Republican IT Specialist Dies in Plane Crash

Here is a story from Democracy Now that is quite interesting, especially with the knowledge of all the past airplane crashes that have killed other significant people in politics, American and Not. I wouldn't doubt it if this "plane crash" was NO accident. Find the link to Democracy Now on the right side of my blog to hear the entire Interview/Story.

A top Republican internet strategist who was set to testify in a case alleging election tampering in 2004 in Ohio has died in a plane crash. Michael Connell was the chief IT consultant to Karl Rove and created websites for the Bush and McCain electoral campaigns. Michael Connell was deposed one day before the election this year by attorneys Cliff Arnebeck and Bob Fitrakis about his actions during the 2004 vote count in Ohio and his access to Karl Rove’s email files and how they went missing.

Posing as a Bidder, Utah Student Disrupts Government Auction of 150,000 Acres of Wilderness for Oil & Gas Drilling

"In a national broadcast exclusive, University of Utah student Tim DeChristopher explains how he “bought” 22,000 acres of land in an attempt to save the property from drilling. The sale had been strongly opposed by many environmental groups. Stephen Bloch of the Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance said, "This is the fire sale, the Bush administration’s last great gift to the oil and gas industry.”

Before it's Too Late...

Free Trade is DEAD! We need to bury it and let it R.I.P. Along with free trade being dead, we NEED to bury both the WTO & NAFTA! These will be bad for America and the World over. The whole era of Milton Freidman and Reaganomics are DONE. This country is suffering and we need to just shoot those dying horses, put them out of their misery and work on the future of America, American Politics and the New American Industrial R3VOLUTION! We must Nationalize ENERGY - rebuild a NEW and Futuristic Renewable Energy Grid throughout this country that can handle Solar & Wind power and whatever new technologies that will emerge in the coming future. This is the ONLY hope to America's survival as a leading super power in the world, or else we can start preparing to become a 2nd or 3rd world country not too far off in the distance. Americans need to tighten the belt on wasteful consumerism and start thinking about becoming a nation of productivity. We can thrive on local businesses and national business, we can start exporting items around the world and be a little more selective on what we import. It is time to stop supporting inhumane importers and start working with FAIR-trade organizations and businesses for the items we import into this country. The people of this Nation need to wake-up, stop being gluttoness consumers and wasters and start to think in terms of efficiency, practicality and the future of this nation, future generations and the future of a peaceful and livable planet for ALL its inhabitants.
