THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

"Imperialism today is taking place in the context of...the 'universalization' of capitalism. It is not now primarily a matter of territorial conquest or direct military or colonial control. It is not now a matter of capitalist powers invading non-capitalist powers in order to bleed them dry directly and by brute force. Now it is more a matter of ensuring that the forces of the capitalist market prevail in every corner of the world (even if this means marginalizing and impoverishing parts of it), and of manipulating those market forces to the advantage of the most powerful capitalist economies and the United States in particular." ... "Military force is still central to the imperialist project, in some ways more than ever."-- Political scientist Ellen Meiksins-Wood, Z magazine Nov 1999, p26

 

HAPPY 'KICK OUT THE GOVERNMENT' DAY!!!

 

Some Papers in Financial Trouble Are Leaving the A.P. to Cut Costs

Webmaster's Commentary: 

After all, A.P. is one of the major news providers that helped sell the lie of Saddam's 'nookular' bombs!

Nobody likes a liar. Nobody wants to be tied to someone that is KNOWN to support one.

Getting out of AP

They must have been planning this in advance. Getting out of an AP contract is almost as bad as quitting the Mafia. You generally have to give them a 90 days "non renewal" notice in advance of your contract expiration to quit the service. Several radio stations that were carrying AP and wanted to quit found this out the hard way.
