This is EXACTLY how you close a free society. Naomi hits it on the head w/ her 10 steps. Forget healthcare. Yeah we need it, but we would find a way around it and survive if we didnt have it because people are smart and they adapt. But water....now you mean business.

Al Gore brought up an excellent point in an Incovenient Truth. He said a frog will jump out of a pot of boiling water but if you put the frog in the pot and turn the heat up slowly he will just sit there til he dies.

Naomi, I dont disagree with the stand you are taking yet I find it strange I dont see you condeming what is going on with the current Admin or congress. Perhaps I have missed something.... I am not on here as much as I would like, so I only catch your posts here and there, yet what I have seen are not focused on the Illegal activities of those ... Read Morepreviously mentioned. Unconstitutional activity is literally a COUP against our country..... something you should understand and condem no matter the party. As a matter of fact, I would go so far as to say that those involved in this COUP no matter when in the last decades it has occured are GUILTY of TREASON and should be held accountable.

Food banks are running out all over the place. It's beyond not funny. I know someone who volunteers for a food bank and he says they never thought they'd be turning people away at the rates they have been.

I wait for the chorus in the streets, "NOT IN OUR NAMES". Better yet is a letter writing by each citizen saying NOT IN OUR NAMES and make it legal. It's not like you just vote and then are bound to be submissive to your political reps until the next election! You can at any time withdraw your consent to be governed! Now might just be a good time!

"I just read the comments on Naomi's article. It just blows my mind that people love her regardless of what anyone says or thinks. She is an intellectual lightweight when it comes to world politics, domestic and foreign policy, crisis issues, and things that matter. I still think she belongs in a Jerry Springer audience no matter how edumacrated ... Read Moreshe may be...that alone should tell smart voters that she will only do the bidding of those in the highest reaches of power."

But, but, she's real. She's just like you and me! She has a heart! She speaks her mind. Surely that qualifies anyone to be President. *rolls eyes*

Naomi Wolf Oh goodness, I asked my distributor to make a link in some way to the film so people who are trying to find can get it. (We made downloads free online when it came out). So they are trying to do that -- that was the amazon text, but it came out as if in my voice. Admins let's pls id the person posting `in my name' and what is the source so people can tell when it;s me and when it is not-- thanks naomi

Late 70s, after working three sleepless days/night on a pamphlet for the Black Liberation Army -- not because I believed in their cause at all, but because I thought they had a principled right to get their message out -- a white teenaged girl from Queens, the love interest of one of the radicals, says to me at 3 AM, "Isn't it great that the 3rd World finally has an army of its own?"

Since that particular moment, I take no action on "principles," and instead try only to act on a pragmatic basis of what I judge will bring about a better result. I just don't see working against this Presidency bringing good results, regardless of principles. And I don't think the possibility of genuinely laudable accomplishment by this Admin can as yet be ruled out.

I live in Nevada. If Yucca Mtn Nuke Repository weren't a dead project, I'd be less fond of Obama. ... Read More

I recently had cancerous tissue removed from my colon. If I have to do chemo, I'll be damn glad Obama has called off the Feds on medical marijuana in my state.

I am an activist against both wars, but in the absence of a viable "Peace Candidate," where is the sense of hanging these wars around Obama's neck?

The idea that corporations have all the rights of citizens, plus the right to buy representation, doesn't please me a hell of a lot, but Obama didn't invent that, nor do I feel there is any clear case that he is making it worse.

I keep an open mind, but I don't see any good purpose in dismantling the Democratic Party when the neocons, the libertarians, the white supremacists and the Christian right will be so happy to fill that vacuum.

thank you for sharing your stories. I hope you are right. I would love it if Obama turned out to be a hero, but my concern is that everyday we wait w/ these decisions he is making about the environment, about the wars, about the banks (I mean the stimulus Bill alone) people have yet to see the full impact of that...just wait til they see the effect... Read More of the 5 yr retroactive tax refunds he gave to corrupt businesses, everyday these decisions have a cumulative impact.

And if we wait long enough we will not have the recourse to undo it. I dont think people realize how close we are to losing the Constitution and that is the greatest power we have.

I am happy about the medical marijuana :)

Catherine Austin Fitz. She is awesome. She worked under Bush and Clinton and became a big whistleblower about the economy you speak of. I hear her on Coast to Coast am all the time and she is brilliant. I was really thrilled to hear her say that we can have a healthy sustainable economy that grows w/o all the crap we create and w/o the debt. It is possible.

Murray

Some questions to pose to one who administers or advocates the use of a vaccine. The answers have been included in case they can't come up with any credible ones:

1. If vaccines are so safe and effective, where are the randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies that prove this?

Answer: There aren't any. http://www.naturalnews.com/z027239_vaccines_flu_vaccine_.html... Read More

2. Other than "cohort studies" that have been thoroughly debunked, where is the so-called "science" backing the idea that flu vaccines work at all?

Answer: Scientifically speaking, there isn't a scrap of honest evidence showing flu vaccines work at all. Plenty to the contrary though. http://www.vaclib.org/links/a.htm

3. How can methyl mercury be safe for injecting into the human body when mercury is an extremely toxic heavy metal, and one that is deemed to be a hazardous waste upon removal from a dentist's patient?

