A failed Administration:
Corrupt and Criminal Contempt
To
acquiesce in allowing corruption to run rampant is to become
a collaborator.
If you are against torture, secret prisons,
covert propaganda campaigns, and
violations of national and
international law, you must contact your elected
representatives
in Congress and demand that George W. Bush be impeached.
Considering the Bush administration's history of corruption and
scandal, Bill Clinton's impeachment may prove to have been a
trivial waste of resources by comparison.
This time around we
are talking about possible treason and violations of federal and
international and law by the US President and his advisors.

LEAVING A PERMANENT MARK ON IRAQ
Tom Engelhardt, Tomdispatch.com No matter how much the military hems and haws about
withdrawing from Iraq, the bases we're installing tell the real story.

The AFL-CIO labor union has found that UnionFacts.com is a front group designed to stealthily aid business groups. AFL-CIO spokeswoman Esmerelda Aguilar sent AlterNet a document stating in part:
Unionfacts.com is a project of the Chamber of Commerce, according to an anonymous source. In a meeting of the State Chambers of Commerce National Conference held on Sanibel Island in Florida on Jan. 26, the Chamber announced it was spending $8 million a year to launch this anti-union website.
Berman's rebuttal to this charge, as reported by the New York Times, is that "when he spoke at the conference, [Berman] neither asked for nor received contributions. Rather, he said, he asked chamber officials to recommend that businesses in their states donate to his efforts."
It's this kind of sly language, hinging on technicalities,
that has kept the origin of the anti-union smear campaign under
wraps. Richard Berman is not in the business of finding
solutions. He's a generator of PR smear campaigns to benefit the
many corporations to which he is beholden.
