Publisher's Note: This publication receives no financial support through advertising.  Although shaken down, looted, and abused by corrupt government, area businesses remain unwilling to stand up.  Locals are too gutless to donate financially, cowardly fearing retribution.  For this publication to survive, national readers need to contribute.  Liberty In Peril is, has been, and will always remain beholden to NO ONE. -- Precisely why there is no financial assistance.  ... From day of launch and certainly a no-brainer to this very day, firmly resolved to walk away first rather than compromise principle. -- To the chagrin of many and delight of few.    T.C. (2-20-06).

Working definition of fascism for new readers? An abusive and dangerous oligarchy based on a pernicious blend of government, big business, and religion. ... A boot-heel cynically placed on the throat of the masses, justified in principle by perversion and bastardization of religion.

Feingold Caves On "Patriot" Act February 15, 2006

Last Senate holdout Sen. Russ Feingold finally capitulated and cowardly ended his struggle to block renewal of the USA "Patriot" Act.  Feingold had been leading an effort to slow down action on the renewal by using parliamentary procedures and Senate rules.  Once Republican fascists threatened to keep the Senate in session overnight, Feingold relented.  Every damned one of these Republican and Democratic fascist bastards responsible should not be returned to office.



Cheney Speaks February 15, 2006

Breaking his silence after enormous political pressure, "Vice President" "Slick Dick" Cheney sat down for an interview with FOX's Brit Hume.  Subject?  The Whittington shooting on Saturday.  Mr. Cheney refused to hold a press conference, gutlessly choosing instead to talk to a Right Wing "conservative" on a network that is clearly in the pocket of the "Administration."  ... "Fair & Balanced," that is, Right Wing and hopelessly fascist.

Questions remain unanswered.  Cheney continues to stonewall the failure to disclose the incident nearly a day.  His sophomoric attempt to blame the resulting controversy on the national supposedly "liberal" media rang hollow and was truly pitiful.  Unbecoming a high political figure.

-- While ole' "Slick Dick" might have been reluctant to disclose the shooting to The New York Times, he certainly could have released information to The Washington Times.  ...  A fascist rag, also in the pocket of the Bush "Administration."  He chose instead to have the ranch owner disclose it to a local Corpus Christi newspaper.  Why?

Cheney's penchant for secrecy has been no secret for many, many years.  Going back at least to the days some thirty years ago when he counseled President Ford to veto The Freedom of Information Act.  ... What fascist doesn't crave secrecy and the cover it provides the corrupt and abusive?



Whittington Suffers Heart Attack February 14, 2006

"Accidentally" shot by "Vice President" "Slick Dick" Cheney on Saturday afternoon during a hunting trip in South Texas, Austin attorney Harry Whittington suffered a heart attack when a shot-gun pellet moved from his chest into his heart.  He was moved back into the intensive care unit.

"Slick Dick" Cheney continues to refuse to make any public appearances to explain what happened.  In addition, Scott McClellan, "Presidential" Press Secretary, has not been forthcoming and under constant barrage by the press corps.

Outrageously, ole' Scott conveniently neglected to inform reporters Whittington had indeed suffered a heart attack, having been made aware of the fact before the daily press briefing.
... Nothing quite like transparent government, is there?



Israel & U.S. Undermine Palestinian Election Results February 13, 2006

Ole' George "The Tush" Bush indeed loves democracy, -- as long as he gets the results he wants.  Palestinian voters, in an extremely clean non-violent election recently voted Hamas into power in the Palestinian Parliament.  Sadly, Hamas is a terrorist organization that has been fought for years by the Israelis and has been condemned by the U.S. for its use of terror.

Now in power, Israel and the United States government are working to undermine it by considering ways to remove all funding from the Palestinians, -- in an effort to get them to return to the former corrupt government, which at least was non-terrorist.  ... What webs we weave, no?

The Palestinians chose Hamas in a free election.  Israel and the United States do not accept the results.  Democracy is apparently only good when it works to the benefit of Israeli and American policy.  If not, the government must be overthrown, no matter the tactics.  War, if necessary,  as in Iraq.  Financial undermining, as in Palestine, if not.  The ends clearly justify the means to the fascist currently occupying the Oval Office, as well as the Israelis.  Nothing quite like hypocrisy, is there?



"Vice President" Shoots Fellow Hunter  February 13, 2006

What better way to leave the stress and strains of Washington behind, as well as the political scandals and controversies, than to take a junket to South Texas and the Armstrong Ranch to do a little quail hunting with the rich and famous?  -- A well-deserved Shangri-La of rest and relaxation "Vice President" "Slick Dick" Cheney must certainly have looked forward to late last week.

Not to be, however.  Seems Mr. Cheney inadvertently pumped .28 gage bird shot into the face, neck, and chest of prominent Austin attorney Harry Whittington, 78.  ... Tough, isn't it?  Especially, when the news is kept from the media for nearly 24 hours.  Even the "President" wasn't informed for several hours after the "accident."

-- Whatever the hell happened to transparency and, more importantly, hunter safety?  Both men are elderly well-experienced hunters who know better.  Hunting instructors claim a bird hunter must always put skyline between the quarry and the ground.  -- To prevent killing hunting dogs and people.  Regardless, the shooter is always responsible for an accidental shooting.  Never the victim.  The hunter has to be aware of his target and what's around it.

Reports at the time of this writing are sketchy and contradictory.  Seems Secret Service agents initially denied the local sheriff's department access to the "Vice President" after the "accident."
... According to an earlier report from the Kenedy County Sheriff's Department.  Reportedly, the "President" apparently agrees what the Secret Service did to shield the "VP" from police was indeed proper.

Have Cheney and Bush forgotten we have no king or emperor?  That no one is above the law?  Not even the "Chief Executive" and his sidekick?  Contradicting early media accounts and claims of the Sheriff's Department, however, the Secret Service now claims an interview with a sheriff's deputy was indeed arranged Sunday morning.  -- The day after the "accident."

Think any sheriff's department would similarly afford any of you the same treatment?  The Kenedy County Sheriff's Department again now confirms there was indeed a meeting with the "Vice President", -- the next morning.  ... Apparently, all parties involved, including the Secret Service and local police, had to get their stories straight.

Mr. Whittington is reportedly in stable condition, was in the intensive care unit at the hospital, and has now been moved to a private room.  ... A good Republican, he promises to give no public interviews to spare the "Vice President" any embarrassment.  -- Thoughtful, isn't he?  Both he and ole' "Slick Dick" will receive non-punitive "citations" for their failure to have the proper "bird stamp" for their quarry.

... More to come as details become available.



ACLU-Criminal Website Deletions

The following is a series of unedited email correspondence between the American Civil Liberties Union and this writer in regard to criminal deletions of Ledger websites over a year ago.  To date, no response, other than a canned autosponder message has been received from national ACLU headquarters to the latest complaint filed.  Apparently, ACLU no longer has any interest in First Amendment issues, -- or is wildly incompetent.  You decide.  ACLU-Criminal Website Deletions
