A short bio of the this creative artist by himself:
Hmn- as I sit before my keyboard, I find it kinda tough to come up with much to say about myself...
I'm a 32-year-old freelance illustrator/animator/web developer residing in the beautiful town of Montclair, New Jersey with two cats, a roomie and two ferrets.
Although I have no formal education in political affairs, I have been studying history, politics, and sociology for the past 16 years. While it's not much, it's more experience than Rush Limbaugh, Michael "Savage" Wiener, and Sean Hannity had, combined, before they began spewing their filth into the vox populi.
Somewhere in the middle of March, moved by the anger and frustration I felt at the unelected government that currently runs the show here in the United States, I created a little piece of flash called antiwar2. Within days, it had been featured on Buzzflash. The next thing I knew I was getting hundreds of e-mails, and my webserver was overloaded to the point that I had to move it to a new host.
Since then, I've been creating further animations, and building a new site to house them.
When I'm not married to the computer, I spend my time reading, drawing, and trying to stay sane in a country gone mad.
Have a nice day everybody,

This cat burglar is really a cat
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Associated Press
July 24, 2003 | SIMI VALLEY, Calif. (AP) -- A cat burglar's booty is
being hoarded in a Ventura County home.
A marauding feline named Midnight -- now dubbed Klepto Cat -- has been
sneaking off in the dark to raid neighbors' homes, garages, sheds and
patios, bringing home shoes, hats, shirts, socks and even a wrapped
Christmas present.
It's stressful for pet owners Richard and Sue Boyd.
"We get so embarrassed by this," Sue Boyd said. "We wake up in the
morning and go out and there's stuff under the truck. The cat leaves
things all over. We don't want these things."
"He's a klepto cat," her husband said.
Each day, Midnight's owners leave a bag with the purloined goods hanging
from their mailbox so neighbors can reclaim missing items.
It is unclear why Midnight prefers wearables.
Gary Sampson, an Indianapolis-based veterinarian who specializes in cat
behavior, said the 13-year-old cat is probably drawn to body odors.
"He's obviously a hunter," Sampson said. "He's doing this at night. This
is when they can get prey. It's just an extension of that."
Police Sgt. Paul Fitzpatrick said there isn't anything the police could
do about Midnight's crimes, except refer the complaint to animal control.

Did George W. Bush Invade Iraq by Lying?
Why did Bush start a war that:
Has killed hundreds of American servicemen and women, and seriously
injured hundreds more?
Has killed thousands of Iraq civilians, many of them women and children
Will cost American Tax payers more than $100 Billion, of money desperately
needed here at home?
Has destroyed America's credibility around the world?
Has already significantly damaged morale, confidence, and the readiness of
the US armed forces?

Liar! Liar! Speech on Fire!
by The Angry Liberal
On Tuesday, the White House finally came clean and admitted what everybody else already knew: George W. Bush lied about Iraq's alleged attempt to purchase uranium from the African nation of Niger in order to reconstitute its nuclear weapons program. Here's what the White House statement said about Bush's inclusion of this lie in his 2003 State of the Union message:
The problem with this statement is that the White House did know then all that they know now.

