Government - You have a right to know what your government is doing

Herald:" Jorge Morales had every reason to feel blessed on this night. He'd become a father just the day before and was excited about his wife and newborn coming home. He also had the love of his 5-year-old stepdaughter, Dalia, whom he was taking for an evening walk in the Allapattah section of Miami after eating at McDonald's. That's when Morales was shot dead. I remember he said, Run, honey run! And grabbed me and took me to the ground, Dalia Roman recalled. I remember he was covered with blood. I was covered with blood. I was crying and kicking and screaming when they took me away. Morales was struck in the head by one of 59 bullets fired by two cops that night. Two bullets entered the spine of an alleged robber running from the police. The other 56 ended up inside nearby homes, cars, fence gates, the McDonald's. At least one other bystander was wounded. They shot everywhere. They didn't care, a witness said of the cops. How did The News-paper come to know all this? Because of freedom of information laws that enable the public to access even the most sensitive documents of public agencies and governments, in this case ballistics reports prepared by internal investigators. And it mattered. The newspaper's investigation into what was then a trigger-happy Miami Police Department responsible for numerous deliberate and accidental killings and injuries. Another would hide information gathered in an investigation into a law-enforcement officer's actions. Sounds harmless enough, until you realize that The News-paper's ability to ferret out the wild-West behavior of several Miami cops could have been blocked had this proposal been the law. Our common enemy is apathy. We worry that most Americans won't notice, or worse, won't care, as their right to know what their government is doing slips away. This is no idle threat. A recent Knight Foundation survey of more than 100,000 high-school students found that nearly 75 percent had little understanding of the First Amendment's guarantee of freedom of the press, of religion, of assembly and of the right to petition government to redress grievances. More alarming, more than a third believe that the First Amendment goes too far. And high-school students aren't alone. The late U.S. Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black paid homage to Madison in 1971 when he concluded an opinion by writing, ``And paramount among the duties of a free press is the duty to prevent any part of the government from deceiving the people and sending them off to distant lands to die of foreign fevers and foreign shot and shell....Or, perhaps, to die of trigger-happy cops at home. I read this and it really made me scared, like this parent he was just doing a normal thing with his child and because he was in the wrong place at the wrong time he's dead. So What I need to ask when is or where is the safe place to be and at the right time?...ALSO, did you read the last to line's? Remember what they said. If not read them again, does Iraqi come to mind?"

Iraqi -Remembering All Those Arguments Made-1,500 Deaths Ago

Washington:" Something about anniversaries prods us to pause and reflect on what's transpired in the intervening time. March 20 is the second anniversary of the invasion of Iraq, and it's a good time to consider what's happened since then. Do you recall our civilian leadership's rationale for a pre-emptive war against Saddam Hussein? President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney and, yes, former Secretary of State Colin Powell told the world that the United States had no choice but to invade Iraq. They said Saddam was hiding chemical and biological weapons,and that his scientists would be able to produce a nuclear weapon in a few years. Do you remember those who predicted that the operation would be financed in large part by sales of Iraqi oil? It would be cheap, easy and, oh yes, so swift that civilian leaders in the Pentagon ordered the military to plan to begin withdrawing from Iraq no later than the summer of 2003. There was no need for much post-war planning because there wasn't going to be any post-war. America would come, conquer and get out. At that moment, in late February 2003, on the eve of the invasion, the U.S. invasion force of 278,000 American troops began to dwindle as someone tried to prove the job could be done with fewer than Shinseki's 200,000 troops. Call that the Shinseki Threshold. One division's tanks and Bradley fighting vehicles bobbed around at sea for weeks and arrived too late for the attack. A second division of tanks and Bradley armored vehicles slated for the follow-up to the invasion was canceled; a third division's deployment to Iraq was postponed for several months. Military Police units needed to secure a hundreds of miles of dangerous supply lines - and to establish law and order - disappeared from the war plan.But as the invasion forces regrouped, the world witnessed an orgy of looting and burning of government ministry buildings, and even the power plants upon which a city of 11 million people depended. There was no one to prevent it. Birthing democracy, Rumsfeld allowed, can be "messy.'' After nearly 18 months, the Pentagon admitted that a team of nearly 1,000 intelligence officials and scientists had combed Iraq for evidence of chemical and biological weapons or any sign of an active nuclear weapons program. They found nothing. This war that was supposed to be a cakewalk has taken the lives of 1,510 American troops and sent thousands more home, maimed by improvised explosive devices that tear off arms and legs. American taxpayers have paid more than $200 billion in two years for a war we were told wouldn't cost much, if anything, and the cost in fiscal 2006 will be at least $70 billion more. Now the administration tells us that we had to attack not because Saddam had weapons of mass destruction and ties to al-Qaeda, but because he wasn't a democrat. Sadly, however, the costs of trying to make Iraq a democracy probably would have been lower, and the chances of succeeding better, if we hadn't gone to war with flimsy evidence and wishful thinking.

