Guided By Voices From the Past Mickey Z. Mickey Z forcefully illustrates, with quotes from leaders and artists of the past, why we must speak up and protect our rights. 07/10/2003 (2) Why the CEO-in-Chief (Bush) Needs an Audit Richard Cohen Richard Cohen believes GW Bush, our CEO in chief, needs a good, honest audit because he's failed on so many fronts--honesty, economics, planning and in all fields he's touched. 07/10/2003 (2) Bill of Rights Founding Fathers of America Editor's Note: American Bill of Rights; First 10 Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. Read and memorize these rights; don't let them be stolen from you by ignorant people inside or outside our Federal Government. 07/10/2003 (2) A "Public Service Announcement" From John Ashcroft (editor's note, "Really?") Elaine Cassel Atty. Elaine Cassell makes clear in her article that Ashcroft is trying to get the media to help him make people believe his malarky about the "Patriot Act" and his Patriot Act 2. She has doubts about Ashcroft and his behavior as head of Justice Department. Editor's Notes: We at T.A.N. believe that Ashcroft has forgotten the real American Constitution and Bill of Rights and must be reading one of two other documents, either the Hitler Manifesto's for Nazism or the Stalinist Manifestos for Soviet Russia of the 1040-50s. 07/06/2003 (2) Martial Law: Is That Bush's Plan Sam Hamod Is Bush pushing his economic plans to create an uprising in America? If so, he's doing it. Could he be trying to create a scenario for martial law in America? Sam Hamod thinks so, at least that it's a possibility because everthing is possible from the Bush team. 07/01/2003 (2) U.S. Aid to Israel Criticized by over 70% of Americans from Vested Owl of Washington, DC A majority of Americans polled, by an independent polling agency, are against the aid being given to Israel and want it cut or stopped altogether. 07/01/2003 (2) Billions For the Bankers: Debts for the People Pastor Sheldon Emry Emry makes clear how banks control money, for the benefit of themselves and the very rich,not for the common citizens. Editor's Note; Even in this day, with the banks getting money at 1%, the people still have to pay 5% or more for mortgages and 17-20% for credit cards--banks make money on the spread between the 1% they pay for the money and money you pay them--not bad for pure arbitrage! Why not give the 1% money to the People! Ah, but then the banks wouldn't make anything... 07/01/2003 (2) Sarcastic Humor: Where Are the WMDs Al Kamen Sarcastic humor from Wash, DC readers about where the WMDs are located. Enjoy. 06/30/2003 (2) I Never Promised You A Ruse Garden: A Letter From Michael Moore ot GW Bush Michael Moore speaks directly to the lies and theatrical stunts of one Lt. George W.Bush (who is also, unfortunately, the president of the u.s. by nomination of his brother and the supreme court). He asks gw to get straight with himself and with america, for the sake of all of us. 06/30/2003 (2) Bush Wants To Bankrupt America: There is Method To His Madness Sam Hamod Hamod hits the nail on the head about what GW Bush is doing in his plan and action to bankrupt America--to steal it from the common citizen and give it to his corporatocracy friends. 06/27/2003 (2) Deception and Denial From GW Bush and friends Paul Krugman Krugman points out that Bush's speeches were, and are, full of deception, then denial of what he has said. But, people must take the risk of standing up, rather than denying what they see going on and turning their heads away. If no one stands up, then, he asks, what will happen to our democracy? Editor's Note: We must all stand up, not just those of us who write and speak, but each of you must speak against the loss of our rights, we must all fight for the truth and we must all keep making our voices heard for justice for all--for when you rights are stolen, mine will be next--that goes for all of us, rich, poor, educated, uneducated, taxi driver to millionaire. 06/26/2003 (2) Kucinich Fighting For Democracy In America: Demands Probe of Cheney Staff Report From Various Sources Dennis Kucinich, in his race to be President of America is fighting for democracy, open-ness in government and wants probes of Cheney and others in the administration to see what part the played in wars, prices of utilities, etc. His campaign is picking up steam; many feel he is the bravest, most outspoken and the most ethical and courageous of all the candidates for President. Editor's Note: We at www.todaysalternativenews.com endorse Dennis Kucinich as the Democratic candidate for U.S. President. 06/26/2003 (2) Effort To Punish "Sanctuary Cities" On Immigration Fails In Congress Steve Miller Right-wing Republicans tried to punish cities that protested against the governments detaining of citizens and others or would not help Ridge and Ashcroft's "war on terrorism"; their attempt to penalize these cities by cutting off funds to them failed. Editor's Note: We say, Thank God they failed, dogs that they are, and un-American dogs at that. 06/26/2003 (2) GOP's Control of America Jim VandeHei and Juliet Eilperin The GOP is not only taking over the government, but major corporations are hiring GOP operatives at all levels in order to have influence in the GOP led U.S. Government. This is a very dangerous precedent that could have long terms effects. 