Guest guest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 I want the mayor of Salt Lake City to be the next president. Below is an exerpt to a recent speech he gave. URL at end to full text of the speech. Alobar No more lies, no more hiding of the truth — we can stand the truth — no more wars that more than triple the value of stock in Dick Cheney's prior employer, Halliburton — and which, as of last September, has increased the value of the Halliburton CEO's stock by $78 million. We are patriots. We are deeply concerned. And we demand change, now. I want to hear from you. No more lies from Condoleezza Rice about whether she and President Bush were advised before 9/11 of the possibility of planes being flown into buildings by terrorists. No more. No more gross incompetence in the office of the Secretary of Defense. No more torture of human beings. No more disregard of the basic human rights enshrined in the Geneva Convention. No more kidnapping of people and sending them off to secret prisons in nations where they will be tortured. No more unconstitutional wiretapping of Americans. No more proposed amendments to the United States Constitution that would, for the first time in our nation's history, limit fundamental rights and liberties for entire classes of people simply on the basis of sexual orientation. No more federal land giveaways to developers. No more increases in mercury emissions from old, dirty, dangerous coalburning power plants. No more backroom deals that deprive protection for millions of acres of wild lands in our nation. No more attacks on immigrants who work so hard to build better lives in this nation. No more inaction by Congress on fixing our hypocritical and inconsistent immigration laws and practices. No more reliance on fiction rather than the science of global warming. No more manipulation of our media with false propaganda. No more disastrous cuts in funding for those most in need. No more federal cuts in community policing and local law enforcement grant programs for our cities. No more inaction on stopping the tragic genocide in the Darfur region of Sudan. No more of the Patriot Act. No more killing. No more supposedly pre-emptive wars. No more contempt for our long-time allies around the world. No more dependence on foreign oil. No more failure to impose increased fuel efficiency standards for automobiles manufactured in this country. No more energy policies developed in secret meetings between Dick Cheney and his energy company cronies. No more excuses for failing to aggressively cut global warming pollutant emissions. No more tragically incompetent federal responses to natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina. No more tax cuts for the wealthiest, while the middle class and those who are economically-disadvantaged continue to struggle more and more each year. No more reckless spending and massive tax cuts, resulting in historic deficits and historic accumulated national debt. No more purchasing of elections by the wealthiest corporations and individuals in our country. No more phony, ineffective, inhumane so-called war on drugs. No more failure to pass an increase in the minimum wage. No more silence by the American people. http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/cgi-bin/blogs/voices.php/2006/09/07/p10597 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
