We need a stronger message

FISA Action Page: It's Time For A Majority Leader Who Is More Than A Gutless Supplicant

Yesterday Harry Reid again brought forward the version of the FISA bill containing a provision for telecom immunity for their criminal complicity in illegal wiretaps of American citizens. Sure we need to win another filibuster, but we also need a stronger message. Reid must go.

What part of exercising power doesn't Harry Reid get? The Washington Post reports him "pleading" with the White House. And yet, it is his decision which version of the FISA bill to have the Senate consider, and by choosing to bring forward the bad one, he is knowingly forcing opponents of yet another "get out of jail free card" for Cheney cronies to get 60 votes to strip it out of the bill. Or filibuster yet again.

Step Down Harry Action Page: http://www.usalone.com/step_down_harry.php (anyone can use this link)

Facebook Version: http://apps.facebook.com/fb_voices/action.php?qnum=pnum784 (for this link must be a member of Facebook and logged in)

This is the last straw. Time and again he has abdicated his leadership, claiming he is "personally" opposed to things, while collaborating to stack the deck in favor of the other side of the policy issue. Reid has got to go.

And call them on the phone too. Here are the tested toll free numbers, 800 828-0498, 800 614 2803 and 866 340 9281. And there is a local phone number lookup on the regular action page above to get you all the local district phone numbers.

OK, those are the basics. Now it's time for us to breathe some fire of our own.

And please keep in mind, as with all our action pages, no words will be sent on your behalf to your members of Congress, neither from this alert nor on the action page itself, but the stated subject line, "Reid Must Step Down As Majority Leader Over His Telecome Immunity Surrender", and your additional personal comments if any.

But first, if you still have not yet gotten your "Impeach Cheney?" cap, this is your LAST chance to pick up one of these historic collector's items. On Monday, Dennis Kucinich intends to introduce proposed articles of impeachment against Bush as well, so this will be the last batch of caps about Cheney alone. Get the cap where it all started while you can.

Impeach Cheney? Caps: http://www.usalone.com/impeach_cheney_cap.php

Alright then, put on your flameproof protective gear, here we go.

The word feeble does not even begin to describe how ineffective Reid has been as majority so-called leader in representing the interests of the people. A leader does not repeatedly tell his caucus they are on their own, while working behind the scenes to cripple any real opposition. And in so doing, he has done nothing but grease the neocon agenda for as far back as the eye to see. For them he has been as very effective, as a co-conspirator.

He gave his private blessing to the Gang of 14 that stuck us with two additional lockdown reactionary votes on the Supreme Court for the next generation. And it goes downhill from there. More recently his unilateral caving in has stuck us with an evil White House con job dubbed "The Surge", the sole purpose of which was to drag out the death and destruction in Iraq at least another 2 years.

On the few occasions there have been successful filibusters under his rudderless non-leadership he has actually publicly apologized for it, like when we practically prostrated himself on the rejection of the John Bolton nomination, promising to cave yet again if they would just provide a couple extra redacted documents pretty please. We're surprised that Dick Cheney doesn't make him wear a flowered dress with little pink bows on the Senate floor.

Is he the Senate majority leader or is he a mouse? Reid makes Neville Chamberlain look like Richard the Lion Hearted. He is long overdue to be put out to pasture, hopefully one without gophers that might accidentally frighten him.

So again, none of these words of ours will go to your member of Congress, unless you choose to paste some of them in as part of your own personal comments on the action page.

Please take action NOW, so we can win all victories that are supposed to be ours, and forward this alert as widely as possible.

And, Spencer S.

Senators who oppose the plan to tighten identification requirements say he did."

Was heißt hier ohne Gentechnik?

Reformen des Gentechnik-Gesetzes sorgen für Diskussionen
http://www.heise.de/tp/r4/artikel/27/27146/1.html

Campact-News 02/08 Freitag, den 25. Januar 2008

Der Bundestag hat heute die Änderung des Gentechnik-Gesetzes beschlossen. Wir haben mit unserem Protest viel erreicht: Die Haftungsregeln wurden nicht verwässert - damit bleibt die wichtigste Hürde gegen den Anbau von Gentechnik bestehen. Wir können uns weiterhin im Standortregister informieren, wo Gentechnik angebaut wird. Und mit der Kennzeichnung "ohne Gentechnik" können wir Milch, Eier und Fleisch mit Gentechnik zum Ladenhüter machen.

Der Durchmarsch der Gentechnik auf unsere Felder findet nicht statt. Trotzdem bleibt die gesetzliche Regelung hinter dem zurück, was zum Schutz der gentechnikfreien Landwirtschaft notwendig wäre.

Lesen Sie unsere Analyse: http://www.campact.de/gentec/abschlusstext

Vorgestern fand im Bundestag die entscheidende Sitzung des Landwirtschafts-Ausschusses statt. Mit 50 Großballons trugen wir unsere Argumente gegen Gentechnik bis an die Fenster der tagenden Abgeordneten heran.

Der Film zur Aktion: http://www.campact.de/gentec/sg1/film2

Fotos von der Aktion: https://www.campact.de/gentec/sg1/fotos

Seit Anfang 2006 haben wir die Änderung des Gentechnik-Gesetzes mit Aktionen begleitet. Das Engagement von tausenden Bürger/innen konnten die Politiker/innen nicht ignorieren: Am Ende kam es auf unsere Stimme an! Das motiviert. Ganz herzlichen Dank an alle, die diesen Erfolg mit ihrem großen Einsatz ermöglicht haben.

