1 year ago, peter pan, was banned from DailyKos after this blog:
Chevron was a greedy destructive corporation then, and it is now.
I have done 3 diaries the last 3 days with a Boycott Chevron Poll.
Each one had 85%+ Yes, Boycott Chevron.
But the question was been asked before by peter pan. keep reading please...
"we are conservatives, and liberals"
...
"We are not corporate titans,
we are human beings doing our share to..."
hah! they conserve nothing and are liberal killers.
Chevron is the world's 14th largest corporation.
He is poorly clothed, but speaks English that is somewhat understandable. "Please don't believe what the junta says," he whispers. "The repression is continuing every night. When there are no more witnesses, they drive through the suburbs at night and kill the people."
for those who sponser kos and dont see the Chevron blood money banner ad, it says:
Oil, natural gas and coal have been the energy workhorses for the last 100 years. To meet the world’s future demand, we have to expand these old sources and begin making the new ones viable. By working together, we can prepare for this next era of energy. www.willyoujoinus.com
do not join them, they are allied with the junta in burma and steal iraqi oil. (and earth is melting fast fast).

Thousands of protesters are dead and the bodies of hundreds of executed monks have been dumped in the jungle, a former intelligence officer for Burma's ruling junta has revealed.
The most senior official to defect so far, Hla Win, said: "Many more people have been killed in recent days than you've heard about. The bodies can be counted in several thousand."
Mr Win, who spoke out as a Swedish diplomat predicted that the revolt has failed, said he fled when he was ordered to take part in a massacre of holy men. He has now reached the border with Thailand. ...
In the New Hampshile debate 9/26 on MSNBC, John Edwards answered under the 10 second rule:
It appears many times in the Bible, "what you do to the least of those, you do unto me."
It appears at about 7:30 in the above video.
Now this happens to be my favorite Bible quote. It is the radical Jesus. It is called The Final Judgment or The Sheep and the Goats.
Matthew 25:
The Final Judgment
... 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, [6] you did it to me.’

Chevron
Since its 2005 takeover of Unocal, US oil giant Chevron has been one of the joint venture partners developing the Yadana offshore gas field in Burma, which earns the military regime millions of dollars. Chevron also owns Texaco.
In response to calls from Burma’s democracy movement, the Burma Campaign UK and other campaign groups around the world have been pressuring companies to sever business ties with Burma.
Please contact one or more of the companies on the Dirty List and ask them to cut their ties with Burma’s military government. If appropriate, tell them you will not purchase their products as long as they continue to support the regime in Burma.

"There isn’t one iota’s difference between the plans put forward by Senator Clinton, Senator Obama, and former Senator Edwards because they all keep the for-profit health insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies in control of the health care system," Kucinich said. "The only thing ‘universal’ about their plans is that they universally fail to address the real reason 47 million Americans are uninsured and another 50 million are under-insured: for-profit insurance companies get rich by gouging people and by not paying for health care."
The debate here on Kerry blows me away.
There are people on dailykos who stand up for the police, right or wrong.
"You will take my question because I have been listening to your crap for two hours," Meyer told Kerry, according to the police report of the incident.
He then turned to a woman and said "Are you taping this? Do you have this? You ready?" the report said.
Clarissa Jessup, who contributed I-Report video of the incident to CNN, said Meyer gave her his camera and asked her to shoot video of him posing his questions to Kerry.
Organizers had cut off questioning before Meyer went to the microphone, she said. Watch Jessup describe the incident Video
Meyer asked Kerry why he did not contest his loss to President Bush in the pivotal state of Ohio over allegations that African-American voters were disenfranchised.
Meyer also questioned Kerry about why he did not support impeaching Bush and whether he belonged to the Yale University secret society Skull and Bones, as Bush did.
One of the police officers on the scene observed that Meyer was "yelling as loud as he could as to sensationalize his presence," according to the police report.
Kerry clearly calls on the kid 8 seconds in to the video. The student talks about Greg Palsats book, Armed Mad House, which Kerry says he read.
The Student asks 3 quick questions.
"How can you concede the 2004 elections on the day of the election?" ...
"If you were so against iran, lets impeach bush now. why dont you impeach bush?" ...
"Are you, were you a memeber of skull and bones in college?"
Right after this question, 90 seconds after the kid starts talking, the cops grab him. The student asks a 4th question.
"Help, Help! What did i do?". Will Kerry answer all 4 questions?
An overwhelming majority (73%) of Americans want U.S. troops home in a year, the poll found.
This is the first poll that asked voters to choose between President Bush's funding request of $200 billion and other funding options.
The single largest group - 40% - want Bush to bring U.S. troops home within 6 months using funds Congress has already given him for Iraq, which now totals $450 billion. That is the position advocated by Democratic Presidential candidate Rep. Dennis Kucinich.
Another 14% would give President Bush $50 billion more to bring our troops home within 6 months.Another 19% would give President Bush $200 billion more - the amount he requested - but would require a deadline to bring U.S. troops safely home within a year.
Just one in eight Americans (13%) support the Republican position of giving Bush a $200 billion check without any deadline.
40%+14%+19%=73% want U.S. troops home in a year
The workers in Iraq do not want Iraq's oil privatized.
Petro Showdown -Thursday, Sep. 06, 2007 By VIVIENNE WALT
...Oil Minister Hussein al-Shahristani promised U.S. officials that the law would be in place by the end of May. But months later, that confidence--and the deadline--has evaporated. Fierce arguments have raged over how much control Baghdad and the Iraq National Oil Co. should have over production. Oil workers' unions argue that the law gives Big Oil huge profits while potentially undercutting the interests of Iraqis. The major union staged a demonstration in July in Basra, calling for the law to be killed. Union leaders will convene a conference in Basra in early September to draft alternatives to privatizing the industry.