06/26/2003 (2) Presenting--the Hon. Paul Wolfowitz, Lord High Executioner Elaine Cassel Attorney Elaine Cassel, in her own inimitable way, blows the cover on Paul Wolfowitz and the abuses of power being exercised by the American government against civil and criminal rights; this has been worsened by the appointment of Paul Wolfowitz as "Lord High Executioner" for military tribunals to be run by the U.S. Government. Read on for this and other important legal bad news of importance. 06/25/2003 (2) Obama To Have Name Removed From DLC List The Black Commentator www.blackcommentator.com interviewed Barack Obama about his position vis-a-vis the DLC (Democratic Leadership Council) and the "New Democrats Directory" to see if he was actually a member of these groups that many feel are "trojan horses from the Republicans in the Democratic Party". Mr. Obama made clear that he was not, nor did he ever agree to be part of the DLC or NDD, and that the use of his name was done without his permission. The article explores other aspects of the candidacy of Mr. Obama and matters pertaining to America and its politics domestically and globally. 06/23/2003 (2) Nazis, 1 ; California, 0 Elaine Cassel Attorney Elaine Cassel argues that the Supreme Court, by overturning the California law that allowed public access to insurance companies that might have been involved with the Nazis, has intruded on our civil rights and will now protect nations and companies that violate human rights in the world. She also points out the new violation of our civil and legal rights in the Amirri case, when the government turned him over to the military; thus, taking away those rights that Americans keep proclaiming to the world. 06/23/2003 (2) GW Bush and the "Theory of Grotesques" . Gerry Lower GW Bush has become a "grotesque" according to Dr. Lower; his definition is based on that put forth by Sherwood Anderson, "whenever a person takes a given set of values unto himself as a truth to live and die by, ...sees himself as a personificatioin...of those values, no matter how wonderful those values might seem, one becomes a grotesque." 06/21/2003 (2) Perspectives By Incongruity: Madness in DC and Benton Harbor Sam Hamod Hamod points out some connections between the Bush behavior and its consequences and the riots in Benton Harbor, MI; some is outrage wanting to be heard, another is imitative behavior and more. 06/17/2003 (2) NeoCon Convergences Salim Muwakkil A tracing of where much of the neo con money comes from, from The Bradley Foundation that has done much devilment in the past decade. 06/15/2003 (2) Stop the FCC Now! William Safire Even William Safire demands that the FCC decision to allow media oligopolies to control all media must be stopped by the Congress; this has gone too far and is too dangerous for our democracy. 06/13/2003 (2) THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX: Facing Reality In Our Time Sam Hamod Sam Hamod proposes that we go to the General Assembly of the UN or the international court at The Hague to help redress the abuses of human and civil rights being perpetrated by the Bush admininstration in the US and in the world; to continue to work within the corrupt system in the US will be like asking the fox to protect the chicken coop. 06/09/2003 (2) VP Cheney Accused of Pressuring CIA Before War in Iraq Rupert Cornwell in DC VP Dick Cheney is accused of pressuring the CIA to lie in order to get American support and alleged "proof" of WMD to start the war in Iraq. 06/09/2003 (2) VP Cheney Accused of Pressuring CIA Before War in Iraq Rupert Cornwell in DC VP Dick Cheney is accused of pressuring the CIA to lie in order to get American support and alleged "proof" of WMD to start the war in Iraq. 06/09/2003 (2) Bush Continues Lying In the Face of Facts That Contradict Him Andrew Buncombe, in Washington, DC Bush continues lying about ties between Saddam and Al Qa'ida, even though all witnesses and captives have denied the link; One wonders what he's drinking or smoking these days. 06/08/2003 (2) The Corporazi Party: Today's Republican Party Cheryl Seal Cheryl Seal sees many parallels between the Nazi party in Germany of the Hitler era and the present Republican Party and its behavior in destroying democracy. She also cites many sources to show the genesis of her sense of history and politics. 06/07/2003 (2) Bush LIed About WMD in Iraq; Went Against Pentagon Intelligence Dana Priest and Walter Pincus Clearly, GWB went beyond the truth when he stated that there was intellgence to back up his statement that Iraq had WMD. 06/07/2003 (2) Bush Liars At the Pentagon and Do Nothing Democrats Sam Hamod, Ph.D. The Bush team inserted a non-expert "intelligence group" headed by Feith into the Pentagon, which ran parallel and actually gave more public information than the actual intelligence experts who were supposed to handle intelligence for the Pentagon and the U.S. This Feith team led us into a war based on lies. Unfortunately, the Democrats have been doing little or nothing about such an abuse of power and public information. 