    By Peter Fredson
    November 21, 2005
    History has long passages referring to the murderous inclinations of politicians. Just read the HISTORY OF THE PERSIAN WARS by Herodotus if you wish to get a feeling of revulsion at the senseless murders of many thousands of people because of the whims of leaders seeking power.
    Perhaps you have heard of a leader of Haiti who marched a troop of soldiers over a cliff just to demonstrate to a visitor their absolute loyalty to him? (…)

    The Republicans in this House have done a heinous thing: they have insulted one of the deans of this House in an unthinkable and unconscionable way.
    They took his words and contorted them; they took his heartfelt sentiments and spun them. They took his resolution and deformed it: in a cheap effort to silence dissent in the House of Representatives.
    The Republicans should be roundly criticized for this reprehensible act. They have perpetrated a fraud on the House of Representatives (…)

    ​​​​Although I have a couple problems with Hugo Chávez, I love it when he tells the truth, especially when it is so difficult to get the truth here in Bushzarro world, a criminal nation with a corporate media filtering system allergic to the truth. "The planet’s most serious danger is the government of the United States.... The people of the United States are being governed by a killer, a genocidal murderer and a madman," Chávez (…)
