Thousands of people gathered in Washington D.C. this week for an organized protest against President Bush's plan to send more soldiers to Iraq. Groups of people spanning all ethnic, age and social groups all made their voices heard as the Senate was discussing the proposal to send more soldiers overseas.
Some of the protesters were seasoned veterans of the Vietnam War era, but many were raw recruits to the anti-war effort. They all shared one thing in common, they do not want an escalation or increase of soldiers in Iraq.

The North Caroline State Bar has charged Mike Nifong with ethics violations in a complaint that Nifong produced misleading statements to the court in the Duke University sexual assault case, which he had been in charge of until he stepped down. He is accused of withholding evidence regarding DNA samples and withholding statements from the court. Nifong could face being removed from the state bar. Before stepping down, Nifong pursued rape, sexual assault and kidnapping charges against the three lacrosse players based on testimony by the accuser. Although the rape charges have been dropped in the case, the prosecution is still pursuing sexual assault and kidnapping charges against the three defendants.DA in Duke Univertsity Sexual Assault Case Charged.

Not with 20,000, not with 100,000.

The idea that an increase in numbers will solve this Iraqi mess fails all tests of logic. An insurgency cannot be broken, it is tempered like steel and is part of the mindset of the people in the region. They see a foreign power come in and remove their government, they see thousands of people die, their electricity doesn't work, their homes are rubble, no water and lack of food; they look at this situation and blame it on the most obvious and immediate group, the occupying power. Regardless of our original intentions, we have severely screwed up the country of Iraq, our cowboy attitude and lack of foresight has left the Iraqi people worse off that they were half a decade ago. Yet our President, our leader thinks he can solve this by sending in more people with machine guns? Sure, maybe in a John Wayne move, but this is the real world and regional politics and mindsets do not change on a whim. They did not greet us as liberators at the start of the war, they will not welcome another surge.

November Midterm Elections

This November, Americans should follow but one doctrine as far as voting is concerned: everyone in office must be voted out. We can not afford to let these failed policies to continue. As far as I am concerned both the Republican and Democratic parties have failed to provide adequate leadership for the people of this nation, they have ruined our image in the world and they have committed atrocities across the world, all in our, the American peoples, name. In the name of freedom, they have stripped us ofour rights, with the Military Commissions Act of 2006. The Declaration of Independence tells us that whenever a government becomes destructive of the rights of the people, we the people have a sacred duty to reform the government, to safeguard the futurethrough our actions in the present. To do this we must reestablish our control of the government, we must vote every politician, regardless of party, out of the government.

Vote them all out!

This past month the Congress of the United States targeted and destroyed the bill of rights with the passage of the Military Commissions Act of 2006, which allows the President of the United States to take into custody any individual that he finds or deems a enemy combatant, allows him to hold said person indefinitely without trial, without representation, without being able to address his accusers, without any of the rights guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States and without any right to claim rights guaranteed by the Geneva Convention. The bill also allows the president to torture these 'ghost detainees', by redefining torture as 'pressure.'
We now live in Soviet America, ladies and gentlemen.
There is only one way to vote this november: everyone in office is to be voted out!
This post used to be protected by the 1st Amendment of the United States Constitution, but there is no longer a bill of rights, thanks to Congress.
