In Season 5 of "Rescue Me," Tuesday night on FX, the specter of 9/11 becomes a major character once again, when a French journalist starts interviewing the firefighters about their experiences for a commemorative book. This season one major character will become seriously ill with cancer apparently caused by his work at Ground Zero. Another character, Franco Rivera (Daniel Sunjata) will articulate his Internet-fueled belief that 9/11 was "an inside job," the result of "a massive neoconservative government conspiracy" that was designed to increase American power by creating a pretext for seizing control of the world's oil supplies - a view Mr. Sunjata himself happens to share. Early word of that plotline has already caused some lively News Corporation anti-synergy between FX and Fox News, where the commentator Greg Gutfeld furiously said it was tantamount to giving airtime to "the crazy guy on the subway." (Hard to believe everybody doesn't KNOW by now! Connie) The reason we wrote it," Mr. Tolan said, "is that Danny was spouting this stuff and even some of the guys, the firefighters on the set, were saying 'What is this?' " (They, of course, phrased it more strongly.) "We saw how divisive this was and thought: We have to do this." Mr. Sunjata admits to some trepidation about how the show's audience will react to the story line. "I won't say that my opinions were warmly received on the set," he said. "At one point I thought, 'Maybe I'll get fired if I keep opening my mouth.' But even though Peter and Denis didn't sign on to this conspiracy, they were brave enough to include it in the show. I give them and FX and Fox - I never thought I'd say this - a big round of applause." read more at: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/05/arts/television/05harr.html?pagewanted=1&th&emc=th learn all about the show at: http://www.fxnetworks.com/shows/originals/rescueme/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Now there's something you can do to end these injustices; to take back control of our nation and our money system and start the rebuilding process on a solid and just foundation. A special presentation of The American Monetary Act will be made on Capitol Hill, April 23, 2009 in Room 304 of the Cannon House Office Building. Please ask your Congressmen to attend. This presentation has been requested by a House member to explain the American Monetary Act to members of Congress and their staff. It will describe what the Act does and exactly how it benefits each Congressional District. It will show that it contains the minimum reform actions needed, for monetary reform to work - to place time on the side of justice. THEY will understand that it is workable. Your request for them to attend can be made by phone, or by letter. Modify the sample letter below to fit your style, or better yet, write a letter in your own words. Its important to send the letter now, since the anthrax scare it takes extra time for letters to reach Congress. OR if your Congressmen are on spring break (until April 20th) you can reach them at their home office right now. Stop by in person - It will have an effect! Print out and hand them a copy of the American Monetary Act (attached). At the very least phone and ask them to attend the April 23rd Cannon 304 presentation, and send a copy of your letter to their local office as well. Thanks people for your attention. Stephen Zarlenga Director, Ami NOTE: If you do not know your representative's addresses, you can find your Representatives at https://forms.house.gov/wyr/welcome.shtml Your Senators addresses are at: http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm Here's a sample letter - modify it to fit your style. Remember this is a non partisan educational event - all political parties are welcome. Dear Congressman/Senator: I am writing to ask you to attend a meeting in Room 304 of the Cannon House Office Building on Thursday, April 23, 2009.so you can learn about the American Monetary Act - legislation prepared by The American Monetary Institute, which fundamentally reforms our private credit system, replacing it with a government money system. Under this Act, the Federal Reserve becomes incorporated into the U.S. Treasury. Banks would no longer have the privilege of creating our money supply. (Just look how they have abused it!) The government will take back control of our money, and our nation. Banks will continue to loan money, but will not create it. They must cease to dominate our government. The American Monetary Act nationalizes the money system, not the banking system. Banking is not a proper function of government, but providing the nation's money supply is a key function of government. This Act begins our national rebuilding process based on a solid and just foundation. Stephen Zarlenga, Director of the Institute will be in room 304 the whole day to answer questions that arise, so whatever your schedule, you and your aides will have an opportunity to attend. In addition a formal presentation with several speakers will be made at a time to be determined. After hearing the presentation and if all your questions are answered satisfactorily, I hope you will become a co-sponsor when this Act is introduced as a bill. Please mark April 23rd on your calendar now.

Dear Andrew, Why is Obama protecting Bush? Ask President Obama to stop blocking court review of warrantless wiretapping by the Bush administration. In the heat of the presidential campaign, then Sen. Barack Obama cast his lot with major telecommunications companies ? and AT&T specifically ? by voting to give big telecom retroactive immunity for allegedly helping the White House illegally spy on Americans. It was one of the most disappointing moments of the campaign. However, as a candidate Obama did forcefully oppose the Bush administration's use of the "state secrets" privilege to get cases thrown out of civil court. But now, President Obama is using the "state secrets" defense to make the case that the United States government can never be sued for surveillance that might violate federal privacy statutes. Tell Obama: Stop blocking court review of illegal wiretapping. On April 2, President Obama's lawyers invoked Bush's radical theory of executive power to argue for the dismissal of the Electronic Frontier Foundation's litigation against the National Security Agency for the warrantless wiretapping of countless Americans. Of course, the government should be able to argue before a court that the public release of some information would unacceptably damage national security. But many courts have handled national security information with appropriate safeguards, and the mere assertion of "state secrets" without persuading a judge with evidence is just plain wrong. When it comes to the abuse of "state secrets" defense, we agree with candidate Obama, not President Obama. If EFF's case against the NSA is dismissed, we may never know the extent of the Bush administration's illegal spying on Americans. President Obama needs to hear from progressives on this issue. Click on the link below to join me and ask the president to stop Justice Department lawyers from asserting "state secrets" privilege. Mr. President: Let the courts decide if Bush administration spying violated the constitution. Sincerely, Michael Kieschnick, President CREDO Mobile from Working Assets P.S.

In yet another break with its campaign promise to fight to restore civil liberties and privacy, the Obama Administration has made a breathtaking claim of state secrets to block a public interest organization from suing the government for illegal surveillance. There is not a scintilla of difference in the legal position of President Obama and the position of President Bush in trying to quash any effort to challenge unlawful surveillance by the government. It appears the ?yes we can? means ?yes we can do most anything that we want? when it comes to unlawful programs. ? The Administration is moving to kill a lawsuit brought by the Electronic Frontier Foundation on behalf of AT&T customers who were unlawfully intercepted by the government. Not only is the Administration making an extreme argument under the military and state secrets doctrine but it is claimed that citizens cannot sue, even if the government engages in unlawful surveillance, under the Patriot Act. Due to changes put through with Democratic support, the statute is being used to block any lawsuit unless the citizens can show that there was ?willful disclosure?? of the communications by the government.

