Volume VI - Issue #53 July 2005
America is reviled around the world for actions taken by the Bush Administration in the name of freedom, in the name of democracy, and in the name of world peace. These precious values were cited by them merely as a pretense to reduce liberty, to consolidate power, and to reap criminal gains from war profiteering.
The world is unsafe as long as Bush and his administration retain power, and the survival of America depends on ‘regime change’ in the November 2006 elections.
The Bush Administration and the Republican Party are controlled and directed by neo-con fascists. They stole America’s heart and they will not give up easily, so lovers of freedom must take power away from them. A Democratic majority in one or both houses of Congress will open these matters to full investigation, the inevitable result of which will be impeachment of Bush and Cheney and criminal indictments against half the White House staff.
Every adult in America has from today a simple choice: either consenting to and condoning the Bush Gang’s unbridled lust for money and deceit and death — or taking America back and returning this country to rule under our sacred Constitution.

George Dubya Bush, and the so-called 'liberal media'
