Date: Thu, 12 Aug 2004 21:33:09 -0400 From: dujaa en Puerto Rico To: apfn@apfn.org CC: Judicial Reform Investigations justice@court.to "If there is no struggle there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, want crops without plowing the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will." -- Frederick Douglass -------------------------------- Frederick Douglass (American Memory, Library of Congress) The papers of Frederick Douglass span the years 1841 to 1964, with the bulk of the material concentrated in the period 1862-95. ...

Maybe some military leader is responsible for the outrages, they say. Maybe a civilian leader in the Pentagon. Maybe even Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld himself. Here at Berkeley, however, liberal students know exactly who to hold responsible for the dehumanization of the detainees. Ultimately, the person to blame for Abu Ghraib is George W.

Cheney's Man Penned Torture Memo JULY 8--David Addington, the General Counsel to Vice President Dick Cheney, was the actual author of one of the now-infamous White House ``torture memos'' that claimed for President Bush the authority to violate the Geneva Conventions on the Treatment of Prisoners of War, in the so-called ``war on terrorism.'' The immediate result of this Hitlerian document was the scenes of inhuman torture at the Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad, and the as-yet untold tales of similar torture at other secret prison locations in Afghanistan, at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and in other countries around the world. http://larouchein2004.net/pages/pressreleases/2004/040709addington.htm http://finance.lycos.com/qc/news/story.aspx?symbols=PRNEWS:100&story=200407041431_PRN__NYSU010 The Evil Dick Cheney From 1997 through 2000, Cheney's Halliburton sold $73 million worth of oil equipment and services to Iraq through subsidiaries Dresser-Rand and Ingersoll Dresser Pump Co. to help rebuild Iraq's Gulf War-damaged infrastructure. That was more business than any other U.S. company, and Cheney later lied about his Iraqi connection to media types like Sam Donaldson. http://www.apfn.org/apfn/dcheney.htm Vice President Dick Cheney thought it would be a good idea for the Navy to pay his $186,000 home electric bill http://www.harpers.org/WeeklyReview2001-07-24.html#20030929233555-9599207697 Vice President Dick Cheney, who also has close ties to Enron, was still hiding out somewhere. »[ http://www.harpers.org/Enron.html#20030929235325-1805214363 Vice President Dick Cheney, citing executive privilege, was still refusing to release the records of his five meetings with Enron executives to discuss energy policy.

It was noted that the practice of outsourcing logistical operations to private contractors was pioneered by Cheney during the first Gulf War when he was secretary of defense. Brown and Root won the first such contract, and Cheney was hired as CEO of Halliburton soon afterward. http://www.harpers.org/DickCheney.html#20030902535099722320 Vice President Dick Cheney defended Halliburton, which continues to pay him a salary, from what he said were "desperate attacks" by opponents of the Bush Administration. "They're rendering great service," he said. "They do it because they're good at it, because they won the contract to do it.

Pat Leahy, "Go fuck yourself." We agree! Go fuck yourself -- while it's still legal! UPDATE: Speaking of sodomy. . . Wonkette operatives tell us that the fighting words sprang from an exchange in which Cheney told Leahy he didn't like what Leahy had been saying about Halliburton, to which Leahy replied that he didn't like Cheney calling him a bad Catholic. So you'd see how "Go fuck yourself" is the only appropriate response. http://www.wonkette.com/archives/dick-advice-016782.php Sources: Cheney curses senator over Halliburton criticism In response to Cheney, Leahy reminded Cheney that the vice president had once accused him of being a bad Catholic, to which Cheney replied either "f--- off" or "go f--- yourself." http://www.cnn.com/2004/ALLPOLITICS/06/24/cheney.leahy/ SCRATCHING THE SURFACE Dr. Lynne V.

With debate set to begin next week on the amendment proposed by the president, Kerry emphatically reaffirmed the ticket's position that marriage is between a man and a woman. "Let's be very firm about it. Both John and I believe firmly and absolutely that marriage is between a man and a woman," Kerry said. "But we also believe that you don't play with the Constitution of the United States for political purposes and amend the Bill of Rights when you don't need to when states are adequately addressing this issue." Kerry, who recently said he agrees with the Roman Catholic Church that life begins at conception, said he disagrees with his church's teaching that homosexuality is a sin. Edwards twice did not respond when asked if he, too, believes life begins at conception. http://msnbc.msn.com/id/5412246/ Complete Transcript of Interview with the Democratic Candidates http://www.apfn.org/apfn/election_kerry.htm news.google.com John Kerry: Skull and Bones secret society Tue Jan 20 00:10:29 2004 64.140.158.175 Late surge wins Iowa for John Kerry January 20, 2004 SENATOR John Kerry of Massachusetts rode an 11th-hour surge to victory in Iowa's kickoff presidential caucuses, upsetting Democratic front-runner Howard Dean and stunning caucus favorite Dick Gephardt. Mr Kerry's comeback blew the nomination fight wide open, setting the stage for a free-for-all in New Hampshire's follow-up primary.