I too, ask my government why? How high does the body count have to be before someone says enough is enough? I personally feel myself that this war, and for that fact every war we as American's have fought in for the last 50 years was not some place we really needed to be. Like this one now..NOT Our War!!

Idaho Pocatello - High Paying Jobs

Journal:"I am curious ...Where does Greg Rogers, of Idaho Commerce & Labor, get his statistical facts? He says the annual average wage of an Idahoan with a bachelor's degree is more than $50,000. Where are these high-paying jobs? In the years that I have graduated with a bachelor's degree, I have found jobs that barely keep my income above poverty level. These are mostly part-time jobs without benefits. It is rare to find a professional job with benefits at $24,000 a year (or even $18,000 a year, for that matter). Benefits are scarce, even for the professional who holds a degree (and often a large amount of debt). Unfortunately, it is not just a matter of picking the right degree. A college graduate many times makes half as much as a high school graduate who works in a specific field (think railroad, industrial plants). High school graduates in these areas can make up to $50,000 - an income a lot of college grads may never have access to. So, Greg Rogers, please light a torch to guide us "high-paid graduates" toward the big money to be made after college. It would be nice to at least stay a step ahead of poverty. You could ask any school teacher or social worker about that.....Joni Kuhlman, Downey Idaho" I also live in Pocatello and I agree with her I have friends, who have also gone to collage and decide to stay here and work when they get their degree's. They also say the same thing as what you have read above. If you want a job, to eat & sleep in-doors after going to collage(4+years) around here you'll make around $8.00-11.00 a hour (these usually are only part-time/ no benefits jobs, but you need a degree to just get them)-before tax's. And.. You'll have to be right on top of the job hunting skills to even find that!! Or if you're really lucky as a good friend of mine was last fall. Mind you he worked crappy jobs for 3-years, till he landed a job working for the Health & welfare which put him in the bracket of $21,000.00 a year before tax's. Lucky him!!... Then, the part that really sucks for these BA-collage people is now they have to also pay back those students loans they got to go to collage to better themselves at the price of around $400-$500.00 a-month on top of living expenses, for the next god knows 10-years!! Which would depress anyone. When you see high-school drop-outs making as much money if not more, after you pay your collage loans back each month... Working in Tel-phone-marketing jobs. Makes us wonder why go to collage if your going to stay in Pocatello, or if your smart. You'll move over the state border where the pay is 1/4- double higher. To tell you the truth I have thought about moving out of state many of times but never any extra money to make such a big move, so till I can.

I also will only dream things will change here in Pocatello Idaho, for my children.."

