- Your Sneak Preview of the Bush Library Tour: Not to be missed!
  Posted by themelinda
  What kind of a Library can they build for a guy who does not read? What kind of research facility do you have for a president who made sure that NO ONE could access the documents? The Tour answers those questions and give you the opportunity to apply your own imagination to the problem. Enter with glee.

- Celebrate an American Anniversary: December 16, 1775 The Boston Tea Party
  Posted by themelinda
  August 14, 1765 marked the founding of a revolutionary secret society made up of individuals whose actions would be echoes in the quote by Margaret Mead, "A small group of thoughtful people could change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." Remember and celebrate the Boston Tea Party on December 16th.

- Howie Rich and Ed Crane: Their antics in South Carolina
  Posted by themelinda
  While Tim Moultrie, teacher and proponent for making quality education a reality for the children in South Carolina, worked to obtain that goal Howie Rich and Ed Crane and their friends funded the same old establishment that had made it impossible. Tim Moultrie, a real reformer, also filed a law suit to force the Republicans and Democrats in his state to follow the law they made for others. Moultrie is working for all of us.

- HOW the NeoCons Stole Freedom: Get Smart: Texas is determined to get Phil Smart, Libertarian candidate for 22nd State Senate
  Posted by themelinda
  Now that we are not protected by the 4th Amendment the accusation of being a terrorist is ever more frightening. Philip Smart in Ellis County, Texas started out to clean up local corruption. He has been accused and incarcerated without charge. Who will be next?

- McCain's Stand On Detainees May Pose Risk For 2008 Bid
  Posted by Billbar from Washington Post
  The neocons think McCain's anti-torture stand will hurt his candidacy. I doubt it.

- The Clash of Civilizations Doesn't Exist... Yet
  Posted by Billbar from Alternet
  We're fortunate that most of the Clash of Civilizations rhetoric is obvious nonsense peddled by cynics playing to our latent xenophobia, rather than something inherently violent or nihilistic in Islam (it is violent, but no more than any other religion). "Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims" is a common refrain on the many "war-blogs" that have proliferated since 9/11. That's wrong, and purely racist -- like saying all crack-heads are African-American. In the end, the Clash of Civilizations rhetoric is, by design, a way to cut short any discussion of neo-imperialsim (the same reason we hear gibberish that foreign policy critics "hate America," that "they hate us for our freedom" or that "you're with us or against us"). The truth is that we're threatened by a number of lethal organized crime networks -- with politics rather than profits as their chief motivation -- spread out over dozens of countries. ... those reactionaries within our own society who are pushing the Clash of Civilizations are mirror-images of the terrorists that inspire their hyperbolic fear; they're just as xenophobic, just as irrational and, ultimately, are just as great a threat to our security. Both have to be challenged aggressively before they give birth to another, even bloodier generation of culture warriors.

- Wanted: Scarier Intelligence
  Posted by Billbar from New York Times
  The nation cannot afford to pay the price again for politicians’ bending intelligence or bullying the intelligence agencies to suit their ideology.

I can't believe someone didn't like this story. It just goes to show the duplicitous nature of the neocons. I thought it was funny.
