Dow and Monsanto Join Forces to Poison America's Heartland
http://www.truth-out.org/dow-and-monsanto-join-forces-poison-americas-heartland/1329933936
Richard Schiffman, Truthout: "In a match that some would say was made in hell, the nation's two leading producers of agrochemicals have joined forces in a partnership to reintroduce the use of the herbicide 2,4-D, one half of the infamous defoliant Agent Orange, which was used by American forces to clear jungle during the Vietnam War. These two biotech giants have developed a weed management program that, if successful, would go a long way toward a predicted doubling of harmful herbicide use in America's corn belt during the next decade."
Mike Lofgren | Iran and the Shape of Things to Come
http://www.truth-out.org/iran-and-shape-things-come/1329853237
Mike Lofgren, Truthout: "Prime Minister Netanyahu will be in Washington March 4-6. A potential indicator of future events will be whether he gets an invitation from the speaker to address Congress and push the required emotional buttons. The first new moon thereafter will occur on March 22; even with the existence of radar, combat aircraft still gain tactical advantage by maximum optical concealment. It is worth noting that the invasion of Iraq occurred on March 20, 2003."
Your Presidential Candidates on Drugs, Part One: Mitt Romney
http://www.truth-out.org/your-presidential-candidates-drugs-mitt-romney/1330022148
Mike Ludwig, Truthout: "In January, a group of activists with Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP) attended campaign events in New Hampshire. Armed with video cameras and some simple questions about drugs and the drug war, the activists attempted to put drug policy on the campaign agenda by confronting each Republican candidate to find out where they truly stand. No candidate was more elusive than former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney."
The Emperor's Messenger Has No Clothes: Belen Fernandez Dresses Down Thomas Friedman
http://www.truth-out.org/emperors-messenger-has-no-clothes-belen-fernandez-dresses-down-thomas-friedman/1330011052
Robert Jensen, Truthout: "What's scary about Thomas Friedman is not his journalism, with its underinflated insights and twisted metaphors. Annoying as his second-rate thinking and third-rate writing may be, he's not the first - or the worst - hack journalist. What should unnerve us about Friedman is the acclaim he receives in political and professional circles."
Paul Krugman | Blaming Decline in Family Values for Soaring Inequality
http://www.truth-out.org/blaming-decline-family-values-soaring-inequality/1329851535
Paul Krugman, Krugman & Co.: "From an analytical point of view, this would seem to be a very odd time to focus on the alleged moral decline of the lower classes.... But now we have an economy that has left blue-collar workers behind: why invoke social values to explain their plight?"
Immigrant Steel Workers March Against Unjust Firings
http://www.truth-out.org/immigrant-steel-workers-march-against-unjust-firings/1329922142
David Bacon, Truthout: "Two hundred immigrant workers, their wives, husbands, children and hundreds of supporters marched through downtown Berkeley February 17, protesting their firing from Pacific Steel Castings, one of the city's largest employers. Starting at City Hall, they walked for an hour past stores and homes, as bystanders often applauded. Teachers and students at a Montessori school along the route even came out to the sidewalk to urge them on."
War Is Too Tragic for Weak Balance of Powers
http://www.truth-out.org/war-too-tragic-weak-balance-powers/1329926911
Dina Rasor, Truthout: "As much as I am glad that some of our former presidents fought to keep the generals from pushing them into war decisions through intemperate leaks of misinformation to the media, I can also see presidents and the executive branch have been leaching away the power to declare war from the Congress."
Rights Are for Real People: Where the Infamous Citizens United Decision Came From and How to Overturn It
http://www.truth-out.org/rights-are-real-people-where-infamous-citizens-united-decision-came-and-how-overturn-it/1330009196
Jeffrey D. Clements, Yes! Magazine: "How did the folly of Citizens United ever happen? In fact, the case is the result of a well-funded and organized 30-year campaign to establish corporate constitutional rights as a means to trump democratic laws. Indeed, Citizens United is more like a victory parade for this campaign than a stumble or simple mistake of the Court."
Robert Reich | Corporations Don't Need a Tax Cut, So Why Is Obama Proposing One?
http://www.truth-out.org/corporations-dont-need-tax-cut-so-why-obama-proposing-one/1330009668
Robert Reich, Robert Reich's Blog: "Why isn't the White House just proposing to close the loopholes without reducing overall corporate tax rates? That would generate more tax revenue that could be used for, say, public schools. It's not as if corporations are hurting. Quite the contrary."
Remotely Piloted War: How Drone War Became the American Way of Life
http://www.truth-out.org/remotely-piloted-war-how-drone-war-became-american-way-life/1330008531
Tom Engelhardt, TomDispatch: "In the American mind, if Apple made weapons, they would undoubtedly be drones, those remotely piloted planes getting such great press here. They have generally been greeted as if they were the sleekest of iPhones armed with missiles."
Romney Says He'll Make the Top 1 Percent Pay More While Proposing Plan Giving Them a Massive New Tax Break
http://www.truth-out.org/romney-says-hell-make-top-1-percent-pay-more-while-proposing-plan-giving-them-massive-new-tax-break
Travis Waldron, ThinkProgress: "Romney revealed his second tax reform plan in Arizona this afternoon, and again he claimed that he wasn't providing cuts to the wealthiest Americans. In fact, he said, his plan would ask the top 1 percent to pay as much and maybe more than they were currently contributing."

Global Corporations Know No National Boundaries, While the Poor of the World Just Face Walls
http://blog.buzzflash.com/node/13343
Mark Karlin, BuzzFlash at Truthout: "As more and more of the world's wealth is concentrated in the hands of a small percentage of corporations and people, these firms and individuals wield financial influence that crosses international boundaries with ease. The global elite are now an unofficial worldwide entity of sorts that is grafted on to the notion of individual sovereign states."
