There are more people who believe in "conspiracy theories" than you may think. Question everything you're told. If it doesn't make sense, then something is wrong. Do some research and investigate!

One of the best articles about the history of the United States.
''While administration apologists claim such sweeping and intrusive spying is necessary to "keep America safe," if history is any judge of past intelligence abuses these practices are designed instead, to "keep America in line," ever-fearful and obedient servants of our capitalist masters.''
After purchasing the rights to ''Taxi to the Dark Side'', the Discovery Channel stated it WILL NOT TELEVISE the Oscar winning documentary film stating it is to ''CONTROVERSIAL!''
However, the Discovery Channel not only televised, but also produced, a short documentary about the John F. Kennedy assassination because they must somehow believe the John F. Kennedy assassination isn't controversial at all, even though, in every poll taken since this event, at least 50 percent of people who responded to the polls indicated they did not believe the Official conspiracy theory known as the Warren Commission report. (Poll data is from the actual Discovery Channel show.)
Not only do they air this ''non-controversial'' show, it is filled full of statements supporting the ''Official Conspiracy Theory'', including many statements from the actors in the show saying they are ''starting to come around'' to believing the propaganda and similar LEADING STATEMENTS.
It is interesting how this ''documentary'', a.k.a. propaganda infomercial, conveniently left out any truly inconvenient truths, such as the location of John F. Kennedy's brain or discussing the small hole on the front of Kennedy's head and the large hole in the back and how this could very likely be strong evidence supporting a bullet entering the front of Kennedy's head through the bullet hole in the windshield of the car.
This Discovery Channel show focused only on the material which could involve Lee Harvey Oswald. The only ''conspiracy theory'' ideas they showed were only ones that could be easily disproved.
It is hard to understand how a person could expect objective reporting of controversial material in a Discovery Channel show when they flat out refuse to air ''Taxi to the Dark Side'', an Oscar winning documentary film, full of objective reporting of ''controversial'' material.
It's time to contact your Senators once again. As early as Monday, the Administration and its allies are trying to end Senate debate on FISA and telecom immunity and force a vote on the Senate Intelligence Committee's bill -- a bill that would broadly expand the executive branch's spying powers while granting immunity to telecoms that broke the law and assisted in the NSA's illegal domestic spying.
Every time you've taken action to fight against immunity, it's made a huge difference. In November, your calls and emails helped to ensure that the Senate Judiciary Committee did not include telecom amnesty in its surveillance bill, and in December your calls and emails helped convince Harry Reid to delay the vote until January. Both times, the pundits assumed we didn't stand a chance, and both times we proved them wrong.
"What I found was damning" - "While the FBI was investigating, several arms of the government were shielding what was going on." -- Sibel Edmonds
This article will really open your eyes to how the major media companies in the United States are NOT doing their jobs!!! As you read the Times articles, just think about what you DID NOT HEAR ABOUT in the U.S. media!
This information isn't hidden away inside some secret report somewhere, it is PRINTED in the UK Times, a MAJOR International NEWSPAPER.
Part of the article reads: Sibel Edmonds "said she heard evidence that one well-known senior official in the US State Department was being paid by Turkish agents in Washington who were selling the information on to black market buyers, including Pakistan."
Sibel Edmonds said "He was aiding foreign operatives against US interests by passing them highly classified information, not only from the State Department but also from the Pentagon, in exchange for money, position and political objectives."
Sibel Edmonds also said, "If you made public all the information that the FBI have on this case, you will see very high-level people going through criminal trials."
"What I found was damning," Sibel Edmonds said. "While the FBI was investigating, several arms of the government were shielding what was going on."
This article was published in the UK Times just three days after our previous article discussing Sibel Edmonds!

