Excerpt of Review

Win Win (2011):
Subtle morality play w/ HS jock backdrop _ 8/10

Then the Giamatti character: We are introduced to him in a humorous vein, and he has a sort of jolly fellow-well-met demeanor. Thus it takes a while to figure that his actions vis-a-vis the legal system may be shady, or that he is fully aware of what he's doing. The writer/director McCarthy[1] skillfully navigates these early scenes with Giamatti—a furtive glance here, a forced laugh there—so the viewer is only slowly drawn into the inevitable value judgment. A kind of movie where you ask yourself what would you do in similar circumstances... also keeps you hooked to find out what Flaherty actually does.

Great pacing, holds your interest with the action, and the relationship humor makes it a comfortable, friendly movie. For the whole family. [Full Review]

Bang the Drums Notly
Nix all the toxic thumpings for war against Iran
by Ron Burcham

After the Cold war ended with the demise of the Soviet Union the Air Force admitted that it had fudged the facts to make the USSR more of a threat than it actually was to get more money to build a bigger Air Force. When it is about power, the power hungry do what is necessary to accomplish their goals.

NOTHING HAS CHANGED!! I have taken all of the rhetoric about Iran with a grain of salt. Experience has shown me that in the beginning of a crisis the media sides with the government and promotes the propaganda that the government dishes out and then later cries crocodile tears after their complicity has gotten our troops murdered in some off-shore military empire building scheme. Iraq and the WMD's of late, Vietnam and the USS Maddox/Tonkin Gulf Incident, from my time, are concrete examples of governmental duplicity and media cooperation so I'm not surprised about what this web site has to say about the goings on in the Muddled East and at home.” [Full Column]

"To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men."
— Ella Wheeler Wilcox

1. International Internet treaty signed by Europeans: In October 2011, before websites all over the internet voluntarily went dark in protest of SOPA, the internet censorship bill which was being considered by congress, Obama signed onto the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA). He did so using his claimed authority to make 'executive agreements,' On 1/26/12 the EU signed onto ACTA without any debate. ACTA has become a reality far worse for internet freedom than either SOPA or PIPA ever even threatened to be. End ACTA now.


2. Families in Vermont are facing an unprecedented attack on their rights to make informed independent vaccination choices by forced vaccination proponents in the Vermont Legislature. There are two bills filed that are attempting to remove the philosophical exemption to vaccination in Vermont. One bill has a hearing this Friday and legislators are predictably being grossly misled. We need your help to contact every person and organization in Vermont that you can to alert them about these bills and ask them to please contact legislators there to oppose S199 and H527.This link may not take you to the full advocacy page, but in that case go to NVIC.org.


3. Hidden curriculum of compulsory government schooling: Movies like "Idiocracy", would have you believe that it is genetics and a tainted gene pool that are responsible for an overall decline in intelligence. However, such comedies aside, authors like Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt and John Taylor Gatto have demonstrated with CLARITY that it is, in fact, the government education system itself that is responsible for churning out drooling automatons like it's the Ford Motor Company making cars...


4. Lying the world into wars: In 2002, recently declassified documents demonstrated that the Gulf of Tonkin incident of 1964 never happened. We went to war in Vietnam. In 1990 they told us that Iraqi soldiers were tossing babies out of incubators. It was a hoax, a LIE. We launched Operation Desert Storm. This video lists a good many more, how many manufactured hostilities can you name?


5. The best short video on the Web: Vote for Dr. No. (Here's an oldie but a bestie, I'm keeping this in Perkville until RP is elected president.) In just two minutes... In case anyone needs a reminder of what an epic train wreck Bush-Bama has been for the nation, here' a short video that sums it all up. It happens to have been made by a Ron Paul supporter. Ron Paul has faults, but his election would be revolutionary.


6. Top government expert reveals Osama-9/11 Truth:Top US government insider Dr. Steve R. Pieczenik, a man who held numerous different influential positions under three different Presidents still working with the Defense Department, has told Alex Jones that Osama Bin Laden died in 2001 and that he was prepared to testify in front of a grand jury how a top general told him directly that 9/11 was a false flag inside job.


