935 Fals Statements

While I believe the vast American public already knew they had been misled by this Bush administration I don’t know if we truly had an idea of how large a spectacle Bush and his yes men really put on.
In addition to being misled by the administration lets not forget to place some of the blame on the press; who sat by and reported their lies with little to no fact checking and almost no critical analyst.

Way to go Bush, way to go Mass Media.

P.S Oh, and yea that same media is informing you currently about the presidential election. I’m sure their being completely unbiased in their coverage, now.

Its great to see the NH GOP live up to true American Values. This shows real integrity on their part.

NH REPUBLICAN PARTY WITHDRAWS AS FOX FORUM PARTNER

CONCORD ? New Hampshire Republican Party Chairman Fergus Cullen releases the following statement regarding Sunday?s Republican forum on FOX:

The first-in-the-nation New Hampshire primary serves a national purpose by giving all candidates an equal opportunity on a level playing field. Only in New Hampshire do lesser known, lesser funded underdogs have a fighting chance to establish themselves as national figures. Consistent with that tradition, we believe all recognized major candidates should have an equal opportunity to participate in pre-primary debates and forums.

This principle applies to tonight?s debates on ABC as well as Sunday?s planned forum on FOX. The New Hampshire Republican Party believes Congressmen Ron Paul and Duncan Hunter should be included in the FOX forum on Sunday evening. Our mutual efforts to resolve this difference have failed.

While we understand that FOX News continues to move forward it is with regret, the New Hampshire Republican Party hereby withdraws as a partner in this forum.

What do Robert Bixby, Stuart Butler, Douglas Elmendorf, and David Walker have in common other than the commonality of sharing no specific political leaning?

Well, they are all experts in their fields and vastly concerned with the direction the US Economy is taking. They joined together nearly two years ago to start spreading the message that if the course does not change big problems lay ahead for the US Economy. With a federal deficit over 8 trillion dollars, the Senates approval in 06 to raise the Federal Debt Limit to 9 Trillion dollars and nothing that could be considered a "decrease" of spending since then, its clear America has some big issues on its plate.

This "Fiscal Wake-Up Tour" as these men have dubbed their very serious lecture tour, has plans to ratchet up their efforts in the coming months. Their hope is that they will be able to help wedge in more economic and fiscal policy concerns into the general publics conscience as well as the upcoming election season.

We all know this guy is listenging, but is anyone else?

Our Public tax dollars (8.5 million to be exact) are spent on a safety survey of our national air transportation system. The results are gathered and a report is written. Next I should be writing that the report is released to the airlines, the public and any other agency that contributes to the safety of our air travel; unfortunately I can’t write that because

NASA REFUSES TO RELEASE THEIR AIR SAFETY SURVEY

The officials state that the information “could” cause a drop in confidence of our air trans system and should not be released. There are so many things wrong with that train of thought I do not even know where to begin. Here are three quick points.

1) My tax dollars went to pay for this report, it should be public knowledge.
2) I should have all existing information made accessible to me so that I may make the best decision for me and my family regarding our flying habits. Withholding information regarding the safety of such a common occurrence is accessory to the deaths caused by lack of such knowledge.
3) By withholding the info from not only passengers but from airlines as well NASA effectively cuts out the very entity that is ultimately responsible for the safety of its customers. If the airlines don’t know about a problem they CAN NOT FIX IT!

There are a few prominent black leaders that are often out spoken and on the front lines of many of today’s issues. One that I’ve begun to read and listen to a bit and am gaining a real respect for is Mr. Roland S. Martin.

His opinions, while not always shared by me, originate from what appears to be an articulate well educated and diverse experience base. I see Mr. Martin as an upcoming leader not only for the Black community but for educated moderate people in general. His latest contribution to CNN is about the upcoming Presidential election. I had recently asked my grandparents if they had been watching the debates and their response was “oh that’s a waste of time its way to far out and they all say the same stuff” however they are ALL ABOUT the show survivor.

When will people wake up and care? More accurately…. when will people care enough to wake up?

Read why Roland S. Martin goes stir crazy over a research that suggest the average person “spends five minutes a month — total — on the presidential race”.

WOW! I didn’t realize as a “Christian” (that is still figuring out his beliefs) that I am suppose to want to “perfect” Jews or any other religions for that matter! That’s AMAZING! WOW have I been in the dark on that one. While we are at it why don’t we make all Hindus and Buddhist and Muslims Christian too!!! I mean wouldn’t it just be great if we were all the same? Lets all wear the same shirts too… and drink cool aid…. and not have any tolerance for other faiths…

I don’t think it becomes more arrogant their Mrs. Coulters statements… though I suppose most every religion would prefer if everyone just belong to one big old fat bloated group with no differences in opinion or beliefs…

Justices… how in earth could you refuse to HEAR the case of a German Citizen who was wrongly “retained” and tortured by the CIA for FOUR MONTHS. Mr. Masri’s horrible experienced ended when he was dropped off on an Albanian hill top after months of interrogation and an initial stripped, beat, shackled, diapered, drugged and chained flight to Afghanistan… All of this pain and outrageousness caused because Mr. Masri was a victim of “mistaken identity” apparently the CIA confused him with a “terrorism suspect” of a similar name… uggg

