Stopping the government's property grab Proposition 90 would make the state think twice before seizing land or curbing property owners' rights. By Roger Pilon ROGER PILON is vice president for legal affairs at the Cato Institute and director of Cato's Center for Constitutional Studies. October 30, 2006 NEXT MONTH, in 12 states, including California, voters will get a rare chance to talk back to the Supreme Court. Those are the states with measures on their ballots to protect property rights, sparked by the court's 2005 Kelo decision, which lets government condemn a person's property and give it to someone else who can make "better use" of it. In an instant, Americans across ...

Lauren Canario Arrest http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gaITPIRHJ3c NEW LONDON, Conn, Oct. 23, 2006 - After serving 31 days in prison, Free State Project member Lauren Canario of New London was ordered at yesterday's hearing to be held indefinitely pending a future trial. Canario was arrested on Sept. 22 for refusing to leave one of the properties seized in the controversial Kelo vs. New London decision, in which the Supreme Court ruled that government can take homes and give the land to private corporations. Anti-eminent-domain protestors held "Free Lauren Canario" signs at the city jail after she was arrested for sitting down in an attempt to prevent the boarding up of Fort ...

symbolism of controlJohn Fraim 'What information consumes is rather obvious: it consumes the attention of its recipients. Hence a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention, and a need to allocate that attention efficiently among the overabundance of information sources that might consume it.' Herbert A. Simon. Nobel Laureate Economist 'Images chosen and constructed by someone else have everywhere become the individual’s principal connection to the world he formerly observed for himself.' Guy Debord.

RIGHT TO SELF-DEFENSE WINS STATES EMPOWER ‘CASTLE DOCTRINE’ SO HOMEOWNERS CAN PROTECT FAMILIES By Mark Anderson October 30, 2006 | American Free Press Mich. Gov. Jennifer Granholm supports “castle.” Around 15 states have passed or are strongly considering codifying “the castle doctrine” into law. Based on English common law, this doctrine establishes that intruders breaking into homes, businesses or automobiles would be barred from filing lawsuits against property owners who act in self defense to protect themselves, their property and their loved ones. Many states are also crafting such a law to also protect property owners from lawsuits filed by ...

The Last Trench Source: Essays by Louis Beam Author: Louis Beam The Last Trench As they walked through the bodies strewn throughout the overran trenches, one officer could not help but comment on the composition of the dead laying everywhere: "Old men with silver locks lay dead, side by side with mere boys of thirteen or fourteen. It almost makes one sorry to have to fight against people who show such devotion for their homes and their country." Silver haired men lay across the bodies of thirteen-year-old children piled in clumps or scattered individually where a last desperate stand had been made. The blood of both meeting in one final offering to freedom, liberty and homeland. ...

Embracing the Subtle Upside of Terror By Garrison Keillor The Chicago Tribune Wednesday 25 October 2006 We are engaged in a struggle between freedom and the forces of terror, my little macacas, and mostly I side with freedom, such as the freedom to look at big shots and stick out your tongue and blow, but of course terror has its place too. The dude strolling down our street at night does not break into our house to see what's available because he is terrified that if he's nabbed, his girlfriend Janine will run off to Philly with her ex-boyfriend Eddie who's been hanging around. She's the best thing in Benny's life right now. So he walks on by and leaves our stereo be. The terror of ...
The "cabal" expects America to vote for their continued predatory way of life. Send them a message that it will no longer be "business as usual."

October 27/28/29, 2006 -- Legitimate human and civil rights versus a secreted GOP homo-erotic cabal is the real social issue in this election. The GOP is hyping the New Jersey Supreme Court civil union ruling and anti-gay marriage initiatives in a number of states as reasons to boast about their fanciful chances of retaining control of the Congress. Nothing could be further from the truth. This election is about constant GOP lying and hypocrisy on the issues of the rights afforded to U.S. citizens regardless of sexual orientation. According to senior Democratic sources in the House of Representatives, the Pagegate scandal is merely the "tip of the iceberg" of the predatory nature ...

We welcome you to Democracy Now! ROBERT PARRY: Thanks, Amy. AMY GOODMAN: Can you talk about Nicaragua now, 20 years later.

On the far-away island of Sala-ma-Sond, Yertle the Turtle was king of the pond. A nice little pond. It was clean. It was neat. The water was warm. There was plenty to eat. The turtles had everything turtles might need. And they were all happy. Quite happy indeed. They were... untill Yertle, the king of them all, Decided the kingdom he ruled was too small. "I'm ruler", said Yertle, "of all that I see. But I don't see enough. That's the trouble with me. With this stone for a throne, I look down on my pond But I cannot look down on the places beyond. This throne that I sit on is too, too low down. It ought to be higher!" he said with a frown. "If I could ...

'Beginning of the end of America' By Kieth Olbermann And now—our rights and our freedoms in peril—we slowly awake to learn that we have been afraid of the wrong thing. Therefore, tonight have we truly become the inheritors of our American legacy. For, on this first full day that the Military Commissions Act is in force, we now face what our ancestors faced, at other times of exaggerated crisis and melodramatic fear-mongering: A government more dangerous to our liberty, than is the enemy it claims to protect us from. We have been here before—and we have been here before led here—by men better and wiser and nobler than George W. Bush. We have been here when President ...

