- Volunteer media activist since Sept, 11, 2001. I left a nice job teaching multimedia to artists in Northern California to work for peace. In 2005, I painted like a upside down American flag a bus with my friends in Veterans For Peace to drive across the country calling for the IMPEACHMENT of President Bush and Krewe. On our trip to Dallas in August of 2005, we drove Cindy Sheehan to Crawford, TX. and began her vigil that lasted until Sept. We then drove to New Orleans to assist in the relief and recovery effort. Almost to years later, I'm still here in New Orleans documenting what has and has not happened.

Bush Iraq Emails Not Recoverable
By Matt Renner t r u t h o u t | Report
Wednesday 07 May 2008
A late-night court filing by the White House on Monday revealed that official administration emails about the run up to the invasion of Iraq and the initial occupation may never be recovered.
Whistleblowers have accused the White House of destroying email records from their internal servers. The Bush administration disputes this accusation, claiming instead that many emails were stored incorrec… Continue

By PAMELA HESS – 2 hours ago
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House Judiciary Committee voted Tuesday to compel a top aide to Vice President Dick Cheney to testify to the committee about the Bush administration's interrogation practices.
David Addington, Cheney's chief of staff, refused to testify without a subpoena. No date has been set for his appearance before Congress.
Addington is one of several lawyers believed to have played a key role in crafting the administration's interrogation policies short… Continue

PBS on Iraq: A Compilation of Deceit
By Morgan Strong
There have been five agonizing years of this war in Iraq. Five terrible years of bewilderment and rage.
Commemorating that anniversary, Frontline, the PBS investigative series, allotted four-and-one-half hours over two nights to an in-depth analysis of the war in Iraq and how it came about.
What the broadcast revealed was nothing new. Others have engaged the subject as thoroughly as did Frontline. What we did see in this broadcast, however, was a compilation of the deceit, pe… Continue

Patriot missiles: Iraq Veterans Against the War
By London Times
After Vietnam, American veterans testified to the atrocities they witnessed. Now soldiers who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan are about to do the same
Ariel Leve
Some of them will be okay. They will live with the secrets. They can dissociate from what happened in combat because it was part of the job. It was what they signed up for. They will keep the secrets out of duty – the silence is part of a code, and they honour that code above all else.
But for others, the secrets they… Continue

Appreciate how you've kept on keeping on...
I hear demolition of the 4th housing project is underway. We MUST help New Orleaneans take back their city.
Gordon, THIS WEEK, please consider sharing this flyer with everyone you can... Check out why at http://PledgeToImpeach.ORG
Thanks!
Pat
Keep up the great work!
Please read my post about the MAY 1st strike!
If you agree (please feel free to comment!), let everyone you know become aware... THIS is our (last?) chance--for impeachment, for ending the occupation of Iraq, AT LEAST for forcing our topics into the presidential campaigns!
Defending Freedom through National Solidarity!

It's really hard for me to speak of New Orleans without crying. Sometimes my students (university) ask me about it. It's hard, but I choke my way through and basically say the government ignored its duty but individual people came to the rescue as many as could, as fast as they could, and that I believe Chinese people would do the same under similar circs. But I can't help tears springing to my eyes. I want to help too. This is crazy to let an entire city be forgotten. It is a national treasure -- New Orleans isn't very well known in China, but it is in Europe and anywhere there are people who love jazz and blues, which is all over the globe. The people who want to come back to their home should be able to, even though they know it could happen again. People want to go home, no matter where that is.
In solidarity,
Pat
I'm likin' your site... will be reading more about you and New Orleans ASAP.
BTW, pls. consider joining the group I just started: http://impeachspace.ning.com/group/PledgeToImpeachORG

Moderates are famous for wanting tranquility within the nation! They will always compromise or sell out, so that drastic change does not happen, even when that kind of change is necessary!
Their failure to recognize that impeachment is necessary right now, means that they are no longer relevant, ... and so the people should dump the democrat party into the trash can of ancient history, and start a new progressive party that is in touch with what is happening and will be respectful of our progressive heritage and not afraid to do the right thing!
By voting your conscience you will be a winner!...and no matter what happens you will have voted for your humanity and the humanity of the nation!
Sometimes one step backwards means that next time will be 2 steps forward!
If that is our destiny than so be it!
Please see my post “Let’s Get Organized!”
Thank you, Steve