Alex jones and his crew has compiled a long list of news articles that mention the North American Union.
We have witnessed a congressional bill describing the North American Union. We have Alex Jones' huge list of news articles about it, yet people still won't believe it is real!
Pastor "believes a new 9/11 crisis could be the catalyst to merge the U.S., Mexico and Canada."
"The memoirs of Jean Monnet, regarded as the architect of European unity, finally disclosed he had used a strategy of deceit, knowing his plan to form a European Union would never succeed if it were openly disclosed."
"There has never been a more urgent need to preserve fundamental privacy protections and our system of checks and balances than the need we face today, as illegal government spying, provisions of the Patriot Act and government-sponsored torture programs transcend the bounds of law and our most treasured values in the name of national security." -- ACLU
"Seat belt legislation started with child-restraint laws, then secondary enforcement, and finally a full-on mandate in the majority of states. Why does this legislative escalation occur? It's simple. The federal government just incentivizes their proposal so that each state, and by extension its citizens, feel like they have no choice but to go along with their program."

The Senate plans to take up legislation as early as this week to rein in the Bush Administration's spying powers by reforming the controversial Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Caroline Fredrickson, director of the Washington Legislative Office of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), says that when Congress rushed through wiretapping legislation this past August, they made a grave mistake.
"The Administration bill basically writes August's mistake in stone," she wrote in a press release Tuesday. "It does nothing to protect Americans' communications and violates the Fourth Amendment requirement that courts supervise any spying on American soil."
"The surveillance program began in February of 2001. It had nothing whatsoever to do with the attacks of 9/11. These phone companies are cooperating with the government, not out of a sense of patriotism, but because they're being paid to do so. They're profiteers, not patriots.
"If the Congress grants these companies retroactive immunity it will mean they have no regard for the rule of law they took an oath to uphold. I've taken no oaths. The rule of law will mean absolutely nothing to me if this comes to pass."
Lawmakers need to stand up for the Constitution and support impeachment
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors. -- Article II, Section 4
On Nov. 6, Rep. Dennis Kucinich introduced articles of impeachment against Vice President Dick Cheney on the floor of the House of Representatives. For one shining moment the will of the majority of Americans and the promise of this nation's founders were truly represented.
The detailed charges were solemnly read from the House podium and televised on C-Span. House Democratic Leader Steny Hoyer made a motion to table the bill. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi lobbied hard for votes to table.
In a stunning turnaround, House Republicans changed strategy and voted decisively to prevent tabling the impeachment resolution.
Pelosi was defied by 85 Democratic members who voted against tabling the impeachment resolution. This includes John Conyers, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, and six committee members. The resolution was quickly voted back to the Judiciary Committee, where it is not resting quietly.
Judiciary Committee member Bob Wexler wrote, "The American people are served well with a legitimate and thorough impeachment inquiry. I will urge the Judiciary Committee to schedule impeachment hearings immediately and not let this issue languish as it has over the last six months. Only through hearings can we begin to correct the abuses of Dick Cheney and the Bush administration."
Impeachment is squarely on the table, and momentum is building. A year ago, almost no elected official breathed the word impeachment. Now impeachment has hit the House floor, and our electeds have gone on record. Millions of Americans are demanding an end to executive abuse of power.
After six years of state of emergency, the Patriot Act, the Military Commissions Act, continual war and occupations, our Constitution is deeply in crisis. Americans are in danger of losing our system of government and civil rights if they do not roll back the Bush administration's assault on the rule of law.
Allowing Cheney and George W. Bush to finish their terms without being impeached means future presidents are free to copy their lawless behavior. Of course many important issues deserve the attention of Congress. But the Constitution is the foundation of our democracy, not just an issue. Without the Constitution, we have nothing.
Polls show that 74 percent of Democrats and the majority of American adults support impeaching Cheney. "Never in our history have the high crimes and misdemeanors been so flagrant, and the people of our country know it," writes local author Richard Behan.
Kucinich has targeted Cheney first, but investigations will implicate the president as well. For the first time in the history of the Gallup Poll, 50 percent of respondents say they "strongly disapprove" of the president. Richard Nixon had reached the previous high, 48 percent, just before an impeachment inquiry was launched in 1974. With these numbers, why aren't Bush and Cheney gone already?
