Murder at Guantanamo? Obama pushing slowly and will reveal deceit.

Submitted by BikeRackIV on Fri, 2009-11-20 15:52.

Under much pressure, President Obama has moved pretty slowly regarding the Guantanamo detainees. More to be revealed as time goes on.

With recent news reports centering on Attorney General Eric Holder's announcement that some Guantanamo detainees would be prosecuted in federal court and revamped, albeit flawed military commissions, important stories from previous months related to the prison facility continue to sink ever deeper into the swamp of our collective amnesia.

Focus on poverty reduction to tackle violence in neighborhoods.

What a concept. Venezuela  is focusing on poverty reduction with the goal of decreasing crime. So it sounds like Ven... thinks if they supply good quality paying jobs to citizens along with benefits, they might be healthy enough to work a good day and pay for things,  rather that commit crime to survive.

I don't know about you, but that makes a lot of sense to me. What a wild, crazy way to think, huh?

So I wonder what would happen to Americans if our Government focused on creating meaningful jobs and we made sufficient hard product to not only sustain ourselves but produced excess for sale and export at a profit? Is that a wild and crazy idea they have or what? The main thing I like about it is the word WORK.

Immigrant groups reach deal in name-check lawsuit

Submitted by BikeRackIV on Mon, 2009-11-09 17:23.

This is good news for me. Can you imagine being broken away from your family for years, hoping the Government will give the OK to re-unite? This lawsuit may very well set the stage for how the U.S. treats incoming immigrants in the future. Among many other humanitarian areas, we Americans  need to take a serious look at how we treat other humans.

12 Dead in Fort Hood Shooting Spree

Submitted by truthseekers on Thu, 2009-11-05 15:40.
FORT HOOD, Texas (Nov. 5) -- A soldier opened fire at a U.S. Army base in Fort Hood on Thursday, unleashing a stream of gunfire that left 12 people dead and 31 wounded. Authorities killed the gunman, and apprehended two other soldiers suspected in what appears to be the worst mass shooting at a U.S. military base.
The shooting began around 1:30 p.m., Lt. Gen. Bob Cone said at a news conference. He said all the casualties took place at the base's Soldier Readiness Center, where soldiers who are about to be deployed or who are returning undergo medical screening.
"It's a terrible tragedy. It's stunning," Cone said.
A law enforcement official identified the shooting suspect as Army Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan.