Thanks, Connie (Also, details below: 9/11 Truth scholar to speak at Bradley University in Peoria on May 3rd.) - - - The Deseret News, Utah's largest-circulation newspaper, has published a concise write-up on scientific proof of explosives at the World Trade Center Towers on September 11, 2001. The article features 18 months of meticulous research by "...nine authors of a paper published last week in the online, peer-reviewed Open Chemical Physics Journal. "The newest research... shows that dust from the collapsing towers contained a 'nano-thermite' material that is highly explosive... "(A professor) states, 'There is no benign explanation for the thermite found in the WTC dust.' (This is in context with steel skycrapers never before collapsing from even long-burning fires.) "A young student: 'It's exciting from a scientific point of view, because things are now making sense. (How the towers went down symmetrically at free-fall speed.) But I feel sad for my country.'?" http://www.deseretnews.com/article/1,5143,705295677,00.html Dr. Kevin Barrett, professor, author, and researcher will be at Bradley University, Sunday May 3rd at 3:00 pm, Caterpillar Global Communications Center, room 126. Dr. Barrett has previously spoken in Peoria alongside William Rodriguez, famous as the "The Last Man Out" of the Towers after guiding many people to safety. For this he was honored at the White House. But he became "banished" by the administration due to his lecture tours' focus on his personal experience of explosions in the Towers' basements just before the first plane hit. >From a blurb for Dr. Barrett's book, "Truth Jihad": Millions of people now know the main arguments for "9/11 was an inside job," starting from the controlled demolition (planted explosives) in the World Trade Center buildings No. 1, 2 and 7. Time Magazine was obliged to note that "the 9/11 Truth Movement is no longer a 'fringe' phenomenon." http://www.bookfinder.com/dir/i/Truth_Jihad-My_Epic_Struggle_Against_the_9-11_Big_Lie/0930852990/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Slow wheels of (real) justice cranking out. Beverley http://www.thedailybeast.com/blogs-and-stories/2009-04-13/the-bush-six-to-be -indicted/ THE DAILY BEAST Blogs and Stories by Scot Horton The Bush Six to be Indicted Spanish prosecutors will seek criminal charges against Alberto Gonzales and five high-ranking Bush administration officials for sanctioning torture at Guant?namo. Spanish prosecutors have decided to press forward with a criminal investigation targeting former U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and five top associates over their role in the torture of five Spanish citizens held at Guant?namo, several reliable sources close to the investigation have told The Daily Beast. Their decision is expected to be announced on Tuesday before the Spanish central criminal court, the Audencia Nacional, in Madrid. But the decision is likely to raise concerns with the human-rights community on other points: They will seek to have the case referred to a different judge. Both Washington and Madrid appear determined not to allow the pending criminal investigation to get in the way of improved relations. The six defendants-in addition to Gonzales, Federal Appeals Court Judge and former Assistant Attorney General Jay Bybee, University of California law professor and former Deputy Assistant Attorney General John Yoo, former Defense Department general counsel and current Chevron lawyer William J. Haynes II, Vice President Cheney's former chief of staff David Addington, and former Undersecretary of Defense Douglas J. Feith-are accused of having given the green light to the torture and mistreatment of prisoners held in U.S. detention in "the war on terror." The case arises in the context of a pending proceeding before the court involving terrorism charges against five Spaniards formerly held at Guant?namo. A group of human-rights lawyers originally filed a criminal complaint asking the court to look at the possibility of charges against the six American lawyers. Baltasar Garz?n Real, the investigating judge, accepted the complaint and referred it to Spanish prosecutors for a view as to whether they would accept the case and press it forward. "The evidence provided was more than sufficient to justify a more comprehensive investigation," one of the lawyers associated with the prosecution stated. But prosecutors will also ask that Judge Garz?n, an internationally known figure due to his management of the case against former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet and other high-profile cases, step aside. The case originally came to Garz?n because he presided over efforts to bring terrorism charges against the five Spaniards previously held at Guant?namo. Spanish prosecutors consider it "awkward" for the same judge to have both the case against former U.S. officials based on the possible torture of the five Spaniards at Guant?namo and the case against those very same Spaniards. A source close to the prosecution also noted that there was concern about the reaction to the case in some parts of the U.S. media, where it had been viewed, incorrectly, as a sort of personal frolic of Judge Garz?n. Instead, the prosecutors will ask Garz?n to transfer the case to Judge Ismail Moreno, who is currently handling an investigation into kidnapping charges surrounding the CIA's use of facilities as a safe harbor in connection with the seizure of Khalid el-Masri, a German greengrocer who was seized and held at various CIA blacksites for about half a year as a result of mistaken identity. The decision on the transfer will be up to Judge Garz?n in the first instance, and he is expected to make a quick ruling. If he denies the request, it may be appealed. Judge Garz?n's name grabs headlines in Spain today less because of his involvement in the Gonzales torture case than because of his supervision of the G?rtel affair, in which leading figures of the conservative Partido Popular in Madrid and Valencia are now under investigation or indictment on suspicions of corruptly awarding public-works contracts. Garz?n is also the nation's leading counterterrorism judge, responsible for hundreds of investigations targeting Basque terrorist groups, as well as a major recent effort to identify and root out al Qaeda affiliates operating in the Spanish enclaves of North Africa. Announcement of the prosecutor's decision was delayed until after the Easter holiday in order not to interfere with a series of meetings between President Barack Obama and Spanish Prime Minister Jos? Zapatero. However, contrary to a claim contained in an editorial on April 8 in the Wall Street Journal, the Obama State Department has been in steady contact with the Spanish government about the case. Shortly after the case was filed on March 17, chief prosecutor Javier Zaragoza was invited to the U.S. embassy in Madrid to brief members of the embassy staff about the matter. A person in attendance at the meeting described the process as "correct and formal." The Spanish prosecutors briefed the American diplomats on the status of the case, how it arose, the nature of the allegations raised against the former U.S. government officials. The Americans "were basically there just to collect information," the source stated.The Spanish prosecutors advised the Americans that they would suspend their investigation if at any point the United States were to undertake an investigation of its own into these matters. They pressed to know whether any such investigation was pending. These inquiries met with no answer from the U.S. side. Spanish officials are highly conscious of the political context of the case and have measured the Obama administration's low-key reaction attentively. Although Spain is a NATO ally that initially supported "the war on terror" under Bush with a commitment of troops in both Iraq and Afghanistan, relations with the Bush administration deteriorated after Zapatero became prime minister and acted quickly to withdraw the Spanish contingent in Iraq. In the 2008 presidential campaign, Republican John McCain referred to Spain as a hostile state in comments that mystified Spaniards (it appears that McCain may have confused Spain with Venezuela and Zapatero with Hugo Ch?vez). Recently, the United States and Spain also wrangled over Spain's decision to withdraw its troop commitment in Kosovo as well. Both Zapatero and Obama, however, have given a high priority to improving relations between the two long-standing allies. Spanish newspapers hailed the fact that Obama referred to Zapatero three times as "my good friend" during the recent European summit meetings, a sharp contrast with meetings at which former President Bush gave Zapatero a cold shoulder. Both Washington and Madrid appear determined not to allow the pending criminal investigation to get in the way of improved relations, which both desire, particularly in regard to coordinated economic policy to confront the current financial crisis and a reshaped NATO mandate for action in Afghanistan. With the case now proceeding, that will be more of a challenge. The reaction on American editorial pages is divided-some questioning sharply why the Obama administration is not conducting an investigation, which is implicitly the question raised by the Spanish prosecutors. Publications loyal to the Bush team argue that the Spanish investigation is an "intrusion" into American affairs, even when those affairs involve the torture of five Spaniards on Cuba. The Bush Six labored at length to create a legal black hole in which they could implement their policies safe from the scrutiny of American courts and the American media. Perhaps they achieved much of their objective, but the law of unintended consequences has kicked in. If U.S. courts and prosecutors will not address the matter because of a lack of jurisdiction, foreign courts appear only too happy to step in.

