Silence is Consent

If you don't speak up you accept what is happening. This site was born out of the mainstream media's inability to cover the news. I am just an American cititzen trying to spread the word in the era of FCC consolidation, post 9/11 Patriot Act hysteria, hackable voting machines and war without end. I rant and post news items I perceive to be relevant to our current situation.

All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent.
- Thomas Jefferson

I think today I am just going to post articles and let them speak for themselves, more or less. They are in no particular order.

Thom Hartmann: 'The theft of your vote is just a chip away'.

The scientists were supposed to tells us where everything is, right? No WMD, but plenty of war. More on the scientists, Something to Hide?

A good take on your pResident's press conference yesterday, The usual mangled speech but Bush is let off the hook in rare press conference. I love the British press!

Why does the military support this (mis)Administration? 17 Ex-P.O.W.'s Won't Get Part of Seized Iraq Assets, Judge Says. Couldn't they have let them have a few bucks at least? Here is the last paragraph:
But more recently, in general language in a law passed in April to appropriate money for the Iraq war, Congress authorized the president to void other laws concerning Iraq. In May, President Bush used that authority to void the November law. A lawyer for the former prisoners, Steven A. Fennell, said, "A few general words buried in an appropriations bill" should not "take away the ability of American P.O.W.'s tortured in the dungeons of Iraq to realize a measure of accountability."
Close your eyes and imagine if Tom DeLay was Secretary of State. Now you don't have to, DeLay Says Palestinians Bear Burden for Achieving Peace.

So they issue a terror warning saying terrorists may highjack planes so what does the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) doyou ask? Flip-flop on air marshal schedules. I want to say one thing about this. While the air marshals could help on an old style highjacking, let's not forget that even if no one can stop the highjackers from taking the planes, like on 9/11, the FAA and NORAD still had plenty of time to intercept those planes and keep them from doing what they did. That is what everyone should focus on, (refer to yesterday's 40 lies link, #15). Not just how to stop planes from being highjacked but why standard operating procedure was not followed on 9/11!!

This is just sad. US army admits Iraq suicides.

And now this!? Why The Dots Were Never Connected.

Oh the irony. Deceit, danger mark U.S. pursuit of new WMD. Well after all we gave them to Saddam to begin with.

It was quiet for a few days, wasn't it? 2 US Soldiers Killed in Separate Attacks in Iraq.
