses says former U.S. general Sat Nov 25, 2006 11:45am ET MADRID (Reuters) - Outgoing Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld authorized the mistreatment of detainees at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, the prison's former U.S. commander said in an interview on Saturday. Former U.S. Army Brigadier General Janis Karpinski told Spain's El Pais newspaper she had seen a letter apparently signed by Rumsfeld which allowed civilian contractors to use techniques such as sleep deprivation during interrogation. Karpinski, who ran the prison until early 2004, said she saw a memorandum signed by Rumsfeld detailing the use of harsh interrogation methods. "The handwritten ...

Bush's Lone Victory By PAUL CRAIG ROBERTS George Orwell warned us, but what American would have expected that in the opening years of the 21st century the United States would become a country in which lies and deception by the President and Vice President were the basis for a foreign policy of war and aggression, and in which indefinite detention without charges, torture, and spying on citizens without warrants have displaced the Bill of Rights and the US Constitution? If anyone had predicted that the election of George W. Bush to the presidency would result in an American police state and illegal wars of aggression, he would have been dismissed as a lunatic.

Pentagon admitted the mistake before that they went too far, but they also insists the problem has been fixed. Now Senator Leahy wants a clear answer from Pentagon, as well as the Congress.

Pentagon has been keeping tabs on groups perceived as security threat Updated: 6:30 p.m. ET Nov 22, 2006 A year ago, an NBC News investigation revealed the existence of a secret Pentagon database that included information on antiwar protests and American peace activists. Now, newly disclosed documents reveal new details on who was targeted and which other government agencies may have helped monitor Americans. At universities across the country, an antiwar group called Veterans for Peace has staged protests by setting up crosses for soldiers killed in Iraq. In New Mexico last year, the local paper described the event as a display of honor. But a previously secret Pentagon intelligence ...
