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. (3-12-07).

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.

"Justice" Department Audit Claims FBI Abused USA "Patriot" Act March 9, 2006

Surprise, surprise.  A recent "Justice" Department audit found FBI goons have indeed violated privacy rights of innocent citizens using the USA "Patriot" Act.  ... Who'd a' 'thunk' it?  Where are congressional investigations of these abuses?  Where the hell are both Texas U.S. senators who support this outrageously unconstitutional law and have remained cowardly silent since findings of the audit were announced?



Eight U.S. Attorneys Fired March 6, 2007

Apparently, eight U.S. attorneys have been forced to resign, i.e. fired by the Bush "Administration."  ... Including one in New Mexico, allegedly for refusing to indict Democrats before the November election.  -- Another, for refusing to provide two Republican lawmakers with prosecutorial information.  Fascinating, isn't it?  Where are congressional investigations?


Scooter Libby Convicted March 6, 2007

Indicted former "Vice President" "Slick Dick" Cheney Chief of Staff Scooter Libby has been convicted of four of five counts, including obstruction of justice, lying to federal agents, and two counts of perjury in the Valerie Plame outing fiasco.  Tough, isn't it?  He plans to appeal.  Why has he not been remanded?

Worse, "Justice" Department prosecutors have to date given "Vice President" "Slick Dick" Cheney a free pass.  ... Despite allegations Mr. Cheney may indeed have been the prime mover behind the illegal outing of the identity of former CIA operative Valerie Plame.  -- Criminal disclosure of her identity in apparent retaliation for criticism of the Bush "Administration" by her husband, Joe Wilson.

Cheney, Rove, and Armitage have successfully escaped prosecution.  Be interesting to see if Libby sings like a canary, -- unless the "President" pardons him.  Regardless, ole' Scooter is a most convenient fall guy, apparently willing to fall on the sword for "Slick Dick," ole' George "The Tush," Karl Rove, and Richard Armitage.  The fix is certainly in, courtesy of the Bush "Administration's" outrageously corrupt and abusive "Justice" Department.  ... Ain't fascism grand?  Certainly, self-serving.

The jury took ten days to reach its decision.  Apparently, they were not happy Libby was scapegoated in an effort to protect higher-ups.  Democrats are afraid the "President" will quickly pardon Libby in an effort to protect Cheney, Rove, Armitage, and others.  Amusingly, Armitage even admitted he spoke to the media regarding Plame's identity.

While a presidential pardon is certainly legal and constitutional, it amounts to no more than legalized obstruction of justice, -- with profound consequences for future generations.  Sadly, the pardon of Richard Nixon by his successor Gerry Ford is directly responsible for Reagan and Bush escaping criminal responsibility for Iran-Contra.

The precedent was conveniently established for allowing outrageously corrupt and abusive presidents and their vice presidential side kicks to escape justice.  Precisely why the current occupant of the Oval Office, the most corrupt and abusive since Richard Nixon, has been allowed to operate with impunity with no investigations, criminal or congressional.

While the abuse of power and abrogation of civil and constitutional rights and liberties have been extensive as reported repeatedly in this publication, the deliberate outing of the identity of a CIA operative in retaliation for criticism from her husband is treason.  Yet, no one will apparently be prosecuted and/or impeached for the crime. Nazi America.



Despite Evidence To Contrary "President" Claims "Surge" May Be "Working" March 6, 2007

Never ever confront a fascist with the truth, it may hopelessly confuse him.  In a speech earlier today, "President" Bush claimed the "surge" in Iraq may be "working."  ... Despite the fact nine U.S. troops lost their lives yesterday and violent bombings continue relentlessly.



Texas House Passes Jessica's Act March 5, 2007

Indeed, there is apparently no limit to aggressive stupidity in the formerly great State of Texas.  The Texas House finally passed a version of Jessica's Act that provides a first offense penalty of 25 years in prison for sexual abuse of children.  For additional offenses, the perpetrator would be subject to life in prison without parole or the death penalty.

Sadly, the cowardly fascist element in the House did not carefully consider the profound ramifications of this outrageously unconstitutional and abusive bill.  First, most offenders are family members or friends.  No question, this will severely limit the willingness of victims to come forward and implicate loved ones.

