text New PATRIOT Act Legislation Destroys Liberty Populist 2005-05-28 11:37 PM
The Fourth Amendment reads as follows: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."

Filibuster Wars
Filibuster Wars Power Grab at the Height of the Empire http://rwor.org/a/004/filibuster-wars.htm The Senate was heading for a major showdown, as the Republican majority and Vice President Cheney conspired to strip the Democrat minority of their ability to even filibuster the most extreme judicial nominees. Then, after playing chicken for two weeks, a "Gang of 14" Senators suddenly announced they had reached a "historic compromise based on mutual trust" -- and they announced that they had saved the Senate from destruction. And the media oohed-and-aaaahed over the last minute development. But it quickly became pretty obvious, that nothing here was an obstacle to the most dangerous plans for remaking the courts. And did the compromise "safe the filibuster" as the media said? In fact, the compromise said "If you don't take the filibuster, we promise not to use it." Which, if you think about it, gives the top reactionaries what they want. Part of this "compromise" is that the Democrats immediately stopped their opposition to Precilla Owen and several other of Bush's judicial nominees -- these are people who are literally monsters of an extreme kind, who had been stalled in the Senate (in some cases for years.) So this "compromise" meant that these vultures are headed for powerful courts. And, it is also clear that huge new showdowns lie just ahead -- as the White House and Senate brace for a struggle over putting extreme rightwing judges on the supreme court. The following article (written just before the "compromise" was announced) lays bare the stakes and dynamics of this whole crisis. (image/jpeg)

text Tell the FCC: stop covert commercial propaganda on TV Commercial Alert 2005-05-26 10:47 AM

text Why Such Drastic Changes Sought by Neo-cons? D. Burbeck 2005-05-25 7:29 PM
Of course it is the inevitable, looming oil crisis that awaits the US (because of her thirst for oil) that has given this Administration the justification to invade Iraq on the "pack of lies" (1. Honorable George Galloway) that came out of this White House. That, although not justified in many people's minds, is pretty much understood by the rank and file. (text/plain)

text Avakian on mandates duko 2005-05-23 7:57 PM
<p id="byline">by Bob Avakian, Chairman of the Revolutionary Communist Party, USA</p> <p id="issueinfo"><cite>Revolution #3</cite>, May 22, 2005, posted at revcom.us</p> <div class="ednote"> <strong>EDITORS' NOTE:</strong> This is part of a series of excerpts on various subjects—drawn from conversations and discussions, as well as more formal talks, by Bob Avakian—which we will be running in this newspaper over the next period of time. This has been edited for publication and footnotes have been added. </div> <p>Bush has no legitimate mandate. The will of the people was <em>not</em> expressed in the 2004 election—not only because of voter intimidation and fraud, which there definitely was some of, but beyond all that, and most essentially, because the people were not given a real choice. They were not given a real avenue in which they could express their opposition to what is represented by Bush. The real story of what is happening and the alternative to it was never presented in the election—certainly it was not presented by Kerry and the Democrats.</p> (text/html)

BIG NEWS ON MICROSOFT: Slavery to It Is Ending
The hundred-dollar computer will be the end of Microsoft's dominance and possibly the company itself. Do you care? Can Wal-Mart beat Microsoft? Since you are reading this on a computer, you are a slave to MS and you should care. Freeing us from MS and its robber baron could raise the country's productivity by several points. I'll show how it. To have fun, usable, efficient computers, it is necessary. To finally realize the dream that Bill Gates aborted, we need a computer that is: Cheap----Instant-On----Simple----General Purpose. Only India has one, for $200 ("good globalization"). We (the rest of the world) don't. It will take much more than Linux or open software, much more, as explained below. (image/jpeg)

text Truth and Demagoguery: Ward Churchill Misrepresents Jeremy Ellington frmly University of Colorado 2005-05-12 6:39 PM
The author of a courteous Churchill critique was urged to "read Churchill", as though, as a former student at CU Boulder, he wasn't already familiar...as a result, Jeremy now has a renewed distaste for Churchill and his impact on the left, finding him, to be blunt, nothing short than a historical revisionist of the worst sort. This article focuses on wild claims made in the notorious 911 essay, and discovers them to be utter fabrications couched in terms which are, to again be blunt, are little short of demagogic jeremyellington_criticatlarge (at) yahoo.com (text/plain)

text The Omniscience of Memory Reinarto Hadipriono 2005-04-16 3:09 AM
Except for the recallable memory, especially the one in human beings, there is not a single entity in this universe that knows more about the changes taking place in this universe. This is so, because whatever the whole content of the universe is undergoing, it is but a "change of condition." The fact that man has the ability to recall the impressions of the "past condition" recorded in our brain as memory is indeed worth our admiration. If the claim that no other creatures, not even those from outer space, have recallable memory turns out to be true, we are definitely left with no other choice but to accept it as fact that man is the only creature capable of knowing the course of events of the whole content of the universe. Now, who actually is this creature that we call man? (text/plain)
