text Further Oppression of Poor likely at UN: America, both the Problem and the Solution. Anthony Ravlich 2008-09-15 3:43 PM
Given the strong likelihood that the UN General Assembly next month will ignore the plight of the most disadvantaged a ‘bottom-up’ human rights approach is provided which emphasizes the most disadvantaged. This is rare - usually only the elites have a belief system e.g. liberalism or socialism. The ‘bottom-up’ approach provides hope and empowers the underclass, those pursuing their dreams, and the severely alienated to struggle for their own human rights. (text/plain)

text CODDLING OF PALIN IS FALSE FEMINISM, DISGUISED SEXISM, AND RIGHT-WING ANTI-WORKING-WOMEN Ruth Rubinstein 2008-09-10 4:41 AM
The call of so-called feminists to coddle Palin is really disguised sexism and based on a medieval, male-chauvinist mentality that women are weak and fragile and should be protected. We don’t need an American Margaret Thatcher, an icon and poster child for right-wing policies that harm poor and middle-class working women, the majority of women. It’s time to expose Palin for what she really is. (text/plain)

text Understanding the developing Braithewaite situation ectopia 2008-09-02 3:46 AM
About two hundred residences in the Braithwaite subdivision along Highway 39 at the St. Bernard/Plaquemines Parish boundary southeast of New Orleans were threatened with flooding during the afternoon of Monday, September 1, 2008 as hurricane Gustav came ashore in southern Louisiana. The towns of Braithwaite and Port Nickel were ordered to evacuate. The status of this threat may have subsided somewhat tonight as the Army Corps of Engineers opened gates on the Caernarvon Mississippi River Diversion, thus lowering stress on the overtopped levee. Water in the Mississippi River is currently lower than the levels in the canals. (this article continues to clarify the Braithwaite situation and history) (text/plain)

text As Hurricane Gustav Approaches, Blackwater Seeks Personnel to Deploy to Gulf Coast repost: Democracy Now 2008-09-02 12:24 AM
AMY GOODMAN: I want to go to Jeremy Scahill, who covered, of course, Hurricane Katrina in the aftermath, Democracy Now! correspondent, wrote Blackwater: The Rise of the World’s Most Powerful Mercenary Army. Jeremy, what’s happening today? JEREMY SCAHILL: Well, last Friday, Blackwater sent out an email. This, of course, is the famous mercenary company that not only has operated in Iraq and Afghanistan, but was actually in New Orleans in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and beyond, in 2005 made $70 million in federal money just off of its Hurricane Katrina contracts. Last Friday, Blackwater sent out an email to its network of independent contractors. The company boasts of having some 20,000-plus individuals that it can call out at a moment’s notice. And the contract was looking for personnel that would be interested in deploying in, what the email said, areas affected by Hurricane Gustav. (text/plain + 1 comment)
