 Do you Remember? posted by kit, 2012-03-19 11:28:09
you stole my peace,
and composure
and replaced my steadfastness
with love
now i am
unsettled,
frenzied
like a crazed monkey
hooting in the night
you may have forgotten me
but i have not forgotten you,
rest easy my enduring love
once touched by this divine madness
you can never return
to the world of transitory illusion
there is no reality outside
Love
what appears as the world
is tribulation, tragedy and woe,
a mirage of the mind
a trick of fate
necessary to guide us
to love's enduring wonder
and return us safely
to our rightful place
in Paradise (full story)

The Fear of Dissent and the Road to Totalitarianism posted by frank, 2012-03-19 01:20:19
It doesn’t get much worse than indefinite detention without trial or charge and ‘legal’ assassinations of citizens on secret executive order – even mass murdering Stalin couldn’t get-away with both of those draconian impositions on his people. But American whipped-dog SLAVES lap it up and beg for more! So, not unexpectedly, the latest 'order' puppet president to the plutocrats, Obama, has signed reinforces the totalitarian direction the nation is taking. Unrestrained by law or civil government, you are now officially dispossessed, signed, Emperor of Amerika, Barack Obama! (full story and 6 comments)

  Kandahar Massacre: Pentagon/Washington Caught Lying yet AGAIN! posted by staff report via stele, 2012-03-17 23:04:16
It should come as no surprise that a military organisation that exonerates murderers of women and children in Iraq -- Haditha massacre -- LIES and attempts to deceive the public with mindless and FEEBLE stories of recent massacres of women and children in Afghanistan! The Pentagon and Washington are clearly lawless, CRIMINAL organisations, plain to see! The USA remains the world's leading civilian killing, THEREFORE TERRORIST nation, in the WORLD today!

This latest tragic fatality (of many since this lethal, now superceded, Taser model was introduced) should once and for all explode the MYTH that Tasers are a non-lethal weapon! (full story and 2 comments)

 Assange to run for Oz Parliament posted by fanny, 2012-03-16 22:49:52
It seems the only qualification required to become an Oz Parliamentarian these days is how well you can suck American dick, or expressed more tactfully, how well Aussie pollies can kowtow and 'kneewalk' in Washington! (full story)

 Kony 2012 Video creator arrested for Masturbating in Public posted by staff report via stan, 2012-03-16 21:27:00
In a fateful twist one of the con-artists responsible (Jason Russell) for the Kony 2012 viral video was arrested by San Diego police for 'masturbating in public' and 'acting strangely,' really!

"Towbacks," a Radical but Effective Solution to Indonesian Corruption posted by mitch, 2012-03-15 08:13:30
A very shrewd opposition proposal (policy) to tow people-smuggling vessels back to their point of origin has outraged Indonesia's foreign minister, who views the very effective solution to rampant Indonesian corruption, as "impossible!" However, we can ASSURE Indonesian FM, Marty Natalegawa, that the policy would not only gain popular support in Oz, but would be an extremely feasible, effective and simple solution to the ongoing problem of people smuggling. Perhaps corrupt Indonesian regulators, police, navy personnel and politicians may now review their odorous position with regard to the lucrative business of people smuggling! (full story)

 Puppet Clowns, Cameron and Obama -- "making progress!" [LOL!] posted by baz, 2012-03-15 02:14:19
How many years has the USA and its puppet allies been "making progress" in Afghanistan and avoiding international war crimes courts? Take a wild guess then look at the language of the following report especially the oft repeated but UNDEFINED "mission" word. History dictates that America's 'mission' is criminal invasion, occupation, assassination, regime change, plunder and the mass murder of civilians; any dreamboat that thinks otherwise, after a DECADE of lost wars and recorded heinous crimes, is SORELY DELUDED!

 Uganda Agenda: The Kony Ruse posted by Bruce A. Dixon via watson, 2012-03-15 01:13:37
Thanks to relentless promotion by Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Bloomberg News, ABC, CBS, Oprah, celebrities and politicians of both corporate parties, along with right wing church groups and foundations, the Kony 2012 video has “gone viral.” Viewed on YouTube more than a hundred million times by now, it paints a vivid and simple picture, clear enough, its narrator says, for a five year old to understand [the propaganda con and 'perception management' strategy].
