Former Bush Attorney General Michael Mukasey now appears to be blaming our legal system for the 9-11 attacks as opposed to documented failures by the FBI and the failure of the Bush Administration to heed direct warnings of an imminent attack. In an op-ed…

When Matthew Hoh joined the Foreign Service early this year, he was exactly the kind of smart civil-military hybrid the administration was looking for to help expand its development efforts in Afghanistan.
A former Marine Corps captain with combat experience in Iraq, Hoh had also served in uniform at the Pentagon, and as a civilian in Iraq and at the State Department. By July, he was the senior U.S. civilian in Zabul province, a Taliban…

3 American civilians were found today in a plane that crashed two weeks ago.
8 American soldiers were killed in two separate ambushes today.

Are made of the same cloth as our forefathers who started this country.
They are, by kidnapping ships and yachts, protesting the international fisherman that have depleted their waters of the fish they survive on and they are protesting the international dumping of nuclear, medical and industrial waste illegally dumped on their shores which is slowly poisoning the people that rely on the waters to survive.
I say, more power to them.

I have read this article, I don't know if this is a hoax or is this for real. This was found on a astronomy website called "universe today". Right I just seen the story, but is this real? I have noticed that at home I had to run my A/C most of the time and the temperatures outside are in the 60's to late 70's here in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The apartment especially in the bedroom gets warm in here cause of the heat from upstairs, I usually keep the fan on when I sleep at night. Truthfully, I…

....to the effect of: "The world will not end with a bang, but with a whimper."
If the evil elite simply forced marshal law tomorrow and began rolling main battle tanks down the streets of every city in the USA, in a matter of hours there would be rioting in every street in the nation. If they move slower...make the martial law subjective at first.... Distract the people with crises (real or imaginary) that command their attention. "Show a raunchy scandal in the news and you can…

Dear Mrs. Ware:

NaturalNews) Swine flu vaccine zealots are like zombies... they just keep coming at you, mindless... heartless... empty-headed and a tad funky on the smell, too. But I've noticed from observing the behavior of a few such zealots that not all of them fully comprehend precisely how to act like a mindless vaccine zealot. There's more to it than just parroting whatever the FDA says. You actually have to get with the zealot program if you want to be taken seriously as a swine flu vaccine…

The current Swine "flu" pandemic began in La Gloria, a pig-farming village in the Veracruz mountains of Mexico. Surely, if any place could unlock the true nature of the cause of the 2009 Pandemic, it would be found in La Gloria, whose villagers were certain that they were sickened by the surrounding pig farms, which they accused of polluting their air and water with pig waste. This is much like what…

How did they know? They're not part of Merdoch's Media Empire are they?
The Bush Administration aims to recruit millions of United States citizens as domestic informants in a program likely to alarm civil liberties groups.
The Terrorism Information and Prevention System, or TIPS, means the US will have a higher percentage of citizen informants than the former East Germany through the infamous Stasi secret police. The program would use a minimum of 4 per cent of Americans to…

The Pentagon seems to have decided that anthropology is to the war on terror what physics was to the Cold War. As an anthropologist, this makes me very nervous.
Where former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld believed that the United States would vanquish its enemies through technological superiority, his replacement Robert Gates has said that cultural expertise in counterinsurgency operations will be crucial in the future wars he anticipates.
When research that could…

I just came back with the fam's from a trip to the Upper Peninsula of MI and even though it rained everyday, a good time was had by all! It was nice to hide out in the woods for awhile and be in the comfort of family and friends. Unfortunately, the trip had a few question marks lingering and things that make you go hmmmm along the way!
One thing that was a little askew about this particular trip to the U.P. was all the school closings going on over fear of the spread of the Swine…
