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

Social Security is not broken and therefore does not need to be fixed

Did you really doubt that it wasn't going to happen? Did you think they would just sit there and let the conquerors do it to them again. You do know this isn't the first time the westerners came in and tried to "democratize" them, right? They told us over and over again. Sistani said he wanted elections soon or there was going to be trouble:
Al-Sistani also has the support of other influential Shi'a leaders in Iraq; in addition to al-Hakim, Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Taqi al-Modaresi, who is based in Karbala, argued on Tuesday that the national assembly should be elected through national elections rather than through regional caucuses. Al-Modaresi gave a strong message to the U.S.-led coalition: "I am concerned about increasing frustration among Iraqis and I am telling everyone that they are a peaceful people. But it will be a different story if they run out of patience. I fear sedition."
Now we are at war. That wasn't a war last year. We had a slim chance and now it is gone. No WMD. No Al Qaeda connection. No connection to 9/11. Just a defenseless country with OIL. Let's face it we've been had and there is only thing that matters and that is many more will die before this is over.