20 Lies About the War
Falsehoods ranging from exaggeration to plain untruth were used to make the case for war. More lies are being used in the aftermath. By Glen Rangwala and Raymond Whitaker
http://news.independent.co.uk/uk/politics/story.jsp?story=424008
13 July 2003
1. Iraq was responsible for the 11 September attacks
A supposed meeting in Prague between Mohammed Atta, leader of the 11 September hijackers, and an Iraqi intelligence official was the main basis for this claim, but Czech intelligence later conceded that the Iraqi's contact could not have been Atta. This did not stop the constant stream of assertions that Iraq was involved in 9/11, which was so successful that at one stage opinion polls showed that two-thirds of Americans believed the hand of Saddam Hussein was behind the attacks. Almost as many believed Iraqi hijackers were aboard the crashed airliners; in fact there were none.
2. Iraq and al-Qa'ida were working together
Persistent claims by US and British leaders that Saddam and Osama bin Laden were in league with each other were contradicted by a leaked British Defence Intelligence Staff report, which said there were no current links between them. Mr Bin Laden's "aims are in ideological conflict with present-day Iraq", it added.
Another strand to the claims was that al-Qa'ida members were being sheltered in Iraq, and had set up a poisons training camp. When US troops reached the camp, they found no chemical or biological traces.
3. Iraq was seeking uranium from Africa for a "reconstituted" nuclear weapons programme
The head of the CIA has now admitted that documents purporting to show that Iraq tried to import uranium from Niger in west Africa were forged, and that the claim should never have been in President Bush's State of the Union address. Britain sticks by the claim, insisting it has "separate intelligence". The Foreign Office conceded last week that this information is now "under review".
4. Iraq was trying to import aluminium tubes to develop nuclear weapons
The US persistently alleged that Baghdad tried to buy high-strength aluminum tubes whose only use could be in gas centrifuges, needed to enrich uranium for nuclear weapons. Equally persistently, the International Atomic Energy Agency said the tubes were being used for artillery rockets. The head of the IAEA, Mohamed El Baradei, told the UN Security Council in January that the tubes were not even suitable for centrifuges.
5. Iraq still had vast stocks of chemical and biological weapons from the first Gulf War
Iraq possessed enough dangerous substances to kill the whole world, it was alleged more than once. It had pilotless aircraft which could be smuggled into the US and used to spray chemical and biological toxins. Experts pointed out that apart from mustard gas, Iraq never had the technology to produce materials with a shelf-life of 12 years, the time between the two wars. All such agents would have deteriorated to the point of uselessness years ago.
6. Iraq retained up to 20 missiles which could carry chemical or biological warheads, with a range which would threaten British forces in Cyprus
Apart from the fact that there has been no sign of these missiles since the invasion, Britain downplayed the risk of there being any such weapons in Iraq once the fighting began. It was also revealed that chemical protection equipment was removed from British bases in Cyprus last year, indicating that the Government did not take its own claims seriously.
7. Saddam Hussein had the wherewithal to develop smallpox
This allegation was made by the Secretary of State, Colin Powell, in his address to the UN Security Council in February. The following month the UN said there was nothing to support it.
8. US and British claims were supported by the inspectors
According to Jack Straw, chief UN weapons inspector Hans Blix "pointed out" that Iraq had 10,000 litres of anthrax. Tony Blair said Iraq's chemical, biological and "indeed the nuclear weapons programme" had been well documented by the UN. Mr Blix's reply? "This is not the same as saying there are weapons of mass destruction," he said last September. "If I had solid evidence that Iraq retained weapons of mass destruction or were constructing such weapons, I would take it to the Security Council." In May this year he added: "I am obviously very interested in the question of whether or not there were weapons of mass destruction, and I am beginning to suspect there possibly were not."
9. Previous weapons inspections had failed
Tony Blair told this newspaper in March that the UN had "tried unsuccessfully for 12 years to get Saddam to disarm peacefully". But in 1999 a Security Council panel concluded: "Although important elements still have to be resolved, the bulk of Iraq's proscribed weapons programmes has been eliminated." Mr Blair also claimed UN inspectors "found no trace at all of Saddam's offensive biological weapons programme" until his son-in-law defected. In fact the UN got the regime to admit to its biological weapons programme more than a month before the defection.
10. Iraq was obstructing the inspectors
Britain's February "dodgy dossier" claimed inspectors' escorts were "trained to start long arguments" with other Iraqi officials while evidence was being hidden, and inspectors' journeys were monitored and notified ahead to remove surprise. Dr Blix said in February that the UN had conducted more than 400 inspections, all without notice, covering more than 300 sites. "We note that access to sites has so far been without problems," he said. : "In no case have we seen convincing evidence that the Iraqi side knew that the inspectors were coming."
11. Iraq could deploy its weapons of mass destruction in 45 minutes
