-Caveat Lector- FREEDOM NOW NETWORK - October 30, 2000 c READ BELOW - YOU DO HAVE CHOICES!!! by Dot Bibee, FREEDOM NOW NETWORK ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) The following article from Pat Buchanan's web page "Voters Denied True Choices" is true but only for those folks who don't get out of the house and have only the "mainstream" media to listen to. According to the "mainstream" media, Pat Buchanan is not worth even "interviewing on TV" much less letting you know that all last week he was in California conducting his campaign. We are treated constantly with remarks make by Gore and Bush on their campaigns as if these remarks are important (mostly criticizing each other). The "mainstream" media, I hope you have noticed, NEVER ask Gore and Bush anything about Abortion, Immigration, the War in Israel, the bombing of the USS Cole, the policies of the United States toward Iraq (bombing and starving little children who are suffering the most), and the High Oil Prices with winter coming on and many will probably be cold because they can't afford these high prices. OH NO, that would make AMERICANS THINK too much. It is evident they just want to treat you to the mundane and stupid. Watch for yourselves...and I am not the only one who is fed up with the media's coverage. Heaven Help all of us for the next 8 DAYS. Also PRAY for America since Congress has extended their session this week to vote for the Appropriation Bills they should have passed months ago. Government Fiscal Year used to end in June - but Congress kept extending it until now it ends in September. The government is now in a NEW fiscal year! PLEASE go to the following article and READ it -- especially if you THINK you HAVE to vote for Gush or Bore. If you still want to vote for either after reading this article, then you are hopeless. You probably haven't read down this far anyhow. <A HREF="http://www.gopatgo2000.com/library/default.asp?id=190">Click here: Buchanan Foster -- home</A> http://www.gopatgo2000.com/library/default.asp?id=190 Thursday, October 26, 2000 Voters Denied True Choices, Buchanan Says in San Francisco by: John Wildermuth, San Francisco Chronicle ====================================== YOU DO HAVE CHOICES - ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU HAVE A COMPUTER - AND YOU HAVE A MOUTH TO INFLUENCE YOUR FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND CO-WORKERS First, I will tell you the choices I had to make. John Duncan, Jr. is the Congressman from my district. He is the son of former Congressman John Duncan, Sr., who was once my Sunday School teacher. He belongs to Ron Paul's Liberty Committee. OH, DOT, you say, surely you are going to VOTE for him!! NO, I didn't. WHY? Because, for one, he is the Chairman of the House Transportation Committee and as such has collected $$$$ in his many terms served in Congress. With HIS money he is probably going to be reelected. I also have dealt with him on many issues. One of the worst, he was responsible for helping a NGO organization turn over a mountain to the Federal government to be made a part of the Cherokee National Forest near Etowah, TN (between Knoxville and Chattanooga) -- can't think of the name of the mountain right now. When I wrote to him and complained, he wanted to meet with me because as he said he was sure he could convince me that this was the right thing to do. I wrote back and told him that if he could show me in the Constitution where it was legal for the federal government to own a mountain, I would meet with him. He never answered. He has not answered many of my letters. He has also sent me back MANY generic letters instead of answering the issue in the letters. And, yes, I following the protocol in writing to Congress, dealing with current issues and current bills in one page on one subject. This should work, but it does not!!! Yes, he votes with Ron Paul on many issues, but someone else deserves the chance to represent the people of Tennessee and the nation. I didn't vote for Frist or Thompson for the Senate, either. So, who did I choose to vote for Congress. (I have already voted since Knox County, TN has early voting.) I voted for Kevin Rowland, 865-681-8567 [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.metaculture.net/rowland4congress 1420 O'Leary Lane, Maryville, TN 37803-3124 . Following is an important PRESS RELEASE sent to me by Bill Cole of Chattanooga (after I had already voted) which is VERY important. OCTOBER 20, 2000 - ROWLAND ENDORSED BY TWO PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES MARYVILLE, TN - Libertarian Congressional candidate Kevin Rowland can make a rare claim of being endorsed by presidential candidates from two political parties. "Of course, I'm supported by Harry Browne, Libertarian presidential candidate," Rowland said. "I've met him a few times, most recently at our state convention in August when he expressed his thanks and support for my campaign." The other presidential candidate who has publicly supported Rowland is Howard Phillips of the Constitution Party. Rowland said he spent a couple of hours with Phillips who met with members of the Constitution Party in Blount County this week. "Mr. Phillips and I may not agree on every issue, but we did agree that our organizations should work together when it comes to battling an intrusive and wasteful federal government," Rowland said. "The Constitution Party is typically more conservative than the Libertarian Party," Rowland said, "but Mr. Phillips applauded me for standing up against government waste and holding politicians in power accountable for their actions." In a written statement Howard Phillips also thanked Rowland for "telling the truth and seeking election" in the 2nd District. Howard Phillips is making his third run for the presidency. He can be found on the Internet at: http://www.phillips200.com. Harry Browne was the Libertarian candidate for president in 1996 and again in 2000. His website is located at http://www.harrybrowne2000.org. YES - You, too, can make the RIGHT decision also and you do NOT need the mainstream media to help you. First GO to the Center for Responsive Politics web page -- and there you will find the truth about the incumbents in this election and whether or not they have been bought off by the global corporations (most of them are multinational). Example: IBM is building a new factory in China to employ 10,000 Chinese. All of this information is on their web page. You owe it to yourself to check on your elected officials. Sign up for their ALERTS while you are there. Today's alert is about soft money and how it is still flowing to the two MAJOR parties.

Ford Jr (D) incumbent Oh, you say, the TV media gives us a lot of useful information. Do they? Sure. National TV is giving you a lot of information about Hillary and Lazio running for the Senate in New York? (Mostly barbs of them attacking each other -- and not discussing important issues!) Why is this of interest to people in other states? Some news about this would be interesting -- probably -- but why doesn't the TV media tell you the whole truth -- instead of just part of the truth? Here is what you will find from CRP about the Senate Race in New York. Wouldn't you love to see John Clifton interviewed? 2000 RACE: NEW YORK SENATE Rick A. Lazio (R) Raised: $29,072,817 Spent: $24,400,108 Cash on hand: $6,526,544 Last Report: 9/30/00 PACs: $1,864,657 (6.4%) Individuals: $26,843,729 (92.3%) Candidate: $0 - Other: $364,431 (1.3%) Hillary Rodham Clinton (D) Raised: $21,009,116 Spent: $18,361,921 Cash on hand: $2,647,693 Last Report: 9/30/00 PACs: $725,555 (3.5%) Individuals: $20,055,751 (95.5%) Candidate: $0 - Other: $227,810 (1.1%) Jeffrey E.

Feel free to distribute or cite this material, but please credit the Center for Responsive Politics. ===================== So, the next time you see Hillary and Lazio on a National TV news report, write them a comment telling them that they are biased and are not reporting the Senate Race in New York fairly. Between now and November 7, watching TV should be made with a critical eye instead of absorbing these newscasts as fact or even close to the entire truth. Tell them also that you are not interested in the budget surplus which doesn't exist in the first place. You do have the resources to make a choice for yourself. Your choices can be made using the truth instead of a lot of media half-truths. **********_____________ *_____________ ____________________ ____________________ ____________________ FREEDOM NOW NETWORK %Dot Bibee ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Knoxville, TN Ph/FAX (865) 577-7011 <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