06/02/2003 (2) Congress Rips Off the Poor Once Again! True Majority The U.S. Congress, led by the Republican elite and the dumber than dumb, Democrats, rip off the poor once again--stealing the $400.00 tax credit promised them for each child! How long before the people revolt against this tyranny? Many wonder. 06/02/2003 (2) His Own Little Country: Little George and His Iraq Sam Hamod A little countryfied version of GW Bush's own little country in Iraq. 06/02/2003 (2) The Final Brick in the Wall: FCC, Bush, Ashcroft and Fascist Media Control Sam Hamod The FCC today put the final brick in the wall that imprisons America and the world in the control of the media giants, especially Rupert Murdoch, Faux, NBC, CBS, CNN and ABC; only God and the devil know where this new fascism of Bush, Ashcroft and the media will lead America and the world with their control of media, the courts and the U.S. government. 05/16/2003 (2) God and GW Bush Bill Keller Keller questions Bush and his religiosity--is it real, or is it pandering to the right wing and zionist crowds. 05/10/2003 (2) GWBush: From Drunk to Drunk With Power Sam Hamod and Elaine Cassel Hamod and Cassel believe President George Bush, an addictive personality, who was addicted to alcohol, has switched his addiction to power and religion; but this is dangerous for America and for the world. 05/07/2003 (2) Bush and the 77% Solution--It May Be Untrue Arianna Huffington Arianna Huffington makes clear the polls may be wrong about Bush's popularity and he may fall apart before the next election--for he trails behind what Bush I had after his war, and look what happened to him. Read on for more insights. 05/07/2003 (2) Bush Used Military As a Stage Prop: A Troubling Speech Senator Robert Byrd Senator Byrd flays GW Bush's speech on the aircraft carrier, Abraham Lincoln, for using the military as a backdrop for a political campaign speech for his 2004 presidential bid. As Senator Byrd points out, this is one of most heinous disrespects of the military by a president in U.S. history. 05/05/2003 (2) Another Rip-Off of American Workers, Cutting Pension Obligations Mary Williams Walsh Congress is considering a bill that would allow major corporations to write off billions of dollars of pension funds because a study showed that blue collar workers died earlier than white collar workers. This is the latest in a series of rip-offs by the Republican controlled congress, senate and white house. 05/05/2003 (2) Bush's Intelligence Fiasco: Not Worth The Paper It's Written On Veteran Intelligence Professional For Sanity These veterans of US intelligence believe that Bush's use of "intelligence" and the deception him and his team have used is a fiasco. Rather than listening to the CIA and FBI, the Bush team attacked both agencies, led none other than by a know nothing about foreign affairs, Paul Wolfowitz. America is looking foolish by the Bush antics. 05/05/2003 (2) Meet The Mullah Omar of Pennsylvania, Rick Santorum--That's Latin for Asshole Jeffrey St. Clair Jeffrey St. Clair sees Sen. Rick Santorum as the Mullah Omar of PA because of his rigidity, his callous homophobia, his bigoted values (or lack of them). He also attacks his boobishness further because of his neocon inability to think, his overzealous passion for Israel and his constant attacks on the First Amendment (about which he seems to know nothing). Read on.... 05/05/2003 (2) If You Want to Win an Election, Just Control the Voting Machines Thom Hatmann Thom Hartmann believes that if you control the voting machines, you'll win the election; he shows the possible fraud in the voting of Georgia where the machines wee tampered with by Republican state officials a few days before Max Cleland, a well liked senator was defeated (ironically, he lost in districts where he was strongest; other machines failed to work, after they had been allegedly "checked and repaired." 05/05/2003 (2) America: The Failed Experiment Paul Harris Paul Harris believes that American democracy is failing under the control of the Bush team and its evil undemocratic ways. 05/05/2003 (2) The Faces of Budget Cuts Bob Herbert Bob Herbert shows the human side of budget cuts--misery, pain and illness, leading to a sure death for many. T.A.N. Editor's Note: All of this pain while President Bush is out threatening other nations, killing thousands of foreign and American troops and spending more and more money on weapons of mass destruction we in America don't need, or want. SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG WITH MR. BUSH'S VALUES; HE IS MORE CONCERNED WITH KILLING THAN WITH SAVING LIVES AND PEACE. 05/04/2003 (2) Warren Buffett Attacks Executive Greed and Bush Tax Cuts Abagail Rayner in Omaha, Nebraska Warren Buffett, the dean of American investors ripped into executive greed and Bush's tax cuts, he warned both of these matters should be cleaned up before they do more damage to America and to the world. 