This now-notorious claim was based on a single source, said to be a serving Iraqi military officer. This individual has not been produced since the war, but in any case Tony Blair contradicted the claim in April. He said Iraq had begun to conceal its weapons in May 2002, which meant that they could not have been used within 45 minutes.
12. The "dodgy dossier"
Mr Blair told the Commons in February, when the dossier was issued: "We issued further intelligence over the weekend about the infrastructure of concealment. It is obviously difficult when we publish intelligence reports." It soon emerged that most of it was cribbed without attribution from three articles on the internet. Last month Alastair Campbell took responsibility for the plagiarism committed by his staff, but stood by the dossier's accuracy, even though it confused two Iraqi intelligence organisations, and said one moved to new headquarters in 1990, two years before it was created.
13. War would be easy
Public fears of war in the US and Britain were assuaged by assurances that oppressed Iraqis would welcome the invading forces; that "demolishing Saddam Hussein's military power and liberating Iraq would be a cakewalk", in the words of Kenneth Adelman, a senior Pentagon official in two previous Republican administrations. Resistance was patchy, but stiffer than expected, mainly from irregular forces fighting in civilian clothes. "This wasn't the enemy we war-gamed against," one general complained.
14. Umm Qasr
The fall of Iraq's southernmost city and only port was announced several times before Anglo-American forces gained full control - by Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, among others, and by Admiral Michael Boyce, chief of Britain's defence staff. "Umm Qasr has been overwhelmed by the US Marines and is now in coalition hands," the Admiral announced, somewhat prematurely.
15. Basra rebellion
Claims that the Shia Muslim population of Basra, Iraq's second city, had risen against their oppressors were repeated for days, long after it became clear to those there that this was little more than wishful thinking. The defeat of a supposed breakout by Iraqi armour was also announced by military spokesman in no position to know the truth.
16. The "rescue" of Private Jessica Lynch
Private Jessica Lynch's "rescue" from a hospital in Nasiriya by American special forces was presented as the major "feel-good" story of the war. She was said to have fired back at Iraqi troops until her ammunition ran out, and was taken to hospital suffering bullet and stab wounds. It has since emerged that all her injuries were sustained in a vehicle crash, which left her incapable of firing any shot. Local medical staff had tried to return her to the Americans after Iraqi forces pulled out of the hospital, but the doctors had to turn back when US troops opened fire on them. The special forces encountered no resistance, but made sure the whole episode was filmed.
17. Troops would face chemical and biological weapons
As US forces approached Baghdad, there was a rash of reports that they would cross a "red line", within which Republican Guard units were authorised to use chemical weapons. But Lieutenant General James Conway, the leading US marine general in Iraq, conceded afterwards that intelligence reports that chemical weapons had been deployed around Baghdad before the war were wrong.
" It was a surprise to me ... that we have not uncovered weapons ... in some of the forward dispersal sites," he said. "We've been to virtually every ammunition supply point between the Kuwaiti border and Baghdad, but they're simply not there. We were simply wrong. Whether or not we're wrong at the national level, I think still very much remains to be seen."
18. Interrogation of scientists would yield the location of WMD
" I have got absolutely no doubt that those weapons are there ... once we have the co-operation of the scientists and the experts, I have got no doubt that we will find them," Tony Blair said in April. Numerous similar assurances were issued by other leading figures, who said interrogations would provide the WMD discoveries that searches had failed to supply. But almost all Iraq's leading scientists are in custody, and claims that lingering fears of Saddam Hussein are stilling their tongues are beginning to wear thin.
19. Iraq's oil money would go to Iraqis
Tony Blair complained in Parliament that "people falsely claim that we want to seize" Iraq's oil revenues, adding that they should be put in a trust fund for the Iraqi people administered through the UN. Britain should seek a Security Council resolution that would affirm "the use of all oil revenues for the benefit of the Iraqi people".
Instead Britain co-sponsored a Security Council resolution that gave the US and UK control over Iraq's oil revenues. There is no UN-administered trust fund.
Far from "all oil revenues" being used for the Iraqi people, the resolution continues to make deductions from Iraq's oil earnings to pay in compensation for the invasion of Kuwait in 1990.
20. WMD were found
After repeated false sightings, both Tony Blair and George Bush proclaimed on 30 May that two trailers found in Iraq were mobile biological laboratories. "We have already found two trailers, both of which we believe were used for the production of biological weapons," said Mr Blair. Mr Bush went further: "Those who say we haven't found the banned manufacturing devices or banned weapons - they're wrong. We found them." It is now almost certain that the vehicles were for the production of hydrogen for weather balloons, just as the Iraqis claimed - and that they were exported by Britain.