Colonel Is Acquitted in Abu Ghraib Abuse Case
Published: August 29, 2007A military jury acquitted an Army officer on Tuesday of charges that he failed to properly train and supervise enlisted soldiers involved in detainee interrogations in 2003 at Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq, where prisoners were subjected to brutal treatment.
In the court-martial at Fort Meade, Md., the jury of nine Army colonels and a brigadier general found the officer, Lt. Col. Steven L. Jordan, guilty of only one lesser offense, that of disobeying an order to refrain from discussing the case.
Colonel Jordan, 51, was the only officer to stand trial on charges related to the detainee-abuse scandal at Abu Ghraib,
Often here at dailykos, there is a disconnect between the terror wars, and oil. So I went back in time for a reminder.
From before Dennis decided to run for president:
Obviously Oil
By Rep. Dennis Kucinich, AlterNet. Posted March 11, 2003.
Too hot for D.C.: Shut out by the Washington Post, Congressman Kucinich argues here that invading the world's #2 oil country has to do with, yes, oil.
Editor's Note: Although Dennis Kucinich was aggressively attacked by Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen for suggesting that the preemptive strike on Iraq was based on oil, the Post refused to print the presidential candidate and Ohio Democrat's response. This was especially frustrating, since the Post editorial stance and balance of editorial page columns have been decidedly pro-war. You can tell the Post how you feel about this ommission at ombudsman@washpost.com.
Happy Martin Luther King Day!
Take Action and come by the tree sit at the Oak Grove in front of Memorial Stadium UC Berkeley on Olmsted designed Piedmont Ave.
Watch Running Wolf predict the raid:
Police officer in a tie explains "We are just trying to restore the area to it's natural state"
Strawberry Creek used to run with falls in a canyon, but the University filled it in and built Memorial stadium over it. Will the cops tear down the stadium to restore the area to its natural state?
Oak-tree activists' encampment cleared away by UC campus police
Carolyn Jones, Chronicle Staff Writer
Saturday, January 13, 2007
Using front-loaders and a flatbed truck, UC Berkeley police staged a predawn raid Friday to clear an encampment next to Memorial Stadium pitched by oak tree activists.
Police arrived about 6 a.m. to roust the protesters, who have been camped in the oak grove since Dec. 2 providing support for demonstrators sitting in the trees. The tree-sitters, now numbering six, were not removed and pledged to remain.
UC Berkeley want to cut down some 200 year old coastal oak trees in order to win a national championship in football. Supporters of killing these trees believe a better football team will attract better students. (congrats to MITs football team in winning a game this season against framingham state 21-14).
Hopefully UCal will win before the low lands of Berkeley flood. (will Markos' new home be beach front?)
MAMMOTH LAKES, Calif. — The effects of global warming are being felt around the world and unless international efforts are launched within the next 10 years, species will disappear and the Earth will be a vastly less habitable planet by the end of the century, according to NASA scientist James E. Hansen.
"Global warming is already starting, and there's going to be more of it. I think there is still time to deal with global warming, but we need to act soon. Humans now control global climate, for better or worse," Hansen said Tuesday at an annual gathering of meteorologists.