The vice president is accused of:
purposely manipulating intelligence to fabricate a threat of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction in order to justify an attack on Iraq;
deceiving Congress about an alleged relationship between Iraq and al-Qaida;
threatening aggression against the Republic of Iran, absent any real threat to the United States.
These violations of the Constitution and international treaty are just the tip of the iceberg. More articles of impeachment can be added at any time, and ample evidence to convict is on the public record. Representatives need to introduce articles regarding:
illegal war, in violation of both international treaty and the Constitution;
widespread domestic wiretapping in violation of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, a felony. Bush already has admitted to this;
condoning torture in violation of federal laws and international treaties;
rescinding habeas corpus, the cornerstone of Western law since the Magna Carta;
obstruction of justice regarding U.S. attorney firings;
subversion of the Constitution, abuse of signing statements and rescinding habeas corpus.
It's astounding that our representatives to Congress carry on with business as usual knowing that Americans lack habeas corpus and a working code of law. I want my representative, Dave Reichert, to block the doors of the House until habeas is restored as a basic human right in this nation!
In light of Bush's steady drumbeat for war with Iran, Kucinich said he will consider an impeachment resolution against him.
"Impeachment may well be the only remedy which remains to stop a war of aggression against Iran," he says.
"The most conservative principle of the Founding Fathers was distrust of unchecked power. Centuries of experience substantiated that absolute power corrupts absolutely. The Constitution embraced a separation of powers to keep the legislative, executive and judicial branches in equilibrium," Bruce Fein, a constitutional lawyer and associate deputy attorney general in the Reagan administration, said in the October 2006 edition of Washington Monthly.
If Congress were serious about oversight, there already would be dozens of bills and resolutions calling for impeachment of Bush and Cheney. The "Unitary Executive Theory" violates the principle of balance of power in the Constitution. The president cites this "unitary" power in hundreds of signing statements that say he can ignore laws passed by Congress.
The First, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments are all now subject to the caprice of government officials. The Military Commissions Act allows U.S. citizens to be detained without due process if they are declared enemy combatants. Without our permission, this country has become an exporter of torture.
Congress has failed to provide oversight and exercise its authority to rein in a criminal administration. Only swift action on impeachment can redeem it now. The people have done the heavy work of bringing impeachment forward. Representatives need only ask if the allegations are serious enough to warrant investigations.
George Bush and Dick Cheney promote an imperial presidency. They assert that the executive is the most powerful branch of government, undermining the judiciary and Congress in violation of the Constitution's bedrock principle of shared power among three co-equal branches. This subverts the very nature of our system of government.
"This is an attempt by the president to have the final word on his own constitutional powers, which eliminates the checks and balances that keep the country a democracy. ... That's a big problem because that's essentially a dictatorship," Fein said.
Washington For Impeachment and Citizens to Impeach Bush and Cheney are working to inform the public, collect signatures to petitions, provide forums, and lobby representatives. Washington was the second state to sponsor a bill for impeachment in the state Legislature.
Washington State Democratic organizations have passed resolutions in 11 Democratic legislative districts, five counties and the Washington State Democratic Central Committee. Jay Inslee, D-Bainbridge Island, has received impeachment resolutions from almost every legislative district within his congressional district. When will he represent the will of his constituents and honor his oath to protect the Constitution?
The national movement to impeach is a non-partisan effort to restore the Constitution and the rule of law. People across the political spectrum can unite to preserve the Constitution and civil liberties given to us by the founders. Impeachment is the peaceful, orderly, constitutionally prescribed way to rid ourselves of a lawless administration.
The issue is not about removing Bush and Cheney as much as it is about preserving the Constitution and redeeming the office of the executive. The Constitution is the contract of governance between the people and the government. What happens when major portions of the contract are violated?
Congress has failed to call the president and vice president to account, so citizens must turn up the heat. Members of Congress who fail to demand investigations are covering for criminals. Every elected official has sworn an oath to "support and protect the Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic." Anything less than impeachment and a full repudiation of the Bush administration's crimes and violations of the law is a dereliction of duty and a betrayal of the public trust.
If we want our democracy back, we need to roll up our sleeves and get to work to clean out the House.

