U.S. Investigates Voting Machines’ Venezuela Ties By TIM
GOLDEN, Published: October 29, 2006 in the New York Times
The federal government is investigating the takeover last year of
a leading American manufacturer of electronic voting systems by a
small software company that has been linked to the leftist
Venezuelan government of President
Hugo Chávez.
The inquiry is focusing on the
Venezuelan owners of the software company, the Smartmatic
Corporation, and is trying to determine whether the government in
Caracas has any control or influence over the firm’s operations,
government officials and others familiar with the investigation
said.
Teachers brace for strike Union taps
leader of 1989 walkout to aid fight for wage hike, reform

Under

mobilize members for a strike if its demands are not met.
United Teachers Los Angeles is
hiring a former UTLA president, Wayne Johnson, who organized a

consultant.
Jerry Brown May Not Meet
Legal Qualifications to be Attorney General
Republicans file lawsuit seeking to disqualify
Brown as candidate Filing says he's not active member of baR
10-20-2006 Sacramento Bureau of San Francisco Chronicle -- A lawsuit filed Thursday by two GOP party activists
claims Oakland Mayor Jerry Brown's failure to maintain an active
membership in the state bar for two of the past five years
disqualifies him from holding the office of attorney general.
State law says candidates for attorney general must have been
admitted to practice before the California Supreme Court for "at
least five years immediately preceding" election. Brown's status
with the State Bar was "inactive" from 1997 to 2003, which
prevented him not only from practicing law in California but from
reaching the five-year minimum, the lawsuit says. Click Here For the Rest of the Story

Politicians won’t touch it, air regulators hate to admit it
and tree advocates would rather not discuss it, but here’s
the ugly truth: Plants are a thriving source of air
pollution.
Tree emissions dwarf what
comes from dairy cows. Dairies are pegged as major
polluters, but plants out-emit dairies by more than 30-to-1
statewide. California’s trees release some 2,000 tons of
smog-forming gases daily. Dairies produce 60 tons each day.
All of it is harmless until
fumes from automobiles and other engines mix in, creating
summer smog. Because trees also have benefits, such as
sucking up carbon dioxide and providing shade, researchers
haven’t figured out whether they are overall good or bad for
pollution. Click Here For the Rest of the Story

OAKLAND: State Senate leader helps create plan targeting youths in

statewide - how does that make any sense?]
The state Senate leader on Monday called for street corner

and Richmond. "We better start seeing some progress, or I'm
going to be very disappointed," Sen. Don Perata, D-Oakland, told
the media at the Youth Uprising center in Oakland. Click

Addressing the NAACP’s annual meeting, President Bush made good
progress in reaching out to African- American voters. The warm
reception from the audience must have worried Democrats who
consider themselves owners of the African-American vote. Even more
important, however, than how the NAACP views the Republican Party
is how the Republican Party views itself.
As
Republicans embrace their heritage as “the party of Lincoln,” they
will understand the true heritage of the Democrats to be “the
party of slavery” and “the party of the Confederacy” and the party
of the Ku Klux Klan.” Click Here For the Rest of the Story

