BUSH THREATENING IRAN and LIES ABOUT WANTING TO TALK FIRST!

2008-07-04T00:40:53Z

Wilkerson says what Dr. Rice has been saying is fairly consistent with what the administration's position has been and that is, that Iran must stop enrichment before talks can happen. I think that's absurd. Setting such conditions is a route to no talks at all, which is why Cheney advocates such a policy. Iran made a serious approach in 2003 to talk, Cheney made the State department turn it down. The plan was for regime change throughout the Middle East.

FLDS Children forced Vaccinations against the Parents wishes

2008-07-08T16:03:47Z

Texas authorities have asked foster care providers to immunize every FLDS child - despite some parents' concerns about possible negative effects. The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services sent letters to 16 group homes and shelters this week asking them to line up shots for the children. "It appears to be a totally unimmunized population," said Patrick Crimmins, department spokesman. "We're the legal parents of the children and we would like for them to be
immunized." Crimmins said the state requires all children in custody to be immunized for their "health and safety." He said no one would be forced to get inoculations; older children specifically would have the opportunity to decline the shots. A Dallas attorney called the demand "outrageous." "The truth is [FLDS parents] don't kow what to do," said Polly R. O'Toole, who represents one child. "They would prefer to make that decision. But they are afraid to exercise any options out of fear they will be perceived as uncooperative by CPS." Rod Parker, a Salt Lake City attorney who has acted as a spokesman for the FLDS, said some children have been immunized but their health records are in Utah. Willie Jessop, an FLDS member and spokesman, said some parents have immunized their children and some have not. "It's an individual decision," he said. But the parents "oppose forced mandates of things happening to their children they don't even know about."

APPELLATE Court OVERTURNS POLYGAMIST CUSTODY DECISION!

2008-07-01T00:18:14Z

Appellate court overturns polygamist sect custody decision
May 22nd, 2008 @ 12:00pm
Team coverage

A state appellate court has ruled that child welfare officials had no right to seize more than 400 children living at a polygamist sect's ranch.

The Third Court of Appeals in Austin ruled that the grounds for removing the children were "legally and factually insufficient" under Texas law. They did not immediately order the return of the children.

The Texas Rio Grande Legal Aide Society (TRLA)represented 48 FLDS mothers. TRLA attorney Julie Balovich said, "The way that the courts have ignored the legal rights of these mothers is ridiculous. It was about time a court stood up and said that was, has been happening to these families is wrong."

Patrick Crimmins, CPS spokesman released a statement. It said, "We just received the information from the court of appeals, and it's being reviewed. We are trying to assess the impact this will have on our case. Any decision regarding an appeal will be made later."

The woman who helped send FLDS leader Warren Jeffs to prison says she has mixed feelings about fundamentalist children returning to the parents

Elissa Wall says she feels for the FLDS children in Texas protective custody but believes this could hamper the state's investigation.

She says, "And the sad thing is, is these people is so sequestered, and they are so secret that we don't know if these children will just disappear now, once they go back."

The former FLDS child bride tells KSL's "Doug Wright Show" that she worked with officials in the Lone Star State and says this may have never happened if members of the ranch would have been upfront and honest. She believes CPS officials did the right thing after entering the ranch.

Child welfare officials removed the children on the grounds that the sect pushed underage girls into marriage and sex and trained boys to become future perpetrators.

The appellate court ruled the chaotic hearing held last month did not demonstrate the children were in any immediate danger, the only measure of taking children from their homes without court proceedings.

COURT says Texas had NO RIGHT to take POLYGAMIST'S CHILDREN

2008-07-01T08:18:15Z

The state of Texas should not have removed the more than 460 children it took from a polygamist sect's ranch because it didn't prove they were in "imminent enough" danger, an appeals court ruled Thursday.
In its ruling, the Texas 3rd District Court of Appeals decided in favor of 38 women who had appealed the removals, as well as a decision last month by a district judge that the children will remain in state custody.
"The existence of the FLDS belief system as described by the department's witnesses, by itself, does not put children of FLDS parents in physical danger," the three-judge panel said.
An attorney representing the mothers said the trial court that originally backed the state's seizure of the children has 10 days to vacate its decision. If it doesn't, the appeals court will act, said Julie Balovich of the Texas RioGrande Legal Aid.
"It is a great day for families in the state of Texas," she said.

