Did you know that the people of Haiti frequently eat mud pies, made from real mud, because food is so scarce?
No Mister! You Cannot Share My Pain!
by John Maxwell
Sunday, January 17th, 2010
If you shared my pain you would not continue to make me suffer, to torture me, to deny me my dignity and my rights, especially my rights to self-determination and self-expression.
I'm mad because now that Haiti is in the forefront I realize very, very few Americans are aware of the actual history of that poor and miserable country and even fewer realize OUR OWN tax dollars created that misery at the hands of George "shop" Bush and Bill "I didn't inhale" Clinton. These two guys literally take the cake when it comes to murdering innocent people with total impunity.
Not only did Bill Clinton terror bomb to death an untold number of people in Iraq and the former… Continue

If a group of dedicated scholars, attorneys, journalists, and activists had tried to generate a comprehensive list of impeachable offenses committed by George W. Bush as president, and only 35 of them had been introduced into Congress, one of the many discarded ones, in rough and overly detailed form, might have read something like this:
In his conduct while President of the United States, George W. Bush, in violation of his constitutional oath to faithfully execute the office of… Continue

Executive Order Seeks to "Synchronize and Integrate"
In the wake of the Flight 253 provocation, over-hyped terrorism panics, and last year's Big Pharma and media-engineered hysteria over the H1N1 flu pandemic, President Barack Obama signed Executive Order 13528 on January 11.
My take on this is that Reuters are inciting violence
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The New York Federal Reserve Bank actively worked with bailed out insurer AIG to build a case against disclosing details of AIG's payments to banks just days after the insurer considered making them public, documents released late on Saturday showed.
Lawyers for the Fed bank, which had taken over a pool of AIG assets as part of a $180 billion government bailout of the insurer in… Continue

Why is it that WE know this, people across the world know this and Iran knows this but the US government behaves as though it weren't true? How can an established government proffer such vast lies?
The whole world knows that the CIA is the globes largest drug dealer and drug manufacturing facilitator. We know that tons of chemical precursors are smuggled into Afghanistan through Pakistan in tractor trailers guarded by Mujahideen paid with American dollars. We know that the aircraft… Continue

When heavy snowfall threatened to scupper Paul Chambers's travel plans, he decided to vent his frustrations on Twitter by tapping out a comment to amuse his friends. "Robin Hood airport is closed," he wrote. "You've got a week and a bit to get your shit together, otherwise I'm blowing the airport sky high!!"
Unfortunately for Mr Chambers, the police didn't see the funny side. A week after posting the message on the social networking… Continue

Book by Henry Charles Carey (Economic Adviser To President Lincoln):
Early in the free-trade crusade it was announced in Parliament that the smuggler was to be regarded as the great reformer of the age, and from that hour to the present all the aid in the power of that body to give him has been rendered; Gibraltar, Malta, Nova Scotia, Canada, and other possessions, having been chiefly valued for the facilities they have afforded for setting at defiance the laws of nations with which… Continue

More than two months before the twin towers were attacked on 9/11/2001, the former Pakistani diplomat Niaz Naik was told by the Bush administration that a US military assault would take place by mid-October of 2001. The Taliban regime in Kabul, which the Clinton administration had secretly supported, was no longer regarded as "stable" enough to ensure US control over oil and gas pipelines to the Caspian Sea. They had to go.
Real revolutions unlike a U.S. sponsored “color revolution” are not easily manipulated events; large masses of suddenly-conscious people have high expectations that cannot be met by the corporate-controlled and manipulated U.S. government. People here in the US are slowly awakening to the abject misery and resource depletion Capitalism causes.
If Americans recognize that millions of Iranians have suddenly become conscious and aware of their subjugation and enslavement by a group of… Continue