Why Did Terrorists Bomb India?
The recent bombing of trains in
India killing 200 or more people was another tragic example of the
worldwide war that the Islamo-fascists are waging against free
people. For those that blame America, Israel, Christians, or
any of the other usual suspects for the "oppression" of Muslims as
the cause of their anger, let's review some inconvenient facts...
India did NOT send any troops to
Iraq. India just voted for a U.N. Human Rights Council
resolution to condemn Israel at every meeting. The Students
Islamic Movement of India and Lashkar-e-Taiba (those responsible
for these bombings) aimed to kill Hindus and cripple India's
financial center. The goal of Lashkar-e-Taiba (which is
allied with Al Qaeda from which it receives financial support) is
to establish an Islamic state in India and subjugate the Hindus.
Lashkar-e-Taiba sent a French convert to Islam to Australia to
target military bases in Sydney. Support for Lashkar-e-Taiba
is widespread in Pakistan. Clearly, this is an organization
with global reach and sophistication.
Many may not like the facts, but a
worldwide network of very committed and very deadly people have
declared war on all free people, all people who do not conform to
their strict interpretation of Islam.
The time of choosing is upon us.
Do we fight or do we sit by complacently and watch free people in
America and beyond be sacked as the Romans were.
Today's militant leftists
not only spread lies about America's present but generate even
more damaging distortions about the nation's past and in so doing
differentiate themselves from the radical idealists of yesteryear.
...This negativity about the past directly threatens the nation's
future: spreading the idea among the younger generation that the
entire American project isn't worth sustaining or defending. Of
course, the idea of conscious "genocide" against Native Americans is
absurd despite Cindy Sheehan's claims of "virtual extinction of
our native population" there are more self-identified Indians
alive today than a hundred or even two hundred years ago.
Moreover, the assimilation and massive intermarriage with white
people (even Bill Clinton claimed to be "part Cherokee") erased
far more self-identified Indians than the relatively rare (but
undeniably loathsome) massacres by whites. Concerning slavery,
Americans never invented it or instituted it we inherited it, and
with such great discomfort that anti-slavery activists were far
better represented among the founding fathers (Franklin, Adams,
Hamilton) than those who made an active case for slavery. David
Brion Davis, the Yale professor who's written magisterially about
the history of the peculiar institution, makes clear the positive
role of the American Revolution and its ideals in giving life
(after many millennia of slavery) to the abolitionist movement
around the world that ultimately put an end to this savage
oppression. The United States, in other words, played a unique,
prominent role in ending the institution, but played no role in
establishing it.
Immigrant Sweep Snares 36 Molesters
The Southland offenders were among 2,100 non-deported criminals
arrested in a national crackdown. By
Amanda Covarrubias, Times Staff Writer
June 15, 2006
Thirty-six illegal immigrants who served time in Southern
California for child sex offenses and were later released instead
of being deported were among more than 2,100 illegal immigrants
arrested in a nationwide sweep, officials said Wednesday.
The crackdown brought into sharp focus a loophole that immigration
officials said they were trying to close. Illegal immigrants who
commit crimes in the United States are supposed to be deported
once they finish their jail or prison terms. But instead, many
remain in this country because jailers don't process them through
the federal deportation system, officials said.

"The Inconvenient Truth" is
indeed inconvenient to alarmists By Tom Harris Monday, June 12, 2006
"Scientists have an independent
obligation to respect and present the truth as they see it," Al
Gore sensibly asserts in his film "An Inconvenient Truth." With that outlook
in mind, what do world climate experts actually think about the
science of his movie?
Professor Bob Carter of the
Marine Geophysical Laboratory at James Cook University, in
Australia gives what, for many Canadians, is a surprising
assessment: "Gore's circumstantial arguments are so weak that they
are pathetic. It is simply incredible that they, and his film, are
commanding public attention."
But surely Carter is merely
part of what most people regard as a tiny cadre of "climate change
skeptics" who disagree with the "vast majority of scientists" Gore
cites?
No; Carter is one of hundreds
of highly qualified non-governmental, non-industry, non-lobby
group climate experts who contest the hypothesis that human
emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing significant global
climate change. "Climate experts" is the operative term here. Why?
Because what Gore's "majority of scientists" think is immaterial
when only a very small fraction of them actually work in the
climate field. Click here for the rest of

Why Terrorists Planned to Strike Canada?
<http://www.washingtontimes.com/op-ed/20060611-094354-8871r.htm> By Joel Mowbray Published June 12,
2006
In the predictable stories reporting the “astonishment” of friends and
neighbors about the Canadian terror suspects arrested last week, one
tidbit serves as a cautionary tale for the threat of homegrown terrorism
in the U.S.
One
of the 17 arrested, Qayyum Abdul Jamal, was an imam at a small
storefront mosque in suburban Toronto. Those who listened to his
sermons have told reporters that they didn’t promote violent jihad or
advocate killing non-Muslims. In a post-9/11 environment less
hospitable to such rhetoric, these denials actually could be true.
Mary McCarthy, a high-level official in the CIA's office of the
inspector general, was fired last week after failing a polygraph
test and, as The Washington Post reported, for "discussing
operational intelligence matters with journalists." Among
the journalists McCarthy leaked to was the Post's own Dana Priest,
who two weeks ago won a Pulitzer Prize for her reporting on, as
the Post put it, the "secret, CIA-run prisons for suspected
terrorists in eastern Europe and elsewhere."
Some in the mainstream media, along with key Democrats, came to
McCarthy's defense.... McCarthy, it seems, was a Democratic
Party operative — a mole. There's evidence for this.
McCarthy has given thousands over the years to Democratic
candidates, including Kerry. She also had deep ties to the Clinton
administration, serving as an aide to disgraced National Security
Adviser Sandy Berger.
That's why it's no surprise she leaked to the Post's Priest. As
dozens of Internet bloggers have noted, Priest herself has
sterling left-wing credentials. Her husband is William Goodfellow,
executive director of the Center for International Policy, a
far-left policy think tank that has basically staked its existence
on opposing any and all Bush administration policies in Iraq and
elsewhere. McCarthy told her tales not to some disinterested,
objective reporter, but to someone she knew would use it to hurt
President Bush.
Revealing secrets during wartime is against
the law, especially for spies who sign ironclad secrecy
agreements. As such, McCarthy's admission that she leaked to
Priest and possibly others makes her a criminal. A strong case can
be made that Priest is, too.
97 Illegal Aliens Arrested Working at
Military Bases & Other Critical Infrastructure over 5 months
In 11 different incidents from July
2005 through Jan 2006 over 97 illegal aliens were arrested while
working at "secure" military bases, airports, and refineries.
11 were arrested at a Naval Air Station in Texas, 14 at a refinery
in Louisiana, 22 at an Air Force base in New Mexico, 20 at New
Orleans Airport, 6 at a Naval Air Station in Louisiana, 1 at the
highly secure White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico, 3 at Fort
Bragg in North Carolina, 7 at an Air Force base in Mountain Home
Idaho, 6 at the Fort Irwin California army base, 6 at Homestead
Air Force base in Florida, and 1 at a Marine Logistics base in
Barstow, California. But there is no real security threat
posed by illegal immigration, right...

