Progressive Coalition

Hi. My name is Sarah and I am a second year college student in Canada studying social work. I know it’s a bit early, but this summer I am really hoping to travel out west and stay on either some sort of commune, or co-operative living community. I am hoping that there will be college-aged people there, and commitment to social justice, social action and progressive ideals. Any suggestions would be great! It should also be non-religious <3

So, a new Dirty Trick of the Republicans is to call 6 or 7 times in a row with "information on (Democratic) candidate. People are getting frustrated and blaming the Democratic candidate for making the call!

Here's some tips on how to fight back, and possibly sue some people.

Cheers.

A company headed by President Bush's brother and partly owned by his parents is benefiting from Republican connections and federal dollars targeted for economically disadvantaged students under the No Child Left Behind Act.

I recently saw "An Inconvenient Truth" and I was inspired to challenge myself to do all I can to reverse at least some of the effects of global warming. As part of that effort, I've started the LJ community Climate Crisis Action Team  or  planetcooldown

If you are interested in doing what you can do avert a global crisis from global warming, this is the community for you! This community will encourage hands-on action. This is a place to give advice and tips as well as ask for help.

This is a place to educate yourself and others; to brainstorm ideas, cook up campaigns, and encourage positive action. Posts that motivate and inspire are more than welcome.

Please consider joining this community.

Even if El Presidente "declassified" Plame's information, it's still criminal; regardless of their protestations otherwise, there is no reasonable explanation of the chain of events except that it was politically motivated. US intelligence assets were lost in a time of war as a result of the actions of the administration; that is "adhering to [the] Enemies [of the People of the United States of America], giving them Aid and Comfort", by definition. Consequently, this administration is guilty of treason and is, literally, a criminal regime.

Historically, when business interests are first married to the military power of a federal government, by which I mean business interests gain control over the political structure which controls the military (which is properly called "corporatism" since it puts the profits of corporations over the rights of the people), the rights of the many are sacrificed for the profits of the few.

Chemtrails Are Over Las Vegas
Marcus K. Dalton
Tribune Media Group

Part 1

Editor's Note: Las Vegas residents are increasingly noticing the appearance of chemical trails overhead. They appear EVERY weekend without fail, the only exception being the two weeks after September 11, 2001. Such "chemtrails" are substantially different in appearance to the normal condensation trails left by jet airliners. The difference is that while condensation trails are composed of water vapor that dissipates rapidly, "chemtrails" linger much longer and spread out over time to eventually cover the sky with a thin haze. This week the Las Vegas Tribune begins a two-part article to examine the undeniable and mysterious phenomena of Chemtrails Over Las Vegas.

Last year a concerned reader wrote to the Idaho Observer: "Driving across Idaho and Nevada we saw normal condensation trails in the skies above north Idaho and we were habitually looking up as we drove toward Las Vegas. We had noticed that the sparsely populated areas in Nevada had brilliantly clear blue skies and that the occasional airplane left vapor trails that dissipated normally. But as soon as we neared Las Vegas, in the skies directly above the city, we watched what appeared to be a military C-135 Transports spraying something over the populated areas. When the planes were no longer directly over Las Vegas, they continued flying leaving a vapor trail that dissipated normally."

It has been reported that the "chemtrails" contain ethylene dibromide -- a substance that has been an additive to gasoline and airplane fuels as well as a banned pesticide. Ethylene dibromide has been linked to kidney and liver damage and is an immunosuppressive and a lung irritant.

William Thomas, who has researched chemtrails since their appearance in the latter 90s, has noted stunted plant growth in once-healthy gardens and wilderness areas in Santa Fe and Aspen. Similar plant problems are commonly associated with chemtrails in other regions of the U.S.