Bush Verses Hitler

Sen.Robert Byrd:" In the magical upside-down world of right-wing blogs, it is now an accepted article of faith that Sen. Robert Byrd compared George W. Bush to Hitler last week. Republicans are demanding an apology, many have taken to high dudgeon, and another pointless flapette is on. Actually Byrd, a noted scholar of the Senate and its procedures, made an interesting speech opposing the "nuclear option" of cutting off Senate debate on judicial nominees. Rumor has it there is a plot afoot in the Senate to curtail the right of extended debate in this hallowed chamber, not in accordance with its rules, mind you, but by fiat from the chair, said the elderly Byrd. He is also famed for his magniloquent speaking style, a splendid old-fashioned oratory known to older Americans who had to study rhetoric. Byrd tangentially mentioned Hitler, quoting historian Alan Bullock to make the following point:Hitler's originality lay in his realization that effective revolutions, in modern conditions, are carried out with, and not against, the power of the state: The correct order of events was first to secure access to that power and then begin his revolution. Hitler never abandoned the cloak of legality; he recognized the enormous psychological value of having the law on his side. Instead, he turned the law inside out and made illegality legal. A point worth pausing over. Byrd went on to suggest the "nuclear option" ploy is similar in that it involves the same premise: If you can't win under the rules, you change the rules. Certainly a case of rhetorical overreach, but then, that is a hazard of public speaking.The blogger Wonkette posted an amusing collection of Republican politicians comparing this, that and the other to Nazi Germany - a ruling on abortion, stem cell research, even the Kyoto protocol. In 2002, former Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas managed to find a tax bill like something right out of Nazi Germany. I don't understand ... why all of a sudden we are passing laws that sound as if they are right out of Nazi Germany. Rhetorical overreach plagues many: George W. Bush once managed to invoke the tragic memory of 9-11 in aid of a capital gains tax cut. Byrd's really quite thoughtful speech should appeal to conservatives with its emphasis on historical precedent, constitutional responsibilities, and the system of checks and balances. Byrd also made a spirited attack on Franklin D. Roosevelt for his misbegotten plan to "pack" the Supreme Court. All of this was about Bush's decision to renominate 20 of his choices for the federal bench who never got a vote in his first term because of threatened filibusters. For some reason, Republicans have chosen to treat these rebuffs as though they were World War III, accusing Democrats of the dread obstructionism. Their own record during the Clinton years of knocking off dozens of President Clinton's judicial nominees gives not the slightest pause. The 20 retreads include some real dogs. One of these prizes is William G. Myers III, nominated for a lifetime seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. His qualifications consist of having spent most of his adult life as a lobbyist for Western mining, timber and oil companies. Bush named him top lawyer in the Interior Department in 2001, apparently on the grounds that Myers once compared the federal government's management of federal lands to the tyranny of King George III. Another gem is Janice Rogers Brown of California, nominated for the D.C. Court of Appeals, who described the New Deal as the triumph of our socialist revolution and praised an infamous line of Supreme Court cases from 1905 to 1937 striking down worker health and safety laws as infringing on the rights of business. (Of course your employer has a right to kill you - what are you, out of the mainstream?) Still another prize in this package is Claude A. Allen, who believes abortion rights are causing genocide of black people. A supporter of abstinence education, Allen backed the administration's decision to remove information about condoms from the Web site of the Centers for Disease Control. My personal fave is Priscilla Owen of the Texas Supreme Court, who is so far out that Alberto Gonzales once denounced one of her decisions as an unconscionable act of judicial activism. Then there's William Haynes, principal author and defender of the administration's dubious handling of several torture issues. All in all, a lovely bunch of coconuts, with a collective record showing opposition to human rights, civil rights, abortion rights pretty much everything but property rights. I agree....Sorry in my eye's....If the shoe fits!!"

American bison droppings

Idahofalls Idaho: "Dung and Dunger: a chip off the old bison Two Idaho artists have founded a company called Dung and Dunger that makes paper art from American bison droppings. Victor Bruha and Daniel Hidalgo say they plan to market their hand-made creations to tourists, KIFI-TV, Idaho Falls reported. "It's interesting because it's a local handmade product and ... A lot of tourists are looking for something that has a local flavor and by doing this we are upping the entire process -- making the paper, making the prints, selling the art work, it's all done right here," said Hidalgo. The artists say the process of making paper out of bison chips has been around for years. A single bison chip can yield 20 to 25 sheets of rustic paper that can be used for printing art. The artists said they plan to make Christmas ornaments from bison dung once the holiday season rolls around. I Live about 45min. Drive: From Idaho falls, guess I'll just have to check this out... Not sure how I feel about using paper made from animal..sh#t?...What's next human dung? Makes me think twice, about sticking paper in my mouth's next time... Yuck!!"

