An Uninformed Public Is a Docile Public
The Cleansing of US Public Information
By Ed Ward, MD, MT

The National Press and this government are systematically and thoroughly cleaning vast amounts of information being "granted" to "The People" via the US news, media and public government documents, to keep the "The People" content. Some articles are simply ignored by the National Free Press . If a factual article is picked up, there is a cleansing of facts/information prior to reporting/releasing it. Afterwards, the entire report/article may disappear, or, just certain portions of it. No conspiracy theories, just examples of what is being done, by this government and the national media, to keep America docile while it's individuals, families, and masses suffer, some to extinction . Theories are debatable. Facts require conclusions. If the readers take the links to these articles, they should realize the only news/information that is fit to print is the information coming from outside the US or from a few internet e-publishers. The readers can see for themselves the huge spectrum of information that is being deleted or rewritten.

America’s Greatest Election Opportunity
By Ted Lang © 2004

Unless you have been in total solitary confinement at Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo, Boston or any one of the growing and rapidly expanding American prisons, gulags and citizen detention centers quickly erected over the last several years, you may not be aware of the total futility of voting in the upcoming presidential election. As writer Alan Stang so cleverly ruminates, there really isn’t much of a choice. Kerry seems to offer only a slight advantage in that he only promises to continue Bush’s Marxist policies for a New World Order. Bush has already delivered heavily in this direction.

Libertarian Commentary on The Day's News
By Nathan A. Barton © 2004

With 61 days to the next time we get to vote for our "supreme master", we find the following irreverent and often-angering comments to be those only of the author, sometimes of the cats in the household, and seldom those of anyone else. Let the reader beware!

1- TSA tries to help flyers, in typical gov fashion
FCW
No doubt it would be interesting (if frustrating) to compare this "data" to that offered by radio stations in many major cities, along with their traffic reports. For decades, waiting times and such in major airports have been a joke and frustrating - even before Sept. 01, I drove a lot more than I flew just because of that problem. Think about just the lost productivity of business travelers if the average time in line were as TSA claims!

Parents Suing For Constitutional Rights As Parents
A Parent Is A Terrible Thing To Waste

Coalition of Parents Unite in Nationwide Class Action Constitutional Challenges for Their Children and Nation

(N.O, LA) September 2, 2004 -- Representatives from across the country are announcing that on September 17, 2004, they will simultaneously file federal class action lawsuits, on behalf of an estimated 25 million noncustodial parents, demanding that rights to equal custody of their children be restored by the federal courts.

In what some are calling "the mother of all lawsuits", the parents will challenge widespread practices by the states in determining care, custody, and support of children. "Parents are tired of being mistreated as second class citizens by state courts," according to Torm L. Howse, President of the Indiana Civil Rights Council. "Most parents say they care about their children, their families, and the related unnecessary waste of their hard-earned taxdollars, more than all other political issues combined."
