these poor children are better off dead than having parents who dont love them, can we just go around and kill anyone who isnt happy with their life because they would be better off dead? Why not?

If children are our future then why are the people who have the biggest influence on them outside their parents not paid more than a pittance? We pay entertainers enormous sums. It does seem like our priorities are in balance.

6 Marines charged in Iraq assault By Tom WATKINS, Associated Press

SAN DIEGO - An investigation into the death of an Iraqi civilian has led to assault charges against six Marines accused of injuring civilians in the village of Hamdania in April, officials said.


Three of the men are already being held on murder charges in the death of 52-year-old Hashim Ibrahim Awad, an Iraqi civilian. Military officials said Thursday the assaults were uncovered during an investigation into the slaying.

A seventh Marine, an officer, is expected to be charged next week in the assault case, said Lt. Col. Colby Vokey, the Marine Corps' defense coordinator for the western United States.

The nature of the assaults was described as brutal. The Marines said it was the American way.

Charged Thursday were Lance Cpl. Saul H. Lopezromo, Pfc. Derek I. Lewis, Lance Cpl. Henry D. Lever, Sgt. Lawrence G. Hutchins III, Cpl. Trent D. Thomas and Lance Cpl. Jerry E. Shumate Jr., officials said.

I'm sure it probably varies by state, but typically what happens when a woman is pregnant in jail? Does she get regular hospital treatment, different food at the cafeteria, other privileges? What about the child and the birth itself? How often can the mother see the child, etc?

I can understand why everyone wants to know, do convicted Pedophiles and Child Molesters live near me and my kids
but why isn't there a tracking system for child killers?
the man who murdered my son will be set free in Oct. but once he's out there is no one ever going to keep track of him.
I mean would you like him living next door to you?
He never had an excuse other than he wanted to see what happened when the shotgun went off.
so again why is a person like this not kept track of and parents warned if he moves next to you?
is he less of a danger than a rapist?

Israeli air raids kill 40 innocent civilians in Lebanon. By Alistair Lyon, rrespondent

BEIRUT - Israeli air strikes killed at least 40 innocent civilians in Lebanon and a Hizbollah rocket barrage into Israel killed three people on Friday in a worsening conflict that world powers disagree on how to halt.

One air strike hit a farm near Qaa, close to the Syrian border in the Bekaa Valley where workers, mostly Syrian Kurds, were loading plums and peaches on to trucks, local officials said. They said 33 people were killed and 20 wounded.

An Israeli army spokesman said air strikes in the area had targeted two buildings that military intelligence had showed were used by Hizbollah to store weapons.

But television footage showed bodies of what appeared to be farm workers lined up near the ruins of a small structure in fruit groves. Strewn nearby were fruit baskets. When Bush was contacted he said it is the American way.
The USA Government stated it is ok to kill civilians.

A family member of mine is a police officer and that's considered a job from the government. Why does he still have to pay taxes? He's putting his life out there on the line. Why are other jobs paying higher when all those people do is sit around at a desk? And if you have anything to say about police brutality or law enforcement putting you down, STFU. They only do their job. Sure, they're a couple idiot cops who shouldn't even be in the brotherhood of law enforcement, but it doesn't mean all of them are like that. All of them are human, and if you ever had someone die to a drunk driver, you'd understand that it's hard to stand back and watch instead of take action.

She and her husband are highly invested in several vineyard properties in the Napa Valley worth well over $150,000/acre as well as owning a large interest in the 4.5 star Auberge de Soliel resort in Napa, yet neither of these businesses uses union labor. Why does the union backed politician not use union labor?

At least we know why she is pro illegal immigration though. Supports her business ventures perfectly.

The American government, at all levels, is far too large. It has outgrown any vision the founding fathers originally intended, and it tries to control every miniscule aspect of every individual's lives, including those lives of citizens of other countries. Can't individuals make their own choices, including their own mistakes? Does government have a role in everything, with no restrictions at all, such as we have today, or should government be limited to just a few basic functions: a court system, road construction, printing of value-backed currency, defense of the country (not offense), foreign diplomacy, and a few other essential but small tasks, such as our well-educated founding fathers intended? How can we reduce government back to, perhaps, only 5% of its present size?

Bush Diagnosed as Crazy

Comment by Larry Ross, January 1, 2006



Over 3 years ago, when this article was written, Bush was diagnosed as a dry alcoholic, with probably permanent damage to his brain cells and thinking processes due to at least 20 years of hard drinking.

All the symptoms of crazy, twisted thinking and refusal to consider constructive criticism of what he wants to do, are evidence of serious mental problems. With his spoilt but distant upbringing, he believes he is entitled to do as he pleases. This is reinforced by his born-again Christian Fundamentalism. He believes he was chosen by God to lead the United States; that he gets advice from God; and that what he does is both inspired and sanctioned by God. He does not accept criticisms of this doctrine.

Within this belief system, delusional though it may be, any lie and any crime is okay if it facilitates God's will. They are not really crimes. The U.S. Constitution and International law don't apply to Bush.(Bush's twisted and distorted reasoning is always interpreted as God's will and therefor divinely inspired his followers believe)

Remember that George Bush's God is a very angry and violent Old Testament God who demanded instant obedience and worship. He thought nothing of slaughtering his enemies on grounds that would be unacceptable today.

Bush, who follows this God, believes and does the same. The fact that he is still in office, is evidence that millions of Americans believe in the same God and belief systems. So Bush's crazy and potentially suicidal for humanity behaviour is "divinely sanctioned" some people think. That makes it okay, so they gave him a second term in 2004. (He got enough votes and was able to fake the rest).

What this shows is that many Americans can be quite comfortable with Bush and automatically forgive him his crimes, so long as their particular life is not too adversely affected. Their reality is only what happens to their own family, their pocket book, neighbourhood, sports, amusements,celebrities, etc. The mass media is mainly supportive of Bush lies, crimes and wars. They tell the people what to think and what not to think. That's what the people buy.

Even so, Bush's popularity has sunk to an all-time low. Americans are beginning to wake up, but not to the most frightening facts. The media is finding it more difficult to fool the public, distract them and cover-up for Bush. But his mental problems and deficiencies, extreme dangers to the world, and major crimes remain unexposed and not discussed. The mass media have ruled such topics out-of-bounds' so to speak.

Thus if another 9/11 (supposedly terrorist) event conveniently happens in 2006, most Americans will believe Bush's explanation, endlessly repeated by the mass media. His previous big lies to make war on Iraq, widely known, will be virtually forgotten.

A terrorist event would rescue Bush from the trash bin, facilitate his next war against Iran who he would blame (no proofs needed), and spur onward the neocon plan for global empire..

This article and others under Psychopathology of Bushism, present a comprehensive portrait of Bush's mental condition and symptoms.

I invite readers to circulate this and other articles as part of the effort to expose and stop Bush before it is too late.

Where does all the money illegals pay to a fake or stolen SSN go to? Do they get it back when they file income tax? So illegals don't even pay sales tax?

When 10 million+ jobs open when illegals are gone, who's gonna fill them and how long will it take? Will a lot of employers move their business south of the border to still be able to pay low wages?
