We want a free and democratic Palestine with the power and freedom of self determination without the control of Israel and the United States. Tear down the apartheid wall and allow the people of Palestine to have back their land before the 1967 war with the right of return for the the people of Palestine who lost or left their land to escape the war.

A coalition of organizations including the League of Education Voters, a rather poorly named organization, just filed to have an initiative placed on the ballot. The initiative asks for funding to be diverted from public schools into charter schools. I ask you to pledge to not sigin any signature gathering petitions for this initiative.

On November 18, 2009, our son Faran Khan, was beaten and viciously stabbed with a tire iron by three men causing his death while playing at a park. Only “one” of the three men has even been charged with “any offense”. And the one charged was released after an ineffective prosecution.

When people are out of work and homeless, the money spent on campaigning makes me sick, I think all campaigns should give 10% of the funds collected to charities that feed the homeless. I would feel more motivated to give to the campaign if I knew 10% would go to help the homeless.

Hey Kansan, Do you feel like our state has become a testing ground for religious fundamentalists, racists, and the 1%? You are not alone. But let’s face it, the Republicans are here to stay.

U.S. Senator from Alaska Mark Begich is holding up the promotion deserving of Lt. General Herbert J. Carlisle for matters unrelated to this individual's dedication to serve our country.

According to the Austin American Statesman, Trammell Crow Co. have been OKed by the city of Austin to start construction on a planned " two towers- each at least 30 stories tall- with 826 apartments, a 17-story hotel, a 28-story office tower and 82,000 square feet of retail space." The city of Austin is NOT holding the company responsible for going through the formal process or getting permits for the cutting down of 7 trees on site that are greater than 24 in. in diameter. Besides the construction itself creating an enormous amount of waste, the destruction of these trees is a waste of the uniqueness that Austin is. If Trammell Crow Co. is going to build in Austin they need to take responsibility in respecting the land they build on.

Up until 2006, the United States Post Office has been making a profit year after year for the US government by simply selling postage and stamps. Ever since George W. Bush passed the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006 (PAEA), which obligates the USPS to prefund 75-years worth of future health care benefit payments to retirees within a ten-year time span — a requirement to which no other government organization is subject. Thus, in addition to the weak economy and the diversion of mail to electronic means, the mandates of PAEA have had a considerable impact on Postal Service finances. As a consequence, it has been charged that the US Postal Service budget crisis of 2011 is, in essence, an artificial one. Sign to tell let the government know you see their phony ways to cause fully functioning AND thriving government services to be bullied into legislated financial extinction by private corporate entities like competitors: FedEx and UPS spent money to back this bill to help edge out some federal competition.

The term hydrofracking is misleading terminology. Since hydroelectric is the only hydro most people know about, the implicit harm and misleading nature of accidental logical connection of forms of power that are on opposite ends of the renewable energy spectrum shall be prevented. Hydraulic Fracturing has infiltrated many areas of the country already, many areas without hydroelectric opportunities. The scheme of paying certain people money to support this alleged clean technique, while stealing resources from states and neighbors, using methods which are unrelated to pure sand and water that people may infer, and a fracturing mixture that contains many chemicals to induce fractures in bedrock has many documented and undocumented harmful effects. No matter how many resources we scrape up using costly techniques such as this or tar oil sands, the resources will not last long enough nor will the environmental cost be justifiable in hindsight once the resources are gone. The costs will inevitably skyrocket and people will loose their ability to support themselves, taken once again by the entrepreneurial nature of such investments. It is no way to invest in the future, especially when safer cleaner techniques are available. We have enough resources already to build alternatives that will last into the future, tapping into what ought to be the final reserves of a dying species is avoidable and ought to be avoided. If we continue investing only in our selfish propellants we avoid addressing stability in our own futures on this planet.

The PMG has moved to consolidate and close many post offices and processing plants across the nation. He has also changed the delivery standards which hurts our bottom line and will cause the loss of many of our customers who will choose alternate delivery companies. You need to ACT NOW to help preserve the postal service. Reject HR 2309 which will destroy the USPS.
