William Rivers Pitt | When the President Comes to Town
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12149-when-the-president-comes-to-town
William Rivers Pitt, Truthout: During last night's debate, Obama did very well, while Romney appeared astonished at having to avoid a counterpunch for most of the event, and spent virtually the entire evening falling over every lie he has told since 1994.
Truthout Files FOIA Lawsuit Against Department of Justice/FBI for Occupy Wall Street Documents
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12166-truthout-files-foia-lawsuit-against-department-of-justice-fbi-for-occupy-wall-street-documents
Jason Leopold, Truthout: Truthout has filed a lawsuit against the Department of Justice over the FBI's failure to release documents in relation to Occupy Wall Street. These documents, which the FBI previously claimed did not exist, have since been confirmed but after a year have not been released.
Jim Hightower | The Dirty Little Secrets of Private Equity
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12162-the-dirty-little-secret-of-private-equity-profits
Jim Hightower, Truthout: Private equity firms like Kohlberg Kravis Roberts and Romney's own Bain Capital are about to spend $22 billion to buy and sell small takeovers in an attempt to keep their funds in house. It is called collusion, and it will do nothing but harm the economy.
When a Drone Flies Over Waziristan, Does It Make a Sound?
http://truth-out.org/opinion/item/12174-when-a-drone-flies-over-waziristan-does-it-make-a-sound
Robert Naiman, Truthout: It's convenient to believe that the drone strike policy is narrowly targeted on top-level terrorist leaders and has killed few civilians, because the alternative belief, that our government has cavalierly killed many innocent civilians for no good reason, is pretty awful to contemplate.
Green Party Ticket Arrested at Presidential Debate
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12168-green-party-ticket-arrested-at-presidential-debate
Allison Kilkenny, The Nation: To add to the many obstacles Green Party candidate Jill Stein has faced in her run for the presidency, she was arrested at last night's debate for obstructing traffic, ending her desire to debate how to hold banks fully accountable for 2008 economic crash.
Romney's Bain Capital Is Sending Many Jobs to China the Day Before the Election
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12151-romneys-bain-capital-is-sending-many-jobs-to-china-the-day-before-the-election
Joshua Holland, AlterNet: Because Romney has no direct involvement in the operations of Bain (even though he continues to profit from the company), the Sensata story has had little impact on the presidential race. But the real issue is that Mitt is directly responsible for its business model.
At Last Night's Debate: Romney Told 31 Myths in 41 Minutes
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12158-at-last-nights-debate-romney-told-31-myths-in-41-minutes
Igor Volsky, ThinkProgress: "During the second presidential debate, Mitt Romney made promises about Pell grants, tax deductions and energy independence that his plan simply cannot deliver. He once again proves that facts are not important to his campaign or his platform."
Koch Social Media Policy May Be Unlawful; Employers Still Have Broad Leeway to Limit Employee Speech
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12150-koch-social-media-policy-may-be-unlawful-employers-still-have-broad-leeway-to-limit-employee-speech
Brendan Fischer, PRWatch: Thanks to Citizens United, private employers can limit their employees' speech, since the First Amendment only protects against government infringement on free speech and expression. Employers also have leeway to fire workers for their political activities.
On the News With Thom Hartmann: Obama Painted Romney as Out of Touch in Last Night's Debate, and More
http://truth-out.org/video/item/12172-on-the-news-with-thom-hartmann
In today's On the News segment: Mitt Romney falsely accuses President Obama of not calling the events in Libya a terrorist act, the United States Postal Service has met its credit limit with the Treasury Department, an appeal to end early voting in Ohio was denied by the Supreme Court, and more.
Nebraska Pipeline Debate Dies Down Despite Unresolved Problems With Keystone XL Route
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12156-nebraska-pipeline-debate-dies-down-despite-unresolved-problems-with-keystone-xl-route
Lisa Song, InsideClimate News: The latest reroute moves the pipeline away from land owned by outspoken opponents but does little to avoid shallow water sources.
Drug Legalization in Latin America: Could It Be the Answer?
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12154-drug-legalization-in-latin-america-could-it-be-the-answer
Gene Bolton, Council on Hemispheric Affairs: Last March, Central American nations held a drug legalization summit and garnered support for this policy throughout the region. This analysis compares the potential benefits and shortcomings of drug legalization as a policy initiative to reduce overall drug crime.
Expanding the Debate With Third Party Candidates Jill Stein, Virgil Goode and Rocky Anderson
http://truth-out.org/news/item/12159-expanding-the-debate-with-third-party-candidates-jill-stein-virgil-goode-and-rocky-anderson
Amy Goodman, Democracy Now!: Obama and Romney sparred last night in their second debate. Today we expand the debate by including the voices of three presidential candidates shut out of the official debate: Jill Stein of the Green Party, Constitution Party nominee Virgil Goode and Justice Party candidate Rocky Anderson.
