George Washington: No Torture on My Watch |
"Should any American soldier be so base and infamous as to injure any prisoner, I do most earnestly enjoin you to bring him to such severe and exemplary punishment as the enormity of the crime may require. Should it extend to death itself, it will not be disproportional to its guilt at such a time and in such a cause… for by such conduct they bring shame, disgrace and ruin to themselves and their country." George Washington 1775 full story |

DHS Developing X-Ray Snoop Device |
It’s not enough they vacuum up your phone calls and emails, they know your medical history and financial transactions, now they want to look through your walls, right into the most private aspects of your life conducted behind closed doors.

Wider Than First Thought |

Paul, a popular doctor who maintained the only ob-gyn practice in his county, was first elected to Congress in 1976.

Police State America: A Look Back and Ahead |
Year end is a good time to look back and reflect on what's ahead. If past is prologue, however, the outlook isn't good, and nothing on the horizon suggests otherwise. Voters last November wanted change but got betrayal from the bipartisan criminal class in Washington. It's been that way ever since 9/11 with both sides of the aisle complicit with the administration. full story |

Intrusive Brain Reading Surveillance
Technology: Hacking the Mind |
"We need a program of psychosurgery for political control of our society. The purpose is physical control of the mind. Everyone who deviates from the given norm can be surgically mutilated. The individual may think that the most important reality is his own existence, but this is only his personal point of view. This lacks historical perspective. Man does not have the right to develop his own mind. This kind of liberal orientation has great appeal. full story |

Global Warming Or Weather Warfare?: Beware
Military's Experiments with Climatic Warfare |
"Climatic warfare potentially threatens the future of humanity, but has casually been excluded from the reports for which the IPCC received the '07 Nobel Peace Prize." Rarely acknowledged in the debate on global climate change, the world's weather can now be modified as part of a new generation of sophisticated electromagnetic weapons. Both the US and Russia have developed capabilities to manipulate the climate for military use. full story |

Controversial Psychosurgery Resulted in a
Nobel Prize: An Actual Page from Nobel Site |
"Since about 1960 lobotomy, with a strongly modified technique (more discrete incisions), has been used only when there are very special indications such as in severe anxiety, and compulsive syndromes which have proved to be resistant to other forms of therapy. Perhaps about five operations a year are now being performed in Sweden. However, I see no reason for indignation at what was done in the '40s as at that time there were no alternatives!" full story |

Presidential Candidate Ron Paul
Bears Empty Pot For Americans |
He never brought you an unbalanced budget, which is a perennial joke. He never voted himself a wage increase and, to this day, gives back part of his salary every year. He has always voted to preserve the Constitution, cut government spending, lower healthcare costs, end the war on drugs, secure our borders with immigration reform and protect our civil liberties. Sorrowfully, he was outvoted or shot down on all measures. full story |

Remarks on Violent Radicalization &
Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act |
Mr. Speaker, I regret that I was unavoidably out of town on October 23, 2007, when a vote was taken on HR 1955, the Violent Radicalization & Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act. Had I been able to vote, I would have voted against this misguided and dangerous piece of legislation. This legislation focuses the weight of the US government inward toward its own citizens under the guise of protecting us against "violent radicalization". full story |

"Thousands" Illegally Rendered By Bush
Administration for Interrogation, Torture |
In violation of law, "thousands" of alleged terrorists have been victims of "extraordinary rendition" by the Bush Admin. since 9/11, two legal scholars say. "Instead of working to bring those committing crimes against the US to justice in U.S. courts, they. seem intent on doing exactly the opposite, keeping such individuals away from U.S. courts, hidden in a web of secret prisons, underground interrogation cells, and in the hands of cooperative govts." full story |

Organic And Fairtrade Chocolates Boom:
Eat as Much as You Like without Guilt |
Thanks to the continuing growth in organic, Fairtrade and ethical chocolates, you can support others less fortunate than yourself, while still getting a coca-fuelled fix.

But growing organic chocolate uses natural methods of pest and fungus control, which can also help cocoa farmers gain more control over their own produce. full story |

A History Lesson With Dr. Paul |
One of the many quirks of Ron Paul's unexpectedly vigorous campaign for the Republican presidential nomination has been that he has been able to generate such a fervent following despite a campaign manner that verges on the grandfatherly. But in a brief interview in New Hampshire a few days ago, Paul showed that he is capable of delivering a barbed line or two, albeit wrapped in a kindly septuagenarian smile. full story |

Illegal Migrant Gardeners
Dig Big Hole for Mitt Romney |
Mitt Romney, whose intolerance of illegal immigrants has been a central theme of his presidential campaign, was caught out for a 2nd time employing undocumented Guatemalans to tend his lawn.

The issue badly damaged John McCain's campaign and caused Hillary Clinton significant trouble last month. full story |

Bush Eyes Iran with Evil Intent |
Chuck Hagel, a student of history, can read until the cows come home before he finds any administration as arrogant and incompetent as President George W. Bush's. Hagel's spot-on assessment of Bush's disastrous presidency really should dominate the campaign for his successor. Whatever the candidates say they would like to do is overshadowed by the monumental mess they will inherit, and Bush still has time to wreak more havoc on the nation and world. full story |

Ron Paul Is a Baby Elephant |
At the same time, the Paul campaign has created something far bigger than just the best canvassing after-parties in the 2008 cycle. His message, a vocal opposition to the war in Iraq, a strict libertarian interpretation of the Constitution and a wholesale rejection of the nation's economic policies, have caused tens of thousands to rally to his cause, including many who typically shun the political game. full story |
