Democratic Senators Issue Strong Warning About Use of the Patriot Act

By Charlie Savage

A handful of Democrats on the Senate intelligence committee have warned that the government is secretly interpreting its surveillance powers under the Patriot Act in a way that would be alarming if the public, or even others in Congress, knew about it.

Total Information Awareness: Sweeping New Surveillance Measures Approved in US

Charlie Savage, The New York Times News Service: ''The Obama administration is moving to relax restrictions on how counterterrorism analysts may retrieve, store and search information about Americans gathered by government agencies for purposes other than national security threats.... The guidelines will lengthen to five years, from 180 days, the amount of time the center can retain private information about Americans when there is no suspicion that they are tied to terrorism, intelligence officials said.''

Why Republicans Aren Not Mentioning the Real Cause of Rising Prices at the Gas Pump

Robert Reich, Robert Reich s Blog: ''As I have noted before, oil supplies aren t being squeezed. Over 80 percent of America s energy needs are now being satisfied by domestic supplies. But Wall Street is betting on higher oil prices in the future - and that betting is causing prices to rise. These bets are pushing up oil prices because Wall Street firms and other big financial players now dominate oil trading.''

Big oil, big government, and big hypocrisy

Libertarian Alliance
by Kevin Carson

03/19/12

It s interesting that politicians who so tirelessly proclaim their opposition to government meddling in the economy, and deny the effectiveness of such meddling, would express such hubris on the ability of activist government to solve an economic problem. Not only do these people fail to understand the nature of the problem they are promising to fix, but the promised fix itself is chock full of government intervention...

Occupy Wall Street Has Told You So

J.A. Myerson, Truthout: ''The police were very careful to block all entrances to Goldman Sachs' global headquarters, which the march's route passed. As always, they caught an earful from the protesters whose point they were demonstrating. 'Your back is turned to the real crooks,' one protester harangued. Another piped up, 'You should be protecting us from them, not protecting them from us.''

Michael Winship, Moyers & Co.: ''Inspector General David Montoya said, 'I believe the reports we just released will leave the reader asking one question: how could so many people have participated in this misconduct?

Camilo A. Ramirez and Marcus Michelsen, Truthout: ''We, the people, the fourth branch of government, are in a race against the clock to establish explicit constitutional safeguards against our government's aggression. By wielding both the accusation of terrorism and the remedy against it, the executive branch has taken over the role of creating the legal regime through which it operates.''

Mutually assured madness

In These Times
by George Kenney

03/14/12

In terms of nuclear nonproliferation, the West s clash with Iran over its nuclear program appears to make sense. But once one peels back the layers of rhetoric surrounding the West s demands, our real priority seems to be regime change. Those opposed to an unnecessary war with Iran are thus faced with two complicated challenges: First, to debunk the manufactured hysteria over Iranian nuclear activities, and second, to make explicit the unexamined assumptions behind the use of regime change as a default reaction...

Obama targets journalists

Salon
by Jesselyn Raddack

04/09/12

While the Bush administration treated whistleblowers unmercifully, the Obama administration has been far worse. It is actually prosecuting them, and doing so under the Espionage Act, one of the most serious charges that can be leveled against an American. The Espionage Act is an archaic World War I-era law meant to go after spies, not whistleblowers. Strangely, using it to target the media and sources is the brainchild of neo-conservative Gabriel Schoenfeld, who would have sources who disclose information to reporters, journalists who then write about it for newspapers, the newspapers that publish the information and the publisher itself all be held criminally liable...

Massacre fatigue in Afghanistan

CounterPunch

Americans have been expressing bafflement that there has not been more outrage in Afghanistan about the latest lethal rampage. Afghans could be forgiven for suffering 'massacre fatigue,' precisely because 'authorized military activity' by US troops and special forces in Afghanistan has long since degenerated into a lethal culture of assassination, 'revenge' sorties, desecration of bodies, harvesting of trophies such as severed fingers, ears and the like. In the recent past Afghans have also been able to study photographs of laughing American soldiers pissing on the bodies of dead Afghans...

The Brotherhood Of The Free

by Pastor Chuck Baldwin

It doesn?t matter that Mitt Romney is a Mormon, or that Newt Gingrich is a Catholic, or that Rick Santorum is a Catholic. What matters is that not one of them is part of The Brotherhood of the Free. Not one of them has a clue as to what the real principles of liberty and constitutional government are all about. Not one of them recognizes the New World Order, the emerging police state, or the foolhardiness of perpetual war, whatever church they attend notwithstanding!

You Are All Suspects Now: What Are You Going to Do About It?

John Pilger, Truthout: ''You are all potential terrorists. It matters not that you live in Britain, the United States, Australia or the Middle East. Citizenship is effectively abolished. Turn on your computer and the US Department of Homeland Security s National Operations Center may monitor whether you are typing not merely 'al-Qaeda,' but 'exercise,' 'drill,' 'wave'?.

Robert Weissman, YES! Magazine: ''The last few years have seen a series of corporate catastrophes, for which the perpetrator companies have escaped any meaningful accountability. Big banks and giant Wall Street firms tricked and ripped off homeowners and investors, and crashed the national and global economy. BP s reckless operations poisoned the Gulf of Mexico in one of the worst oil disasters in history. Massey Energy s cost-cutting led to the Upper Big Branch coal mine collapse that killed 29 workers.''

Karen Rybold Chin, Truthout: ''I d interviewed Bill Ayers many times over several years, mostly about public education policy and school and classroom reform.

We met in the album archive room of WORT Community Radio, and I asked Bill to reflect a bit about 'revolution'.''

