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

Thank God the adults are back in charge
Bush Official Sorry for Calling Union 'Terrorist'

A great update on the pre-war intelligence, if that's what you want to call it
The Business Of Intelligence
Ahmad Chalabi, the former exile leader of the Iraqi National Congress, is still on the Pentagon’s payroll, according to Knight-Ridder. Chalabi’s so-called intelligence service, the "Intelligence Collection Program," is getting $3-4 million a year from the Pentagon. (Knight-Ridder gently points out: “It. . . suggests some in the administration are intent on securing a key role for Chalabi in Iraq’s political future.”)