Whatever the left or right labels, pretty much all of what I've seen on this list had to do with issues and perspectives that were not getting a hearing in the mainstream media and often were suppressed outright, from truly anti-war perspectives (as opposed to those who want to fight a "smarter war") to those who know we aren't hearing the real story behind 9/11, etc. etc. I have to disagree, however,? that those on the "left" now have little or no driving reason to continue "fighting the power," to put it in those terms, although far too many suffer from that delusion. I recommend you all take a few minutes and read the first in a new series on "The Era of Obama: The Collapse of 'The Movement,' the Resistance and the Revolutionary Movement We Need" in the current issue of Revolution newspaper, at http://revcom.us/a/162/collapse-en.html. While this article speaks mainly to the anti-war movement, there are points that apply more broadly and I'd be curious to know what other people on this list think of the analysis in it. Back to Iggy's point about this "Tea Party" movement, it IS remarkable that now not only Fox News but NPR and other media outlets are promoting this BEFORE the events even happen! Has that happened to a lot of activities you all have organized? Not that I've seen! We get next to no coverage when there are 1000s in the street. We are in a very tense moment right now in this country and the world, with huge stakes, and the ruling class (or call it the establishment or whatever you want--those holding the power and commanding the military might) is faced with huge problems that we will bear the brunt of--from ongoing wars, increasing military budgets, financial meltdown ameliorated by mega-bailouts of the financial forces at the heart of it, cuts in social services just when they are most desperately needed, and only the prospect of more and worse. So now we get a supposedly liberal president who we're supposed to believe has our best interests at heart in charge of all of the above? Far too many good people are buying this and taking a "wait and see" attitude that only enables the above scenario of rescuing a bankrupt SYSTEM (not just Wall Street or any other element thereof) while crimes in our name escalate and millions suffer here and around the world. (Just two very current examples: There are now estimated to be 15,000 homeless children in New York CITY alone, and one million people have been driven from their homes in NW Pakistan by US military drones devastating whole villages there. in recent weeks) Now we have a 'populist movement' springing up around the country, heralded by media across the extremely narrow spectrum of 'acceptable opinion,' that has an equally narrow and individualist message that may well be aimed at destabilizing that same president. I for one don't know enough about this movement and would appreciate any information and background that others can share about it, preferably from a range of sources. But it is certainly reasonable to point out the disparity of what purports to be a movement of protest being built through the very media that has been complicit with pretty much everything we all have been protesting for years.

One reason gets at the heart of what is going on in this thread: fan the flames of the illusory right vs left dichotomy. If they can keep the discussion and the "movement" as DEMS vs GOP, right vs. left then they will successfully prevent WE THE PEOPLE from joining together to fight against who we ought to fight against: the people who are UP above us in terms of wealth and power and who are simultaneously down below us in terms of compassion/morality. This includes every member of the Bush and Obama regimes. The reality is we are not stuck in right vs left paradigm but we are stuck in a grand pyramid scheme. The longer we fail to recognize this divide and conqour technique the more successfully they will divide the people and keep us squabbling at each other and not notice the criminals laughing their way to the bank. This Gary vs. Iggy situation was a perfect example and Iggy sadly swallowed the hook and bolted with it lodged in his intestine. They were both right. Iggy was right to point out who was controlling the tea party, but Iggy failed to notice that the signs Gary was asking people to print were not anti-left nor anti-obama but they were anti- fed and anti establishment. Why should we let any "wing" highjack a people's revolution? We more then anyone should definitely have gone to the Fox/NPR designed tea parties so that our voice is represented and we can help the people understand that they are not right wing nor left wing but have a common cause which is to stop the criminals in both parties who are stealing and murdering at will. I think the elite know that a revolution of some kind is in the making with the way things are going so it makes sense that they get on board and lead the mice and sheep around rather then allowing the people to control their own protest. I've read some indy media folks who believe that a civil war type situation is a very real possibility here in the not too distant future. If they can successfully get people riled up and turn it into a violent left vs. right rebellion then they will be able to confuse and diffuse the people while implementing stricter big brother/martial law restrictions. Lets not feed into their plans. We are smarter then that.

