Is there anyone left who don't think the invasion and occupation of Iraq was about oil?
If so, read this.

Bush wants to give away more land to his oil buddies and destroy the environment in the process.
Why isn't he being impeached?

Call a truck!
John McSame is truly insane!
He wants to build 45 new nuclear reactors!

An attack on Iran that will cause the Middle East to explode, possibly trigger attacks within the U.S., and push oil to  $300 a barrel is on the insane BushCo team agenda!

Check these videos from Robert Greenwald. Can John McSame really be worse than we thought?

 

 

Utah Phillips, troubadour and storyteller of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), passes at 73

Singer/Songwriter David Rovics on Utah

How can Bush talk about "appeasement" of Hitler when his grandfather, Prescott Bush, helped the German dictator rise to power (along with Henry Ford, of course).
Listen to a moron, right wing talk show host get reamed by Chris Matthews (could the guy sound any more hysterical?).

impeachment off the table for these lying, warmongering, justice obstructing torturers?
Impeachment is the least of what BushCo deserves; they're war criminals and belong in the World Court to be tried as such.

Save MumiaFREE MUMIA!
New link!
Mumia Abu-Jamal has been on Death Row since 1981 after being convicted in a  frame-up trial for the murder of a police officer. The Philadelphia cops, very few of whom were on the force 26 years ago, are in a frenzy to have  the ex-Black Panther strapped to the executioner's gurney.
Mumia has international support and is the Sacco and Vanzetti case of this generation.

BushCo Pals Get Rich;
We Pay the Cost
It's not a government; it's a racket!

Surprise!
Under Bush, the rich are getting richer
And, check out the Waltons, the really big money. Not one of them "worked" for their loot (it was all inherited) and they get wealthier by destroying community businesses, paying crappy wages, closing their stores rather than unionize, and selling sweatshop goods produced overseas.

Where does the wealth of the world go? Not to end poverty and disease; not to save the environment but for
War!

One Trillion Dollars for War While People Starve
Let's fire the rulers of the World! All of them!
They've screwed everything up!

more civilian deaths!

2. Peter will not open messages with attachments unless he's expecting it, and will not read messages sent from re-mailers.
3. If all you have are insults, don't bother. There's nothing you can say that will hurt his feelings or make him feel badly. He's heard it all before.
Reasonable opinions welcome.
4. DON'T SEND PETER EVERY FORWARD YOU SEND TO YOUR LIST!