Imagine for a moment that your employer was required by
law to buy a plan to manage your nutrition needs - rather than simply
paying you a wage, out of which you buy the food you want to eat.
Or suppose the government required your employer to pay
for a housing plan, rather than paying you and letting you decide where
and how to live.
The "funeral" of Coretta Scott King turned into an ugly,
disrespectful political rally....
Listening to speaker after speaker complain about the
poor conditions under which minorities live, one wonders whether Martin
Luther King Jr. accomplished anything.
There stood Oprah Winfrey, the most powerful woman in
television, with her net worth estimated by Forbes magazine at $1.3
billion. And she recently signed a $55 million deal with XM Satellite
Radio. There stood poet Maya Angelou, who, in one recent year, grossed
$3.3 million according to Forbes, and lives in a mansion while employing
several people full time....
Most blacks are middle class and do not live in the inner
city. If black America were a separate country, its GDP would place it
at No. 16 in the world. Corporations like Time Warner, American Express
and Merrill Lynch all have black CEOs.
America, while not perfect, certainly has come a long,
long way since the day King led the Montgomery bus boycott. But the
funeral speakers confuse equal rights with equal results -- two very
different things. UCLA public policy professor emeritus James Q. Wilson
once said, "You need only do three things to avoid poverty in this
country: finish high school, marry before having a child, and produce
the child after the age of 20. Only 8 percent of families who do this
are poor; 79 percent of those who fail to do this are poor." Yet today's
"black leaders" demand reparations, set-asides, race-based preferences,
and still more welfare.
In 1911, Booker T. Washington seemed to address some of
those who spoke at the funeral when he said, "There is (a) class of
colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs
and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned
that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have
grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs -- partly
because they want sympathy, and partly because it pays. Some of these
people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not
want to lose their jobs. ... There is a certain class of race-problem
solvers who don't want the patient to get well, because as long as the
disease holds out they have not only an easy means of making a living,
but also an easy medium through which to make themselves prominent
before the public."

BEIJING (AP) - Yahoo Inc., Google Inc. and other
U.S. Internet companies under fire for assisting in China's censorship
efforts are insisting they must obey Beijing or risk limiting access to
their most promising market.
As the companies face congressional hearings in Washington
on Wednesday about their role in aiding the communist regime, they are
appealing to the U.S. government for help, saying no private business can
resist China on its own.
Yet analysts say that even if Washington stepped in to
enforce free-speech standards, perhaps by forcing U.S. companies to
withdraw their Internet services or equipment from China, the impact would
likely be blunted as entrepreneurs from China and other countries move in
to fill the void in the rapidly growing market.

BCRC Member Front & Center in D.C. Rally
against guest worker amnesty About 100 supporters of the Minuteman
Project rallied on the West Lawn of the Capitol yesterday morning,
imploring the government to tighten the nation's borders and reject
guest-worker legislation. The House last year passed a
border-enforcement bill that calls for, among other things, the
construction of 700 miles of fence along the U.S.-Mexico border and makes
it a felony to cross illegally. The Senate will debate its own version of
the bill in coming weeks. Beach Cities Republican Club member and
Minuteman supporter, Deborah Courtney is pictured on the right making her
case to one of a few counter protesters. Local Republican
Congressman Dana Rohrabacher from Huntington Beach joined Rep. Tom
Tancredo (R- Colo.) at the rally to speak in favor of tighter immigration
laws and border enforcement and against amnesty in the form of guest
worker programs.
