Fox News Gone Too FarThe people at Fox News have taken it upon themselves to out one of the navy seals who carried out the raid and execution of Bin Laden. This "news" agency has decided to thank one of our greatest heros by exposing his name, home town, and home state not only endangering his own life but also endangering the lives of his family and his fellow townfolk. For years, Fox News has been stirring up fear, paranoia, and hatred in favor of their sick, twisted agenda. For me, this latest dispicable act is the last straw. If you are as sick of Fox News as I am, please sign this petition to call upon President Obama, congress, and the FCC to strip Fox News of their broadcast license once and for all!4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by John Henderson

Secret pacts for EducationThe money that is used for campaign adds prove that there is a lot of money that could be used to help the people of America. My proposal is that for every dollar spent on a campaign add an additional dollar be spent to upgrade the schools of America. There might even be enough to make college affordable.4 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jean Carroll

STOP Insurance Power PlaysDid you know that car insurance companies charge higher premiums if you are single? When I called my auto insurance company because they had me listed on the renewal as "married", I was told my premium would increase by $56.00/year. 3 other big insurance companies told me the same thing. No one has statistics showing singles are a higher risk.21 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Leslie Mahoney

Short sale cash offer refused by NationStar and Fannie MaeI have a cash buyer for my short sale, which I am losing today. NationStar asked for a certain amount from the buyer, which was met…in cash. Now NationStar and Fannie Mae demand we contribute money, we don't have. We have pleaded with them, to please accept this sale. They are throwing away nearly $90,000 in cash to penalize us. In these sobering economic times, it seems frivolous for a bank to do this. We honestly have no money to give them. Therefore they have started Foreclosure proceedings against us.86 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Cynthia Farrell

lynn bruserMy heart has been personally affected by the treatment of the animals in Circuses. Elephants are highly social,intelligent animals.The babies are stolen from their protective mothers in the wild. Their spirit is broken by electric prods,whips and chains. The public is totally unaware of the abuse-Ringling Bros has been fined hundreds of thousands of dollars for abuse. If we stop and think about it-have we ever seen tigers jumping through hoops of fire in the wild or elephants standing on their heads?The methods used to make these wild animals do such unnatural acts is horrifying in its cruelty. In chains they live and in chains they die. A former elephant trainer, Carol Buckley, realized the cruelty and opened the now famous Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee. The only animals that should be in a circus are those on 2 legs,until then we are all guilty of endorsing cruelty. We must expose this cruelty to an uniformed public.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by lynn bruser

Zoo World: Stop buying giraffes!!Zoo World is an extremely small "zoo" located in the tourist destination of Panama City Beach. The "zoo" is much too small for large animals, the enclosures are extremely small, and the animals look miserable, depressed and bored. Recently I pushed for the giraffe, Sydney, to have a larger enclosure. I discussed the issue with numerous people at Zoo World. One of which was the project manager and designer of the enclosures, he laughed stating "Animals do not need to move!! They move only for food and sex. Do you think they would run if they didn't have to?" They expanded the poor giraffe's enclosure by 600 square feet. The giraffe died recently and now Zoo World is raising money from the public to purchase TWO baby giraffes. This needs to stop. Zoo World is too small and doesn't have enough funds to offer this herd animal a good environment. Animals DO need exercise to stay healthy, both physically and mentally.

Stop the lies! Intentional falsification of the newsThe petition is about holding mass media accountable for their stories, and forcing news agencies to tell the truth. Most people, falsely assume, that major news reports represent the truth. Knowledge is power, and people need to have some confidence that they are being told the truth by the media. The issue affects all people who seek the truth. Distributing falsified information and intentionally misleading the public should be a crime when done by the mass media. ******************************* For more details and to locate the source for below quoted texts search for "FOX can lie lawsuit" "The attorneys for Fox, owned by media baron Rupert Murdoch, argued the First Amendment gives broadcasters the right to lie or deliberately distort news reports on the public airwaves." "In its six-page written decision, the Court of Appeals held that the Federal Communications Commission position against news distortion is only a “policy,” not a promulgated law, rule, or regulation. Fox aired a report after the ruling saying it was “totally vindicated” by the verdict."5 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jon Murray

Junk-Mortgage Securitized Bond Sales = Fraud!I have a questions about the classification and sale of junk-mortgage securitized bonds sold in the period prior to the Great Recession. Did the bond-rating agencies commit securities fraud by wrongly classifying these bonds as AAA? Same question about the banks and brokers who knowingly sold these bonds as AAA when they knew they were misrepresenting them? Isn’t that securities fraud? If so why haven’t they been prosecuted?2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Paul Cohn

Stop Corporate Suppression in the US and MexicoThe petition is about the fact that Global Corporations like Sharp pay Mexican workers about a dollar an hour, $50.00 a weeks wages when it costs $35.00 just for food. This is immoral and must be stopped. In the US it's about the same. Service jobs are about $9.50 an hour when it costs about $15.00 an hour just to survive. This evil and wrong.3 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Anthony R. Corig
