In Service to Power: A First Read of Michelle Obama's Speech Adam Richmond 2012-09-09 3:18 AM
As the U.S. sinks further and further into economic decline, with 23 million people unemployed or underemployed and one report after another detailing the everyday sense of dread the average working class family faces with a declining standard of living, cuts to education and vital services for those most in need, the tightly controlled spectacle called the Democratic National Convention featured First Lady Michelle Obama on Tuesday, September 4th. The convention appeared little different than parties built on the personality cult of the Great Leader upon whom all aspirations are placed. There was little to distinguish the Democratic National Convention from the gross rubber stamp party congresses of the old Stalinist parties, with functionaries clapping in approval, on cue, for popular consumption.

Will AB 2530 Unshackle Childbirth in California? -Interviewing Tina Reynolds & Vikki Law Angola 3 News 2012-09-07 6:06 AM

A bill opposing the shackling of pregnant prisoners, AB 2530, has been passed unanimously by the California State Legislature and is now on Governor Jerry Brown’s desk, with thirty days to either approve or veto it. Last year, a previous version of this bill was also passed unanimously by the Legislature, but it was ultimately vetoed by Brown. With Brown’s decision expected anytime, local activists are urgently mobilizing to stop him from vetoing this important bill once again. AB 2530 supporters have created a webpage for the public (not just California residents) to contact the Governor. (image/jpeg)

All Eyes on Chicago's Teachers Shamus Cooke 2012-09-04 10:15 AM
It’s impossible to exaggerate the national importance of the teachers’ struggle in Chicago. If the Chicago teachers’ union — 26,000 members strong — goes on strike, many critical yet ignored political issues will go into the national spotlight, exposing nastiness that many politicians and labor leaders would like ignored until after the presidential elections.

- Casa Pueblo de Adjuntas “Exigimos al Cuerpo de Ingenieros a no jugar de cómplices de un esquema para defraudar a los abonados de la AEE y a que denieguen el permiso al gasoducto del norte donde el propio proponente aceptó que sería un tubo sin gas”, así arremetió Arturo Massol Deyá junto miembros de la Comisión Técnica y Científica de Casa Pueblo, el licenciado Pedro Saadé de la Clínica de Asistencia Legal de la UPR y el congresista Luis Gutiérrez desde Washington DC. Esta exigencia al Cuerpo de Ingenieros (USACE, por sus siglas en inglés) a denegar de inmediato la solicitud de permiso de Vía Verde se da en momentos donde el gobernador Luis Fortuño mantiene ‘vivo’ la solicitud de permiso ante esta agencia federal. Las razones están sustentadas en que el informe del Comité Intersectorial de Cumplimiento Ambiental y Alternativas Energéticas (CICAAE) realizado por Orden Ejecutiva el cual expone que 'el proyecto de Vía Verde no es una opción viable' por insuficiencia de capacidad en el suplido de gas natural. Además, tanto el Gobernador como el Comisionado Residente en (text/html)

Will 2012 be the Final Election of Lesser Evilism? Shamus Cooke 2012-08-14 9:16 AM

Just when the Obama campaign couldn’t appear any less inspiring, Paul Ryan was put forth as the Republican vice presidential candidate. Suddenly team Obama was supplied with enough political munitions to scare every last American over the possible Ryan destruction of Medicare, Medicaid, cuts to Social Security and the various other evils inherent in his proposed national budget. Consequently, many Liberals and Leftists across the spectrum are now focused on preaching the horrors of a Republican presidential victory and thus the necessity of re-electing Obama. (image/jpeg)

Inequalities, Taxes, and More Inequalities Ann Robertson and Bill Leumer 2012-08-04 2:47 AM
Thanks to Occupy, most working people are well aware of the growing inequalities in wealth. But for those who lack the specifics, former Secretary of Labor Robert Reich provides a useful overview: “…the rich have been getting a larger and larger portion of total income. From 9 percent in 1980, the top 1 percent's take increased to 23.5 percent by 2007. CEOs who in the 1970s took home 40 times the compensation of average workers now rake in 350 times.” (“Confessions of a Class Warrior,” August 22, 2010). (text/plain)