Answer: It isn't safe at all. Mercury is a poison and probably the most toxic non-radioactive metal in the environment. Along with vaccine adjuvants, it explains why so many people suffer autism or other debilitating neurological side effects after being vaccinated. Children are subject to a myriad of vaccines at an early age these days and the mercury accumulates in their system.

4. Why do reports keep surfacing of children and teens suffering debilitating neurological disorders, brain swelling, seizures and even death following flu vaccines or HPV vaccines?

Answer: Because vaccines are dangerous. The vaccine industry routinely dismisses all such accounts -- no matter how many are reported -- as "coincidence" or as an "underlying medical condition". The truth is that the government has paid out over a billion dollars in the past to victims of vaccine damage. http://www.whale.to/vaccines/damage.html

5. Why don't doctors ever recommend vitamin D for flu protection, especially when vitamin D activates the immune response far better than a vaccine? Why don't they ever talk about proper nutrition or exercise to help prevent disease, instead of simply "washing your hands"?

Answer: Because vitamin D can't be patented and sold as "medicine" and doctors tend not to recommend things that put them out of business. Nutritional education is sorely lacking in med school simply because the facilities are largely funded by Big Pharma who make their billions from pushing drugs, not health advice.

6. If the flu vaccine really works, then why was there no huge increase in flu death rates in 2004, the year when flu vaccines were in short supply and vaccination rates dropped by 40%?

Answer: There was no change in the death rate. You could drop vaccination rates to zero percent and you'd still see no change in the number of people dying from the flu. That's because flu vaccines simply don't work. They just make a lot of people rich.

7. How can flu vaccines reduce mortality by 50% (as is claimed) when only about 10% of winter deaths are related to the flu in the first place?

Answer: They can't. The 50% statistic is an example of medical marketing. If there is a room full of 100 people and you take the 50 healthiest looking ones and hand them a candy bar, you can't then scientifically claim that "candy bars make people healthy." That's essentially the same logic behind the "50% reduction in mortality" claim of flu vaccines.

8. Can vaccines give you the disease that they're designed to prevent?

Answer: Medical authorities answer this criticism by saying the virus in the vaccine they use is "dead" or "killed", and therefore can't induce disease. How then could the body's defense system illicit a response and build immunity to something it can't even recognize or perceive as a threat? This argument flies in the face of medicine's own theory of how vaccines work. In actuality, the viruses are "attenuated" or weakened, as well as being mutated, and numerous studies demonstrate they still have the ability to manifest serious adverse effects and even death.

9. If flu vaccines work so well, then why are drug makers and health authorities so reluctant to subject them to scientific scrutiny with randomized, placebo-controlled studies?

Answer: Although they claim such studies would be "unethical", what's far more unethical is to keep injecting hundreds of millions of people every year with useless, harmful vaccines that aren't backed by a shred of honest evidence.

The both Pandermix and the Baxter version have resulted in miscarriages almost uniformly after dosing pregnant women with them. Infants under 6 years old are also at risk due to all the exciting things these "medicines" contain. Even a healthy grown-up shouldn't take them.

This two-disc director's cut is jam packed with never-before-seen bonus
material, including: an exclusive interview with Anthony Romero,
president of the ACLU; a detailed interview with Daniel Ellsberg,
former military analyst; a featurette with New York Times reporter
Nicholas Kristof, and much more.

Along with the rest o...f America,
best-selling author and feminist Naomi Wolf was overwhelmed by the
swell of conflicting information and the sudden march to war after
9/11. Wolf looked to history to help her understand the dramatic
changes she believed she was witnessing, and discovered the disturbing
similarities between post-9/11 US policy and that of historically
fascist regimes such as Mussolini's Italy and Hitler's Germany. Wolf
authored her next book, THE END OF AMERICA, which demonstrated that the
United States was on a remarkably certain path toward ending democracy.


Taking the thesis of her book to the streets, Wolf set out on a
national tour to discuss the evolution of America from a functional
democracy into a closed, fear-driven society with a terrifying absence
of due process. In this profound and eye-opening film, Award-winning
veteran documentarians Ricki Stern and Annie Sundberg (THE DEVIL CAME
ON HORSEBACK, THE TRIALS OF DARRYL HUNT) accompany Wolf as she
discusses America's dangerous passage towards becoming a society of
fear and surveillance, and expresses her plea to restore our nation's
most cherished values.

truth is free but the people who shot, cut, run the production facilities, edited and distributed the film should be paid for their work. though i certainly believe that there should be documentary libraries as there are book libraries ad that is why we made 100, 000 downloads free. xxxx n

ya thanks, but when the production is truth, the founders and thier families, the revolutionary soldiers were paid pennies on the dollar for thier valiant and succesfull effort... Im not going to argue the point of current theoretical capitolism... i will however point out that tis or any production short of hollywood could be produced by college ... Read Morekids or the general public for pennies on the dollar... and as in professional sports, sometimes; neigh, most of the time; the fans and believers are more excited and willing just to help thier team either it b a sports team or a cause.....

We voluntarily invest in the stock market. We can stop using wall street and send a real message. Words in an article like this don't mean anything to them. The stock market takes ethics out of the game. All decsions are based on what makes more money period. Each purchase decions we make is a vote.
