Looking into the future the Pelican feeding its young from a self-induced wound in its own breast (as depicted, mysteriously, on the state flag of Louisiana) is accepted as an appropriate symbol of both self-sacrifice and rebirth. Through his selfless efforts, man is raised from the slavery of ignorance to the condition of freedom conferred by wisdom. Given the current state of affairs in Louisiana, one hopes that the understanding of the Pelican as a symbol shall point the way towards a new consciousness of ourselves as a whole, and lead us to face our futures with strength, grace, wisdom and faith, to learn from our mistakes and carry our successes and zest for living to future generations.

Twelve Victim Voices of Katrina Speak Out Against Treason

The below was drafted by 12 Afro Americans trapped inside the New Orleans Superdome immediately after Hurricane Katrina slammed into the Big Easy on August 29,2005. These 6 women and these 6 men have a common thread. They all had one member of their family lynched by the Ku Klux Clan after the Civil War. They all had one member of their family shot by NOPD. And finally they all presently have one member of their family serving in the Halliburton Iraq oil war.

TREASON

1. A President who steals elections with the help of family members
2. A President whose Enron and Halliburton supporters steal billions of dollars from the pension fund of employees and our public treasury
3. A President whose environmental policies are permitting his corporate cronies to rape our national parks and heritage
4. A President who selects a Halliburton tool like Dick Cheney as 2nd in command
5. A President who surrounds himself with neo cons, perpetuating a 9-11 "new Pearl Harbor" to send our American boys to fight their New World Order oil wars for empire profit conquest
6. A President who subjects our troops to deadly radioactive depleted uranium and doesn't give a dam
7. A President who lies to Congress and the American people to invade oil rich Iraq
8. A President who refuses to acknowledge the Kyoto treaty, the Greenhouse effect and global warming, while pushing for more fossil fuels, more SUV's, while his oil company allies rip and tear the hearts out of the American consumer, while massive hurricanes boil and explode and ravage thru heated ocean waters, while Halliburton vampires stand ready to get all the "no bid"government contracts to rebuid poor and middle class houses in New Orleans and on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi, and the countries of Afghanistan and Iraq etc.etc..
9. A President who sits around for days while thousands of poor Afro American New Orleans blacks suffer and die. Treated worst than dogs.
10. A President whose Attorney General writes memos to encourage torture in violation of the Geneva Convention.
11. A President who is a member of a secret “Skull and Bones” society- so secret W cannot tell the American Public anything about it?
12. A President whose father George Herbert Walker “Poppy” Bush is also a member of this secret Skull and Bones Society
13. A President whose grandfather Senator Prescott Bush was also “Skull and Bones”. Granddaddy Prescott Bush funded Hitler, and that’s the truth. According to Mussolini, fascism is complete corporate control. Just what Bush-Clinton-Kerry and the NEW WORLD ORDER neo-cons want.
14. A President who has Donald Rumsfeld as head of the Dept. of Defense. How horrible is that? What more can we Afro Americans say... “Shock and Awe”? Massive murder. God Bless America?

Poppy was also a secret planner for the CIA Bay of Pigs invasion during the same time JFK was assassinated. Poppy was later appointed CIA director by Gerald Ford (a Warren Commission JFK assassination-FBI-CIA cover up specialist). While Poppy was CIA director, the House Senate Assassination committee investigations were being conducted. And it was during Poppy’s CIA directorship, countless witnesses were mysteriously murdered, right before their scheluded appearances to testify. Poppy later became Vice President after Reagan defeated Jimmy Carter, but not before CIA Poppy and CIA Ed Casey cut a deal called “October Surprise” to keep American hostages in Iran until after the election.

During this Reagan – Bush regime, “deregulation” became King and Corporations – Big Business began to rule. For example, the “fairness doctrine” was revoked. And today we have Fox and a right winged corporate controlled media airways with king spindocs such as Rush Limbaugh and clear channel spouting out Karl Rowe oysters..

The Savings and Loan- Bush family scandal depleted our national treasury. But most interesting is the Iran Contra affair. During this general period, Bill Clinton was Governor of Arkansas. And with his knowledge, tons of Cocaine was flown into Mena, Arkansas by Louisiana CIA pilot Barry Seal. Arms were then flown and unloaded into the waiting hands of the contras, waging a secret illegal war in Nicaragua. And with the able assistance of Lt. Oliver North, Ed Casey, and “Poppy” George Herbert Walker Bush, tons of cocaine was flown back into Rhodes Scholar - New World Order - pro NAFTA Governor Bill Clinton’s Mena, Arkansas airport.

Crack Cocaine then began to spread into our urban Afro American Communities. And poor blacks shot each other rather than wealthy CEO’s. Senator John Kerry headed the U.S. Senate committee to investigate, but the full truth remained hidden. You see blue blood John Kerry is also “Skull and Bones”.

It’s time to talk not about impeachment but TREASON!

A special Grand Jury should be convened against George W. Bush, George Herbert Walker Bush, Gerald Ford, Bill Clinton, and Senator John Kerry - Along with Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. And Oliver North and Gen Meyers. The truth of 911, JFK , Martin Luther King, and Robert Kennedy assasinations, Skull and Bones, Iran Contra cocaine traffic, Halliburton, October Surprise, and the ILLEGAL $ IMMORAL WAR CRIMES AGAINST AFGHANISTAN and IRAQ and our AMERICAN SOLDIERS should be made public. And the guilty parties should be tried for the Treasonable crimes they have committed against the people of the United States of America and the Constitution that they have sworn an oath to protect.

May Peace, Truth, Justice Prevail Over Lies, War, Violence

Mr. Smith states he is a Gulf War Veteran of Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm, and like 45,000 of his comrades, he has developed symptoms-in his case asthma and recurring pneumonia-linked to an affliction known as Gulf War syndrome. And like a growing number of Gulf War Veterans, he has fathered a child with devastating birth defects.
