    An exerpt from Wikipedia:
    "Under United States law (Section 501 of the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948), the Voice of America is forbidden to broadcast directly to American citizens. The original intent of this section of the legislation was to protect the American public from propaganda actions by its own government.

    Although VOA does not broadcast domestically, Americans can access the programs through shortwave and streaming audio over the Internet."

    Google has been using VOA articles HEAVILY, for some time now, in its news section. I contend that GOOGLE is "broadcasting" to Americans FOR VOA.

    They do LOVE their "state-corporate partnerships".

    It was a pleasure meeting you at the conference. Typical long winded Vulcan that I am I didn't bother to ask about your background. Thanks for listening to me and from now on you are DR. Farsetta to me. "Oh yeah, I hung out with the coolest people at the conference. Ph.D's, rock stars, journalists and aliens." Watching the video of Bill Moyer's respond to the Bill O'Rielly's producer was one of the most amazing clips from the conference. And by the way, I'm really looking forward to getting some of that juicy George Soros money, I still haven't gotten my check, have you? LLAP to you and all the folks at CMD Spocko.

You never know a senior citizen might have the momentum to smoke the competition between the two; Try to check it out, what you think after you heard their speeches.

    The so called energy crisis is a direct result of all the government’s total incompetence to come to the realization that the Kyoto Accord is a complete hoax. Despite the overwhelming amount of scientific information and analysis which has been produced since late 2006 and the fact that over 31 000 American degreed scientists, including 9 000 PhDs, signed the Oregon petition as “skeptics” in 2008, public officials still bury their heads in the sand because they can not admit they made a mistake. How a group of 2 500 mainly third world politicians with their begging bowls fully extended, a group of computer programmers and a handful of scientists many of whom do not agree with the IPCC’s report’s conclusions, but have been gagged, can be termed a “consensus” of scientific opinion is beyond all reason. The IPCC 4th. Report has a vast amount of accurate data extracted from a library of diligently reviewed papers, however the link between this information and anthropogenic emissions is totally unproven. Unfortunately the limited data which is used by the IPCC to forge that link has been proven to be substantially flawed. Due to the impending “cap and trade” proposals similar to the dismal failure currently in force in Europe, the oil companies have drastically reduced their commitment to increase further oil supplies since they are being targeted for punitive taxes thus creating an unfavorable long term investment climate which is understandable. The actual production cost of oil is in the region of $25 to $30 a barrel so a price of $80 which includes all the taxes is very acceptable. To get back to this level, the oil companies need the assurance they are not going to be ambushed down the road. It is the governments waffling and uncertainty which has caused this problem not the oil companies.

    As the name suggests clearly a cartoon character. So now must we assume that democracy, free speach and any dissenting opinion is a crime in this brave new world. If you have a dissenting opinion please present it logically with reason and facts.
