SUPPORT A FREE PRESS!
The three worst violators of free expression - North Korea, bottom of the index at 168th place. Northern European countries once again come top of the Index, with no recorded censorship, threats, intimidation or physical reprisals in Finland, Ireland , Iceland and the Netherlands, which all share first place. The united States is #53 (Down from #32).
According to REPORTERS WITHOUT BORDERS "The United States (53rd) has fallen... Relations between the media and the Bush administration sharply deteriorated after the president used the pretext of "national security' to regard as suspicious any journalist who questioned his "war on terrorism". If your newspaper support a free press, you should give them your full support. Intimidation and threats should not be a part of America's heritage of a free press.

Our worst nightmare is coming to fruition - it scares me that we're not all fighting like hell to stop it.
I am debating whether or not I should tackle something that really bugs me: How our veterans are being treated. A veteran that is 100% disable (from a war that is, according to Greenspan, mostly about Oil) gets about $37,000 a year from our government. Yet, this same government pays mercenaries contracted to the USA in excess of $20,000 per month. It is too bad, as people, we have lost interest in pursuing the truth. In earlier times, there was a thing call accountability!
Thanks so much for your comments. Our love for this country keeps us both going! AND, it is NOT unpatriotic to relive and regain the ideals of what made America great.
