I was just watching "Democracy Now!" (25JUL05) and found their broadcast to be a fascinating example of the type of mental-push tactics that have been recently discussed. Posting in hopes someone finds it useful.<br><br>Here's my summary of headlines:<br><br>1. Bush administration refuses to hand over documents written by Supreme Court nominee John Roberts. No real justification other than "shh, it's a secret".<br>2. Pentagon still refuses to release photos of prisoners to ACLU, despite being court-ordered to do so. <br>3. Bush administration trying to block legislation that calls for "humane treatment" of detainees, because it would impede the president's ability to protect the US effectively from attacks. WHAT?!<br>4. South America is launching a new news station Telesur, so last week the House of Representatives passed an amendment to broadcast their own station into the area. Reason? To undermine "anti-American" sentiment.<br><br>So the pattern is 1.defy 2.hide 3.block 4.intercept<br><br>After hearing all these headlines, I am finding it VERY DIFFICULT to not believe that the last one is related to something nasty the government is up to. <br> <br>5. The massive heatwave. It's killing off homeless and elderly like a plague. <br><br>So effectively it's 5. kill<br><br>Wow, that's some powerful presentation. Good enough to make me remember Putin's weather control machine (last used in May) and wonder if somebody might've borrowed it.<br>_______________________________<br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:green;font-size:x-small;">before you say I'm looney, it's well<br>known in eastern Europe that in Russia<br>rain is forced 12 hours before <br>major parades and other out-door <br>events -- weather control</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a239/ZeroHaven/tinhat.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></p><i></i>