Note: This report should be read from its website location at http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1224.htm as this email copy does not contain the links embedded in the original report.] April 15, 2009 Obama Caves To CIA, Saves Bolivian Leader From Certain Death By:Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers An FSB report circulating in the Kremlin today states that President Obama was forced to ?cave into? demands made upon by his own CIA to not prosecute them for torture and murder or Bolivian leader Evo Morales [2nd photo, left] would be assassinated on the eve of the 34-nation Summit of the Americas in Trinidad, an action which if carried out would have permanently severed the United States from Latin America. In facing this ?impossible choice?, these reports continue, President Obama chose the Bolivian leaders life, and upon his informing the Bolivian Federal Police Forces of the CIA plot to kill their President was able to avert Morales? assassination, and as we can read: "Bolivian police said they had broken up an armed international group yesterday that was plotting to assassinate President Evo Morales. Three suspects were killed and two were arrested in a half-hour shoot-out with officers in the eastern city of Santa Cruz, police said. The area is the centre of political opposition to Mr Morales. Police confiscated explosives, high-calibre weapons and plans to follow the president's motorcade, police commander Victor Hugo Escobar said. They included C-4 explosives "that don't exist in Bolivia," Vice-President Alvaro Garcia said." President Obama honored his blackmailed promise to the CIA, and as we can also read: "President Barack Obama absolved CIA officers from prosecution for harsh, painful interrogation of terror suspects Thursday, even as his administration released Bush-era memos graphically detailing ? and authorizing ? such grim tactics as slamming detainees against walls, waterboarding them and keeping them naked and cold for long periods. Human rights groups and many Obama officials have condemned such methods as torture." Tensions have been growing between the United States and Bolivia after President Morales? election, and as explained in this report: "The tiny South American country of Bolivia has just signaled that it will no longer be pushed around by the United States. This week they took radical step of declaring U.S. Ambassador Philip Goldberg to be "persona non grata", and asked him to leave their country. He is expected to leave within 72 hours. Why would they do such a thing? It seems that once again the United States has been trying to interfere with the internal affairs of another country. The Bush administration doesn't seem to be able to let other countries determine their own future. They want to dictate to other countries what policies they should follow and who their leaders should be. In this case, newly-elected President Evo Morales (pictured above) has accused the United States and Ambassador Goldberg of conspiring against Bolivia's democracy and encouraging the break-up of the country. Morales is the first fully indigenous person to become president of Bolivia, and he was elected to the office in 2006. Since assuming office, he has nationalized the countries gas reserves. He is trying to redistribute the proceeds from this gas to help the poor and working classes of his country. He is the first Bolivian president to really try to help the country's underprivileged (most of whom are indigenous people)." Russian Intelligence Analysts point out in these reports that the battle between President Obama and the CIA was foretold by the spy agency itself when after his taking office they gave Obama the codename of ?Renegade?, and which Obama certainly lived up to in his choice to lead the CIA, and as we can read: "The incoming Obama administration has named Leon Panetta, of all people, as its nominee for the Director of Central Intelligence. Some observers are confused, to put it mildly, about the pick. The guy -- a former White House chief of staff and House Budget Committee chairman -- has a reputation for being a tough, competent manager, they say. But can he really be an effective CIA chief, with experience in the cloak-and-dagger world? What about those pledges, to keep the intelligence community out of politics? "I find the choice of Leon Panetta to head the CIA a curious one," one well-connected former spy tells Danger Room. "On the one hand, if you are looking to pick a nation's top spook, it is generally a good idea to pick someone with more than a cursory exposure to the intelligence business. It is also more than a little annoying that we can't seem to find a CIA chief that hasn't spent all of their adult life playing politics." On the other hand, if you are truly pushing an agenda of change, Panetta has the political and managerial chops to get the notoriously stiff bureaucratic wheels of the intelligence community moving in the right direction. Not being an establishment CIA or IC guy he is less likely to feel sentimental for the old boys and 'the way we've always done it' routine. An ex-senior CIA manager tells Laura Rozen that the message of the Panetta appointment was clear: "The message is, 'I don't want to hear anything out of the CIA. Make it go away. No scandals. Keep it quiet,'" the former officer told me. "They put over there a guy who is a political loyalist, who will keep everything nice and quiet, but who won't know a good piece of intelligence from a shitty piece of intelligence, and wouldn't know a good intelligence officer" from a bad one." With these latest events, however, it appears as though the CIA has no intention of going ?quietly into the night? and is, instead, preparing to fight for its survival against their own President, no matter what. It should not be forgotten, either, that this is not the first time that the CIA has squared off against an American President as the still unresolved assassination of President Kennedy attests to, and as reported by the Pravda News Service in their May, 2006, report titled "John F. Kennedy killed by CIA agents?", and which says: "Did the U.S. government cover up the details pertaining to the assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedy? An answer to this question will be much sought after by participants of a conference that kicked off on Monday, May 15th, in Washington, D.C. According to the report of the Warren Commission, President Kennedy fell victim to "Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone." However, the "alternative" versions of the tragedy argue that two or more people shot at JFK in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas, on November 22nd, 1963. The above versions allege that U.S. government covered up the truth behind Kennedy?s death. The participants will reportedly present new data to support the version about the "CIA conspiracy." According to the theory, CIA agents might have replaced Kennedy?s brain with that of another person during the president?s autopsy. By a strange twist of fate, the plane carrying Senator Ted Kennady, the brother of the late President John F. Kennedy, was struck by lightning right on the day when the conference kicked off in the U.S. capital. No one was harmed during the incident yet the news seemed to serve as yet another reminder of grim fate controlling the Kennedys." ?