05/04/2003 (2) GW Bush: The Little Snot, The Little Bully Sam Hamod Hamod portrays GW Bush as a "little snot, a little bully" because of his behavior in American and world politics. 05/03/2003 (2) William J. Bennett: A Freudian Perspective (from heaven) Elaine Cassel Elaine Cassel sends us a letter that Sigmund Freud wrote the "great moralist" William Bennett from Heaven; Freud was hard on Bennett and also made a few caustically true remarks about Sen. Santorum and John Ashcroft (both of whom could use some psychotherapy). 05/01/2003 (2) Pensions For Execs, Shaft For Workers Arianna Huffington Arianna Huffington makes clear that workers are getting the shaft while executives keep feeding themselves even more from the trough, pigs that they are--and it's getting worse. 04/28/2003 (2) The Language of Smoke and Mirrors: CBS, Halliburton, Cheney, Bechtel and 60 Minutes Sam Hamod In a 60 Minutes interview with heads of Halliburton, Bechtel and others, Steve Kroft showed how these companies were able to get contracts legally, but perhaps unethically. Also, Hamod wants to know how these contracts were let before any "war" was allegedly planned, while President Bush was allegedly working with the UN to "avoid a war." 04/28/2003 (2) Wall Street To Pay Large Fines David Usborne Wall Street firms were made to pay $1.4 billion dollar in fines for mileading investors over the past few years. Specifically cited also were Blodget and Grubman,two of the worst offenders; Blodget went so far as to tout a stock that he called "a piece of shit." T.A.N. Editor's Note: This fine is far less than it should have been; this is but a drop in the bucket of what investors lost. Also, tho there is a fine, investors don't get any of this money--so all the way around, investors lost and have lost confidence in Wall Street. This settlement doesn't prove a thing--this is just another publicity scam to paper things over until they sucker the public back into the Wall St. markets. 04/26/2003 (2) American Airlines Told, Don't Discriminate Sam Hamod American Airlines was told by D.O.T. not to continue its discrimination against Arabs, Muslims and South Asians;it faces stiff fines if it continues. United and Continental were also warned about this bad behavior. 04/24/2003 (2) Taxes and Debts in the US and CA James O. Goldsborough America and California both face huge debts, how they'll solve their problems is important. Goldsborough suggests the best way is to continue the progressive income tax. 04/22/2003 (2) PBS Hoodwinks the US Public Sam Hamod Hamod points out how NPR is hoodwinking the US public through such unprofessional reports as those of Judith Miller who talked unprofessonial and unproven nonsense about finding a "silver bullet" scientist to prove Iraq had poison weapons. But he also points out that other NPR shows have gotten progressively weaker leading up to, and including coverage of the Iraq invasion by the Bush team. 04/22/2003 (2) Hollywood Revives McCarthyist Climate By Silencing and Sacking War Critics Andrew Gumbel in LA Hollywood is in the grip of a new McCarthyism through the sacking and censoring of the anti-war critics; Hollywood is not as liberal or brave as it pretends to be. 04/21/2003 (2) Leading US Economic Indicators Drop Associated Press US economic indicators dropped again, showing a weakening in the US economy for now and in the future. 04/21/2003 (2) Free Speech Under Threat in the US Tim Robbins Tim Robbins makes clear that freedom of speech is under attack in America. Those who speak in dissent against the administration are being called "traitors" and also losing jobs, speaking engagements and are being hurt and harassed in a variety of ways by the mass media and other sources. 04/21/2003 (2) Give Us Back Our Democracy Edward Said American democracy is being stolen while Bush and his cronies take over both international and domestic matters without peer review, without question and with insufficient protest. Bush has used the foreign wars to keep people's minds off the taking away of American civil rights and democracy. 04/21/2003 (2) Bush II and Clinton,, Some Reflections Sam Hamod Sam Hamod points out that presidents Clinton and Bush have done little ot help America or the world, in fact, they have been detrimental to America. If we continue with men like these, our moral leadership, our democracy, everything will be lost. 04/21/2003 (2) Black Atlanta College Is On Death Watch David M. Halbfinger Morris Brown College, a major Black college is on death watch economically; if it goes down, it will be a real loss to Blacks and to the society. 04/21/2003 (2) The Sarcastic "Daily Show" Does Bush and His Crookedness Susan J. Douglas The Daily Show has done some spoofs on Bush, in this case, there is such incredulity about the crooked deals Bush and his administration do that even the comedy has to stretch to make this evil seem funny because Bush's pronouncements and those of his team are so absurd in reality. 