Iran's nuclear arms program

US-slim data on Iran:" The United States has inadequate intelligence on Iran's nuclear arms program, a U.S. commission is preparing to tell President Bush. The report is due to be given to Bush and an unclassified version to Congress March 31, but sources told The New York Times that U.S. intelligence agencies have had little success in the kinds of human spying necessary to understand Iranian decision-making. The nine-member bipartisan presidential panel, led by Laurence Silberman, a retired federal judge, and Charles Robb, a former governor and senator from Virginia, had unrestricted access to the most senior people and the most sensitive documents of the intelligence agencies during the past 14 months. The most recent statement by U.S. agencies about Iran and its weapons was an unclassified report sent to Congress in November by CIA Director Porter Goss, who said Iran continued "to vigorously pursue indigenous programs to produce nuclear, chemical and biological weapons." You know what upsets me about this more then anything is that, we have our people over their. We hear and are told that: American soldiers are safe, and our government is on top of everything to keep them safe, so they say. But then something like this comes out and it's scary, because you know inside of you their is truth in it.

U.S. hobbling German Sept. 11 trial

U.S. hobbling German Sept. 11 trial:"Hamburg : German prosecutors of a suspected al-Qaida terrorist are frustrated by U.S. testimony the suspect had little to do with the attacks of Sept.11, 2001.Moroccan-born Mounir Motassadeq is on trial in Hamburg before five judges.He is accused of more than 3,000 counts of accessory to murder and membership in a terrorist organization, namely al-Qaida. But attorney Dietrich Snell, who headed the U.S. commission's team that investigated the role of the Hamburg cell, told judges the ring-leader, Mohamed Atta, and the other Sept.11 hijackers did not develop the idea for the attacks on New York and Washington plot on their own.Rather, Snell testified, they were recruited by al-Qaida chief - Osama bin Laden during a visit to militant training camps in Afghanistan. That was a blow for prosecutors, who must prove that important elements of the conspiracy took place in Germany, the New York Times said Wednesday. Motassadeq, 31, was convicted on the charges in 2003 and sentenced to 15 years in prison, the maximum under German law. But an appeals court overturned the verdict, ruling the evidence did not justify the result." Personally I don't feel we will ever know who was truly involution in the Sept.11, attack. And if we do, it won't be while I'm still breathing. Yes someday someone will brag or tell. But that day is and will be a long time away So as far this man do we really want to be the one's who burn him at the stake! Well.....I don't feel I would want to make that call, unless I was %100 sure it was him. Or to that matter, anyone.

Ebay This

ebay:"Governor candidate uses eBay for publicity. Self-employed contractor Larry Bays, a gubernatorial candidate in Ohio, is auctioning his services as a handyman on eBay to gain publicity. "The idea came to me one evening when I got this letter from (Ohio Secretary of State and gubernatorial candidate) Kenneth Blackwell asking for donations for his campaign, said Bays, a contractor and Wayne County parks commissioner. At the same time I'm opening his letter, there was this story on the evening news about this pregnant lady who was putting her tummy on eBay and renting it out for advertisement. I thought that was a great idea, and it was exactly what I needed to do. Bidding began at $900, for chores such as painting, cleaning, carpentry and plumbing. The winning bidder gets one day a month of services during Bays first year in the governor's mansion. Oh Ya - He's a Republican." I saw this and laughed..Really should of known he was a Republican, it's all about money not what he can do to change things. Personally I think this type of ads on Ebay is stupid now was cute when the first time I heard about it but, I don't know about others but. I sure would never pay for this type of publicty least not for $900.00 min. bid