The "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was False" Headline That Changed on CBSNews.com
A BUZZFLASH NEWS ANALYSIS
In case you were wondering about the change in the CBSNews.com headline from "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was False" to "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was Dubious," none other than the right wing bad boy and charter member of the vast right wing conspiracy, Brent Bozell, takes note of the original CBS headline that ran until this morning.
(For the article in question, go to: LINK)
The following is an excerpt from Bozell's Media Research Center's (a right wing "prove the media is liberal" organization) July 11th news alert:
***Media Research Center CyberAlert***

####
1) Exaggerating its own story. "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was False," declared the headline over a posting on the CBSNews.com Web site and John Roberts opened Thursday's CBS Evening News by announcing: " President Bush's false claim about Iraqi weapons. He made it despite a CIA warning the intelligence was bad." In fact, in the actual story CBS's David Martin reported something far short of the "Bush knew" summary or that the CIA said "the intelligence was bad.
A BUZZFLASH NEWS ANALYSIS
* * *
BuzzFlash Note: Actually, CBS news is the best national mainstream broadcast news provider. The change of the headline was probably due to caution. They realized that they could prove that Bush was told that the Niger uranium claim was highly doubtful. But they might not be able to prove that he was told that it was categorically false, at this time, anyway.

ADDITIONAL FACTS TO CONSIDER
BUSH CLAIM
"President Bush said today his charge Iraq tried to buy nuclear material from Africa was approved by his 'intelligence services,' and U.S. national security adviser Condoleeza Rice said the specific wording was approved by the CIA" [Reuters, 7/11/03, LINK]

The "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was False" Headline That Changed on CBSNews.com
A BUZZFLASH NEWS ANALYSIS
In case you were wondering about the change in the CBSNews.com headline from "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was False" to "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was Dubious," none other than the right wing bad boy and charter member of the vast right wing conspiracy, Brent Bozell, takes note of the original CBS headline that ran until this morning.
(For the article in question, go to: LINK)
The following is an excerpt from Bozell's Media Research Center's (a right wing "prove the media is liberal" organization) July 11th news alert:
***Media Research Center CyberAlert***

####
1) Exaggerating its own story. "Bush Knew Iraq Info Was False," declared the headline over a posting on the CBSNews.com Web site and John Roberts opened Thursday's CBS Evening News by announcing: " President Bush's false claim about Iraqi weapons. He made it despite a CIA warning the intelligence was bad." In fact, in the actual story CBS's David Martin reported something far short of the "Bush knew" summary or that the CIA said "the intelligence was bad.
A BUZZFLASH NEWS ANALYSIS
* * *
BuzzFlash Note: Actually, CBS news is the best national mainstream broadcast news provider. The change of the headline was probably due to caution. They realized that they could prove that Bush was told that the Niger uranium claim was highly doubtful. But they might not be able to prove that he was told that it was categorically false, at this time, anyway.

Bush Knew Iraq Info Was False
WASHINGTON, July 10, 2003
Senior administration officials tell CBS News the President's mistaken
claim that Iraq tried to buy uranium from Africa was included in his State
of the Union address -- despite objections from the CIA.
Before the speech was delivered, the portions dealing with Iraq's weapons
of mass destruction were checked with the CIA for accuracy, reports CBS
News National Security Correspondent David Martin.
CIA officials warned members of the President's National Security Council
staff the intelligence was not good enough to make the flat statement Iraq
tried to buy uranium from Africa.
The White House officials responded that a paper issued by the British
government contained the unequivocal assertion: "Iraq has ... sought
significant quantities of uranium from Africa." As long as the statement
was attributed to British Intelligence, the White House officials argued,
it would be factually accurate. The CIA officials dropped their objections
and that's how it was delivered.
"The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought
significant quantities of uranium from Africa," Mr. Bush said.
The statement was technically correct, since it accurately reflected the
British paper. But the bottom line is the White House knowingly included
in a presidential address information its own CIA had explicitly warned
might not be true.

MSNBC Fires Michael Savage. Who Ever Hired Him Should be Fired Too.
MSNBC Fires Host Savage for Wishing AIDS on Caller
By Ben Berkowitz
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Cable news channel MSNBC on Monday fired Michael
Savage after the controversial talk show host wished AIDS on a caller whom
he dismissed as "one of the sodomites."
Savage had been under fire from gay rights groups since February when the
network announced it had hired the conservative commentator to host a TV
version of his popular talk radio show.
Saturday's episode of "The Savage Nation," his 15th since the program's
debut in March, featured Savage discussing air travel with callers.
One caller began discussing his experiences, and after an unintelligible
part of the call, Savage asked him "So are you one of those sodomists?"
When the caller said, "Yes I am," Savage, reclining in a chair with his
arms folded and wearing dark sunglasses, responded, "Oh, you're one of the
sodomites! You should only get AIDS and die, you pig!" in a clip of the
show hosted on the Web site of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against
Defamation.
An MSNBC representative was not immediately available to comment, but a
source familiar with the matter confirmed that the show had been canceled.

The Middle Road to Extremism
by P.M. Carpenter
A leading conservative strategist recently offered this explanation as to why, going into a reelection campaign, Bush II has right wingers in the bag and Bush I did not: "Every group that this president [keeps] faith with, the previous president double-crossed."
Most would concede the assessment’s overall fairness. Yet, while doing no injury to the strategist's originality, there is a more telling way to phrase it: "Every group that the previous president kept faith with, this president double-crosses."

Now HERE'S an idea (from The Boston Globe) that is worth considering. I'm going to find out more about it. Sounds good to me. Turn-about IS fair play!