June 6, 2012 by Becky Akers by Becky Akers DIGG THIS She should have kept her eyes on the floor like everyone else, not glanced around as though she were free. But she’d looked up to pass the time, and her gaze fell on a screener furtively slipping something into a pocket. Then the woman dropped a wallet into the plastic tray for its trip through the scanning machine. She was short and beefy, with badly dyed blonde hair and more make-up than any three girls should wear – the sort of screener Erin always prayed to avoid. Her nose wrinkled in disgust. It was then that the screener’s eyes fastened on her. The guilt reddening the woman’s face matched the revulsion on ...

STATEMENT BY THE PRESIDENT ON THE PASSAGE OF THE ASSAULT WEAPONS BAN The Rose Garden 5:40 P.M. EDT THE PRESIDENT: This afternoon, the House of Representatives rose to the occasion and stood up for the national interest. Two hundred and sixteen members stood up for our police, our children, and for safety on our streets. They stood up against the madness that we have come to see when criminals and terrorists have legal access to assault weapons, and then find themselves better armed than police, putting more and more people in increasing danger of their lives. The 19 assault weapons banned by this proposal are deadly, dangerous weapons. They were designed for one purpose only: to kill ...

As a result, she suffers from a degenerative illness that causes constant deep-muscle and neurological pain, and she uses medical marijuana to alleviate her symptoms. ...

Last week, the White House's deputy drug czar warned South Dakota voters, "Do not fall for the con" of medical marijuana.

THE PHILOSOPHER AND OFFICER FRIENDLY Note: The following is a piece which I wrote at the request of revisionist icon Bradley Smith for his forthcoming book, OUR STORIES: The Human Face of Holocaust Revisionism. I was a born philospher, or if not quite born, then at least made at a very early age. I can remember the very day that it happened -- it was in nursery school, and we had a visit from Officer Friendly to tell us Very Important Things like the policeman is your friend, and how to cross the street without being flattened by a ten-ton truck. It was the matter of the truck that let me know I was a philosopher. What happened was that, when Officer Friendly announced his Grand Solution, ...

When in the course of the history of this Republic, survivor of Rebellion, of the Great Depression, and of many wars, an Executive violates its contract with its citizens to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America, and fails to so uphold and defend its basic principles, putting the nation itself in jeopardy, and subverting its very purposes, then the citizens must exercise their right to reject such governance not only by the power of the vote but by ...

Exactly once in my life have I felt like I was two inches tall. It was about 15 years ago, when I was in a secretary's office. While she was out of the room I looked around and saw, on her shelf, two pictures with a teen-age girl in each one. I knew them, but couldn't remember anything about them. Even stranger, they appeared to be twins. How could I completely forget two twin girls? When the secretary returned, I commented, "I know those girls from someplace, but I can't remember where." To this she replied, "You've seen those pictures in the newspaper. Those are my daughters, the ones who were killed on the old Chain of Rocks bridge." "Oh," I said. Then, ...

The State Will Never Win the Drug War
Post Date: 2006-10-22 09:32:19 by YertleTurtle

There are several reasons why the State will never win the drug war, but one not often discussed is the Arndt-Schultz Law. It is a biological law that states, "Small doses stimulate, medium doses poison, and large doses kill." Probably the best-known examples of this law are vaccines. They are small doses that stimulate the body's immune system to defend against disease. A medium dose of the vaccine would poison, and a large dose would kill. The Arndt-Schultz Law is also the reason why homeopathy works: a very small dose (in homeopathy's case, vanishingly small) stimulates the body to heal itself. As for illegal drugs, coca leaves would be considered a small dose, cocaine a ...

Bill Maher Smacks Around Some NeoCons By: SilentPatriot on Saturday, October 21st, 2006 at 4:30 PM - PDT Bill Maher was on fire last night with New Rules. He closed the show with a four minute diatribe aimed at the neocons at PNAC and the Heritage Foundation for being disastrously wrong on every foreign policy prediction they've made regarding Iraq and the GWOT. Video-WMP Video-QT Maher: And finally, new rule in two parts: (A) You can't call yourself a think tank if all you're ideas are stupid; and (B) If you're someone from one of these think tanks that dreamed up the Iraq War and who predicted that we'd be greeted as liberators, and that we wouldn't need a lot of troops, and that Iraqi ...

Lynne Stewart's Crime of Courage, Honor and Resisting Tyranny - by Stephen Lendman Years from now, Lynne F. Stewart's name will be spoken of with even greater reverence than it is today. On October 17, this courageous and redoubtable soft-spoken civil rights defense lawyer was vindicated in the same Foley Square New York federal courtroom where Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were unjustly framed, convicted and sentenced to death in April, 1951 in an act of state-sponsored vengeance for the crime of conspiracy to violate the Espionage Act. It was done in that earlier age of hysteria in the name of national security against an invented threat of that era that didn't exist. On October 17, Lynne ...
