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

Is this the beginning of the end for Rumsfeld? Iraq Shake-up Skipped Rumsfeld. Here is the story about the new Iraq Stabilization Group, Rice heading new Iraq coordinating group. It seems a little strange that they would announce this while the Secretary of Defense is out of the country. Not to mention that as Rumsfeld said, "I was not there for the backgrounding." Today we hear about this, Bush launching campaign to defend Iraq war. So lets see, Rumsfeld is out of the loop, Condi is now running Iraq and instead of launching a new program or changing strategy in Iraq they are launching a "PR" offensive against the American people. I see, the soldiers dying (see Iraq Coalition Casualty Count) and the Iraqi people rioting for jobs and the problems with water and electricity are just bad publicity. Now that I see that is what's really wrong in Iraq well go ahead and appropriate the $87 billion. Sometimes you just have to marvel at how stupid we are.

Doesn't look like US leaders and the Iraqi Governing Council (IGC) are on the same page, Turkey to Deploy Troops in Defiance of New Iraqi Leaders, Turmoil Deepens.