Website turns tables on government officials
By Hiawatha Bray, Globe Staff, 7/4/2003
Annoyed by the prospect of a massive new federal surveillance system, two researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology are celebrating the Fourth of July with a new Internet service that will let citizens create dossiers on government officials.
The system will start by offering standard background information on politicians, but then go one bold step further, by asking Internet users to submit their own intelligence reports on government officials -- reports that will be published with no effort to verify their accuracy.
''It's sort of a citizen's intelligence agency,'' said Chris Csikszentmihalyi, assistant professor at the MIT Media Lab.
He and graduate student Ryan McKinley created the Government Information Awareness (GIA) project as a response to the US government's Total Information Awareness program (TIA).
Revealed last year, TIA seeks to track possible terrorist activity by analyzing vast amounts of information stored in government and private databases, such as credit card data. The system would use this information to analyze the actions of millions of people, in an effort to spot patterns that could indicate a terrorist threat.
News of the plan outraged civil libertarians and prompted Congress to set limits on the scope of such activity. The Defense Department then renamed the program Terrorist Information Awareness, to ease public concern.
But the controversy gave McKinley the idea for the GIA project. ''If total information exists,'' he said, ''really the same effort should be spent to make the same information at the leadership level at least as transparent -- in my opinion, more transparent.''
McKinley worked with Csikszentmihalyi to design the GIA system. It's partly based on technology used to create Internet indexes such as Google. Software crawls around Internet sites that store large amounts of information about politicians. These include independent political sites like opensecrets.org, as well as sites run by government agencies. McKinley created software that ferrets out the useful data from these sites, and loads it into the GIA database. The result is a one-stop research site for basic information on key officials.
The site also takes advantage of round-the-clock political coverage provided by cable TV's C-Span networks. McKinley and Csikszentmihalyi use video cameras to capture images of people appearing on C-Span, which generally includes the names of people shown on screen. A computer program ''reads'' each name, and links it to any information about that person stored in the database. By clicking on the picture, a GIA user instantly gets a complete rundown on all available data about that person.
The GIA site constantly displays snapshots of the people appearing on C-Span at that moment. If there's a dossier on a particular person, clicking on the picture brings it up. A C-Span viewer watching a live government hearing could learn which companies have contributed to a member of Congress's reelection campaign, before the politician had even finished speaking.
All of the information currently on the site is available from public sources. But GIA will go one step further. Starting today, the site will allow the public to submit information about government officials, and this information will be made available to anyone visiting the site. No effort will be made to verify the accuracy of the data.
This approach to Internet publishing isn't new. It resembles a method known as Wiki, in which a website is constantly amended by visitors who contribute new information. The best known Wiki site, www.wikipedia.org, is an online encyclopedia created entirely by visitors who have voluntarily written nearly 140,000 articles, on subjects ranging from astronomy to Roman mythology. Any Wikipedia user who thinks he has spotted an error or wants to add information can modify the article. Unlike at a standard encyclopedia operation, there is no central authority to edit or reject articles.
The GIA approach, though, raises the possibility that people could post libelous information, or data that unreasonably compromises a person's privacy.
That troubles Barry Steinhardt, director of the Technology & Liberty Program of the American Civil Liberties Union. ''We think that there should be some restrictions on the publishing of personally identifiable information, whether it involves government officials or not,'' he said.
But he noted that the public has a right to know some things about a politician that would be properly kept private about an ordinary citizen. For instance, voters have a right to know where a politician sends his children to school, if that politician has taken a strong stand on school vouchers.
''Do they have the right to publish every piece of data they're going to publish?'' Steinhardt asked. ''It's going to depend on what they publish.''
In any case, Steinhardt said, McKinley and Csikszentmihalyi have a First Amendment right to set up the GIA project. And he said that it's a valuable response to the government's TIA surveillance. ''I assume the point of this is, turnabout is fair play.''
On a page of the GIA website, at opengov.media.mit.edu, McKinley and Csikszentmihalyi give their answer to questions about the legitimacy of their actions.
''Is it legal?'' the site reads. ''It should be.''

Political & Personal Astrology for a New Millennium
Before a new government is established in Iraq, it would behoove the
American people to demand nation building here at home. That would include
establishing a representative Democracy in a free Republic; the rebuilding
of crumbling infrastructure; health care for everyone the rich have used as
their personal footstools; and a public school system that educates rather
than indoctrinates. The United States of America is in serious danger of
collapse. She is crying out for regime change -- liberation from the yoke of
a dry drunk dictator.
Check out this link to an editorial/expose on Buzzflash. Click the suggested
links in the piece as well. Oh, yes. Bush had plenty of warning re 9-11. No
doubt about it. I know I can be a pest with this stuff, but I can't say it
strongly enough: our country has been hijacked by hoodlums.
And I know that you know.....
