I think that It is unethical for one man to control what others need to survive. Basic needs include air, water, food, and shelter . If you believe as I do that no one should be at the mercy of another to secure their basic needs, please learn about California Propositions 98 and 99, and vote by June. CA Prop. 98 on the surface is apparently a bill to help "renters, homeowners and the environment", but includes dangerous legal consequences that: 1) eliminate renter protections and rent control 2) guts environmental protections, laws that combat climate change, and protect land, water, air, and our coasts. 3) hurts our students by decreasing revenue that is earmarked for schools 4) hinders long range public planning, threatening our environment and water supply by allowing uncontrolled development 5) although it purports to challenge and reduce government powers of eminent domain, these constitutional amendments will hinder many appropriate uses of eminent domain law to protec

Last night, significant news broke that directly impacts our push for Impeachment Hearings and a possible Inherent Contempt charge for Bush Administration officials such as Karl Rove: Former White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan has revealed in his upcoming book that: • Karl Rove, Scooter Libby, and Vice President Cheney lied about their role in revealing the identity of Valerie Plame Wilson – actions easily amounting to obstruction of Justice. McClellan also admitted that: • There was a coordinated effort within the Bush Administration to use propaganda to pump up the case for the Iraq war and hide the projected costs of the war from the public. Scott McClellan must be called to testify under oath before the House Judiciary Committee to tell Congress and the American people everything he knows about this massive effort by the White House to deceive this nation into war. Last week, a subpoena was issued for Karl Rove to testify before the Judiciary Committee. It appears he will

If there is anything that symbolizes the horror of American atrocities, the sacrifice of our freedoms, the distortion of our law, it is Guantanamo. Keep track of this story, don't let this embarrassment be forgotten, lest you be the next secret prisoner. Primer: Guantanamo Detainees' Rights June 29, 2007 · The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday reversed course, deciding to review whether Guantanamo Bay detainees may go to federal court to challenge their indefinite confinements. The unusual move is a setback for the Bush administration, which has argued that a new law strips courts of their jurisdiction to hear detainee cases. In April, the court turned down an identical request, although several justices indicated they could be persuaded otherwise. The justices did not indicate what changed their minds about considering the issue. But last week, lawyers for the detainees filed a statement from a military lawyer in which he described the inadequacy of the process the administration

Blackwater is a Devil owned private army of demons, killing innocents across the globe, intimidating and attacking the weak, and protecting the corrupt. Disguised as a private "SECURITY" firm, rent-a-cops these are not. The Blackwater crew are fully armed ex-military special forces with everything from AK-47s to Attack Helicopters. For a premium they will protect anyone, even the most vile and evil terrorists on the planet. In their eyes ethics is a luxury, they know no god but money. The US federal government has hired them to protect diplomats in Iraq, because our US Military is too inept to handle the work. Last year Black water made $1.3 Billion, for killing a bunch of kids in Iraq. Now they are looking for new work to take on after the war is over, and the border patrol and enforcement is looking like a money maker. With billions already being allocated for fences and "surveillance", Blackwater would love to become the private version of our National Guard, Co

Last Sunday, at the San Diego County Community Coalition's Progressive Summit Meeting, five progressive candidates from around the county gave their stump speeches and answered questions from the crowd. Mike Copass - A Progressive Democrat for U.S. Congress, 53rd District (Running against Susan Davis) Copass, a molecular biologist, said some interesting things about education and opportunity, and the "systematic destruction of American potential". Raymond Lutz - Democratic Candidate for California's 77th Assembly District and founder of the Citizens' Oversight Projects . Ray had some very interesting ideas about how to provide accountability and transparency in our democratic voting processes. Namely: NO electronic Voting Machines, Paper Ballots, and Visual Scanners to Digitally Copy Every Ballot and make them available online for independent verification by all! Ray Lutz, also answered questions about the SDG&E "Sunrise Powerlink", a $2-BILLION sc

It's about your hopes, It's about your dreams! It's about what's possible when a new generation of Americans sand up and say: "We are not going to settle for what is, we are going to imagine what might be." You know, there is a moment like that that happens in the life of every generation. Where we shed our fear, and we shed our doubt, and we shed our cynicism. When we roll up our sleeves and arm in arm start rebuilding this country. This is our moment, this is our time. We are a self reliant people, we are an independent people, but we are not a people that turns our back on one another. We are a people that depends upon each other, that believes that all of us must all rise together, or all of us will fall together! That is the American story! YOU and I together we will change this country and we will change the world! God bless America! - Barak Obama, May 19, 2008

Hi everyone, I'm sure some of you have already gotten this information, but it is worth spreading. The threat is that mercenary training is becoming the foundation of our economy, boarder security will be sold-out to private military forces, and our acceptance of these gunmen as an economic backbone on our growing empire will allow war profiteers a legitimate form influence in government. We must not allow the American Dream to become the Blackwater Nightmare. I thought you might be interested in this letter to San Diego Mayor Sanders that I just signed at the Courage Campaign. The letter thanks Mayor Sanders for launching an investigation into the false pretenses Blackwater used to obtain a permit to build a base of operations in San Diego and asks the Mayor to take further leadership -- on behalf of Californians -- to block Blackwater before it's too late. The danger from Blackwater does not end at the San Diego city limits. And it certainly will not end with the conclusion o