Youth in Revolt: The Plague of State-Sponsored Violence

Henry A. Giroux, Truthout: ''As young people make diverse claims on the promise of a radical democracy, articulating what a fair and just world might be, they are increasingly met with forms of physical, ideological and structural violence.... What must be addressed in the most immediate sense is the threat the emerging police state in the United States poses not to just the young protesters occupying a number of American cities, but also the threat it poses to democracy itself.''

Infiltration of Political Movements Is the Norm, Not the Exception in the United States

Kevin Zeese and Margaret Flowers, Occupy Washington, DC: ''When the long history of political infiltration is reviewed, the Occupy Movement should be surprised if it is not infiltrated.

Niedriglohnbeschäftigung 2010: Fast jede(r) Vierte arbeitet für Niedriglohn

IAQ-Report 2012-01 von Thorsten Kalina und Claudia Weinkopf vom 14.3.2012 (pdf) http://www.iaq.uni-due.de/iaq-report/2012/report2012-01.pdf

''Auf den Punkt ... Im Jahr 2010 arbeiteten 23,1% der Beschäftigten für einen Niedriglohn von unter 9,15 ?.; Bezieht man SchülerInnen, Studierende und RentnerInnen mit ein, waren gut 7,9 Millionen abhängig Beschäftigte von Niedriglöhnen betroffen.; Die Zunahme der Zahl der Niedriglohnbeschäftigten seit 1995 geht fast ausschließlich auf Westdeutschland zurück.; Die Durchschnittslöhne im Niedriglohnsektor lagen im Jahr 2010 mit 6,68 ? in West- und 6,52 ? pro Stunde in Ostdeutschland weit unter der Niedriglohnschwelle.; Gut 4,1 Millionen Beschäftigte (12%) verdienen weniger als 7 ? brutto pro Stunde und davon 1,4 Millionen sogar weniger als 5 ?. Ostdeutsche, Frauen und MinijobberInnen sind von solchen Niedrigstlöhnen überproportional betroffen.; Bei Einführung eines gesetzliches Mindestlohnes von 8,50 ? hätte jede(r) fünfte Beschäftigte Anspruch auf eine Lohnerhöhung (gut 25% der Frauen und knapp 15% der Männer).''

Siehe dazu: Niedriglohn-Debatte: Sozialverband ruft zu Protesten auf

''Der Sozialverband Deutschland (SoVD) fordert umgehende Maßnahmen gegen die unkontrollierte Ausbreitung des Niedriglohnsektors in Deutschland. ''Millionen Menschen arbeiten, ohne von ihrem Lohn leben zu können. Es ist jetzt ein entschlossenes Durchgreifen der Bundesregierung erforderlich, um diese Gefahr zu bannen'', erklärte SoVD-Präsident Adolf Bauer anlässlich der heute veröffentlichten Studie des Instituts Arbeit und Qualifikation der Universität Duisburg-Essen??

Was uns Arbeit wert ist

Fast acht Millionen Menschen in Deutschland schuften für Minieinkommen. Mindestlöhne können helfen. Aber darüber hinaus stellt sich noch eine viel grundsätzlichere Frage. Artikel von Verena Schmitt-Roschmann in Freitag vom 16.03.2012 http://www.freitag.de/politik/1211-gastkommentar2

Aus dem Text: ''(?) Die Wahrheit ist doch: Es gibt keinen echten Markt für diese Jobs. Niemand würde eine Bezahlung unterhalb des Existenzminimums akzeptieren, wenn nicht das Amt mit Hartz-Sanktionen drohte. Es ist ein künstlich geschaffenes Billig­proletariat ohne Rechte, das für uns Arbeit erledigt, die uns nichts wert ist. Ist Sicherheit wichtig? Dann bezahlt den Wachmann anständig. Ist es essentiell, nachts um eins die kaputten Schuhe zu reklamieren? Dann gebt dem Mann an der Beschwerde-Hotline gescheites Geld. Was ist was wert? Das ist die fundamentale Frage, die auch ein Mindestlohn nicht lösen wird. Auch wenn der den ärmsten der Niedriglöhner zunächst einmal weiter hilft.''

Is unauthorized war-making an impeachable offense? Certainly. As Hamilton explains in 'The Federalist,' the impeachment power serves as 'an essential check in the hands of that body upon encroachments of the executive,' aimed at 'those offenses which proceed from the misconduct of public men, or, in other words, from the abuse or violation of some public trust.' Given the many abuses of public trust committed by presidents over two centuries of constitutional history, isn t it surprising we have only had two and a half presidential impeachments?

The Dispossessed Majority

By Paul Craig Roberts

It is easy to beat up on Democrats. Bush and Cheney and their neocon hoodlums destroyed the Constitution and, thereby, America. But the Democrats let them. It was Nancy Pelosi, who as Speaker of the House stridently declared Bush s impeachment to be ''off the table.''

Was Soldier-Shooter in Afghanistan Redeployed With PTSD?

Ralph Lopez, War Is A Crime: ''The Army is keeping mum on whether the Army sergeant who went on a rampage in Afghanistan has ever been evaluated or asked for evaluation for PTSD, but it is well known that in recent years the culture of the military has been to sweep such problems under the rug, in order to redeploy as many soldiers as possible. The Army has acknowledged that the soldier had been diagnosed with a 'traumatic brain injury' after a vehicle rollover in Iraq.''

Why 21st Century Oil Will Break the Bank and the Planet

Michael T. Klare, TomDispatch: ''Oil prices are now higher than they have ever been except for a few frenzied moments before the global economic meltdown of 2008. Many immediate factors are contributing to this surge, including Iran s threats to block oil shipping in the Persian Gulf, fears of a new Middle Eastern war, and turmoil in energy-rich Nigeria.''

Walter Jones declares that it is an impeachable offense for a president to authorize military action against another country without consent from Congress...
