 They Are Taking Our Rights Away, Again.
rique, Monday, May 7 2012, 9:58pm
Does it take a 93 year old black woman to take the lead and drive a point home in the cringing USA? Viviette Applewhite disgraced more able younger Americans by launching a court action against draconian new laws. (story and 1 comment)

This is the gut-turning disgraceful, murdering, racist, scumbag nation the US unconditionally supports! (story and 6 comments and 2 images and 1 audio file)

The IMMORAL Majority
jude, Sunday, Feb 19 2012, 6:03am
Don’t kid yourselves, Americans are brutal and stupid the world knows, but they are NOT stupid to the point of falling for a repeat performance of the Iraq war ruse on Iran; do you also imagine that Americans fell for the ‘humanitarian intervention’ a la Kosovo style in Libya? Right again, almost a perfect repeat performance of the LIES that led to the illegal excision of Kosovo from sovereign Yugoslavia and the largest American military base of occupation (Bondsteel) in continental Europe. The LAW is meaningless where civilian killing America is concerned AND EVERY AMERICAN KNOWS IT! (story and 3 comments and 1 image)

Oz Banks Shedding Loyal Staff Again
lynx, Thursday, Feb 9 2012, 7:36am
Australian banks are “restructuring” -- a euphemism for sacking workers no longer required by highly profitable banks – that’s right, the sackings are NOT the result of economic pressures. Banks are slowly displacing once valued and indispensible workers with computer programs. Very little effort was directed at retraining staff, as the banks require a smaller compliment of workers, they wanted these workers off the books PERMANENTLY! (story and 3 comments and 2 images)

US Senate Passes Indefinite Detention on 'Suspicion' Bill
baz, Friday, Dec 2 2011, 7:48pm
The US Senate recently passed a military spending Bill, which included a provision that allows the corrupt State to apprehend and detain citizens without trial or charge INDEFINITELY on SUSPICION of terrorist activities! Anyone who has ever been tortured and verballed by criminal ruling authorities is aware of the full implications of this undisguised Nazi Bill.
It is a very sad day in the history of a nation that was ONCE the bastion of Democracy and Freedom -- R.I.P The American Constitution and Bill of Rights. (story and 2 comments)

Reprehensible, Ungodly, Criminal Obama
reed, Monday, Nov 28 2011, 10:05pm
First let me state plainly that Obama is a willing servile puppet of the financial and corporate ruling elites; he was/is the second choice option for the office of president – you would remember first choice, Colin Powell, who declined the offer for personal reasons. (story and 1 image)

Sayonara US Democracy -- Banker/Corporate controlled Police Brutalise Peaceful Protesters
quill, Monday, Nov 21 2011, 9:49pm
The featured video highlights all the hypocrisy, double standards and the grim Truth of America today. What you see is pure unadulterated Police State tactics against non-provocative, peaceful students. This is not footage from Latin America or totalitarian regimes abroad -- it's good ol' Police State, USA. (story and 2 comments and 1 image)

Oz Court Ruling: the price of a murdered Aboriginal life, $285,000!
zayn, Thursday, Jul 7 2011, 2:35am
It is no secret that Australia is one of the world’s most racist nations; former PM John Howard won elections appealing to the Anglo racist population (now in the minority I would add). However, the two states that lead the nation in this disgraceful myopic world view are Western Australia and Queensland. (story and 2 images)

TSA employee touches miss USA's CUNT numerous times

I am known as a street rough and habitual cusser, not the sort of person easily upset, yet this video -- made spontaneously by Miss America, Susie Castillo, after being molested by a TSA employee -- I found extremely disturbing for a number of reasons, not least of which is the demeaning experience of having one's genitals groped in public by a perfect stranger!