The Arguments from the side happy with this rejection proclaim that by allowing a court hearing to progress “state secrets” would be revealed… what a simple distraction tactic! Claim our security will be bruised and suddenly its OK not to hear a case about torture and American abuses abroad… its suddenly ok for Bush to take liberties with our own liberty and to run the American image through the mud even more…

I realize that sometimes there ARE state secrets that are important, and I also admit that I do not know all of the “secrets” that may or may not have come out from such a trial but I do strongly feel that there still MUST be a way for justice to be served and for those responsible for allowing and the instruction of such horrible operating procedures to face the consequences. Its far to easy to claim the national security trump card, especially when there is no end in sight to this “war” we are supposedly in and no end in sight of the outrageous over step of power this Admin feels its entitled to. The debate over freedom vs security will rage on for sometime and I hate to use an over drawn quote but its quite relevant…

Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

In fact, by giving up Liberty you lose both it and your own safety… some have realized this, many more need to…

On a side note…
What would happen if you disappeared for 4 months with no contact with your friends and family? Many would suspect you dead, you’d lose your job and would probably return to a financially ruined life… all because someone in the Bush Admin decided that equal protection and due process do not apply to those they see as being involved with this “war” on terror. It saddens me that the CIA ruined this mans life. I don’t have any first hand knowledge but have little faith that any type of restitution or even an apology was given to this man.

Please, heaven forbid I resemble someone the CIA wants to talk to… I’d probably never be heard from again.

Bush has veto’d two bills in his 6 years in office. Thats 10 less than the average president (most veto around two per year, some more, some less).

His two choices for Vetos

Stem Cell Research
Children health Care.

There may very well have been issues with these bills but are you telling me that he could not find fualt in ANY OTHER of the vast bills that included Ear Marks, Pork Barrel Projects and blatant over spending? None of the other bills to pass his desk deserved a Veto? Give me a BREAK!

Bush Vetos Bill that included 35 Billion over 5 years for Childrens Healthcare. If there is one area I can see an increase in gov. it is when it is focused on helping those too young to help themselves. Bush can spend 190 Billion A YEAR on the Iraq war, but he wont spend 35 Billion over 5 for the health of our young ones… so so sad.

Prostitution has been legal in Hungary since 1999. The government has zoned certain areas away from schools and churches as the stomping grounds for the worlds oldest profession however it just recently passed law that allows Prostitutes to apply for an entrepreneurial permit which will allow them to fully participate in the economy and tax system. This new step even allows for customers to receive a receipt after completing their “transaction”.

I’ve always been upfront on my views with this topic. People should live and let live. If someones actions do not hinder your freedoms then we a society have no basis to deny them the freedom to that behavior.

There are many things that I would not choose to participate in personally; however, I am able to separate my personal morals from what I think are fair playing rules for others.

Just because I wouldn’t do it does not mean it should be illegal.
Just because I would do it does not mean it should be legal.

I came up with a new quote yesterday.

Sometimes thinking only a little can be worse than not thinking at all.

P.S, QUESTION: Is that Lady with the receipt a Client or a Provider?

Watch this CNN I-Report Video of student (Andrew Meyer) asking a series (3) of questions to Senator John Kerry at the university of Florida and I hope feelings of disgust and shock start to surface with you.

The actions of those police officers is en-excusable. Mr. Meyer spent no more than 2 minutes asking his questions, raised 3 legitimate inquires and yet was forcibly removed from the discussion. He repeated asked what he “had done” and why several officers were physically retaining him. No answer was given. When he failed to “stop asking questions” he was TASERED into submission. Now, I do not know which (if any) official asked for him to be removed or why, but clearly something went wrong here.

1) U of F says that it “prides” its self on civil debate and exchange. Obviously the officials at this event don’t because Meyers was never allowed to hear the answers Kerry was prepapred to answer.

2) As a member of the armed forces with private security experience I along with all others in these fields are taught something called the “force Continuum“. This continuum outlines the proper use of force when dealing with resisting subjects. These officers violated this central part of their training. As an example you can view this layout of a rather standard force continuum. http://www.cpso.pdx.edu/images/forcecontinuum.gif

The part that applies to this situation is listed under the Physical Control section. It lists Hair takedown, Joint Takedown, Digital Control (meaning control of the arms and legs), Joint Come-Along, Pressure Points and THEN electronic Stun Device. The police in this video clearly failed to follow anything that could be resembled as a proper escalation of force; add on top of this that the student did nothing to warrant physical police involvement to begin with and you can see how absurd this situation is.

Kerry can be heard in the background telling the police to let the student be and and that he will answer his questions but the officers are un-phased by this instruction.

Shame on the officers for acting in a such a poor manner. Does it really take 4 cops AND a taser to remove a student from a room? Absolutely not.

Shame on Kerry for not being more forceful in his instructions to the officers to release Mr. Meyer.

And lastly, shame on society for normally being such sheep to police, on not knowing our rights and on allowing official intimidation. This whole situation makes me ill and reminds me of another situation where police acted out of line. Could we please stand standing up for out rights?
