"....those who make blanket condemnations of 'conspiracy theories' base their own view on a farfetched theory indeed, namely that whatever those in high office actually do, they are essentially men of goodwill. According to this school of special pleading - the 'King can do no wrong' doctrine suitably updated - it is entirely proper to praise an American President for skillfully engineering some desirable result, but to note the same skillful engineering of an indefensible one is to fall victim to 'political paranoia' and 'conspiritorial fetishism' on a par with subscribing to the Protocols of the Elders of Zion...."

Now, let's get back to that other article. It is a MUST READ!! Here's the story and description:
Bush justice is a national disgrace By John S. Koppel A career employee of the Justice department risks his career to report: "I can honestly say that I have never been as ashamed of the department and government that I serve as I am at this time. The public record now plainly demonstrates that both the DOJ and the government as a whole have been thoroughly politicized in a manner that is inappropriate, unethical and indeed unlawful."

In France, a senior pol dares to question the 9/11 tale
Today, nearly six years after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, does anyone doubt the Bush administration and the mass media's grand narrative about just who was responsible for those shocking, sudden, well-coordinated and super-destructive events?
Well, yes....

Anthrax Coverup: A Government Insider Speaks Out
By Reprehensor
Created 2007-07-04 05:52
By Steve Watson
Is it possible that the anthrax attacks were launched from within our own government? A former Bush 1 advisor thinks it is.
Francis A. Boyle [2], an international law expert who worked under the first Bush Administration as a bioweapons advisor in the 1980s, has said that he is convinced the October 2001 anthrax attacks that killed five people were perpetrated and covered up by criminal elements of the U.S. government. The motive: to foment a police state by killing off and intimidating opposition to post-9/11 legislation such as the USA PATRIOT Act and the later Military Commissions Act....
...."At the time I myself did not know precisely what was going on, either with respect to September 11 or the anthrax attacks, but then the New York Times revealed the technology behind the letter to Senator Daschle. [The anthrax used was] a trillion spores per gram, [refined with] special electro-static treatment. This is superweapons-grade anthrax that even the United States government, in its openly proclaimed programs, had never developed before. So it was obvious to me that this was from a U.S. government lab. There is nowhere else you could have gotten that."

GOOD RIDDANCE
Two judges quit Project Censored to protest 9/11 story
By C. D. Stelzer
Chances are, the resignation of two judges from Project Censored won’t be included in the organization’s next list of overlooked news stories.
But rest assured — there’s no conspiracy afoot.
Judges Robert Jensen, a journalism professor, and Norman Solomon, a syndicated columnist, severed their ties with the national media watchdog group over its decision last year to highlight the controversial theories of physics professor Steven Jones, a critic of the 9/11 Commission findings.
Jones hypothesizes that the Sept. 11, 2001, collapse of the World Trade Center towers was the result of controlled detonation of military-grade explosives rather than fires caused by two passenger jets that slammed into the buildings. His views, which are available online at Scholars for 9/11 Truth & Justice http://www.stj911.org , have been largely passed over or dismissed by mainstream news outlets....
....Phillips hopes that by providing an outlet for Jones' theories Project Censored can help spur the creation of a truth commission to further investigate the events of 9/11. "This is a sore spot in American politics," he says, "that’s not going away."

ARCHITECTS & ENGINEERS: 9/11 INSIDE JOB
Democrats host speaker on collapse of towers [1]
Architect says it's time to review scientific data on Sept. 11
by Natalie O'Neill
....At the beginning of the speech, he asked the audience of 40 to raise their hands if they believed explosives were used in the towers. About 60 percent of the audience raised their hands. At the end of his speech, he asked the same question and about 90 percent of the audience raised their hands....

HAPPINESS IS AN INSIDE JOB
....If we as individuals are focused on our own happiness, does that become incongruent with wanting to live our lives like Jesus, Gandhi or Mother Teresa?
MBB: Once we understand that happiness is an inside job, that it is a spiritual quality, then focusing on (personal) happiness is not selfish, it’s not self aggrandizement....

