AMERICAblog: From a Salon Interview of Ron Reagan Jr Last month

] "And the weapons of mass destruction? Whatever happened
] to them? I'm sure we'll find some," he laughs. "They're
] being flown in right now in a C-130. There were, and will
] be, a lot of people killed over there. And if you don't
] care about the Iraqi casualties, what about the American?
] We stand to lose more people in the next months of
] occupation than we lost in the weeks of war. One of the
] reasons we escaped largely unscathed so far was because
] our military moved so fast. But now we're sitting targets
] -- we have to establish bases, patrol the streets, guard
] checkpoints. We're sitting targets for suicide bombers
] and other terrorists."

] "And they told us, 'Don't worry about W. not knowing
] anything, good old Dick Cheney will be his minder.' Dick
] Cheney? And this was going to be compassionate
] conservatism? Dick Cheney is to the right of Genghis
] Khan, he wants to drill in your backyard, he wants to
] deny black people their rights --it was all there in his
] voting record for us to see. What were we, rubes?"

AMERICAblog: Because a great nation deserves the truth
Topic: Miscellaneous 10:21 am EDT, Jun 10, 2004

] In three separate press conferences over a three year
] period at the beginning, and well into, the AIDS crisis,
] Ronald Reagan's chief White House spokesman joked and
] laughed off questions when reporters tried to make
] serious inquiries about the AIDS epidemic.

Fantastic transripts here. I told myself that I wouldn't get involved in the counter-revisionism that is going on right now with us liberals (TM) but I had never actually seen the active oppression in the administration. I suppose its at least a partially unfair lens given that 50 years ago racist jokes were acceptable. But still. Not everyone was a saint just because you choose to selectively remember them that way.

Songs with Questionable Lyrics
Topic: Miscellaneous 10:21 am EDT, May 21, 2004

] Clear Channels List of
] Songs with Questionable Lyrics
] Artist Title
snips out a few of the 150 songs banned
] Black Sabbath "War Pigs"
] U2 "Sunday Bloody Sunday"
] Cat Stevens "Peace Train"
] John Lennon "Imagine"
] The Clash "Rock the Casbah"
] Nina "99 Luft Balloons/99 Red Balloons"

Why on earth should would songs be removed from airplay on all of Clear Channel's stations following the 9/11 attacks, when all of these are Anti-war?

Warpig - Politians start meaningless wars that cause pointless deaths, but don't worry, they will go to hell in the end

Sunday Bloody Sunday - Religious feuds only kill innocents, and no one talks about all the evils their cause inflicts. Stop the Cycle.

Peace Train - I'm sad because people are hating each other, but I am also happy because I know soon the world will grow up and be at peace

Imagine - Imagine all the people living in harmony

Rock the Casbah - Damn Arabs with their dicking us over oil

99 Luft Ballons - Some little event could trigger our total destruction, and would anyone even remeber us? War is all so petty and silly.

RE: BERG- 98% Chance That This is a Military-Industrial Complex Psyop
Topic: Miscellaneous 11:09 am EDT, May 17, 2004

Dude, I am 99% sure that was sarcasm. You got plenty of tinfoil hat sympathizers around here. I don't know how much I believe the specifics of your link, but there are definitely some interesting questions involved here. Something does not smell right. His family was petitioning the govt to get him released not a week before he was "kidnapped." And one of the 9/11 subjects used his email address to communicate to the rest of the al qaeda cells. The govt is playing it off as a coincidence, but c'mon. Something is not right.

] 1301 fluorescent light tubes powered by the electro
] magnetic field emitted from the overhead powerlines.

wow. this is really cool. I saw this first in Smithsonian magazine-- artist who works in the physics department at the Univ. of Bristol planted 1301 unwired fluorescent lights into the ground underneath high-power transmission lines. Go read the press section of the site as well. he has done some other neat things, as documented on the site, as well.