Intelligence legislation passed earlier this month is angering a growing number of critics who say an end-of-session scramble inadvertently gave the Bush Administration wider spying powers than previously thought.
According to Eric Lichtblau and James Risen of the New York Times, "by redefining the meaning of 'electronic surveillance,' the new law narrows the types of communications covered in the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, known as FISA, by indirectly giving the government the power to use intelligence collection methods far beyond wiretapping that previously required court approval if conducted inside the United States."
The U.S.'s top intelligence official has greatly expanded the range of federal and local authorities who can get access to information from the nation's vast network of spy satellites in the U.S.
The decision, made three months ago by Director of National Intelligence Michael McConnell, places for the first time some of the U.S.'s most powerful intelligence-gathering tools at the disposal of domestic security officials. The move was authorized in a May 25 memo sent to Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff asking his department to facilitate access to the spy network on behalf of civilian agencies and law enforcement.
Until now, only a handful of federal civilian agencies, such as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the U.S. Geological Survey, have had access to the most basic spy-satellite imagery, and only for the purpose of scientific and environmental study.
Few people outside the realm of state government have ever heard of the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) - though the organization is responsible for bringing uniform laws that affect millions of citizens throughout the United States.
The organization does not publicly identify the major funders who pump an estimated $5 million into its coffers every year. Nor does it publicly identify its membership.
Numerous investigations conducted over the past many years by news organizations and government watchdog groups reveal that most, if not all, of ALEC's money comes from corporations representing big industry - including drug, tobacco, insurance and gas and oil - as well as conservative foundations.
In addition to Enron, they include Amoco, Chevron, Texaco, R.J. Reynolds, AT&T, the American Nuclear Energy Council, the Chlorine Chemistry Council, the American Petroleum Institute, and the Pharmaceutical Research & Manufacturers of America, to name just a handful."

"First they came for the terrorists but I wasn't a terrorist so I stayed silent and went about my business.
Then they came for those suspected of terrorism, but I certainly wasn't a suspect so I stayed silent and went about my business.
Then they came for those who defended those who were suspected of terrorism, but I wasn't defending such people so I stayed silent and went about my business.
Then, one day, they came and began to "suspect" me, so I stayed very, very silent and went about my business.
And that is how I lost my soul."

Friday, July 20, 2007 JEFF KOSSEFF The Oregonian Staff
WASHINGTON -- Oregonians called Peter DeFazio's office, worried there was a conspiracy buried in the classified portion of a White House plan for operating the government after a terrorist attack. As a member of the U.S. House on the Homeland Security Committee, DeFazio, D-Ore., is permitted to enter a secure "bubbleroom" in the Capitol and examine classified material. So he asked the White House to see the secret documents. On Wednesday, DeFazio got his answer: DENIED. "I just can't believe they're going to deny a member of Congress the right of reviewing how they plan to conduct the government of the United States after a significant terrorist attack," DeFazio says. Homeland Security Committee staffers told his office that the White House initially approved his request, but it was later quashed. DeFazio doesn't know who did it or why. "We're talking about the continuity of the government of the United States of America," DeFazio says. "I would think that would be relevant to any member of Congress, let alone a member of the Homeland Security Committee." Bush administration spokesman Trey Bohn declined to say why DeFazio was denied access: "We do not comment through the press on the process that this access entails. It is important to keep in mind that much of the information related to the continuity of government is highly sensitive." Norm Ornstein, a legal scholar who studies government continuity at the conservative American Enterprise Institute, said he "cannot think of one good reason" to deny access to a member of Congress who serves on the Homeland Security Committee. "I find it inexplicable and probably reflective of the usual, knee-jerk overextension of executive power that we see from this White House," Ornstein said. This is the first time DeFazio has been denied access to documents. DeFazio has asked Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., to help him access the documents. "Maybe the people who think there's a conspiracy out there are right," DeFazio said.