Jones Report - Michael Moore: "I support... a new investigation of this, before we get too far away from it."
By Reprehensor
Discusses Explosions in Buildings, Demands '100 Angles' of Pentagon Video, and Calls for a New Investigation-- "They Haven't Even Told Us Half the Truth."
Aaron Dykes / Jones Report | June 19, 2007
Academy Award winner Michael Moore answered questions on 9/11 truth during a sneak peak of his new documentary, SiCKO, in New York . Our reporters were initially avoided by Moore, but he subsequently decided to approach We Are Change.org/ Infowars.com reporters for a discussion.
Moore brought up his lingering questions on 9/11, which are a clear departure from the 'government negligence' picture he painted in his film Fahrenheit 9/11, released some three years ago.
Moore told reporters, "I've had a number of firefighters tell me over the years and since Fahrenheit 9/11 that they heard these explosions-- that they believe there's MUCH more to the story than we've been told. I don't think the official investigations have told us the complete truth-- they haven't even told us half the truth."

no recourse nor protection save to call for the impeachment of the current President. - madintexas, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Watch the documentary, Black Box Voting, I think it was on HBO. Really scary stuff.
- mcwong999, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0It's not even surprising anymore. This administration is thoroughly corrupt.
- west16th, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Well worth your time...
- stevebonzai, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0I HAVE ORTIZ ON MY MAILING LIST. EVERYTHING I SEND TO FRIENDS GETS HIM AT THE MAIN SPOT, THEN I BCC ALL MY FRIENDS AND CC TO ME. I SENT HIM THE SHEEHAN NOTICE AND ASKED IF HE WAS NEXT. FIRST YA GOT TO GET THEIR ATTENTION. I VOTE AND LET THEM KNOW. THIS IS A GOOD IDEA. STEVE
- kenbarrny, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0In New York, the DRE is just about dead. The requirements of the Election Law here almost guarantee we will have to take Opti-scan. However, a ban on these inherently flawed machines, which can never provide an OFFICIAL paper trail, would be the final nail in their coffin. Therefore, it must become reality. As long as DRE is breathing, its builders will do everything in their power to sell them.
- gravitylove, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Ban DRE's!
Like a modern-day Rube Goldberg Machine, these voting-computers are far too complicated and corruptible for the simple task of voting.
Vote on paper! - jengelsiepen, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0If we don't expose the Republican election fraud of 2000, 2002, 2004 and/or 2006, then we will have republican everything forever - because the fix is already in the works for 2008 - the replacement of the United States Attorneys was part of the plan. They weren't kidding about a "Permanent Republican Majority" - but the only way to keep that illusion is through fraud - and they're VERY good at it.
- VoterNM, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Papertrails have been shown by Princeton Univerity's IT team to be as easily corrupted as the memory totals in any software driven DRE's to scanners. Paper trails are a misleading pacebo for election security, allowing corruption to proceed. You need hand counted audits of paper ballots that have been hand marked by voters or you have No recountable ballot, and you need hand counted recounts when problems are found, and all this hand counting has to be witnessed by the voters/people.
- VoterNM, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0After a lawsuit claiming disenfranchisement of the voter from their vote using DRE's and winning, the Governor Presidential candidate Bill Richardson, co-sponsored a paper ballot law and it was passed in New Mexico. Now the paper ballots are being counted by scanners and memory cards that can easily be corrupted and there is no language for audits or recounts, so paper ballots are ALMOST as useless to election integrity as DRE's. WE (the American people) need federal standards from legislation that stipulates that elections are the point that the U.S. constitution transfers the power of the people to run their government to their representatives and elections are the PEOPLE'S most important business, not corporations. Such legislation needs to stipulate:
1) No corporate involvement in election machinery certification, operation, maintenance, or software loading, programming, or certification. These functions are the people's business and corporations have consistently been shown to be resistant to letting people participate, witness, audit, or recount elections. Therefore, people will perform these functions; and to be in compliance with this stipulation,
2) All software used on any machine or device that is associated with or counts ballots in any capacity for any election is to be made open source and registered for public inspection and review at the office of each County Clerk's office and Secretary of State's office wherein said software is used; and to check software performance,
