why can't/won't fellow Americans notice/acknowlege the complicity of our
divisive unfocused division?
why do we insist on otherwise needless mission of confusion to sabotage our
unity efficacy?
why are we mesmerized by our own dying
hysterical paralysis
like deer in the eys of headlights
we stand complacent awaiting our demise
when our salvation is so amazingly simple
but for our complicity

Seven Avoidance Indicators
By Ralph Nader
If the Obamites do not act now when the political time is
ripest, to put into motion forces of deterrence and prevention, the casino
capitalists of tomorrow will again be able to de-stabilize our economy.

Obama's Economic Saviour Savaged as Keating Lets Rip
By Peter Hartcher
In sum, Tim Geithner is a gigantic fool, the IMF the gun that
can't shoot straight, Alan Greenspan a bungler. The big US banks were run by
the greedy and the hopeless, the Australian banks by counterhopping clerks.
It's a world of many villains. And only one hero.

The US Is Facing a Weimar Moment
By Robert Freeman
The devastating collapse of the economy after eight years of
Republican rule has left the leadership, policies, and ideology of the right
utterly discredited. But, as was the case with Germany in 1919, Republicans do
not intend to allow the new government to succeed. They will do everything they
can to undermine it. If they are successful, the U.S. may yet go the way of
Weimar Germany.

Obama's No Socialist. I Should Know.
By Billy Wharton
Socialists know that Barack Obama is not one of us. Not only is
he not a socialist, he may in fact not even be a liberal. Socialists understand
him more as a hedge-fund Democrat -- one of a generation of neoliberal
politicians firmly committed to free-market policies.

Obedience to Authority in America
A Different Kind of Revolution:
By Mike Whitney
We're at war, and the enemy is not the government per se, but
the super-rich corporatists that run the government and who prevent the economy

Israel Lobby Humiliates Obama Administration
By Uri Avnery
The full meaning of this episode should not escape anyone. It
was the first test of strength of the lobby in the new Obama era. And in this
test, the lobby came out with flying (blue-and-white) colours. The
administration was publicly humiliated.

The State That Tolerates No Criticism
How Israel Gives Jews a Bad Name
By SAUL LANDAU
Most Jews I know get little pleasure from the existence of
Israel; just the opposite. They feel disgusted by the behavior of their tribal
kin toward Palestinians.

Neo-Fascist Britain
Mindless Jingoism Supporting Wars of Imperial Conquest
By Mark Brougham
The hysterical smear campaign targeting the Luton protesters
has been orchestrated by the establishment-controlled media to deter others
(and in particular, Muslims) from speaking out against the crimes of the state.
Protesting against armed aggression by your country is incumbent on all decent
citizens - it is an utter disgrace that a small group of British Muslims were
left to carry the torch for human rights and international law.

Evo Morales : Let Me Chew My Coca Leaves:
For the past eight years, the millions of us who maintain the

Robert Scheer: Socialism Without a Soul: Newt Gingrich is
right:
"It is European socialism transplanted to Washington." How else
to describe an economy in which the government controls the entire financial
center and is now supplying life support for the auto industry? That's on top
of the existing socialist economy run by the military-industrial complex,
which, thanks to George W. Bush, now absorbs upward of 60 percent of the
non-entitlement federal budget.

"World's Oldest Democracy": The Myth & The Reality:
That slavery was a legal institution in the U.S. until 1865;
that elections held between 1876 and 1965, particularly in the South, were
largely governed by racist "Jim Crow Laws"; and that women gained the right to
vote only in 1920. That apartheid was legally practiced in the U.S. until 1964
also remains largely hidden
