Protester attempts to actually arrest Karl Rove!

Tuesday, October 21st, 2008

From the SFgate:

An anti-war protester confronted former Bush administration aide Karl Rove while he spoke at a San Francisco mortgage bankers’ meeting, attempting to handcuff him in what she called a citizen’s arrest for “treason.”

A statement by the group Code Pink identified the woman as 58-year-old Janine Boneparth. As Boneparth confronted him, another Code Pink member told the audience that Rove was involved in lying about the Iraq war.

The whole seminar was marred by several outbusrts from protesters but the highlight of the night was the exchange between Mr. Rove and George Mitchell (at the end of the video). I was rolling on the floor in laughter. What a great night of comedy courtesy of the GOP. Keep it up guys! Great material…

More abuses of the patriot act by the Maryland police dept.

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

In an article from commondreams.org- In an inevitable and unfortunate new decree by the Maryland Police department, they are now classifying non violent anti war protestors as “terrorists”. Evidentaly, if one opposes the death penalty or is against the war in Iraq in Maryland, you are now a threat to the state.

One of the most stunning draconian statements came from the former state police superintendent who authorized the operation, Thomas E. Hutchins:

“I don’t believe the First Amendment is any guarantee to those who wish to disrupt the government,”

First amendment? Wow, down the chute we go! weeeee!

Incredible Documentary Footage of Mass Arrest in St. Paul

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

oh my friends, its becoming painfully and excruciatingly obvious that the democratic and free market system we have enjoyed as Americans for over 2 centuries is coming to a close. A new era is emerging– an era of oppression, misinformation and subjigation.

During this “transition” of power from the people to the oligarchy, the mainstream corporate owned media is whole heartedly in compliance and support of this, for lack of a better term “New World Order”. So one of the new directions I am going to take with the site is to begin to focus on more significant happenings that are occuring in the world that the big media outlets are “missing”.

MSNBC Censors a live press conference

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

Again, we run into this situation where the truth seems to dig up from the ground despite the best efforts of the mass media outlets. This time the “truth” struck a live press conference with Condoleezza Rice when a reporter makes a comparison to the U.S. reaction to 9/11 to Russia’s reaction in response to Georgian attacks–the live satellite feed “mysteriously” drops off in the middle of his question/comment. The corporate controlled media outlets are getting more brazen and open with censorship (wow has our country changed!). Just in case you didn’t hear about or see this, the movie is posted below.

Signs of the impending Idiocracy

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

With the 2008 presidential election looming ahead, and despite the will of the people, it looks like with the assistance of Fox news, corporate assistance, a corrupt congress, vote fraud, the propping up of artificially competent candidates, general idiocy, the republicans are probably going to hijack the presidency for the next four years.

While watching the Republican National Convention, I couldnt help to observe that 99.9% of the crowd attending the convention consisted of wealthy caucasians ( I think I saw one indian guy in the crowd). Another thing I couldn’t help but notice were the glimpse of protests erupting in the convention during McCains speech. The overall theme of the convention was “Country First”. The composition of the convention attendees were NOT an accurate cross section of America.

The thing that was probably THE most humorous were the various gaffs and grossly misspelled “signs” and “banners” in the audience. It gave me a chuckle and reminded me of the hilarious movie Idiocracy. Below is montage of imagery for your entertainment.

7 Terrorist groups that exist because of the Bush administration

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Great piece from the OSI gazette. An in depth article chronicling the inception of new terrorist organizations in a response to the Bush administrations foreign policy. oh, so I get it. The U.S. needs to fight the “war on terror” and if we don’t have enough enemies, Bush can just bomb a part of the world and piss off enough people until they rise up and fight back. Voila, instant terrorists!

Heres the list, read the FULL article for the specific details.

1) Al Qaeda in Iraq

2) Ansar al-Islam (Arabic for “Supporters of Islam”)

3) Jamaat Ansar al-Sunnah (Arabic: Group of the Protectors of Sunnah)

4) Mahdi Army Suspended in August 2008

5) Al-Zarqawi Network aka “Tanzim Qa’idat al-Jihad fi Bilad al-Rafidayn,” started 2003

6) Fatah al-Islam

7) The “new” Al-Qaeda/ Iran.

One additional thing I noticed on the bottom of the original story:

Note: Because of Digg’s censorship team, this article has been blocked from Digg. If you would like to submit it, you need to contact: feedback@digg.com

Wow, this is about the 6th time I’ve seen or read allegations that digg.com is censoring information. Another front where “the people” lost out to big corporate interests…

‘Real’ coverage of the RNC

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Tired of the same old wearisome unimportant “news”? Wondering about the peculiar lack of coverage of the Republican National Convention? Well fear no more. Get “real news” from the Coldsnap twitter feed. Its real time commentary of the Coldsnap legal team on the ground in St. Paul. There are some interesting tidbits being posted on the twitter feed such as:

Person tackled by 5 SPPD in riot gear for refusing a search. Media was present for this. 02:08 PM September 01, 2008 from web

Female individual snatched off street by unmarked car on 6th & Wacouta 02:12 PM September 01, 2008 from web

Rage Against the Machine just took 200 people on unpermitted march toward river. They are chanting, “Fuck you, I won’t do what you tell me.” about 6 hours ago from web

Report from prisoner: had been pepper sprayed all over her body, was not allowed to wash it off, now has first degree burns. about 5 hours ago from web

If the Twitter feeds are indeed accurate, theres some nazi germany tactics going on in St. Paul. This is MOST certainly stuff you won’t hear coming from the spoon fed corporate media outlets.

RATM playing across from the RNC… what could go wrong?

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

The rebel rock group Rage against the Machine are playing on September 3rd (the same time as the Republican National Convention) in St. Paul, Minnesota at the Target Center. If their last co-liner with a political convention is any sign of things to come, this ought to be a intense night. From the VH1 article:

De la Rocha recently called for President Bush to be “tried for being a war criminal,” and during the band’s Lolla set, he raged against the last eight years of Republican rule and even had a word of warning for “Brother Obama,” referring to presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Senator Barack Obama.

“Now, we know Brother Obama. … But I tell you what, if he comes to power come November and he doesn’t start pulling troops out of Afghanistan, I know a lot of people who are gonna stand up and burn down every office of every Senate.”

Here is the full article.