This is why we find this national money element written into documents from Benjamin Franklin's 1754 plan for a Perpetual Confederacy to the Articles of Confederation to the Constitution itself. It helps to recall that the Constitution was essentially a commercial document. This issue of taxation goes to the heart of money creation. Most of the founding fathers, Jefferson, Madison and Franklin among them, knew that taxes would be kept extremely minimal if the nation created debt free money, instead of allowing the banks to do so as is now the case. We can see this in one of Thomas Jefferson's own remarks, "It is literally true that the toleration of banks of paper discount costs the United States one-half their war taxes; or, in other words, doubles the expenses of every war. Now think but for a moment, what a change of condition that would be, which should save half our war expenses, require but half the taxes, and enthral us in debt but half the time." How is it so many miss this critical fact? Well, below is a partial explanation, excerpted from the first of a series of articles I am working on about the "Ron Paul Phenomenon": The subject of taxation is irrevocably tied to money creation . . . A good deal of the present-day confusion over how and who is charged with the creation of our money seems to stem from the works and writings of Alexander Hamilton. What is most important to keep in mind is that the early, hard fought money debate centered on whether the Hamiltonian model of using ?implied powers? to allow a privately owned banking system to create our money out of debt was in fact Constitutional. Author Olive Cushing Dwinnel offers some intriguing insight into Hamilton's arguments. After citing relevant quotes from Hamilton, she writes: ?Pointing out the fraud of these arguments, it was one of the principles of the Colonial governments (even in that earliest Convention in Albany when the colonies met for protection, and peace with the Indians), as well as in the old Continental Congress and the Constitutional Convention, to create a uniform currency under Union authority, and discontinue the use of state power over issuing currency or emitting bills of credit. . . ?The [Hamiltonian] argument that because the States were not permitted to continue issuing money after the Federal Government was established, as pointing to the same policy for the Federal government, is not based in fact or on the Constitution, for the Constitution provides that the Congress SHALL have the power to coin money. . .. ?Such arguments of Hamilton show either his complete lack of confidence in our Republican form of government, or else a clever trickery and sophistry of words to force the use of a foreign and usurious system of banking and private control of money issuance on the new government. . .Also his statement that government cannot be trusted to use its power to issue sufficient currency while private banks and money lenders can be so trusted is another proof of his well known monarchial and imperialist sympathies and his complete distrust of a people's government.? (11) For those needing still more support for the above, you need to read a recently published scholarly article on original intent appearing in the ?Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy? which adds legal as well as historical evidence as to what is "Constitutional" money - and concludes, in part, that: ?According to the original understanding, the Constitution's Coinage Clause granted to Congress the express power to coin money and bestow legal tender quality upon that money. . . In addition, the money thus "coined" did not need to be metallic. Paper or any other material that Congress selected would suffice.? _http://www.umt.edu/law/faculty/natelson/articles/Coinage%20Clause.pdf_ Folks, we are running out of time on this! If we don't get a clue VERY soon America will be lost, and we will devolve into a third world country. We have, by some estimates maybe a year. gerip Mike Kirk wrote: > > It was an anti-corporation revolt ( East India Trading Co). > > http://www.commondreams.org/view/2009/04/15-10 > > "Although schoolchildren are usually taught that the American > Revolution was a rebellion against "taxation without representation," > akin to modern day conservative taxpayer revolts, in fact what led to > the revolution was rage against a transnational corporation that, by > the 1760s, dominated trade from China to India to the Caribbean, and > controlled nearly all commerce to and from North America, with > subsidies (government bailouts) and special dispensation (tax breaks) > from the British crown." > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > _______________________________________________ > CitizensTruth mailing list > CitizensTruth at six.pairlist.net > http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/citizenstruth > website: http://citizenstruth.info > From geri at thetwofacesofmoney.com Tue Apr 21 14:58:54 2009 From: geri at thetwofacesofmoney.com (Geri Perry) Date: Tue, 21 Apr 2009 13:58:54 -0500 Subject: [CitizensTruth] Monetary Reform, IMPORTANT TIME SENSITIVE ACTION ITEM [Fwd: Washington Meeting details] Message-ID: <49EE176E.8090502@thetwofacesofmoney.com> Please use this opportunity to recontact by phone or email (links below) Congressman and Senators and ask them or an aide to attend the upcoming Thursday April 23 informational meeting about the American Monetary Act.

Thank You, gerip -------- Original Message -------- Dear friends of the American Monetary Institute, Please forward this to your email list and to your congressional representatives offices. A special presentation of The American Monetary Act will be made on Capitol Hill, April 23, 2009 in Room 304 of the Cannon House Office Building. Presentations will be made at 10:00 AM and at 2:00 PM. Please ask your Congressmen and his aides to attend. This presentation has been requested by a House member to explain the American Monetary Act to members of Congress and their staff. A one page description is below and attached. Your request for them to attend can be made by phone, or by email. Thanks people for your attention. Stephen Zarlenga Director, Ami Here below and attached is a one page description of the meeting. Please email it to your representatives and forward this email to your email list. *The American Monetary Institute Presents* *The American Monetary Act* * * Contact: Stephen Zarlenga 224-805-2200 *Where:* Cannon House Office Building, Room 304 *When:* Thursday April 23, 2009. Presentations at 10:00 AM and at 2:00 PM *What: *The American Monetary Act - legislation which fundamentally reforms our private credit system, replacing it with a government money system. *How: *_The Federal Reserve_ becomes incorporated into the U.S. Treasury. Banks no longer have the accounting privilege of creating our money supply. All their previously issued credit is converted into U.S. Money through an elegant and gentle accounting change, which has been described as brilliant. New money is introduced by the government spending it into circulation for infrastructure starting with the $2.2 trillion the A.S.C.E. tells us is needed to maintain our infrastructure over the next 5 years. _Infrastructure_ will include the necessary human infrastructure of health care and education. _Banks_ are encouraged to continue lending as profit making companies, but are no longer allowed to create our money supply. Thus, The American Monetary Act nationalizes the money system, not the banking system. Banking is not a proper function of government, but providing the nation?s money supply is a key function of government. *Who: *The American Monetary Institute, organized in 1996 as a publicly supported charitable trust (501 C3),* *is the leading U.S. think tank on monetary history, theory and reform. ** *Why: *Because the crisis our present malformed banking and money system has caused is crying out for reform, not merely regulation.

Check out this forwarded message on how to avoid forced (toxic) vaccinations. -------- Original Message -------- / / / / ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hi, all, The story goes deeper into crime. Remember in 1976, the swine flu vaccine killed 2,300 people in 2 weeks after the government paid billions for the "free"-to-public vaccine? The vaccine was pulled and is still in the vaults. Virus are not alive; they have no nucleus, respiratory or digestive systems. Virus are protein wastes in solvent solutions. They are as contagious as Tide soap. It is impossible for one animal tissue in solvent solution to appear in another animal because those tissue are not part of another animals cellular structures. Have they been distributing the old swine flu vaccine as other medication in pockets in Mexico because they know it causes swine flu residues in people. The stories about it appearing in other countries are fictitious stories because I have not been able to get any laboratory confirmation. Were those stories planted by US government and the pharmaceutical house that vaults the vaccine? Do the laboratory and government want to resell the vaccine and get rid of it for profit. The government is still paying for it to be vaulted and that is very expensive. Why didn't they dump it? For the same reason they did not dump AZT when it was discovered by independent observers in 1969 that AZT was too toxic for chemotherapy? But when the government created the AIDS epidemic by contaminating Hepatitis B Vaccines and, in Africa the Smallpox Vaccines, they brought AZT out of the vaults and claimed it was good to treat AIDS. They treated AIDS patients with it and it killed most of them and they made a big profit as well as taking over 27 African countries resources. Research the work of Dr. Leonard Horowitz and read the book Bio-Attack Alert. With the swine flu, they are creating an imaginary "pandemic" and viola, people will flock to take the swine flu vaccine. With the Geneva Convention articles, they cannot force vaccine on anyone but they may be able to quarantine people for a few days. Remember that no vaccine has proved to be effective, including polio. Many such diseases have cycles and polio was down to less than 1% the year before the polio vaccine was issued in 1958. All vaccines are issue after the diseases have diminished and big pharma takes credit for riding the planet of the diseases. If polio were a problem, why isn't it an epidemic amongst third world people who cannot afford and do not take polio vaccines? Why is polio non-existent in Amish and Mennonite communities where they don't take vaccines? To help you avoid any forced vaccine here or in any other country, I have given you 2 pages below to be kept and taken with you. The first is the letter that the person requiring you to take a vaccine must sign before you take it. The second page is instructions on how to handle the situation. . healthfully, aajonus ____________________________________________\ page 1 *ACCEPTANCE OF RESPONSIBILITY* I, the undersigned, having assumed decision making power independently, or having been appointed to such, by a government bureaucracy or corporation controlled by such, do require the following individual(s): _______________________________________________________________ to receive the following vaccination(s): _______________________________________________________________ contrary to laws of this state that provide religious and philosophical exemptions.

