Helen Thomas | The Democrats Who Enable Bush

There's more to this story for those willing to follow the paper trail leading from the military/industrial complex to the pocket linings of several democrats as well as republicans. Why else would this democratic majority deny the constitutional process of impeachment against this criminal administration. Bush and Cheney aren't they only ones profiting off of Haliburton and their ilk.

Great article, Ms. Thomas

Chicago cops on desk duty after video - Crime & Punishment - MSNBC.com

Has the time come for municipalities to ELECT those we entrust to SERVE and PROTECT us? Across the nation PDs seem to be locked in a battle of one-upsmanship to see who can terrorize the most citizens with citizen (taxpayer) money: Minneapolis, Chicago, New York, St. Louis, ad infinitum. The ranks of police across the nation are filled not so much with benevolent defenders of justice but often racist/violent individuals who have belatedly recognized that the badge literally shields their hatred of certain individuals and groups from accountability. Community policing can best be assured when we elect those who have license to kill instead of allowing those with violent mentalities to treat our cities and the people in them with criminal disregard.

Accounts Vary on U.S. Attack That Killed 25 Iraqis - New York Times


Despite What President Arias Might Want You to Believe: Why Costa Rica Might Not Need CAFTA After All, and Why It May Be a Bad Deal for the Average Co

"Collective suicide."

"It was what Costa Rica President Oscar Arias has publicly predicted for his country if its good citizens don't ratify the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) , which will be put to referendum this Sunday. "Let's not close the door. Let's not cut our wings. Lets not deny our young people this challenge, " was the impassioned, almost moralistic appeal that Costa Rican economist Alvaro Cedeno made in the country's national newspaper La Nacion. This hortatory, if not establishmentarian advice on the part of Arias and the Costa Rican academic, is reminiscent of President Clinton's appeal to Democratic legislators in 1994 when he urged them to vote for NAFTA. Just as the pro-free trade bloc bought NAFTA by throwing millions of dollars to promote the enactment of it, a comparable fortune has been spent in Costa Rica to guarantee that no October surprises take place on Sunday."

IRR: How liberals lost their anti-racism

"Anthony writes that, since the 1970s, liberalism has been corrupted by white guilt which leads liberals to think that everything will be OK as long as they don't interfere in other people's lives, especially the lives of other ethnic groups. But this is fantasy: in practice, white liberals have not usually shied away from using the power of the state to intervene in the lives of non-whites, either in Britain or in the neo-colonialism of the 'war on terror'".

Blacklogic is boycotting the 2008 elections and all campaigns because elections in this country are now a sham, two have been stolen, hence there's no leg for democracy to stand on in this country. Moreover, all the candidates are lackeys for the Council on Foreign Relations/Trilateral Commisson/Military/Industrial Complex. Nonetheless, the elimination of nuclear weapons being proposed by a (longshot) presidential candidate is news worth passing on at least.

Hypocrisy rules the West

As in WE don't commit genocide, we liberate.

Books: America's Terror War on America - Newsweek Entertainment - MSNBC.com

Many of these new books are finally starting to ask questions the authors should have asked decades ago during the Reagan Adm.

With two stolen elections under our fascist belt, there is no doubt the USA has phased-out democracy's most important trait -- free elections.

But, these attacks on the Constitution, and our blind acceptance of them, shows you how tolerant all Americans -- conservative and so-called liberal -- are of fascist principles as long as it keeps white privilege going a little while longer. That is the tacit reason the Pelosis and Reids have aided and abetted this criminal administration -- they too are benefactors of the regime.

Neurophilosophy : The archives of the American Eugenics Movement

"...by 1941, no less than 33 states endorsed policies for sterilizing "defective" members of society, such as criminals, the "feeble-minded", epileptics, the mentally ill and, off course, Blacks (and non-whites in general)."

Dig the part about the "99.9 percent" of officers who allegedly aren't corrupt.

Without a doubt, the police, military, mercenary outfits like Blackwater USA and other careers of this type are as much, if not more, of a haven and finishing school for racist and violent people with an axe to grind against others in society, whether Blacks, Latinos, GLBT, and Natives and especially now Arab descent persons.

It will be too late when the nation wakes up to this fact: There are no checks in place to prevent violent racists from careers in criminal justice because criminal justice as practiced in the USA is a function of a violent and racist agenda in the first place.

CUAPB Statement on Critical Mass Incident

"CUAPB CONDEMNS ATTACK BY MPD ON CYCLISTS; POLICE ACTIONS WILL NOT DETER FREE SPEECH Editor's Note: CUAPB has been heavily involved in securing the legal rights of the people brutalized and/or arrested during last night's Critical Mass bicycle ride. What follows is a statement we released to the media earlier today.

In the aftermath of this attack, we urge people to get to the next meeting of the Minneapolis city council's so-called 'free speech' working group, which will be held on September 12 at 11:00 a.m. in room 333 of city hall.

At this point, most of the arrestees have been released on bail and will have their first appearance in court on October 1, 2007. We will keep you posted on the progress of legal defense efforts for the Critical Mass 19. Communities United Against Police Brutality strongly condemns the violent attack by Minneapolis police on bicyclists riding as part of last night's Critical Mass.

For simply enjoying the beautiful weather by riding their bicycles legally down the street, these riders were subjected to beatings, false arrests, clouds of noxious chemical irritant, destruction of their property and wholesale violations of their rights. As a result of this unprovoked attack, nineteen were arrested, including a number of bystanders. Some individuals were tasered while handcuffed. Eight people were beat"

MPD going after cyclist/protestors

The Minneapolis Police Force has been off the rails for a long, long time, becoming more and more reliant on brutality and oppression of our Constitutionally guaranteed right to freedoms of speech and assembly. The new police chief has wasted little time in demoting several qualified officers of color and women from positions as precinct commanders and inspectors (Lt. Lee Edwards, 4th Pct, Valerie Wurster, 3rd, to name two.) Chief Tim Dolan now has the all white boys club we weren't too long removed from.

Now they are going after activists gearing up to protest the 2008 Republican National Convention here in the Twin Cites, and the lockdown has already begun, because, while activists are prepping and honing their rights, law enforcement agencies and the weak-kneed mayors (Rybak) and city councils that let them violate our rights with impunity are honing their draconian 'talents' as well.

This following is a statement from Communities United Against Police Brutality issued Sept. 1 -- I was Missou for the weekend and this was my first time hearing about what happened to the riders of the monthly Critical Mass ride:

Hey "Betray Us"!