3) All machine counts are to audited with hand counts, such that 5% of all precincts in every county are to be audited. If a county has 3 machines, one is audited by counting 100% of the ballots by hand and checking the totals against the machine memory count print out, or poll tape. If any difference is found the hand count is the official count, further all precincts in the county with any discrepancies found are to be be counted by hand and if any more discrepancies are found in more than two precincts in any one county, the entire state is to be hand counted and all machine counts thrown out; and to assure this is done correctly,
4) No hand counts for audits or recounts for county or state can proceed without registered voter witnesses. At least 3 witnesses are needed for each precinct recount. No ballots will be recounted by hand without three witnesses per precinct counting; and to further the security and validate the election of higher office,
5) All presidential, congressional, and state governor races will be hand counted with at least three witnesses, one from every registered party on the ballot. No ballots are to be counted with witnesses present; and to secure this reasoning it is to be stipulated,
6) that elections are the people's business, not corporations, and corporations do not have the rights individuals do have and what is in the best interests of corporations is frequently NOT in the best interest of the people. Much like the tyranny of King George of England that motivated the American Revolution, today's tyrants and corruption sources of our democratic processes in the United States are corporate lobbies, corporate control of the public print and broadcasting media, corporate control or corruption of governmental agencies, such as the CIA, FBI, and domination of election protocol. This law is designed to help end corporate or corrupt intervention from corporate interests and return democracy to the people of the United States. We have no democracy if we do not have open and transparent elections that the people are involved with and witnessing, with no corporate involvement. - activistgrandma, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0go for it now or never
- VoterNM, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0The Democrats are just as guilty of supporting the corporate take over of America and the world as are the Republicans. There is no movement by the Dem's to stop the corporate lobbies, legislation, and control of the print and broadcast media, or election protocol. Republicans are more corrupted because they are corporations or people who support corporations, but Dems are not separating from corporations because big MONEY runs America, elections, print and broadcast media. Today the Dem's and Repugs are two sides of the same coin. There is no representative government in America or democracy.
Materialism and the culture of more more more R U.S. and the job each citizen has is to think outside of the Walmart box and stop being just another Bozo on the bus! - annickbaud, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Electronic voting is an opened door to frauds. We, the people, want our votes to be on paper again, counted and re-counted by humans!
- BigMommaLurka, on 10/11/2007, -0/+01) Voter Verified Paper Ballots
2) Open Source Code
Without these two in concert, we are not a free people. - DemocraToby, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0A valid and honest election system is the best safeguard of our freedom, coupled with a free press and free speech.
- magnett, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0We must ban the DREs. Our founders created the principle of separate and independent checks and balances for our government. Shouldn't what underlies that government - our elections - be based on the same principle? If so no DRE can ever meet the criteria. It's about time we use this criteria to evaluate all laws, regulations and election operations. It's also time to put citizens back into the process.
- jkay65, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0The "camel" is loaded down with straw already , it shouldn't take much more to finally break his back?
- Sleeper4amoment, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0We need to have a verifiable elections that are free from programing glitches and/or munipulation.
- jburn83468, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0RE: VoterNM: This should become law once all typos are corrected. Get it to Congress ASAP
- jburn83468, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Re # 5 No ballots are to be counted with witnesses present? Typo?
- calwellander, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0I see no reason for electronic voting machines, hackable or not. The old hand stamped re-countable paper ballots served us well for many many years and are still the most foolproof method of voting. The only reason I can see to have electronic machines, aside from easy undetectable cheating, is so the media can fight to be the first to tell us who we elected. There is no logical reason we have to know who won minutes after the polls close.
