“We are alarmed at the way in which the UK government has reacted, using national security legislation against those who have helped bring this public interest information to global attention. “

LONDON (INTELLIHUB) — Dear Prime Minister,

We have joined together as an international coalition of free speech, media freedom and human rights organisations because we believe that the United Kingdom government’s response to the revelations of mass surveillance of digital communications is eroding fundamental human rights in the country. The government’s response has been to condemn, rather than celebrate, investigative journalism, which plays a crucial role in a healthy democratic society. . . . Read Complete Report

 

Press Release from the Libertarian party: An Open Letter to the Commission on Presidential Debates (w/Video Report)

Although I worked for 52 of my 68 years and paid my taxes every one of those years I am now retired on Social Security and pay no taxes because my income is below the level. That puts me in the 47% of Americans that Republican candidate Mitt Romney is not worried about in this election, and in fact showed a high disrespect for in the comments he made when he thought he wasn’t being watched. (SEE Video at bottom of posting)

But I am also one of the 6% voting for Libertarian Candidate Gary Johnson. As the longest running third party in the Nation I see no reason why, my choice,  Governor Johnson is not allowed to be in the debates.

This is blatantly ignoring MY presidential chose by the secretive Commission on Political Debates and another proof of the Controlled Police State we live in. . . . EDITOR

from The Libertarian Party

Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson has filed a lawsuit to win a spot in the presidential debates that start in Denver on Oct. 3.

It’s unlikely that he will succeed, but Johnson argues that the private Commission on Presidential Debates, along with the Democratic and the Republican parties, are unfairly blocking him from participating. Only President Barack Obama and GOP challenger Mitt Romney are being allowed to debate. . . From the text posted with video on youtube

Open Letter from a Marine Tea Partier to All Occupiers

First of all, I’m surprised you’re reading this. Thanks to the corrupt media, many of you might be clueless to the fact we share quite a bit of commonground.

Let me clarify: By “Tea Party,” I am in no way referring to the hijacked movement we know and love today. By “Tea Party,” I don’t mean Iran warmongers, bailout lovers, the “extreme right,” and people who think what happens in your bedroom affects them in any way. No, what I mean is the Tea Party as it started in 2007 as opposition to Bush policies.

The media loves to paint a picture of OWS vs. TP, “right” vs. “left,” etc. It’s an old tactic called divide and conquer. If we fight amongst ourselves, no one looks at the true criminals at work in society. . . . continue
