Unfair and Unbalanced

By -
Common Cause, MoveOn.org, and several other organizations have launched a campaign to take on Fox for pretending partisan news is "fair and balanced." They've posted a really horrifying but funny video clip
highlighting Bill O'Reilly's hypocrisy as well as a complaint to the FTC at:

The challenges to Fox's partisanship are mounting. It's crucial that we
voice our disgust with Fox's deceptive advertising now.

Scientists offered cash to dispute climate study

By -
Bush, Big Oil at it again. Always at it. This time it is just a little more blatant. Here's to the worst planet money can buy. From the story: Scientists and economists have been offered $10,000 each by a lobby group funded by one of the world's largest oil companies to undermine a major climate change report due to be published today. Letters sent by the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), an ExxonMobil-funded thinktank with close links to the Bush administration, offered the payments for articles that emphasise the shortcomings of a report from the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

Gallup: 50% of Americans Now Say Bush Deliberately Misled Them on WMDs

By -
Are Americans finally getting wise? There are no WMDs in Iraq, nor have there ever been any WMDs in Iraq. We were lied to about Iraq. We are being lied to about Social Security. Basically, we are lied to every time Bush opens his mouth. It is a tragedy that we had to elect him in order to wake up to how much Bush lies. The "axis of evil" IS the Bush Administration. ... But I digress. Half of all Americans, exactly 50%, now say the Bush administration deliberately misled Americans about whether Iraq had weapons of mass destruction, the Gallup Organization reported this morning. "This is the highest percentage that Gallup has found on this measure since the question was first asked in late May 2003," the pollsters observed. "At that time, 31% said the administration deliberately misled Americans. This sentiment has gradually increased over time, to 39% in July 2003, 43% in January/February 2004, and 47% in October 2004." ... Last week Gallup reported that 5...

Gonzales Questions Habeas Corpus

By -
In the most shockingly cynical, mis-directed and mind-boggling statement by an Attorney General in perhaps the history of the world, Gonzales offered his own feeble-minded re-interpretation of the United States Constitution. In an further attempt to somehow justify the criminal activities of the Bush Administration, Gonzales stated, "There is no expressed grant of habeas in the Constitution; there’s a prohibition against taking it away,". So in order to take it away, does not one have to have it in the first place? My god, where did Bush find this guy? Answer: the same pea pod of neocons who are bent on taking away the rights of the US people, imposing imperial rule on the United States and expanding US hegemony to the rest of the world. It may be time to dust off those Hitler references.