Joe Lieberman and his Homeland Security wants to police youtube and has you tube come under fire again. Now there is a difference between training videos and recruitment videos and the ones he wants taken down

Many of the videos produced by one of the production arms of al Qaeda show attacks on U.S. forces in which American soldiers are injured and, in some cases, killed," wrote Lieberman, an independent from Connecticut.

If that is the case why is there video of soldiers killing iraqi's?? Is that right too? Homeland Security and Joe Lieberman is going to far!

Rosie O'Donnell 911 Rant Reaches 30 Million Viewers

2008-06-12T09:35:18Z

Rosie O'Donnell is certainly not backing away from her public stance about 9/11, and this morning on The View went on a 9 minute rant about the many questions surrounding the attack, reaching around 30 million viewers in the process.

This is the largest single exposure 9/11 truth has enjoyed to date and it represents a watershed moment in the quest to bring the truth to the masses.

Rosie O'Donnell is certainly not backing away from her public stance about 9/11, and this morning on The View went on a rant about the many questions surrounding the collapse of Building 7, reaching around 30 million viewers in the process.

This is the largest single exposure 9/11 truth has enjoyed to date and it represents a watershed moment in the quest to bring the truth to the masses.
O'Donnell and her co-panelists debate the situation concerning Iran's seizure of the British marines before O'Donnell states, "Historically, have governments ever faked incidents or incited incidents in order to get them into wars?"

The discussion then moves on to the level of trust one can place in the Bush administration before O'Donnell asks, "What do you have to do to get an impeachment in this country?"

The debate moves on to the "propaganda of the war on terror," with O'Donnell stating, "In America we are fed propaganda and if you want to know what's happening in the world go outside of the U.S. media because it's owned by four corporations, one of them is this one (ABC)."

"Go outside of the country to find out what's going on in our own country because it's frightening."

"I think Democracy is threatened in a way it hasn't been in 200 years and if America doesn't stand up we're in big trouble," says O'Donnell.

Neo-Con panelist Elizabeth Hasselbeck tries to make an argument that thinking Iraq was involved in 9/11 was justifiable at the time, before asking O'Donnell if she believed the U.S. government had anything to do with 9/11.

"No, but I do believe it's the first time in history that fire has melted steel - I do believe that it defies physics for the World Trade Center Building 7, which collapsed in on itself, it is impossible for a building to fall the way it fell without explosives being involved - World Trade Center 7."

"One and two got hit by planes, 7 miraculously the first time in history, steel was melted by fire - it is physically impossible," states O'Donnell.

"I don't know but to say we don't know and it was imploded in a demolition is beyond ignorant, look at the films get a physics expert here from Yale, from Harvard, pick the school, it defies reason."
n a video blog posted on her website yesterday, O'Donnell promised to feature physics professors on The View to discuss the highly suspicious collapse of the WTC towers.

"The thing about World Trade Center 7 is that it was totally left out of the 9/11 Commission - that's weird," said O'Donnell.
"It's only the third time in history that fire has brought down a steel building, the other two times it happened was on the same day, World Trade Center One and World Trade Center Two - they both crumbled into dust and it was steel - very odd."

"I wanna have some physics professors on the show to explain if that is actually possible, that World Trade Center 7 could have imploded the way it did without being a controlled demolition - and if it was a controlled demolition why didn't they just tell people that in the 9/11 Commission Report?"

The New Republic's 2008 Guide to the Candidates: A Celebration.

In early 2005, Editor Frank Foer made a commitment to covering the 2008 presidential candidates with a fresh lens. This "fresh" angle included profiles of major contenders from both political parties. The effort was met with a hugely positive response. Of the Barack Obama profile, George Stephanopolous said, "The New Republic has the best and most comprehensive take on Obama that I have seen." The profiles have now been compiled into a book - TNR's 2008 Guide to the Candidates - along with news, analysis, and insight into the individuals running in the broadest presidential field in decades - Sixth & I Historic Synagogue

Michael Crowley is an American journalist, and currently senior editor and columnist at The New Republic magazine. He is also a frequent contributor to GQ magazine, Slate.com, the Readers Digest, and the Washington City Paper. He guest-blogged for a time at Talking Points Memo.

He grew up in New Haven, Connecticut, graduating from Philips Exeter Academy in 1990 and Yale in 1994.

Fox News' Bill O'Reilly Forgets to Apologize for Blaming the Victim of Sexual Abuse?
