Free the Downing Street Memo!

I urge all of you to contact the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Washington Times, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the Chicago Tribune, and all other newspapers you can think of and demand that they cover the Downing Street Memo. This memo has received almost no notice in the corporate-controlled press.

That memo makes it clear that George W. Bush planned to fit the "evidence" to his plans to invade and occupy Iraq for their oil and to build pipelines, using our money to rebuild their country and enrich his friends.

If you need background on this issue, please see this page. The media has ignored this issue, so it's up to us to get the word out there!

To be frank, I was a bit unclear on why Air America's hosts are so adamant about bringing back the Fairness Doctrine, but considering the media blackout on this story I now fully support their efforts and I encourage you to do the same! Please, contact the media and demand they take off the gag and discuss this!

Keep driving your Prius!

I have trouble believing stories like "Prius probed for engine stalls". As with other things in today's strange world, it's necessary to look behind the news and ask, who's to profit? Well, who indeed would profit from smearing cars that try to minimize the use of fossil fuels? Anyone have any ideas? Whoever could that be?

Whatever the motivations of these naysayers, I have to state that I have had no problems with my Prius. In fact, it's the main car that I use whenever I don't need to carry large objects. And, many of my friends also have Priuses (Priusi? In my native Albanian, it would be Priusem, but that's probably not it). And, none of my friends have told me about problems.

Please, keep driving your Prius, and don't believe the lies.
