Convergence Space being riaded NOW
Forget about renegotiating, get out of NAFTA- it is so badly flawed. At the same time get rid of the SPP, which would be another stake in the heart for plans to create a North American Union. Failure to do so could result in Canada becoming nothing more than a resource colony.

I truly believe the truth will set me free, but it will also signify a symbolic break from America's undeclared war on indigenous peoples. I hope and pray that you possess the courage and integrity to seek out the truth and the wisdom to recognize the inherent right of all peoples to self-determination, as acknowledged by the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
Biden is a central character in the so-called Washington consensus, the brain trust that found Iraq war acceptable, that supported globalization, that lives off of the cream of corporate largess, while the average person lives a life of quiet desperation, in the hung for rent, for food, gas, for a better education.
The Philippine Peasant Support Network (Pesante)-USA, a Filipino peasant, human rights and environmental advocacy group based in Los Angeles strongly warned of the US-Arroyo regime scheme of taking advantage of the current troubles in Mindanao to build up its local version of Hitler's Brown Shirts. Pesante is one with the Amnesty International (AI) and many religious groups in the Philippines who are warning the public and the whole world at these vigilante groups which are recycled ILAGAS (known as the Ilonggo landgrabbers Association) who are known anti-Moro vigilante groups before martial law was declared will only aggravate the armed conflict in Mindanao.

This is last year's campaign promises of the KPFA Concerned Listener's group. Obviously they have been very successful in supporting the present management team at KPFA and Pacifica. Lets give them a few more years to work on implementing their "program". Their solution to most recent beatings at the station maybe to station a cop at the station permanently to "protect" the staff and community.

Como lo expresa Frida Modak, "A menudo escuchamos o leemos que en América Latina avanza una nueva izquierda y, sin embargo, vemos que nada cambia, que los modelos económico-sociales impuestos en la época de las dictaduras siguen en pie
If the Santa Cruz chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is trying to "Keep Santa Cruz Weird", then Ryan Coonerty was a fitting recipient for the "Hammer of Justice" award during their annual fundraiser at Long Marine Lab on August 24th. Coonerty is the mayor of Santa Cruz and either an owner of Book Shop Santa Cruz, or merely an employee of the bookstore, depending on which side of his mouth he is talking out of. His actions since becoming a Santa Cruz City Council-member in 2004, such as supporting police infiltration into community groups, should be, and in some cases have been, challenged by the ACLU. Therefore, one is left to believe that the Santa Cruz ACLU is a big supporter of irony when they award Coonerty, or just trying to do their part to 'Keep Santa Cruz Weird.'
Coonerty, also a lecturer in the Legal Studies department at UC Santa Cruz and in the Political Science department at Cabrillo College, accepted his award while Bernard, a civil rights for the poor activist, held a sign stage left critical of his politics. The sign made three points: that Coonerty has cut public comment time for individuals during City Council meetings, banned activists critical of his policies from Book Shop Santa Cruz, and made it a crime to be in a public parking lot for longer than 15 minutes.
The Watsonville Brown Berets were recognized with the "True Patriots" award from the ACLU. The Berets displayed a banner in the corner of the room, painted that morning for Watsonville's first Pride Celebration, that translates from Spanish to English as, "Liberation for All of the Oppressed." Sandino and Carlie accepted the award and spoke on behalf of the Berets. In the Berets' acceptance speech, which came after the mayor's, Sandino spoke out against Ryan Coonerty's repressive policies and affirmed the Berets' solidarity with all oppressed peoples.