Saddam capture fiction

Public version of Saddam capture fiction:" Riyadh, Saudi Arabia: A former U.S. Marine who participated in capturing ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein said the public version of his capture was fabricated. Ex-Sgt.Nadim Abou Rabeh, of Lebanese descent, was quoted in the Saudi daily al-Medina Wednesday as saying Saddam was actually captured Friday, Dec. 12, 2003, and not the day after, as announced by the U.S. Army. "I was among the 20-man unit, including eight of Arab descent, who searched for Saddam for three days in the area of Dour near Tikrit, and we found him in a modest home in a small village and not in a hole as announced," Abou Rabeh said. "We captured him after fierce resistance during which a Marine of Sudanese origin was killed," he said. He said Saddam himself fired at them with a gun from the window of a room on the second floor. Then they shouted at him in Arabic: "You have to surrender. ...There is no point in resisting." "Later on, a military production team fabricated the film of Saddam's capture in a hole, which was in fact a deserted well," Abou Rabeh said." Does any one remember the story of Jessie James? If not well the story goes how someone caught him from the back, and shot him dead, and he went down in history as the man who shot Jessie James. Well if you read the book wrote by his family is tell a whole different story, about a man who live to a old age and died. What I'm getting at is, we as humans tend to believe what, our government tell us. Should we?

Thought this picture expressed how I was feeling to day, I was in a car accedent last night with some young girl from out of state and she just kept screaming at me how much she hated me. Well Police now say I have to take her to court and sue her to get my car fixed. so pretty upset over all of this as I have never been in a car crash before, sort of feel like God is flicking me because I did something wrong. No matter what I thought the picture said how I was feeling, hope you like it.

Gulf War illness

Newsletter:"never use Diet Coke to cook with. Heat turns the Nutri Sweet (aspartame) into methyl alcohol . It is thought that maybe all the gulf war illness could be due to the diet coke that sat in the sun and got warm. Do not heat anything sweetened with aspartame because it metabolizes into methanol, which is poison. That's why, at first, the manufacturer refused to put out any recipes for baking and cooking. Medical studies done in the past few years have shown many, many illnesses and syndromes to be connected to aspartame, neurological disorders, brain cancer and migraines were at the top of the last list I saw. I've known a number of people who had migraines and when they quit using aspartame the migraines didn't come back. Myself I will not drink any-brand of diet soda I just don't like the after taste even my doctor told me years ago stay away from them and I have."

Prostitution Placement Debated

:"How many brothels on one street make up a red light district is under debate in the Australian state of Queensland. The issue arose when the Prostitution Licensing Authority endorsed two brothels across the road from each other in Bundall on the Gold Coast, a major tourism destination. However, that prompted the state's conservative Opposition to ally with brothel owners from the Queensland Adult Business Association to call for the government to define red-light districts in the Prostitution Act. The act requires the PLA to refuse a license if the number of brothels and adult entertainment premises in an area would substantially affect the character of the area by creating a red-light district, but does not define such a district. QABA spokesman said approving multiple licenses put localities on a slippery slope to becoming true red-light districts." Okay...Would someone comment on this and clear this up for me? Personally I don't care, what someone does with their own body as long as it don't hurt anyone, and this is what they want of their free choosing. But why is it okay to sell.. Sex for money if you pay-tax's on it....This reminds me of something that happened 15yrs. Ago. I knew this couple that were on welfare, got caught up in a (Drug-Bust)...The legal system also charged: (Frauding the Grovement & Welfare Fraud) On the grounds they were working under the table and not reporting their income, and they were found guilty...Lets see this is a 50/50 chance you'll get busted any way. Remember if your collecting State $$ Funds....Make sure you report to your Social-worker your Profit's from your... DRUG or PROSTITUTION Income, don't forget to keep records of customer buys too, you'll need it for tax-time...Or Court to bail your ASS-out...LOL

Dead end Job

Weird News:"Around the year 1500"s - Old England is and small and the local folks started running out of places to bury people. So they would dig up coffins and would take the bones to a "bone-house" and reuse the grave. When reopening these coffins, 1 out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive. So they thought they would tie a string on the wrist of the corpse, lead it through the coffin and up through the ground and tie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night (the "graveyard shift") to listen for the bell; thus, someone could be "saved by the bell" or was considered a "dead ringer." And that's the truth. . . (who ever said that History was boring)?" Now how would you to have to do this job? Talk about watching the dead, I've worked in some pretty dead in jobs. But never one this bad."

