Incoming House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Joe Barton, R-Texas, praised Clear Channel's actions. ``That sets a good standard,'' he said.

Though the data are not as perfect at the metropolitan level, other cities are also beating us for fresh new talent, diversity, and brainpower. Vancouver and Toronto are set to take off: Both city-regions have a higher concentration of immigrants than New York, Miami, or Los Angeles. So too are Sydney and Melbourne.
Without these immigrants, our high-tech economy would be unthinkable. Intel, Sun Microsystems, Google: All were founded or co-founded by immigrants from places like Russia, India, and Hungary. Nearly a third of all businesses founded in Silicon Valley during the 1990s were started by Chinese- or Indian-born entrepreneurs, according to the detailed statistical research of Annalee Saxenian of the University of California at Berkeley. And thousands upon thousands more constitute the technical core of our high-tech economy.
Using Internal Revenue Service data, he found that families moving from Austin, a high-tech boomtown, to slower-growth Kansas City in the 1990s earned an average of $25,912 a year. Those going in the other direction, from Kansas City to Austin, earned over $65,000.

If the monopoly press designates someone as their "hero", not enough peons are suspicious.

The Dean campaign was one indicator of the broad and intense popular disaffection with the Bush presidency, something that has only been underscored by the Democratic primaries, in which exit polls show significant numbers of voters describing their attitude toward the president as one of ?anger? or ?hatred.?

The Bush administration is utilizing an armed rebellion by fascistic thugs in the north and center of Haiti to effect a longstanding goal of regime change in the impoverished Caribbean nation.
In reality, Haiti is confronting two interconnected coups, one in the north and one in the south, both of them led by individuals who are intimately connected to the US government.

Moving on to what is perhaps the most bizarre aspect of the case, we come now to the infamous videotape. You know, the one that was made in 1997, two years before the actual assault, and which "depicts gun-toting, trench coat-wearing students moving through Columbine's halls and ends with a special-effects explosion of the school." The one that was co-produced by "the son of the FBI's lead agent in the investigation" (Associated Press, May 8, 1999).
First, we have the son of the lead investigator, who was obviously a member of the so-called Trenchcoat Mafia, involved in the filming of a pre-enactment of the crime. Then we have a second son of the lead investigator being at ground zero of the rampage. And finally we have a close associate of both the Fuselier brothers and of Harris and Klebold (and a co-filmmaker) being in the company of the shooters immediately before they entered the school, this by his own admission. And yet, strangely enough, none of them was connected in any way to the commission of this crime, according to official reports.

It would appear then that the true goals of the SDI/Star Wars plan are considerably different than those which have been sold to the American people. What is actually being built is an awesome new tool of global imperialism. But what does all of this have to do with the loss of the Mars probes?
The answer could well be that the Mars probes weren't actually lost at all. They may very well have performed exactly as designed, though that design had nothing to do with exploring the planet Mars. It may have had a lot more to do with deploying various components of the Star Wars system.
The problem for U.S. military planners is that some of the parts of the space-based weapons system are quite large. As such, they require a rather powerful rocket to place them into their assigned positions. And launching rockets into space for military purposes is a definite international no-no.
The solution then is to launch them instead for benign, high-minded scientific purposes. Then after they have deployed their payloads, fulfilling their true purpose, they can drift harmlessly off towards Mars, where they will, alas, become lost.

Adolf Hitler knew a little bit about the fine art of lying. In Mein Kampf, he wrote that: "If you're going to tell a lie, make sure it's a really fucking big one." OK, my German's not that great so that may not be an exact translation, but it captures the gist of what the future Fuhrer was saying.
He went on to explain that this was so because everyone in their everyday lives tells little lies, and so they fully expect others to do so as well (which is why, by the way, you should never lie about getting a blow job from an intern). But most people do not expect anyone to tell a real whopper. You know, the kind of brazen, outlandish lie that is just too absurd to actually be a lie.
The kind of lie that is so over-the-top that no one would dare to utter it if it wasn't in fact the truth.


On December 4th 2000, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of - big fucking surprise - George W. Bush (five of the nine Injustices were appointed by the Bush and Reagan administrations, and two others by Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford). The blatantly fascistic decision was strangely unsigned, demonstrating that while the court is in fact filled with spawns of Satan, none of them has the integrity to own up to their fascist leanings.

As disturbing as it may be to contemplate, the answer to the question of what really happened to flight 93 could be that it was shot down precisely because the passengers were able to overpower the hijackers, or at least were making an attempt to do so. It could be that the very heroism for which they have been cynically praised by the Bush regime may have earned them a summary execution.

Just one week before the September 11 attacks, the New York Times reported that U.S. biological weapons research was still very much alive-and-well, though cloaked as always as 'defensive' research:
"Over the past several years, the United States has embarked on a program of secret research on biological weapons that, some officials say, tests the limits of the global treaty banning such weapons ... The projects, which have not been previously disclosed, were begun under President Clinton and have been embraced by the Bush administration, which intends to expand them." (9)
The BBC has reported that: "Niaz Naik, a former Pakistani Foreign Secretary, was told by senior American officials in mid-July that military action against Afghanistan would go ahead by the middle of October."

Perhaps the most disturbing question raised by the attacks is what exactly caused the twin towers of the WTC to collapse. The impact of the planes affected only the upper floors of the towers; their foundations were unaffected. The UK's Guardian acknowledged that the initial impact of the aircraft would result in less stress on the building than is normally caused by high winds. The buildings were specifically designed to handle such horizontal movement.