Stimulus Gone Bad

Paul Krugman writes for The New York Times: "House Democrats and the White House have reached an agreement on an economic stimulus plan. Unfortunately, the plan - which essentially consists of nothing but tax cuts and gives most of those tax cuts to people in fairly good financial shape - looks like a lemon." In related news, David Cay Johnston, of The New York Times, reports: "President Bush’s plan to send payments to 117 million households to stimulate the economy would impose major strains on the Internal Revenue Service ... Nobody has authorized the agency to hire extra workers to reprogram computers, enter new data, issue checks and answer calls. The agency will divert resources from serving taxpayers and enforcing tax laws."

Like FBI, CIA Has Used Secret "Letters"

Joby Warrick, of The Washington Post, reports: "For three years, the Bush administration has drawn fire from civil liberties groups over its use of national security letters, a kind of administrative subpoena that compels private businesses such as telecommunications companies to turn over information to the government. After the 2001 USA Patriot Act loosened the guidelines, the FBI issued tens of thousands of such requests, something critics say amounts to warrantless spying on Americans who have not been charged with crimes. Now, newly released documents shed light on the use of the letters by the CIA."

The GOP’s security gap

The American Prospect
by Harold Meyerson

The conventional wisdom on this year’s election is that John McCain would be the strongest candidate the Republicans could send against the Democrats come November. I believe it myself. And yet, as the economy continues to deflate, the prospects for a McCain presidency are deflating as well. The affable McCain has on more than one occasion affably admitted that the economy is not his strong suit. It’s an admission you can make when you’re confident that your bona fides on national security will eclipse your economic deficiencies. And that confidence is evident in McCain’s view of the world, and of himself. The ‘transcendent challenge’ of our time, he says in his stump speech, is ‘radical Islamic terrorism.’ Given that, who better to fight it than McCain?...

Activists Expose Greenwashing by Rainforest Alliance

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Disguised as Rainforest Creatures, Activists Expose Greenwashing by Rainforest Alliance

Demand End of Certification of Rainforest Destruction

Date/Time: Thursday, January 24, 7pm at RA Headquarters, 665 Broadway (near E. 3rd St.)

Contacts for more information: Emily Sandusky, Founding Member of NYCAG, telephone: 1.315 576 1747

Dr. Tom Struhsaker, Duke University, Author of Ecology of an African Rain Forest: Logging in Kibale and the conflict between conservation and exploitation. tomstruh@duke.edu

Dr. Glen Barry, Ecological Internet - info@EcologicalInternet.org; telephone: 1.920 776 1075

(New York, New York) – Thursday the New York Climate Action Group (NYCAG) joins other environmental organizations denouncing Rainforest Alliance for profiting financially from the destruction of rainforests.

NYCAG is demanding a permanent end to the industrial logging of old-growth forests worldwide. Dressed as creatures from the rainforests of the world, environmentalists from New York City will participate in a festive rally to greet and inform the participants at a Rainforest Alliance cocktail party.

Scientific studies have shown that industrial logging in old- growth rainforests is never sustainable and leads to their permanent destruction by ranchers, mining operations, and industrial agricultural interests. Rainforest Alliance receives 30% of its funding by certifying industrial logging through their “Smartwood” program. They are the largest such certifier in the world. “Smartwood” certification follows Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) guidelines, which Rainforest Alliance claims will ensure sustainable forestry. In truth, however, FSC guidelines allow first-time logging of pristine ancient forests. These forests are recognized by climate scientists worldwide as our greatest defense against climate change.

Many cocktail party attendees coming expecting pina coladas will first be met by activists disguised as rain forest creatures, including an array of wild birds and mammals and even a gorilla to represent those imperiled because of certified logging schemes similar to Smartwood in the Congo.

The watchdog group, FSC-Watch, is directed by one of the founders of FSC Simon Counsell, who became its greatest critic. They have reported that, in addition to legal unsustainable logging, SmartWood has issued FSC certificates to various companies involved in illegal logging; its parent organization, Rainforest Alliance, also issued 'ethical certificates' to a company which that was actually working with Colombian terrorists.

In recent weeks, opponents of FSC certification of old-growth forest logging have achieved important victories. On January 17th the city council of Ocean City (New Jersey) voted unanimously to cancel a $1.1 million purchase of ipê timber from ancient rainforests, despite claims that its FSC certification ensured sustainability. Dr. Glen Barry, of Ecological Internet, responded, "The message is getting through: for our survival rainforest logging must end. Remaining rainforests must be protected and allowed to expand, with compensation to local peoples."

But is the message getting through?

Explains NYCAG member Emily Sandusky, dressed as a gorilla, “I hope Rainforest Alliance will recognize that FSC certification of old-growth tropical timber is certifying the destruction of the rainforest.”

The activists urged Rainforest Alliance to recognize the need to support permanent protected status for the world's remaining old growth forests. The animals will ask cocktail party-goers to use their influence to get Rainforest Alliance to change its ways and to stop selling old growth rainforest timber products. Rainforest Alliance will also be urged to support NYCAG efforts to end New York City's use of tropical hardwoods.

The Man Behind The Curtain

The American people seem mesmerized by the smoke and mirrors of the political and media elite. For the most part, the people of this country seem totally unaware that while the global elite who run this country passionately promote the "war on terrorism," those same elite are also violently attacking the liberties of the heartland. While they create a gargantuan Department of Homeland Security for our "protection," they are using that very same department to eviscerate the constitutional protections of our republic........