Name (print):___________________________________Position:__________________ Signature:___________________________________________Date:__________ page 2 INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE ACCEPTANCE OF RESPONSIBILITY DOCUMENT When you receive your passport, it might be wise to request a copy of Foreign Rules and Regulations, Part 71, Title 42, on immunizations. The World Health Organization (WHO) in Geneva grants American visitors the right to refuse vaccinations when traveling internationally. Remember the basic rule: / No one may vaccinate against an individual?s will unless, by so doing, the enforcer assumes full responsibility for consequences, both legal and medical./ When traveling abroad, you may secure exemptions from vaccines by using Clause 83 of the International Sanitary Code, issued by the WHO and adopted by all its members. It states, in effect, that only when coming from an infected area are vaccinations necessary or the traveler could be quarantined for up to 14 days from the time he left the infected area if the health department deems it necessary. If you come from an area where there has been an epidemic, you will probably be put under surveillance (close watch). This simply means that together with the local health officer you must keep a close watch for any suspicious signs or symptoms. You will probably be required to report periodically to your local health officer for a period of up to 14 days from the time of departure from the infected area. If you notice an outbreak or symptom, you must immediately turn yourself in and submit to quarantine or isolation. In actual practice, not only is this possibility very remote, but if it should occur, the vaccinated person may be required to submit to the same surveillance as the vaccinated! Remember, every year, thousands of 'unimmunized' tourists travel in and out of the United States with little or no inconvenience or embarrassment. It is quite obvious that no individual in his right mind will sign this document. The intention is not to get an individual to accept responsibility in this way, but to: Realize that there is a considerable risk. Realize that they themselves could care less that someone else is injured. Realize that they will accept no responsibility for vaccine related injuries. Become acquainted with the risks and to accept responsibility by not forcing compliance to some bogus rule, standard or guideline that is not the law at all. It is intended to put the official on the defensive that is a substantially weakened posture. Furthermore, it is a response to the intimidation that is often encountered. If an individual refuses to sign on, ask the following question: "Why not? Am I supposed to accept all of the responsibility and my child to accept all of the health risks?" Then offer to negotiate the potential settlement, and ask: "How does one establish the monetary value of suffering?" "Is it worth nothing to you?" "What is the law and what does it state?" "Who benefits financially from this program?" ---answer: The school district gets federal money if there is 100% compliance. ?How does this present a risk to others?" He or she should start to get the message.

Polio Outbreak Occurs Among Amish Families In Minnesota By David Brown Washington Post Staff Writer Friday, October 14, 2005 The first outbreak of polio in the United States in 26 years occurred earlier this fall in an Amish community in central Minnesota, state and federal health officials reported yesterday. Four children have been infected with the virus, although none has become paralyzed. The Amish typically decline to vaccinate their children. The last large outbreak of polio occurred in numerous Amish communities in several states in 1979. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/13/AR2005101301733.html From welaware at merr.com Mon Apr 27 15:57:28 2009 From: welaware at merr.com (Kris Knight) Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2009 14:57:28 -0500 Subject: [CitizensTruth] [Fwd: : Swine flu swindle?] In-Reply-To: References: <49F6068A.2030002@thetwofacesofmoney.com> Message-ID: <5CEF195F-E48A-459E-8882-A6FF5565A9C8@merr.com> They also sometimes are spoken of as being without autism, which is also not true, as well as is the idea that vaccines are the sole cause/ contributing factor for autism. Heard a compelling 2 hr. phone interview betw. Dr. Mercola and Dr. Klinghardt re. Dr. K's extensive work with trying to figure out autism. Major factor is Lymes infection in mom while pregnant and/or in child, dormant sometimes, until traumatic event jumpstarts the active autism, such as a vaccine. But there are many other things that can set this into motion, and there are other co-factors as well, most specifically one esp. important being heavy metal toxicity. When chelating for the heavy metals, if infectious process not addressed, the heavy metal suppression of infectious symptoms can ease, thereby increasing the severity of the autism symptoms, which can put the whole process into a tailspin. And there was much more in the co- factor categories. ON the upside, he has had extraordinary results with his protocols, which now include a new amazing antioxidant with acronym OSR---very expensive but he says it's amazing for kids with autism. He says that if the current rate (now is 1 in 50) continues, ALL children will be diagnosed autistic by about 2013. And keep in mind this is only one of the neurological conditions he was citing; there are others that are majorly involved and implicated here, such as ADD and ADHD. if you think of this spectrum under the umbrella of "neurological conditions", very helpful...

