I moved here to Austin, Texas from Illinois, when he was the governor, right before he became president and BOY was I in for a shock! The government here is so oppressive and the native Texans do not know it. It is very sexist and they are the second to last in the US for educational excellence. Texas wants to put an argument to the existence of Global warming in science classes here! They do not believe in sex education or drivers education, or even textbooks! This fucking state is so rich with oil, but do they help the kids educationally? The only people in Texas who know how messed up it is are the ones who moved here from somewhere else, and THEY ARE SHOCKED too! I actually feel that I have no rights here, quite a change from Chicago, IL. Imagine living in a place that LOVES him. If people and places can make you sick, then imagine the depth of the disease here where he was raised! Uncle B, Bush is a real piece o work, I agree.

Obama is in! Almost by National Proclamation! Bush is a sick individual, paranoid and probably a sociopath murderer - ask anyone in Iraq! Once he is gone, the truth about his mental health will out and the world will know why we suffered so much. Americans will never, ever elect a spoiled sick son of a rich elitist again! They have had this lesson driven home in their minds by sub prime mortgages, high oil prices, rampant inflation and loss of freedoms held dear to their hearts. It is all over except for the formalities. Thank God! Bush is OUT! Obama is in! Almost by National Proclamation!

I agree 100% with your assertion that the financial bottom line is all that matters to these companies. Apparently, Calvinism - which was outlawed decades ago - is alive and well and thriving in American corporations. (Calvinism is the belief that if you make money from it, anything is OK.) I don't think you're terrorists at all! (My, my aren't people throwing around that term a lot these days.) But maybe you should consider it! :) Love, Dr. Kathryn Kondrotas Absolutely great letter!

Look at the mess society is in now. The credit for that goes to the government. All the sneaking around, doing corrupt practices, concealing the truth from the public, and when someone tries to bring about an awareness, they are arrested and locked up with the truth. Freedom of speech in America is a lie -- an illusion given to the people so we can feel comfortable with the government and trust that our opinions are considered, when in reality, they are not. When someone like an animal rights activist is arrested for no real reason, the government labels them as a terrorist to scare the public and make them understanding and supportive of the unjust arrest. This works significantly, especially because of the post 9/11 terrorist paranoia. People hear the word "terrorist" and subconsciously think of a masked suicide bomber, so when they hear animal rights activists referred to as terrorists, they become fearful of, and condemn, the entire movement. Plus, an illusion is also created that the government is actually working to protect the country from terrorism, and it diverts the public’s attention from real pressing issues like contaminated imports, job shortages, the poor education system -- stuff that greatly affects the majority of the population in this country. What people need is to get off their high horses and stop treating others as inferiors. We need to all respect each other and work together to improve and maintain a civilized society. Having compassion for non-human animals as well as humans keeps a consistency of nonviolence in a society, which is what our society is screaming for today.
