Arun Gupta and Steve Horn | The Silver Lining in Walker's Victory
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9661-the-silver-lining-in-walkers-victory
Arun Gupta and Steve Horn, Truthout: "Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker did not win the June 5 recall vote because a parade of Daddy Warbucks stuffed his suit full of six-figure checks. The Democratic challenger Tom Barrett did not lose because he raised a scant $4 million to Walker's $30 million war chest. Walker won because he had a vision, however brutish, and he forged a rich-poor alliance that supports it. "
For-Profit College Reform: How Democratic Power Lobbyists Helped Water It Down
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9633-for-profit-college-reform-how-democratic-power-lobbyists-helped-water-it-down
Charles M. Smith and Dina Rasor, Truthout: "This type of lobbying by the Democrats will continue until they are exposed and shamed for influence peddling and making money on what is usually a Republican philosophy of no reforms or regulations."
Paul Krugman | An American Folly: The Professional Centrist
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/9654-an-american-folly-the-professional-centrist
Paul Krugman, Krugman & Co.: "Things fall apart. And the center not only did not hold, it couldn't seem to get any attention whatsoever. Americans Elect, a lavishly funded 'centrist' group that was supposed to provide an alternative to traditional political parties, has been a ridiculous flop. Basically, about seven people were actually excited about the venture - all of them political pundits. Actual voters couldn't care less."
Election Countdown 2012: Elizabeth Warren Must Push Against Scott Brown's DoubleSpeak, and More
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9645-election-countdown-2012
Lambert Strether, NakedCapitalism: Amir Khadir, the only Quebec solidaire Member of the National Assembly, was one of 65 protesters who were handcuffed and detained Tuesday night; following police brutality, voters in Fullerton, California, ousted city council members in hopes for future reforms; in order to win, Elizabeth Warren's campaign must push more against Scott Brown's doublespeak, and more.
Climate Crisis: The Silence Is Deafening
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/9610-climate-crisis-the-silence-is-deafening
Dr. Brian Moench, Truthout: "Despite the wide-reaching civil rights implications of the president's encouraging new stance on gay rights, he remains weak on another issue, one which concerns the very survival of life (human and non-human) as we know it, where there is no margin for error and no time to waste, issues where the clock is not only ticking, but nearing the end of its prelude to catastrophe. I'm talking, of course, about 'the climate crisis' - what the conniving Republican strategist Frank Luntz convinced the media to start calling 'climate change' in 2003 because polling showed that it sounded less ominous than 'global warming.'"
In Wisconsin, Union Defeat Doesn't Mean Tea Party Win
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9651-a-defeat-for-unions-yes-a-win-for-the-tea-party-perhaps-not
Abby Scher, Truthout: "Where government jobs are disproportionately held by people of color, the "government union" talking point can also mobilize racial resentment without mentioning race. In the post-Citizens United era, with big money free to spend without limits, building worker power, income and jobs may be the only way to counter it."
Why I Returned My Medals
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9545-why-i-returned-my-medals
Graham Clumpner, Truthout: "I could see things deteriorating every day. Our contact with the locals only isolated us and made things worse. Our treatment of the prisoners was what changed me. When they were blindfolded and handcuffed, it was easy to see them as less than human. So, we treated them that way. The medal I returned outside the NATO summit was the Global War on Terrorism Medal or GWOT. I refer to it as the Global War OF Terrorism. That's what we are, the purveyors of terror to the people of Afghanistan and Iraq."
Robert Reich: Why We Have to End the Bush Tax Cuts for the Wealthy
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/9649-why-we-have-to-end-the-bush-tax-cuts-for-the-wealthy
Robert Reich, Robert Reich's Blog: "Bush promised the tax cuts would more than pay for themselves in terms of their alleged positive impact on the economy. The record shows they didn't. Job growth after the Bush tax cuts was a fraction of the growth under Bill Clinton - even before the economy crashed in late 2008. And the median wage dropped, adjusted for inflation."
Bringing the Battlefield to the Border
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9650-bringing-the-battlefield-to-the-border
Todd Miller, TomDispatch: "William 'Drew' Dodds, the salesperson for StrongWatch, a Tucson-based company, is at the top of his game when he describes developments on the southern border of the United States in football terms. In his telling, that boundary is the line of scrimmage, and the technology his company is trying to sell - a mobile surveillance system named Freedom-On-The-Move, a camera set atop a retractable mast outfitted in the bed of a truck and maneuvered with an Xbox controller - acts like a 'roving linebacker.'"
Gold Rush in Haiti! Who Will Get Rich?
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9646-gold-rush-in-haiti-who-will-get-rich
Jane Regan, Haiti Grassroots Watch: "The gold rush that has been quietly shaping up over the past several years promises to produce some $20 billion in wealth, but where will the money go? Who will get rich? And at what cost?"
Turkish Court Indicts Senior Israeli Military Officials in Murders on Gaza Flotilla
http://truth-out.org/news/item/9655-turkish-court-indicts-senior-israeli-military-officials
Ann Wright, War Is A Crime: "On May 28, 2012, almost two years after the Israeli attack, a court in Istanbul, Turkey, voted unanimously to approve an indictment against Israel's former military chief Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, as well as for Eliezer Marom, Amos Yadlin, and Avishai Levi, the former heads of the Israeli Navy, Air Force Intelligence, and Military Intelligence. If convicted, each faces nine consecutive life terms in prison for 'inciting to kill monstrously, and by torturing.'
Radicalization Within the Armed Forces: DoD Losing Sight of the Forest for the Trees
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/9664-radicalization-within-the-armed-forces-dod-losing-sight-of-the-forest-for-the-trees
Mikey Weinstein, AlterNet: "Peering inward, the top brass of the United States Armed Forces have dangerously lost sight of the forest for the trees. Invoking myopic, misleading drivel marinated in the 'bath salts' of fundamentalist Christian predation, it has become all too clear that the Pentagon is incapable of making truly sober assessments of the profound internal threats and weaknesses it faces."
TRUTHOUT'S BUZZFLASH DAILY HEADLINES
The Democrats Must Begin Advocating for the Working Class and Not Wall Street
http://blog.buzzflash.com/node/13535
Mark Karlin, BuzzFlash at Truthout: "Given that the Democrats have paid little attention to wage stagnation and reviving a domestic manufacturing base, it is likely that non-union workers and even lower-wage union workers are going to fall for the Walker/Koch brothers pitch: why should they pay for the benefits, pensions and salaries of public employees when these workers are struggling to survive? That is the Walker explicit and implicit question. And it worked."