04/18/2003 (2) Talkin' 'Bout My Generation Laurie Manis Laurie Manis points out that instead of something good coming out of 9/11, we have been steadily losing our democracy and our freedom of speech under the fascist regime of GW Bush, Ashcroft, Rummy and Cheney. She praises Helen Thomas, Senator Byrd, Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon for standing up for the right of free speech and dissent in America. We must never fear to speak our mind, if we become that afraid, we shall lose our democracy. 04/18/2003 (2) Bush as Messiah James Heflin GW Bush imagines that he's doing the work of God to "cleanse the earth" of evil. The fundamentalists have distorted the Bible, the words of God and the Baptist Church so much--yet many of the true believers don't realize this; Bush is one of the leaders in this distortion. This new fundamentalism, whether it be Bush or Bin Laden is dangerous to us all. 04/18/2003 (2) Deception About Iraq From the White House and US Media Sam Hamod The American public is being lied to by the White House and the major American media about the realities of the Iraq war and its aftermath. Fortunately, some of us have foreign sources that help us find out the real truth of what has happened and is happening at present (not the santized version the American media is passing off as "news"). 04/16/2003 (2) On The Survival of Libraries Allen Cohen Allen Cohen makes clear that the survival of libraries is essential to the survival of civilization in all of its manifestations --whether it be overseas in Baghdad, Spain or in Oakland, CA. At this time, when we must be informed, our libraries are essential to not only our democracy, but for our survival; if we close them or destroy them, our lives and our civilizations will rapidly decline. 04/08/2003 (2) Journalist's Evidence That U.S. Bombed Market Is Ignored by U.S. Press FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting) American media, from the NY Times to NPR radio and all the major TV networks in America are ignoring the proof, the evidence that was substantiated by British reporters on the gro und in Baghdad that the bomb/missile that hit a market and killed scores of people was made by Raytheon in Texas, USA and used only by the U.S. military. Our military was guilty of this killing, but NPR's Talk of the Nation and other sources continue to play it off as "We don't know and may never know". Nonsense, the truth is right there, but our media keeps refusing to let it be known; they cover up the horror of what killing and maiming we are doing. 04/07/2003 (2) America's Jail Population Hits 2 million Rupert Conwell in Washington,DC America's prison population rose to 2 million, the highest per capita in the world. Many of those in prison are in for minor drug offenses, which sounds ridiculous--but prison is a big industry in America. Also, an estimated 4.8 per cent of all black males are in jail, compared to 1.7 per cent of Hispanics and 0.6 per cent of whites. Something is wrong with this system in America. 04/07/2003 (2) 8 Things Everyone Should Know About the U.S. Media Faculty and Students at the U. of Minnesota and SUNY-Purchase in NY An overview of what's wrong and why with American media. There is also a good list of alternative news sites, books and other excellent sources for understanding U.S. media. This is an excellent article; everyone should read this piece. 04/04/2003 (2) The Thick Fog of War on American Television Norman Solomon Norman Solomon points out that American television often gives you a skewed and inaccurate picture of what is really going on in the Iraq invasion. Independent writers and observers are often more accurate because their reports are not "sanitized" by the networks or by the U.S. Central Command. He also redefines terrorism to include the American assault on Iraq and its people and its cities. 04/03/2003 (2) Critical Media Voices Silenced in America FAIR Mass media voices that have been critical of the Bush led war against Iraq have been censored by being either fired (in the case of Peter Arnett), dropped even though the ratings were highest on the network (MSNBC-Phil Donahue), stopped from covering the war, Hauglie and Flynn or the site has been dropped by the hosting company, www.YellowTimes.org. This seriously affects the American public and its ability to get the news in an objective fashion. Incidentally, Al Jazeera's English website has been hacked so much that the page is no longer available; even their broadcast was interrupted in the past. TAN Editor's Note: America is undergoing a new form of fascism led by the warmongering groups, often led by "chickenhawks" like Bush and Ashcroft, while denying the rights of freedom of speech to those with whom they disagree. 