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 wrote last Thursday about the possible demise of Dick Cheeny. This week there have been many articles about the chance of Cheney not being on the ticket because of his mouth and Halliburton. Here are a couple:

Halliburton's Rising Cost for Bush
The ever-growing list of charges swirling around Cheney's former company could repel key swing voters in a tight election
In a normal political season, President George W. Bush could tough out the string of embarrassing charges of war profiteering and bribes emanating from Halliburton (HAL ), where Vice-President Dick Cheney used to hang his hat. But as Democrats more or less unite behind Senator John Kerry (D-Mass.), they're getting the better of Bush on issues ranging from missing Iraqi weapons to missing American jobs. With the 2004 election looking to be as tight as 2000's cliffhanger, the drip-drip-drip of Halliburton charges threatens to erode one of the President's greatest strengths: Character and credibility.


Has Bush's running mate gone lame?
Halliburton and health troubles leave Cheney vulnerable as election approaches
