White House tortures 15 year old at Guantanamo then charges him 5 years later with murder!
Everything about Guantanamo is utterly repugnant beyond belief, but the torture of children there is the worst abomination of all. The case of Omar Khadr is one example amongst many, and shows that the US government is utterly lacking in … Continue reading
Top Democrat admits that he lied to cover for Bush’s lies
Senator Richard Durbin, the #2 Democratic Party leader in the Senate, certainly takes the cake. He has confessed to deliberately passing Republican Administration lies to the American people, and actually has the nerve to state that he legally had to … Continue reading
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Congress has passed a war appropriation with an Iraq withdrawal proviso, so everyone’s ramping up to protest the veto Bush has threatened next week. …We want to protest Bush’s rejection of a withdrawal? We’ll have to protest a signing statement … Continue reading
Jesus take the wheel
I was late coming to this country anthem. The chorus hit me today as I heard a succession of barefooted kids sing Jesus Take the Wheel solos at an elementary school talent show. Believe me the nuance was courtesy of … Continue reading

The New Colossus
I met an otherwise conservative old gentleman yesterday with a refreshing answer to the immigration question. Said he: “I’d welcome them!” “This nation was built on immigration, we’re all immigrants -except the Native Americans- and I believe there’s room for … Continue reading
What next, a required chador and veil for Jewish women in Israel?
This BBC item about the backwardness of many Jewish people in Israel has its humorous side I think. See the article Israel’s ‘modesty buses’ draw fire. One might note, also, that Israel is quite advanced in its traffic in prostitutes … Continue reading
Hundreds gather to mourn Yeltsin, not more
Hundreds gather to mourn Yeltsin says the BBC. The title says it all though. Why only hundreds and not tens and hundreds of thousands? Both Yeltsin and Gorbachev are not so popular in Russia today, and it’s more because of … Continue reading
What does ‘Otpor’ have to do with Colorado Springs?
You probably missed the notice, but Otpor will be at Colorado College this week and next, ‘organizing non-violence’ oriented people. Otpor claims credit for itself for supposedly non-violently bringing down Milosevic in Yugoslavia, though the real credit for this feat … Continue reading

Holocaust denial
Tomorrow is Armenian Genocide Remembrance Day but not everybody is remembering. Some want to forget. Some want everybody else to forget, too. Holocaust denial apparently is a crime for some people, and not a crime for others.
Holding your breath is a powerplay?
The Democrats want a timetable to end the war, the President is threatening to veto any such measure. The media describes it as a power face-off. The Legislature has The Power of the Purse, the Executive Branch has The Veto. … Continue reading

New Age posturing with the ‘pickaninnies’
Those who grew up in the Old South, remember when racist politicians used to pose with ‘Negro’ children to supposedly show their concern for Black people. That was a crude technique to deflect criticism for being a racist. White racists … Continue reading

The United Nations is complicit with US war criminality and genocide everywhere
The United Nations is fully supporting US war crimes in multiple nations around our planet. It has become nothing less than a total satellite captured in the orbit of the US Pentagon. In Iraq, the UN has sat by without … Continue reading

Pelosi and Olmert together support Bush’s planned attack on Iran
Much fanfare has been made about how Nancy Pelosi’s recent trip to Damascus was somehow contrary to White House policy. ‘Oh don’t go, Nancy’, shouted the Republicans. Then they called her a traitor for when she did visit Syria. And … Continue reading
How cavalierly they have destroyed the peace in Somalia
Americans have one of the most self-centered medias in the world. Our whole corporate media universe revolves around a DisneyLand fairy tale version of ‘ourselves’. One week it is Ann Nicole Smith, and this week it has been the shootings … Continue reading