04/03/2003 (2) "Apology" from Dixie Chicks's Natalie Maines to "President" Bush Natalie Maines Natalie Maines' sarcastic "apology" to President Bush; she laces into him and declares her right as an American for true freedom of speech, not the GWSpeak we're so tired of. 04/02/2003 (2) Bush's Ranch Was a Pig Farm and a Political Prop Cheryl Seal President Bush's "ranch" was actually a converted pig-farm that he bought and developed at the same time he was stealing the election in Florida and the Supreme Court. The whole "ranch" thing was like a stage prop to make him look like a real working fella, a true man of the earth--but the opposite was true, he hung out at the country club area, shooting area and partied a lot. 04/02/2003 (2) Corporate America's Corruption Goes On Arianna Huffington Arianna Huffington points out the corruption that is ongoing in American corporate life; as she says, "It's monkey business as usual on Wall Street." And yet, they want the world to invest? How ridiculous can you get? 03/27/2003 (2) Richard Perle Resigns Under Fire Robert Burns and Sam Hamod Richard Perle, a prime hawk who helped lead us into attacks on Iraq, Grenada and Libya, has resigned under a cloud of unethical behavior and other possible financial wrongdoings. Many in Washington,DC will be happy to see his hawkish leadership gone from the scene; the question now is how much will his resignation buffer problems for Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Cheney. 03/26/2003 (2) Protesting Once the Fighting Starts James O. Goldsborough Speaking against a war you feel is unjust is fine in a democracy and at times it is one of the best things you can do in order to bear witness against the war. Republicans seem to have forgotten that Freedom of Speech is one of America's fundamental democratic rights, especially in light of their criticisms of Sen. Daschles' criticism of Bush's failure of diplomacy and his rush to war. 03/08/2003 (2) Bush's Insult to America's Journalists and the UN Sam Hamod President Bush insulted American journalists in his phony "news conference" last week; he ran from Helen Thomas and her hard questions. Bush scripted the questions and who would get to ask them. Instead of standing up and walking out if Helen Thomas was not seated in her proper place of respect, the "journalists" gave in and allowed Bush to cow them; they should have walked out on him so that his "news conference" would have collapsed. He would have had to give in or to implode; either way, it would have been better than going on with this immoral charade; Bush and the fourth estate lost that night. THE ONLY HERO WAS HELEN THOMAS FOR SHOUTING AT HIM AT THE END OF THE NON-NEWS-CONFERENCE. 03/07/2003 (2) Easter Baskets, Jellybeans and GRENADES! Lion & Lamb The pro-war groups have invaded even the sanctity of Easter and children's lives by putting war materials, i.e., a bombed out military headquarters, hand grenades and other things in children's Easter Baskets at major stores. We must protest against making America into a full scale war society; places to write are presented in the article. 03/07/2003 (2) MSNBC's Double Standard On Free Speech: No Anti-Bush Allowed FAIR 03/06/2003 (2) The Need For A Latino-Islamic Public Affairs Council Ernesto Cienfuegos Mr. Cienfuegos calls for a Latino-Islamic Public Affairs Council to represent the truth about the Middle East, Spain, Latinos and Islam--all of which are being misrepresented today in the media and history books. Too often zionists are creating lies that lead people astray. 03/06/2003 (2) U.S. Deficit Spinning Out of Control Edmund Andrews The federal deficit is quickly spinning out of control and the Bush administration has shown no signs of knowing how to fix this disasterous situation. 03/02/2003 (2) The Abuse of Our Prison System: Corrections, Inc. American Radio Works The profit from the corrections industry has driven many private contractors into the corrections industry which has helped to shape laws that make imprisonment easier and worse for the individual American citizen, especially those who are now more and more becoming the victims of racial profiling. Somehow, the system has become a profit producer, rather than a reforming institution that was meant to help the lawbreaker reform and go straight; greed always wins out. This is shameful. 02/26/2003 (2) 2 Men Driving Bush Into War Ed Vulliamy, The Observer Bush is moving toward war being pushed by Karl Rover and Wolfowitz, two men who are uneducated about the world and have very poor understandings of other cultures and religions; Bush follows them loyally. 02/24/2003 (2) Democratic Candidates Speak Against War---FINALLY!!! Terry M. Neal Democratic candidates for president finally began speaking out with anti-war rhetoric as they vie for their party's nomination. TAN Editors note; FINALLY! IT'S ABOUT TIME, AFTER LIEBERMAN AND GEPHARDT BOWED DOWN SO FAST AND KISSED BUSH'S FEET. DEFINITELY, WE CANNOT SUPPORT LIEBERMAN OR GEPHARDT, THEY'RE LIABLE TO FOLD AGAIN WHEN THE PRESSURE IS ON (no matter how much they say they won't). 02/24/2003 (2) Bush's Visit To My School Sam, Mike and Others Who See It Coming This little tale speaks of Bush and Ashcroft's visit to one of our little schools. Beware of asking questions of one who thinks he is God (or maybe Bush and Ashcroft are co-Gods?) 02/24/2003 (2) National Poll: More than Half of the American people Oppose a New Israeli Aid Package Council For National Interest More than half of the American public opposes a new aid package for Israel. 