Activists decide to vote
By: Joanna Bernstein
Posted: 3/28/08

Despite their concerns about universal healthcare, workers' rights, the
Iraq war, and climate change, many campus radicals have been reluctant
to vote. The students claimed that the federal government is too corrupt
to fairly count their votes.

However, in light of recent sociopolitical revelations, self-proclaimed
activists at Guilford College have decided to vote in the 2008
Presidential election.

After practicing social deviance for years, anarchists, communists, and
other political minorities have succumbed to participatory democracy.

Sophomore peace and conflict studies major Alyzza Callahan registered to
vote as an independent last weekend.

The Top Ten Craziest Things John McCain Has Said While You Weren't Watching
By Cliff Schecter, AlterNet
Posted on March 29, 2008
http://www.alternet.org/story/80622/

John McCain has been saying a lot of downright nutty things lately.
You've probably come across some of them, such as his admitted lack of
knowledge about economics or his excitement at the prospect of remaining
in Greater Mesopotamia for the next ten decades. Yet, alas, much of his
craziness has been lost in the fog of the ongoing battle between Sens.
Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton for the Democratic presidential
nomination. So here's a recap of some nuggets of wisdom you may have
missed -- from McCain's mouth to Bellevue's Ears.

10. Responding to a student who criticized his remark about our staying
in Iraq for 100 years, McCain quipped, "No American argues against our
military presence in Korea or Japan or Germany or Kuwait or other
places, or Turkey, because America is not receiving casualties."

  Body of War

Body of War

By Amy Goodman

March 27, 2008, TruthDig.com

http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/20080326_body_of_war/

We just passed the grim milestone of 4,000 U.S. military
members killed in Iraq since the invasion five years ago.
Still, the death toll climbs.

Typically unmentioned alongside the count of U.S. war dead
are the tens of thousands of wounded (not to mention the
Iraqi dead). The Pentagon doesn't tout the number of U.S.
injured, but the Web site icasualties.org reports an official
number of more than 40,000 soldiers requiring medical
airlifts out of Iraq, a good indicator of the scale of major
injuries. That doesn't include many others. Dr. Arthur Blank,
an expert on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), estimates
that 30 percent of Iraq veterans will suffer from PTSD.

Five Minutes to 9 11 Truth

Watch this. It's a very important 3 minutes, 41 seconds to invest for
anyone who cares about 9/11 truth. It's short and incontrovertible.

In the video above he says he was in the classroom.

Listen to this minute of BS:

They really ought to bring him in and finetoon his programming.

Chomsky too.

Former New Left leader Carl Oglesby on the '60s, his old friend Hillary
Clinton, and the dream of a left-libertarian alliance
Bill Kauffman
April 2008

In the 1960s there emerged a New Left. Until it was infected with the
viruses of violence and Leninism, it was contemptuous of the Old Left’s
embrace of bureaucratic centralism and committed to “participatory
democracy,” civil rights for blacks, and, above all, the withdrawal of
U.S. forces from Vietnam.

Dead Kennedys Lose Vocalist, Gain A Replacement Almost Instantly
3/25/2008 By Cam Lindsay

Does anyone still care about the Dead Kennedys when Jello Biafra hasn't
actually been a member for 22 years? Well, for those out there who like
their DK sans J-E-L-L-O, it appears Biafra isn't the only vocalist who
can't see eye to eye with Easy Bay Ray and Klaus Floride.

Following Brandon Cruz's 2003 departure as the band's lyrical ranter,
most recent Jello-imitator Ron Penalty left the band on Thursday (March
20) over terms he describes as "not amicable." Penalty explained the
situation:

  Somalia Quagmire Continues to Worsen

[The government of Ethiopia, acting as US proxy, invaded Somalia in
December, 2006. They planned to stay for three months, but still remain
today, as the African Union mostly failed to send replacement troops to
occupy the country. The quagmire has only gotten worse in the meanwhile,
and there seems little hope that it will end soon, and now the UN is
talking about sending a force of 27,000 "peacekeepers" to fight the
insurgency. But the US government prefers to lob missiles into the
country rather than risk ground troops, so everything is going great.--DC]

Somalia fighting prompts warning

Forty humanitarian agencies have warned of an impending catastrophe in
Somalia unless urgent action is taken.

They say 20,000 people continue to flee violence in the capital every month.

The warning comes ahead of a UN Security Council meeting to consider
sending 27,000 peacekeepers to Somalia to replace the stretched African
force.