The outrageous gutting of FISA-- the foreign intelligence surveillance act. And by "foreign" they now mean domestic. Because if you are inside the US making an international call, the government can now monitor that call with only the approval of Alberto Gonzales, the Torture Guy.
''...he described his treatment in troubling detail. "They tortured me and cuffed me in an act called the scorpion and pouring cold water on me," the email quotes the detainee's complaint as saying. "They tortured me from morning until the morning of the next day, and when I fell down from the severe torture I fell on the barbed wires, and then they dragged me from my feet and I was wounded and, and they punched me on my stomach.''
People just like YOU have called their representative and, so far, 15 representatives have signed on to Dennis Kucinich's Impeachment Bill!!! WITH YOUR HELP, it will be more!
This is our BIG CHANCE to get Congress to get behind the Voters! EVERYONE is sick of the Bush and Cheney Cabal!!! Let's help them pack up their SH!T and get them the F*CK out of our Government!!!
C'mon, now. Don't wait around for someone else to do this, because the "someone else" is waiting around for YOU to do it! Understand? SO, DON'T WAIT. CALL YOUR REPRESENTITIVE. SEND THEM E-MAIL'S. THEN, WRITE THEM LETTERS!!!
BE PERSISTENT!!! LET CONGRESS KNOW THEY WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR NOT HOLDING BUSH ACCOUNTABLE!!!!!
I don't think I could find any better reasons for impeachment than what Randi Rhodes has posted on her blog! Make sure you READ THE LINKS in Randi's posts! This is where you will find the BIG TRUTH BOMBS!
If you read all the information in those two posts AND THE LINKS, YOU will be "madder than a Hornet" and CALLING your Congressperson and telling them this:
"With the Executive plainly subject to an intense conflict of interest, the appointment of an independent special prosecutor - as occurred in the Valerie Plame leak case - is necessary. But unlike in the leak case, here, the entire Executive branch, including the Department of Justice, is implicated. So, to ensure fairness, Congress or a court must mandate the appointment.
"If the President can intentionally violate the laws of this nation, then the fundamental structure of our government has been forever altered."
You will call your congressperson, right?! Do you need to make a note to remember? Please don't forget about this!

Thousands of people have already told their stories (see below) urging the FCC to protect Net Neutrality. Now it's your turn:
You need to act now before the FCC closes its comment period. If we flood them with comments in support of Net Neutrality, the FCC will be pressed to stand up to the giant phone and cable companies that seek to undermine free choice on the Web.

This may be the best chance we have this year to demonstrate to Washington that protecting the free and open Internet is an issue that matters to millions of Americans. The FCC needs to know why Net Neutrality is important to you. Tell them how an open Internet impacts your daily life, your business and your ability to connect with others.
To save the Internet, we need to flood the FCC with stories from people around the country. Can you ask five friends to send their stories to the FCC?

Recent proposals in the U.S. Congress are taking a huge swipe at freedom in America once again by aiming to impose multiple different forms of crippling taxation and restriction on users of the internet.
Several bills were introduced last week that could see all manner of new forms of internet taxation become a reality before the end of the year.
Make no mistake, the internet, one of the greatest outposts of free speech ever created is under constant attack by powerful people who cannot operate within a society where information flows freely and unhindered. Both American and European moves mimic stories we hear every week out of State Controlled Communist China, where the internet is strictly regulated and virtually exists as its own entity away from the rest of the web.
The Internet is freedom's best friend and the bane of control freaks. Its eradication is one of the short term goals of those that seek to centralize power and subjugate their populations under a surveillance panopticon prison.
President George W. Bush has submitted a bill that would enact enormous, and enormously dangerous, changes to the 1978 law on eavesdropping. It would undermine the fundamental constitutional principle -- over which there can be no negotiation or compromise -- that the government must seek an individual warrant before spying on an American or someone living here legally.
Watch this video and refresh your memory on the NSA spying:
George Bush and Dick Cheney have lied the nation into a war of aggression, are spying in open violation of the law, and have sanctioned the use of torture. These are high crimes and misdemeanors that demand accountability. Since Congress doesn't seem to get it, on April 28 Americans from Miami, Florida to North Pole, Alaska are going to spell it out for them: IMPEACH!

