S.Odamninsane - ity S.Odamninsane 2003-04-11 2:57 PM

And always this reporting was offered up as far more reliable than our own government sources. AND this reporting is used to protest intervention in, and the use of force to stop, one of the worst human rights crisis of this short century. But now the truth can be told ... and still there are people out there that find some way to impose the sins of Hussein, the rape of Iraq, and the hatred of the Arab despots on the United States. That is insanity !!! (text/plain + 12 comments)

War Tax Resistance Made Simple Matt W. 2003-04-11 5:52 AM
the basic truth is about half of your income tax is going to the military. For all the millions of people who've taken to the streets in the past four months to prevent or oppose this war, this is like a kidney punch from behind: You may spend your days, nights and/or weekends working to preserve peace, but everyone who pays taxes is financially helping to support the war.

Why I Didn't March This Time Their Tongues Were Cut Out for Slandering Hussein March 28th, 2003 3:30 PM Often, the executions have been carried out by the Fedayeen Saddam, a paramilitary group headed by Mr. Hussein's oldest son, 38-year-old Uday.
