The Republicans’ arrogance of power
You need a scorecard to keep up with the growing number of Bush administration lies, sleazy cover-ups and criminal scandals. This is an administration infested with cronyism, corporate profiteering, corruption and racism, a group chock full of moral degenerates. It’s an ugly portrait of unbridled free-market capitalism, where corporate gangsters have their hands on all the main power switches of government....

'Bird Brain' Chief wants Military to fight Bird Flu?
As John McEnroe infamously said, "You can't be serious!" But in today's White(y) House, even the most idiotic & ludicrous fundamentalist fantasies from the NeoCon Cabal often become Fedral policy! Infested with teems of intellectual tsetse flies & empty warheads, the Oval Office at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue drops the bombshell of the possibility of invoking martial law in a 'hypothetical' terrorist attack or even a 'natural disaster.'...

As such anarchism opposes all forms of hierarchical control - be that control by the state or a capitalist - as harmful to the individual and their individuality as well as unnecessary....

Tonight in Alameda: 'Theft of an Island' (town hall mtg on development)
I went to the planning board meeting on the Megaplex the other night, and the only people really supporting that thing are the business people and a handful of their friends. Everyone who spoke out against the project was an average resident. One guy who seemed to just be a regular guy supporting the Megaplex, let it slip that he had actually worked on the development of the project! The city officials seem completely bought off. This event seems like a healthy response to the outrageous...