02/19/2003 (2) The Bush Cabal Gives The World The Finger Al Martin The Bush cabal has scared Americans with threats of "terrorism" and simultaneously given the "finger" to the UN and its desire for peace, not war. Blair is facing a nation where over 2/3 of the people are against a war and Russia, China, Germany and France have also stood against Bush's design for war. 02/18/2003 (2) Mr. Bush's Liberal Problem Nicholas Kristof President Bush seems to do everything upside down; as if he wants to be an idealist but ends up making stupid decisions on matters that affect foreign policy, the economy and the world. 02/15/2003 (2) Time For A 3rd American Revolution? We Want Our Country Back Gordon Solberg Many Americans are dissatisfied with what Bush has done to America and are calling for a 3rd revolution in order to take the country back from what they consider to be "electoral thugs" and international warmongers. Not only that, but Bush is destroying the country from within with his disasterous economic policies that benefit the rich and destroy the rest of the populace; nothing is working and everything is breaking down while he's focused on Iraq with a myopic megalomania. 02/15/2003 (2) U.S. Space Shuttle Hit By Mysterious Purple Streak Sabin Russell Seven minutes before it disintegrated, Columbia 7 Space Shuttle was hit by a strange purple streak. U.S. Government investigators are looking at photos taken by an amateur astronomer of the event. At this point, no more is known; however, the government is keeping this matter quiet and under wraps. Incidentally, the photographer had tried to reach NASA through their hotlines, but to no avail; he had to reach NASA through a former astronaut. 02/15/2003 (2) Secret Draft of Patriot 2 Act from Ashcroft; Charles Lewis and Adam Mayle This secret document was obtained by the Center for Public Integrity, against the wishes of the Justice Department and John Ashcroft; it lays out plans for even more abuse of civil rights in America and in the world. This is a new and dangerous precedent this Bush administration is trying to set. Yet, when asked about this document, Justice officials told Senate Judiciary members that no such plan or document existed. Something is vitally wrong in our government if they no longer work for the people, but for their own party's power. 02/13/2003 (2) American Civil LIberties Union Says Patriot 2 Bill Infringes on Civil Rights ACLU The Patriot Act infringed upon civil liberties in the USA, the new Patriot 2 bill being introduced by Ashcroft is even worse and takes away more civil rights and protections for all. 02/10/2003 (2) A Failure of Skepticism in the Media on Powell Speeches FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting) The U.S. media failed to be critical and skeptical of Colin Powell's speeches of late, especially that given to the UN last week. Mr. Powell often asserts and alleges, but offers no real critically accepted proof; the media has let the American public down by not being more critical in its reporting and questions. 02/08/2003 (2) Center For Public Integrity Exposes Patriot Act Charles Lewis, Director of Center Ashcroft and friends are preparing a far worse Patriot Act 2 that will most likely be unleased during Bush's war on Iraq; it will destroy even more American civil and legal rights. The Center for Public Integrity obtained a confidential draft copy of this new proposed legislation that had been kept secret; it was further exposed on Bill Moyers' show, NOW, on PBS-TV on Friday, Feb. 7, 2003. 02/08/2003 (2) North Dakota Found To Be Harboring Nuclear Missiles Portside North Dakota has been found to be harboring nuclear missiles; this may cause another major international incident. Most North Dakotans are shocked to hear this and other states in America are worried because these missiles could reach any major city in America in an instant. As one state official put it, "How could this happen here without our knowledge." 01/31/2003 (2) Brookings Scholar Detained by INS George Lardner, Jr. The INS, for insufficient cause, detained a Brookings Institute Scholar, Dr.Haidar, because he was from Pakistan. Fortunately, for Dr. Haidar, the Pakistani Foreign Minister,Khurshid Kasuri, who was visiting Washington on an official visit, brought the matter up to an embarrassed Ashcroft and INS. This shows the madness wherein the INS thinks immigration is the key to national security; unfortunately, too few in the administration don't realize this is counterproductive to catching terrorists by the terrorizing methods they use on aliens, naturalized citizens and visitors in the U.S.A. 01/29/2003 (2) Are Stock Analysts Looking The Other Way? Don Bauder Though there has been pressure from regulators, all is not clear in the stock market or in the behavior of stock analysts. Though there have been some "sell" statements, they are far less than the buy and hold statements from analysts. We still haven't broken the hold on the relationships between the analysts and the underwriting side of the Wall Street firms. 