The term "Hiding in Plain Sight" is used frequently to describe a person or thing that goes unnoticed even when viewed directly. Upon the landing of Christopher Columbus on the Caribbean Island of Hispaniola in 1492 he reported that curiously the natives could not see the Nina, the Pinta and the Santa Maria. These vessels apparently were to strange to the brains of the primitive inhabitants to even realize their existence. it wasn't until the tribal elders studied disturbances in the water that they were ultimately able to grasp the presence of the ships.
This phenomenon is with us today and many are stricken by it when exposed to artifacts from our Ancient Past. Take Salimeni's "Glorification of the Eucharist" (circa 1600 a.d.) which hangs in the Church of Lorenzo in San Pietro for example. Art experts and religious scholars are vehement that the image of Jesus and GOD the FATHER holding the antennas of a Satellite or Reconnaissance Drone are in fact perfectly normal and easily explained.

On Wednesday, Cindy Sheehan, Ann Wright, Lennox Yearwood, and about 50 other activists for peace met up on the sidewalk in front of the White House. I brought along a box containing 6,000-some pages of names and comments: about 80,000 names with cities and states, about half of them with comments beside them. These were the names of people who have signed the petition at www.DontAttackIran.org
Hmm... Is this coincidence: About 80,000 names were delivered to the Whitehouse. Ok, no big deal... US terror watchlist 80,000 names long: report. Hmmm... Coincidence or not? What do you think? Hmm... What was the deal with that controversial program where Bush was spying all about?
The media gathered around, and Cindy read the petition out loud:
"Dear President Bush and Vice President Cheney,
"We write to you from all over the United States and all over the world to urge you to obey both international and U.S. law, which forbid aggressive attacks on other nations. We oppose your proposal to attack Iran. Iran does not possess nuclear weapons, just as Iraq did not possess nuclear weapons. If Iran had such weapons, that would not justify the use of force, any more than any other nation would be justified in launching a war against the world's greatest possessor of nuclear arms, the United States. The most effective way to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons would be to closely monitor its nuclear energy program, and to improve diplomatic relations -- two tasks made much more difficult by threatening to bomb Iranian territory. We urge you to lead the way to peace, not war, and to begin by making clear that you will not commit the highest international crime by aggressively attacking Iran."

Merle Haggard- Rebuild America First "Let's liberate these United States, we're the ones that need it the most... Let's get out of Iraq, get back on the track and rebuild America first."
If Bush has lost Merle Haggard, he's lost America.

The ACLU is suing the National Security Agency for violating the U.S. Constitution. The illegal NSA spying program authorized by President Bush just after September 11, 2001, allows the NSA to intercept vast quantities of the international telephone and Internet communications of innocent Americans without court approval.
Without a system of checks and balances, the government can monitor any phone call or e-mail they want, and they can collect and disseminate any data they find however they like. Just knowing that the government is spying without cause on innocent Americans sends a chilling message to all of us that our conversations are not our own.
Here is a very interesting tool to view the relationships between Major Corporations, Institutions, Members of Boards of Directors and their connections with the U.S. Government.
You can use the "find connection" tool to trace the link between the two corporations.
Company: AT&T Director: Kenneth T. Derr Company: Haliburton Director: William R. Howell Company: Exxon Mobil Director: Donald V. Fites Company: AT&T Wireless Services
In order to establish a relationship between the corporations, a director must be on the board of each company. As you can see in this example, the only direct link, by going through members of the boards of directors, between AT&T and AT&T Wireless Services are the Haliburton and Exxon Mobil corporations. Doesn't this make you stop and think about these relationships? It puts a new perspective on things.
If you place your mouse over the resulting corporations (represented by a table) and the directors (represented by a person) you will get a menu of actions to perform. For individuals, click on "Companies" to show links to corporations of which that person is a member. For corporations, click on "Directors" to display members of that corporations Board of Directors.

Your-Rights.com believes most people would consider this to be a confession from President George W. Bush that Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with the 9/11 WTC attacks.
Just read the news in the illegal domestic spying cases where a federal court has ruled that the Bush administration's NSA wiretapping spy program to monitor the phone calls and e-mails of Americans without warrants is unconstitutional and must be stopped.
