Justice Party Presidential Candidate Rocky Anderson Speaks Candidly on the =
Crumbling State of the Union

idate-rocky-anderson-speaks-candidly-on-the-crumbling-state-of-the-union=20
Ron Boyer, Truthout: "Is Rocky Anderson a veritable Don Quixote of post-mod=
ern American politics, tilting at the windmills of the national political e=
stablishment, where the Big Game seems well rigged? Or is he another vision=
ary voice crying in the wilderness against the perils of American plutocrac=
y?"
The Battle Over NDAA's Police-State Provisions Continues in Court
http://truth-out.org/news/item/11124-the-battle-over-ndaas-police-state-pro=
visions-continues-in-court=20
Jake Olzen, Waging Nonviolence: "On August 6, Department of Justice lawyers=
filed an appeal in federal court against a recent ruling that temporarily =
enjoined section 1021 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), whi=
ch gives powers to the military to indefinitely detain U.S. citizens - on U=
.S. soil - without charge or trial. The case, and the organizing that surro=
unds it, will have profound implications for basic constitutional rights, t=
hough it has been largely ignored by the mainstream media."
Invisible Americans Get the Silent Treatment
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/11126-invisible-americans-get-the-silent-=
treatment=20
Bill Moyers and Michael Winship, Moyers & Company: "Official Washington con=
tinues to see poverty with tunnel vision =E2=80=93 'out of sight, out of mi=
nd' ... Tipping their hats to America's impoverished while themselves seeki=
ng handouts from billionaires and corporations is a bad habit that includes=
President Obama, who of all people should know better."
The Fight Against SB 1070 and the Prison Industry in Arizona
http://truth-out.org/news/item/11119-the-fight-against-sb-1070-and-the-pris=
on-industry-in-arizona=20
Matthew Johnson, North American Congress on Latin America: "What is unique =
about SB 1070 is perhaps not its inevitably racist application nor its expa=
nsion of police powers, but rather the fact that the law represents a new t=
ack in corporate governance of immigration policy in the United States.... =
After witnessing the effects of prison industry profiteering in our own com=
munities, Tucson's Fuerza! coalition has responded with a campaign to build=
public opposition."
Throwing Some Humble Pies on Women's Equality Day
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/11123-throwing-some-humble-pies=20
Ellen Goodman, Washington Post Writers Group: "So, dear friends, we gather =
again to celebrate Aug. 26, the anniversary of the passage of women's suffr=
age. We honor our foremothers in our special way by handing out the Equal R=
ites Awards for those who have done the most to slow down progress."
The Conservative Psyche: How Ordinary People Come to Embrace Paul Ryan's Cr=
uelty
http://truth-out.org/news/item/11129-the-conservative-psyche-how-ordinary-p=
eople-come-to-embrace-paul-ryans-cruelty=20
Joshua Holland, AlterNet: "While liberals and conservatives often see their=
counterparts as horrible people these days, the reality, according to [cog=
nitive linguist George] Lakoff, is that they're processing information thro=
ugh very different, and often diametrically opposed moral frameworks."
On the Road to Ryan and Ruin=20
http://truth-out.org/news/item/11130-on-the-road-to-ryan-and-ruin=20
Lawrence Davidson, To the Point Analysis: "The Great Depression was a real =
moment of truth for the capitalist West because it suggested to the open-mi=
nded that the free market ideology was seriously flawed.... So the question=
that had to be answered was how best to modify the capitalist system so as=
to preserve the position of the ruling elite."
Solitary Confinement: Torture Chambers for Black Revolutionaries
http://truth-out.org/news/item/11127-solitary-confinement-torture-chambers-=
for-black-revolutionaries=20
Kanya D'Almeida and Bret Grote, Al Jazeera English: "An estimated 80,000 me=
n, women and even children are being held in solitary confinement on any gi=
ven day in US prisons.... But as happens with virtually all prison-related =
stories in the US mainstream media, the two most important words were left =
unprinted, unuttered: race and revolution."
Six Ways to Alleviate the Food vs. Fuel Issue
http://truth-out.org/news/item/11125-six-ways-to-alleviate-food-vs-fuel-iss=
ue=20
Jim Lane, Biofuels Digest: "With the US drought, food vs. fuel has returned=
as an issue. What alternatives are scientists, entrepreneurs developing to=
take us beyond the old debate?"
Murderous Art: Entertainment as a Precursor to Violence
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/11128-murderous-art-entertainment-as-a-pr=
ecursor-to-violence=20
Michael Nagler, Consortium News: "The rash of mass shootings in America spe=
aks not just to the absence of rational gun laws, but also to a culture tha=
t glorifies violence, in the reality of endless warfare and in the fantasy =
of entertainment."
Romney's Dirtier, Deadlier Energy Future: Is There Another Way?
http://truth-out.org/news/item/11120-romneys-dirtier-deadlier-energy-future=
-is-there-another-way=20
Sarah van Gelder, Yes! Magazine: "The oil-dependent economy Romney supports=
is a step toward an unstable, costly future. Renewables and energy efficie=
ncy offer real hope."