01/28/2003 (2) The Rhetoric of Hollow Signs and Pleasing Symbols, or Bush is Not To Be Believed Sam Hamod Bush's, State of the Union, speech was little more than hollow rhetoric, flag-waving and assertions without proof in terms of his budget, connections between Iraq and Al Queda and the imminent threat by Iraq. Bush also ignored his failed attempts in North Korea and Venezuela; he also failed to give any hard evidence that Iraq has weapons of mass destruction--but the more he talked, the more one realized that the U.S. has the biggest supply of weapons of mass destruction in the world. 01/28/2003 (2) Media Look Away As Democracy Is Traded Away: What the U.S. Media Won't Tell You Rachel Coen The American media often keeps important stories away from the American people because they may put "big business" in a bad light; this happened recently in Quito, Ecuador during a meeting of the trade ministers of the Americas who were working on a Free Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA). Democracy is slipping away in the media and in our trade policies; yet, the American people now little about this, or the WTO or NAFTA. 01/28/2003 (2) Making Sure Blitzer's Defense Line is the Last Word Jim Naureckas Dr. Helen Caldicott, MD, proved that spent uranium shells, used by the U.S. in the last Iraq war, causes cancer; Wolf Blitzer tried to have the last word to defend the U.S. Defense Department, but he looked foolish by trying to deny an undeniaable, scientific truth. Too often American mass media has become the handmaiden of the Bush administration. 01/28/2003 (2) Helen Thomas' View of Bush As "Worst President" Famed presidential journalist, Helen Thomas, calls Bush, "The worst president in all of American history." She also points that Democrats cower before him, with cowardice. She is also upset that we're trying to spread "democracy" with bombs,not peace. 01/27/2003 (2) Pentagon Eyes Mass Graves For U.S. Soldiers Killed in Iraq War Greg Seigle In a cruel analysis, which shows the fear U.S.military planners have about a real war in Iraq, there is talk of mass graves for U.S. soldiers who might be contaminated by poison or biological weapons. Rumsfeld brushed it off by saying, "Not everyone is going to agree with everything we do." EDITORS NOTE FROM todaysalternativenews.com: THIS WOULD BE FAIRER IF BUSH AND RUMSFELD WENT OVER WITH THE FIRST WAVE OF AMERICAN TROOPS IN THEIR ATTACK ON IRAQ. 01/21/2003 (2) Cold in Washington,DC and in Bush's Heart John Jackson A veteran's interpretation of the anti-war march in Washington, DC on Jan. 18. He also deals with the motives behind Bush's war and the fact that "Bush and his evil gang" have never been to war themselves. 01/21/2003 (2) There's Something Happening Here William Rivers Pitt An eyewitness report on the anti-war rally in Washington, DC of Jan. 18, 2003, that shows the cross-section of America who attended and what this witnessing attested to morally and politically. 01/20/2003 (2) Vox Populi Jan. 18, 2003 San Francisco Dr. Mike Byron An eyewitness account of the variety of people who protested Bush's desired war with Iraq, on Jan. 18, 2003 in San Francisco. 01/20/2003 (2) VETERANS FOR PEACE IN SAN FRANCISCO; 1/18/03 Ramona Griffin Byron An eyewitness report on the anti-war protest in San Francisco from a member of Veterans For Peace on Jan. 18, 2003. 01/16/2003 (2) Chicago Passes Anti-War Resolution Chicago Tribune Chicago made history today by passing an anti-war resolution; this in the face of Bush and his minions who continue beating the drums of war when America is facing its worst economic crisis in history. Chicago has once again shown its independence from the federal government and that it is once again, "the city of big shoulders", independent and strong. 01/16/2003 (2) Monsters, Inc.: The :Pentagon Plan to Create Mutant "Super Soldiers" Chris Floyd Rumsfeld and his minions in the Pentagon are trying to create doped up, "super soldiers" so that the human element of our army will be lost for the sake of "victory." This is a most immoral decision. 01/16/2003 (2) Some Interesting Comments From VP Dick Cheney of Halliburton various sources When he was the President of Halliburton, VP Dick Cheney made comments that are most revealing in the context of the administration's desire to declare war on Iraq. You'll note he has changed his tune, shot himself in the foot and is not alone in this corruption. 01/16/2003 (2) Spitzer Defeated By The Gangs of New York Arianna Huffington Eliot Spitzer, for all the media coverage of his victories, has done little to really clean up the Wall Street corruption; his settlements have given too little for so much crime. His motives for accepting these defeats is questioned by Ms. Huffington. 01/16/2003 (2) Organized Labor Forms National Anti-War Organization Report from Labor Coaltion Against the Iraq War On Jan. 11, 2003, a large group of labor unions organized, and continue to grow their group, against a war with Iraq. |