7. All We need is one minute of their time: Our Action Alert is simple: Ask your senator or representative to make a one-minute floor speech opposing the FDA’s plan to sweep many supplements off the shelf and make the ones that survive much more expensive. Please help! The supplment you save may be your own. Act now!


8. How fiat money strangles the world: A staple of Perkdom. This is a lovely video that everyone must see and resee. Where the rich get richer and the poor get angry. Watch this fab little video, and share it with as many as you can, because it's the way things work. It also tells us exactly what we need to do to fix the global problem. Personally, I'm ready for my $30K reparations check from the banksters.


9. Bradley Manning Support Network growing: Ron Paul, a prominent supporter of accused WikiLeaks whistle-blower Bradley Manning, has called Bradley Manning a "true patriot" and a "hero." A Whistle-blower's Conference is scheduled for the weekend of Feb 17 in support of Bradley. The UN condemns solitary confinement such as Bradley's 10 mos. at Quantico. Remember: Exposing war crimes is not a crime. Free Brad Now!


10. Stuff they don't want you to know--flouridation: As we look around and wonder why so many people are blind to the realities of the growing tyranny all around us, we realize... they've been drugged. It was good enough for the gulags and concentration camps, well then by golly it's good enough for you. Wake up, man! How can you take the Red Pill, if you're drinking the blue one? Video.

MUST SEE:
Very Special Brasscheck TV broadcast: In conjunction with Prison Planet, Russell Means is featured in a 1:30 long presentation entitled "Russell Means: Welcome to the Reservation." What the Oligarchy is doing to us is what it's been doing to the American Indians from the beginning! I have never seen as thorough and incisive an analysis of what ails human society--particularly America--nor a judgment of what we need to do. Starting by enforcing the Constitution and taking away privileges of the money power. ABSOLUTELY A BLOCKBUSTER! If anyone knows how to get the DVD, please, please send me a note.

Russell is in the news from INN (Infowars Nightly News) again, and he has been suffering from health issues—tho latests news is the cancer seems to have been defeated, hooray! Please contribute through the referenced site or through this PayPal link shown as follows:

UN calls on Obama to Investigate and Prosecute U.S. Torture Charges
Wikileaks Documents Prove Torture, Abuse and Criminal Acts Were Systematic

In the wake of the release of 400,000 documents by Wikileaks, the United Nations has called on U.S. President Barack Obama to order a full investigation of crimes committed against the Iraqi people following the invasion and occupation that was directed by George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. UN special rapporteur on torture Manfred Nowak declared that the Obama administration has a legal and moral obligation to fully investigate credible claims of US forces' complicity in torture. Nick Clegg, the deputy Prime Minister in the UK has, in the wake of the recent revelations, also called for an investigation into the reports of mass torture disclosed in the newly released documents. Check out this extremely illuminating RT video outlining multiple horrendous crimes on the Iraqi people as US government policy. Then act!

Latest news from IndictBushNow.org: Protests are greeting Cheney at his book signings and preventing Bush from attending a Canadian university. Former FBI agent Coleen Rowley states: “Is it proper to honor this war criminal [Bush] who launched preemptive, unjustified wars of aggression and ‘shock and awe’ that led to hundreds of thousands of people killed, mostly civilian ‘collateral damage’ and widespread destruction in the Middle East?”

My personally adopted American political prisoner is Pete Hendrickson. He currently languishes in federal detention for crimes that are not crimes, for leading the freedom cause on taxes, respectively. Please help him financially and by getting out the word to end the federal Mob that would silence him.

Help Pete Hendrickson uphold the tax law on the federal government: Please check out Pete's latest letter above then a less recent one here: "Tax Truth from the Front: Timely clarity on income tax from Pete Hendrickson." You can branch off to other sites, but we must free Pete Hendrickson and liberate all the other political prisoners if we are to enjoy a benevolent, free society based on the Sacred Nonaggression Principle. Pete's recent News Release. Please distribute it widely among the media.
Please communicate with Pete by mail at:
Peter Hendrickson #15406-039,
P.O. Box 1000,
