AEON BUSH and his last argument: Warfare, Terror and more Warfare (X-post from dc.imc) SIku, sincerely yours 2004-10-19 1:43 PM
As commercial outlets praise their "dead-heat" patt polls, president Bush keeps his tough talk about marching freedom and replay sept-11th memories to demon strate his total warfare firmness against self-declared terrorists. While reality shows that his neoliberal, privatized efforts in Iraq rather produce, than eliminates hatred, illegalities and playfields for desperate terrorists, he insists his "rough" stance will prevail the situation. But all I know is that this wrong tactic will only breed more destruction, nemesis and more alienation with allies, friends and the reality of the people. (text/plain)

The US and Russia: Democracy in Check Brandon Batzloff 2004-10-18 8:14 PM
At the end of September, 115 politicians and foreign policy experts signed a letter that was delivered to the heads of NATO and European Union States. The letter criticized Russian President, Vladimir Putin's recent moves to end Democratic process in Russia. One of the recipients of the letter was George Bush, jr. As a man who has moved to end Democratic process in his own country, it would have been very hypocritical of Bush to condemn Putin for his actions. Consequently the only rebuke was Bush stating that he hopes Putin does not abandon Democracy upheld by checks and balances within the Russian government (The First Bush), but even this was ironic.

Open letter to My Grandfather James F. Harrington - Socialist Workers Party 2004-10-18 12:42 AM

I never really got to know my grandfather, Austin A. O'Malley, as he died when I was only four years old. He came over to the United States from his native country, Ireland around 1889, as a little boy of eleven years. Like many other Irishmen from Louisburg, County Mayo, he settled in Clinton, Massachusetts. I know that he worked there for a baker for awhile untill the Spanish American War broke out. I also know that he was in and out of the Veteran’s Hospital all through his life. I also know that he liked to drink at bars in South Boston, sometimes with his dog beside him. (image/jpeg)
