Criminalize Organic Farming? EXCUSE ME?! BILLS: HR 875 and S 425

Miracles Take Time, can America wait.

By BOB HERBERT

Barack Obama has only been president for six weeks, but there is a surprising amount of ire, anger, even outrage that he hasn’t yet solved the problems of the U.S. economy, that he hasn’t saved us from the increasingly tragic devastation wrought by the clownish ideas of right-wing conservatives and the many long years of radical Republican misrule.

The US Highways: Literally, No Free Ride!

By Daniel Schulman and James Ridgeway

Why you could soon be paying Wall Street investors, Australian bankers, and Spanish builders for the privilege of driving on American roads.


The one thing everyone agreed on was that the Indiana deal was just a prelude to a host of such efforts to come. Across the nation, there is now talk of privatizing everything from the New York Thruway to the Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey turnpikes, as well as of inviting the private sector to build and operate highways and bridges from Alabama to Alaska. More than 20 states have enacted legislation allowing public-private partnerships, or P3s, to run highways. Robert Poole, the founder of the libertarian Reason Foundation and a longtime privatization advocate, estimates that some $25 billion in public-private highway deals are in the works—a remarkable figure given that as of 1991, the total cost of the interstate highway system was estimated at $128.9 billion.

NONE DARE CALL IT CONSPIRACY. Truth about the Money Lenders

by Gary Allen, 1971

Economics professor Stuart Crane notes that there are two means used to collateralize loans to governments and kings. Whenever a business firm borrows big money its creditor obtains a voice in management to protect his investment. Like a business, no government can borrow big money unless willing to surrender to the creditor some measure of sovereignty as collateral. Certainly, international bankers who have loaned hundreds of billions of dollars to governments around the world command considerable influence in the policies of such governments. But the ultimate advantage that the creditor has over the government or ruler is the threat that if the borrower steps out of line the banker can finance an enemy or rival and can even create an enemy by such means. Therefore, if you want to stay in the king-financing business, it is wise to have an enemy or a rival waiting in the wings to unseat every ruler to whom you lend. If the king does'nt have an enemy, you must create one. Read more...


John F. Kennedy vs The Federal Reserve. Guess Who Won?




On June 4, 1963, a virtually unknown Presidential decree, Executive Order 11110, was signed with the authority to basically strip the Federal Reserve Bank of its power to loan money to the United States Federal Government at interest. With the stroke of a pen, President Kennedy declared that the privately owned Federal Reserve Bank would soon be out of business. The Christian Law Fellowship has exhaustively researched this matter through the Federal Register and Library of Congress. We can now safely conclude that this Executive Order has never been repealed, amended, or superceded by any subsequent Executive Order. In simple terms, it is still valid.

US Discriminatory Immigration Policies Toward Haitians

Stephen Lendman

Haitians began arriving in South Florida about 50 years ago, but were denied the same rights and treatment as more favored immigrants like Europeans. Fleeing repressive dictatorships hardly mattered during years under "Papa" and "Baby Doc" Duvalier or when military dictatorships ran the country.In September 1963, the first boatload claiming persecution arrived but were denied asylum and deported. Decades later, it's the same. After a 1991 coup deposed President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, thousands of Haitians fled to America. Most were intercepted at sea and sent home while around 300 were detained at Guantanamo because tests showed they were HIV positive.

Poll Finds U.S. Muslims Thriving, but Not Content

By LAURIE GOODSTEIN

A Gallup poll of Muslims in the United States has found that they are far more likely than people in Muslim countries to see themselves as thriving.

In fact, the only countries where Muslims are more likely to see themselves as thriving are Saudi Arabia and Germany, according to the poll.

And yet, within the United States, Muslims are the least content religious group, when compared with Jews, Mormons, Protestants and Roman Catholics.

Gallup researchers say that is because the largest segment of American Muslims are African-Americans... Read more...

Dr. Michael Eric Dyson vs Pat Buchanan: A Nation of Cowards



Prof. Dyson defends Atty. General Eric Holder on his statement that America is a nation of cowards when it comes to discussing Race relations. Both Pat Buchanan and the guest host of Hardball brought to light, in their position to Atty. Generals Holder's comments, that white America is either clueless or so racist in their world view that they believe that the Black community is in the condition that it is in because it is inferior or because of a genetic flaw.

This is the cruxes of the issue when it comes to race. Blacks have not, for the most part pushed the issue of Racial inequality and inequity. Of course there are freedom fighters like The Honorable Minister Farrakhan, Rev. Al Sharpton, Rev. Jesse Jackson who have exposed the racial inequality and inequity. They have all been vilified and demonized by the white media. Other Black elected officials, intellectuals, and professionals have grossed over the issues of race, convincing the masses of Blacks that race relations have improved, with phrases like; we have come along way, but we still have a long way to go.

How far have Blacks come in America? There is an old saying, "The more things change the more they stay the same." There is another little known saying, "Things are change so they can stay the same." This is the situation with race relations.

The Black nation is now more in danger of extinction than ever before. We suffer all across the board; health care, economics, family, education and the list goes on. This is not because the Black community is inferior, lazy, immoral, this is do to the historical injustice, inequality and inequity that the Black community has suffered since being brought here as slaves. Slavery still exist today, it has be morphed, altered, and modified by social engineers, government policies, public relations or propaganda machines called advertising firms to keep the Black community chasing the illusion that one day we will be equal in America.

Freedom, justice and equality will only come about for the Black community when we unite, pull our resources and do for self. As long as we continue to rely on government, believe that time will make things better or/and rely on the charity of white people, we will continue to go down the road of destruction.