Roman stone Legendary-says Pope will live

MSNBC:" Does a stone carving in one of Rome’s biggest cathedrals know whether Pope John Paul II will survive his latest health crisis? The monument to Pope Sylvester II, who ruled the Catholic Church 1,000 years ago, is said to moisten when the death of a pontiff is imminent. On Friday, a priest touched the carving in Rome’s Basilica of Saint John Lateran and confirmed it was dry and good news for the pope, who had windpipe surgery Thursday after being rushed to the hospital with breathing problems. The pontiff is also battling Parkinson’s disease and crippling arthritis. In the sacristy of Saint John Lateran, the pope’s “second cathedral” for his role as bishop of Rome, two elderly Italian nuns in gray habits said the monument’s prophesying power was well documented. “It sweats when the death of a pope is approaching,” one of them said. They did not give their names. “The stone cries. It’s true, it has happened. There are people who have seen it,” the other nun added. Both said they did not know anyone who had witnessed the phenomenon. Peeping out from their empty confessionals under the gaze of gigantic white statues of saints, several priests said they had been unaware of the legend. Father Edoardo was at first skeptical when told about the carving, framed by two yellow marble columns. “The stone feels cold,” he said on touching the carving and columns. “But dry.” Breaking into a smile, he added, “So the pope will live.” Forgive me for saying something bad about this as I have good friends who are catholic, and mean no dis-respect to them or anyone else, that may be also catholic. But I don't know, if its a blessing, to know when someone is going to die...To me it seems all most sad as I wouldn't want a rock laying around my house, that one day said....Oh! Your mom's going to die today. I feel that would just make then hurt more when I'm gone. I accept the fact their is a stone people believe in, but why does it have to be connected to death? Why not something nicer like a New Pope will take his seat over the people, that seems more pleasant to think about right?... Least to me anyway"

Soldier-Message of love

MSNBC: "With premonition he wouldn't survive in Iraq, a GI left a video for his wife. In- Fort Benning Ga. - Before deploying earlier this year, Sergeant First Class David Salie was certain of two things: Serving in Iraq was the right thing to do and he wouldn't survive his tour. He shared that premonition with his wife weeks before he left. "He rolled over and looked at me and he said, 'D, I'm not coming back,'" recalls Deanna Salie. Sadly, David Salie's prediction came true. He was killed in a roadside bombing on Valentine's Day, just four days into his Iraq tour. His children and wife are now mourning a terrible loss. "I am a little mad at him for leaving me, because I don't know how to live without David," says Deanna. But Sgt. Salie knew one more thing, that he should tell his family how much he loved them, in a way they could never forget. "If you're seeing this, then I'm not coming home," begins a videotape Sgt. Salie made the night before he left. He secretly recorded messages for them with instructions to view the video only if he didn't return. "You're without a daddy, in person but I'm always with you. You're without a husband in person, but I'm always with you," says David on the tape. It's an eternal message of love from a husband and father to his family. There are other recordings for future milestones, like graduations and weddings I won't be there to share. But there was a bigger message for the present. "The price was worth it, in my heart," says David on the video. "What I have done was the right thing to do." Because everyone who loved David Salie knew that he believed in America and was willing to give his life fighting for Iraqi's to share American freedom. Deanna believes that too. "He sent word to a lot of the single soldiers' families," she says. "He said, 'Don't worry about your son, I'll stand in front of him.' There are a lot of little girls and little boys who are without their parents. And we're making those sacrifices to make their lives better." David's father, Jim, agrees. "My son died doing what he loved," he says. "He knew what the consequences were." There were no words for the family's sorrow, but they know David doesn't regret his sacrifice, because he said so." I had to post this and I hope you agree after reading this, yes this is a sad day for his family and wife. But he said it all in his last words...He has gone and done what he could for the future of freedom ! For all American people....He gave his life..... May he never be forgotten.............