I agree more with Walter Burien on this one, i.e., "An audit of the Federal reserve is NOT what is needed, an audit of Governments NET domestic and international derivative trading activity held by and managed for government by themselves, or the Federal Reserve, other Banks, Brokerage, and Insurance companies, is what is URGENTLY needed!" If you have read my series "The World According to Derivatives" - available at http://onlinejournal.com/artman/publish/cat_index_22.shtml - you can understand how it is that Wall Street has managed to expand an "off-balance sheet" money supply through derivatives thereby creating a "shadow banking system" run by traders/investment banks for the benefit of high rollers around the globe. Chossudovsky and Carroll Quigley are right. The investment banks are the ones who control the financial economy - while the Fed and other central banks essentially control the money supply within their own countries and therefore can have an effect on the REAL economy by tightening or loosening credit/money. The center of power (and corruption) is Wall Street, with "sovereign" investment funds aiding and abetting, and our own government enabling at all levels through "public/private" partnerships, creation of government "off-shore" accounts and assorted other suspect means. An audit of these investment banks, insurance companies and government trading accounts, together with investigation of rating agencies and the activities of complicit government officials is truly needed because as Burien's account below implies - at least some members within our own government may very well be knowingly complicit in the most massive legalized theft of other people's wealth in history. The one crucial point Burien misses is the problem of money created as debt. This enables him to believe that the problem will be solved if we just clean up government and related partners in crime. BUT - in order to achieve a long term solution we need to get Congress to do its Constitutional duty and issue debt "free" money. Otherwise the many-headed hydra will be back with a vengeance, using slightly different tactics, like it always has. ___________________________________________________________________________ Derivatives - A complete Audit of Government's "NET" profits is URGENTLY needed! by Walter Burien 04/06/09 The explanation of derivatives given in the email post copied below is that of a fictional Saturday morning cartoon for children's entertainment. The International and domestic Commodity Futures market prices are determined by traded contracts of different commodities and a listing of the primary domestic ones can be viewed at the following link: http://www2.barchart.com/mktcom.asp?code=BSTK "Every" trade is settled by the exchange. The trades can generate massive profits or losses for the players. All trades generate $$$ cash profits or losses, and every trade settles by the exchange. Government in the last three decades has taken over the derivatives market. Upon viewing of "who walks" with all the cash from the trades in end result when trades are closed, local and federal government is taking 90% of the cash profits, and the public and others are stuck with 90% of the losses as a rule in application. The brokers, exchanges, and a few from the public who get "lucky" are getting the other 10%. A derivative is an item where a trade can be entered and closed out in five second, five, minutes, five days, or five months. When closed out, their is no further liability or profit incurred on the trade and as in the profit side, you walk with the cash and the ongoing derivative trades are someone else's issue. Government as the biggest monopoly on earth has "sucked" all of the cash out of everyone else's pockets as they opened and then closed each and every trade through the use of these derivative trades. Government does take losses, on trades but their NET results for overall profits taken out of the international market places are not touched by any other. Truck-loads "of cash" were hauled of between 2001 - 2008 into government trading accounts (many government accounts now off-shore) as trades were entered and "closed". Then come the end of 2008, these government trading account (largest ones mostly off-shore) seeing the inevitable bursting of the housing market boom where the music would stop playing very soon, positioned themselves with massive "short" derivative positions, then intentionally stopped the music at their que, and started to dump their physical equities on the international market place causing the collapse. Thus in doing so guaranteeing a *massive profit* on their short derivative positions, massive losses on everyone else's trades and to their account balances as they "*promoted*" their losses to their physical domestic holdings to say "oh look how terrible it is"... Get it? Then for the definition of arrogance: They then use a trillion dollars here and a trillion dollars there from taxpayer revenue to shore-up the playing field that "they" dis-stabilized in the first place as their greed was applied for complete takeover of the wealth transferred from one hand (domestic government accounts) to the other (off-shore government accounts) through the use of derivatives, a market place that "they" expanded up from an 80 trillion dollar a year international market place in 2000 to a six-hundred trillion dollar a year market place in 2008 giving themselves the ability to pull the plug and clip everyone else... I will repeat what I have put out in numerous emails in the last four months: "A complete audit of government's _off-shore_ accounts is urgently needed to determine the net result of the recent market manipulations." With derivatives, with every one dollar lost, one dollar is credited to another's account. here we are talking in the international Stock Index, Interest Rate Index, Dollar Index, Crude Oil Index, Precious Metals Indexes trillions of dollars transferred.. The exchanges settle EVERY trade, and ALL were settled! *SO WHO WALKED WITHE THE CASH!* *Government did from all the rest!!!* An audit of the Federal reserve is not what is needed, an audit of Governments NET domestic and international derivative trading activity held by and managed for government by themselves, or the Federal Reserve, other Banks, Brokerage, and Insurance companies, is what is URGENTLY needed! Will it be done? I doubt it. That would be like the foxes who just walked with all of the hens out of the hen house conducting an audit on the 50,000 hens that use to be in the hen house that just "disappeared" for disclosure as to "who took them!"

How lovely. Polio Outbreak Occurs Among Amish Families In Minnesota... The virus that all four children are carrying is derived from the oral polio vaccine. That vaccine has not been used in the United States since 2000, in part because it causes paralysis in about one of every 13 million doses administered. American children now get an injected vaccine, which also prevents infection. The oral vaccine, which is still used in most places in the world, is made of a live but severely weakened strain of polio virus. The vaccine virus can be passed person to person, although it rarely becomes part of a prolonged "chain of transmission" because most people in a population are vaccinated and cannot be infected. Where it was circulating, however, is a mystery. Hull said it is likely the virus was imported from a country where the oral vaccine is still in use, but the Amish have little contact with people outside their community. The first infected child had no known exposure to foreigners.Public health officers are going door to door offering polio vaccine and requesting stool samples of all children. About 35 samples have been collected and 32 tested. Fewer than 20 children have been vaccinated, Hull said. > From: hal at drxyzzy.org > To: citizenstruth at six.pairlist.net > Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2009 14:40:58 -0500 > Subject: Re: [CitizensTruth] [Fwd: : Swine flu swindle?] > > On Apr 27, 2009, at 2:24 PM, Geri Perry wrote: > > > Why is polio non-existent in Amish and Mennonite communities where > > they don't take vaccines? > > > Polio Outbreak Occurs Among Amish Families In Minnesota > By David Brown > Washington Post Staff Writer > Friday, October 14, 2005 > > The first outbreak of polio in the United States in 26 years occurred > earlier this fall in an Amish community in central Minnesota, state > and federal health officials reported yesterday. > > Four children have been infected with the virus, although none has > become paralyzed.