... Loved ones who would be imprisoned for a considerable period of time or legally murdered by the state.  Consequently, reporting of this outrageous crime may precipitously drop.  Worse, the death penalty will ensure perpetrators will likely murder their victims, -- to eliminate the only witness to their appalling crimes. How does this serve children?  How?

Equally troubling to civil and constitutional rights and liberties, the death penalty would be applied to perpetrators who sexually abuse one child for thirty days or more, or who sexually abuse more than one kid for at least thirty days or more.  The victim would not be required to unequivocally state the exact time and date of each offense, -- just the fact the crimes occurred more than once over a thirty day period.  Convenient, isn't it?

This is outrageous kangaroo Nazi "justice" in our formerly great country.  Where is the due process and adherence to constitutional rights?  What happens when an aggrieved spouse falsely implicates the other?  As has happened thousands of times during divorce proceedings?  What better way to exquisitely screw the other parent?

Adding insult to injury, nearly all perpetrators of these heinous crimes have themselves been victimized as children.  Now, we will cowardly and conveniently kill them.  Nothing quite like "Christian" "charity" in Nazi America, is there?  -- Where the legislative bastards responsible for this atrocious legislation hypocritically and piously get down on bended knee each Sunday.
... After cowardly beating the shit out of their own children, -- pardon, "spanking" to be goddamned politically correct.

Why aren't these pathetically sad sick souls who sexually abuse children permanently incarcerated in mental institutions for the criminally insane?  ... Since there is no "cure," -- with absolutely no chance of getting out unless they are indeed proven not guilty by future evidence.  To do otherwise is barbaric.  To put them in prisons where they will be beaten and killed by other prisoners is equally barbaric.  To legally murder them by execution is especially barbaric.  Sadly, a true measure of exactly how far we've gone backwards as a formerly great country.  Nazi America, where day is night, night is day, and manure smells perversely sweet.



Military Cracking Down On Media Access To Troops March 1, 2007

In an apparent effort to quell increasing criticism of mistreatment of recovering troops at Walter Reed Medical Center housing facilities, the United States military is systematically denying reporters access to troops not only there, but elsewhere, including bases in San Antonio.  Why?  What are they afraid of?

If nothing to hide, why deny reporters access?  Apparently, the military and the outrageously corrupt and abusive Bush "Administration" have forgotten a free press is indeed guaranteed by the First Amendment.

Amusingly, the Fascist Right has championed "privatization" of government services.  Why?  Because they claim the private sector can do things more efficiently and at cheaper cost.  The Nazi Right, however, conveniently ignores outsourcing of military services to Halliburton and other contractors who have absolutely f--ked American taxpayers and short-changed troops.

Interestingly, IAP Worldwide Services is apparently directly responsible for the horrendous conditions wounded military personnel have been forced to live under at Walter Reed.  Where were the generals?  Why weren't they touring these facilities, unannounced at any time of the day or night?  Don't they give a damn about their troops?  Where were our lawmakers?
... Amusingly, IAP is the same corporation that bungled ice deliveries after Katrina.  Then again, we do get exactly what we deserve, don't we?



Bush "Administration" Likely Indirectly Funding Al Qaeda  February 26, 2007

Billions and billions of U.S. dollars have not been accounted for in Iraq.  New Yorker Magazine reporter Seymour Hirsh in a recent article and during a CNN interview with Wolf Blitzer on February 25 claimed the Bush "Administration" may be funding terrorist groups in Iraq and elsewhere fighting Shiites.

... Seems the "President" has decided Shiite Iran is an imminent threat to U.S. "national security" and must be countered no matter the cost.  -- Even if such funding reaches Sunni al Qaeda operatives.  Fascinating, isn't it?

To date, however, no congressional investigation has been launched.  Why?  Billions have gone unaccounted, yet both parties in Congress apparently have no appetite to investigate our outrageously corrupt and abusive "Commander In Chief" and his henchmen.  Again, why?  Why are we protecting and coddling presidents who have become a law unto themselves?



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