[Fwd: ILGP ACTION ALERT: HELP DEFEAT HOUSE BILL 723!] Message-ID: <49F76D99.3080409@thetwofacesofmoney.com> -------- Original Message -------- A hearing on HB723 ? the "Protect Incumbents Act" ? will take place before the Senate Elections Committee on Tuesday, April 28 at 1:00 pm in Room 400 of the Capitol. Greens and others across the political spectrum who are tired of top-down party boss politics are urged to take action. * Testifying at the hearing is the best step that we can take. If you are in or near Springfield and can make it on Tuesday, call Dan Kairis at 847-695-3195 to coordinate meeting up with other Greens there. * Call the Senators on the Senate Elections Committee and ask them to vote No on HB723. A list of Senators on the committee is included at the bottom of this message. If you live in one of these Senators' districts, it is especially important that you call. Emailing is alright, but calling gets a lot farther. * Spread the word. Although the bill seems to be especially targeted at Greens, it's not just Greens who are adversely impacted by this legislation. It's aimed all across the political spectrum at anyone who isn't currently in power. Forward this message to as many groups as you can. The fight to defeat this bill will likely last past Tuesday. HOUSE BILL 723: PROTECTING INCUMBENTS, TARGETING GREENS House Bill 723, the "Protect Incumbents Act", is a bipartisan-supported bill specifically aimed at the Green Party and all other "political outsiders". Currently, if no candidate runs in the primary for a given office, Illinois law allows an established political party to "slate" a candidate onto the general election ballot. If HB723 passes, then "slating" would have to be accompanied by collecting a massive amount of signatures in a short, cold time frame, effectively ending the practice. The bill passed the House earlier in April, so we need to try and get it shut down in the Senate. The ability to slate is essential because of other strange aspects of Illinois law, including a very early primary (first Tuesday in February), and very difficult petitioning requirements for state legislature. These requirements aren't a problem for incumbents and other candidates connected to the big party machines, but for Greens, these are extremely burdensome requirements. And as it so happens, the requirements are also burdensome for the Republicans in places like Chicago where the Democrats exercise one-party rule, and for the Democrats in places like DuPage County where the Republicans exercise one-party rule. The bill is designed specifically to protect incumbent state legislators, regardless of which party they belong to. The Green Party in particular is a clear target of the bill. The Daily Illini in an April 14 editorial wrote: "While the bill's sponsor, Rep. Mike Fortner (R-95), says the initiative is to even out the playing field for all candidates, this legislation would make it extremely difficult for a Green Party candidate to get on the ballot; the bill comes off as a direct attack against smaller parties." Read the entire editorial at: http://www.dailyillini.com/opinions/editorials/2009/04/14/house-bill-723-attacks-underrepresented-parties In November 2008, 59 of 118 Illinois House seats and 20 of 40 Illinois Senate seats were unopposed in the general election ? one-half of all legislative seats! This is a longstanding black mark against Illinois, a sure-fire sign of bipartisan political corruption. And if HB723 passes, the number of unopposed seats will increase significantly. The incumbents don't just want to make sure they win; they don't even want to have to run against anyone. But if Senators hear from constituents and others, there is a good chance the bill can be stopped - just like a similar bill was stopped in the same Senate committee last year.

Dear Friend, With the growing concern over the recently discovered Swine Influenza, I wanted to take a moment to answer questions or concerns you may have about the illness and to provide some resources you can take to protect yourself and your family. To date, no cases of human infection have been confirmed in Illinois, but with more than?60 confirmed cases in the U.S., we can take these small steps to guard our loved ones: Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze, and then throw the tissue in the trash after you use it. Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth. Germs can spread easily this way. Try to avoid close contact with sick people. If you get sick with influenza, CDC recommends that you stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them. Be sure to contact your healthcare provider if you are worried about your symptoms; your health care provider will best determine whether influenza testing or treatment is needed. The Center for Disease Control is working with state and local public health agencies to investigate the situation and guard against broader ill effects.? For more detailed information, visit my website, or visit http://www.cdc.gov/swineflu/. If I may be of assistance in any way, please feel free to contact my District Office in Bloomingdale at 630-893-9670.? Very truly yours, ? District Office 150 S.

Just as ignorance of the law doesn't get us excused if we break the law, remaining unconscious about the issues a politician addresses doesn't sit well with me either. Notice how cleverly Roskum makes sure to tell us we need a "health care provider" in order to make a good judgement about what is best for us. This is cleverly designed disempowerment. When someone inquires to a politician about swine flu, I'm going to bet they weren't asking for his health advice, but his legal advice. Looks like bait and switch to me.

Press Conference Thursday, April 30 11:00 am Haymarket Memorial Randolph & Desplaines St., Chicago IL ? Media Contact: Jorge Mujica (773) 852-8815 Chris Mahin (773) 726-1284 ? Immigrants and workers, joined together with their supporters, call to go forward with march on May Day for equality, labor rights, legalization and just immigration laws. ? CHICAGO ? Using the fear surrounding the swine flu outbreak, anti-immigrant groups, including those in city government, call for a cancellation of the workers' and immigrants' rights demonstration. Immigrants and workers resolve to hold fast and rally with the slogan ?without legalization there can be no equal labor rights? despite targeted attacks from the government. ? ? Father Jose Landaverde said ?I was directly contacted by city officials. ?They wanted to know if we were canceling the march, they wanted us to agree to wear masks if the march was going to happen.?? Margarita Klein, Staff Director of Workers United, states: ?If people are not allowed to march on May Day because of health concerns, then similar precautions must be taken in other crowded events taking place in Chicago. We will cancel the march when every sporting event, movie showing, church service and class is cancelled.? While aware of the situation in Mexico City, march organizers wish to express their demands without being singled out because of their country of origin. ?May Day is a traditional day to raise grievances dating back over 100 years. Workers and immigrants are under attack and city officials can not discourage May Day organizers from exercising their rights to raise issues that affect millions of people. ====================================================== ? * Due to talks with the City of Chicago we had to start the march earlier; we must leave promptly at 11:30 am.

Wisconsin Fourth-Graders Boycott School Lunch from Blog: Slow Food USA by Gordon Jenkins Patricia Mulvey reports on the blog F is for French Fry that last Friday, a group of fourth-graders at Nuestro Mundo Elementary School in Madison, WI had planned to protest the unhealthy food served in their cafeteria by staying behind in class during recess and enjoying a home-cooked meal with fresh fruits and vegetables. Their "Real Food Picnic" - you might call it an Eat-In- was canceled, however, when the school district's assistant superintendent alerted parents and administrators and asked them to discourage the event, citing concerns about food allergies, lack of supervision and the presence of news media. The students are members of a group called "Boycott School Lunch (BCSL)" that they founded last fall after conducting some "gross experiments" like measuring how much grease they could squeeze out of a hamburger. This year, they've been learning about Martin Luther King Jr. and the civil rights movement in history class. When teacher Joshua Forehand showed them a film about the Children's Crusade that took place in Birmingham, AL in 1963, the students were inspired to organize a peaceful protest in support of improving school lunch.

At least one worker told the newspaper that the fluids, which witnesses described as green and spewing into the air near the drilling derrick, were used for a drilling process called hydraulic fracturing.

Okay, it's my sick sense of humor coming out again. I apologize in advance, but if I don't laugh about this stuff, I'd spend all of my life sobbing. This is a terrible tragedy. Let's honor the lives of these animals by using our dollars to support a better way of life for all of us.

At least one worker told the newspaper that the fluids, which witnesses described as green and spewing into the air near the drilling derrick, were used for a drilling process called hydraulic fracturing.
