New and Improved Comments

We are launching a major overhaul of our comments section.

In addition to more robust spam filtering and moderation, new features include the ability to rate other comments, sort how they are displayed and respond directly via e-mail or in a thread.

Unfortunately, commenters will lose their existing Truthdig identities. It's a pain, we know, but on the plus side you will now be able to log in with a plethora of options, including Google, Twitter, Facebook and Disqus accounts.

Before launching this system we spent months in discussion with our top commenters. We listened to the feedback and we hope you like what we've come up with.

Please direct any problems or concerns to us via our contact page.

She is being promoted in the “political agenda” which is criminal in the USA cuz she KNEW how to “call” to find out how to “rule”; in the Mahr vs Ashcroft: Canadian citizen touched US soil to shortly board another leaving same day; detained, lawyer called at OFFICE 9pm on a Sunday; they REFUSED to call her home, or cell; confirmed with Syria that THEY would detain & torture him, and told him as they were putting him aboard a plane to Syria that was where he was being sent;
When finally freed, he RIGHTFULLY sued as “federal conspiracy”: Sotomayer appearing via “satelite” stated that with each administration “new rules and regulations” LAWS folks: are written; they needed to CALL to find out “how they (Congress) wanted them to “rule”;
Eric Holder, you will recall, the NEW AG, ASKED the JUDGES how “he was supposed” to do his job: as AG of the USA;
Justice left the USA long ago; don’t know why they haven’t removed THAT from the “pledge” of alligence: and they should make it QUITE clear that the red white & blue is a symbol of tyranny, bullying, extortion, criminal activity; where “keeping it all at the top” is SLAVERY.
FAIR trade benefits the PEOPLE and the ENVIRONMENT.
FREE “trade” does neither; and the “free dom” in the USA is SLAVERY:
CHANGING oaths of office as they didn’t bother honoring those any more than they did the laws: of Congress, USA, & International: now it is simply: I will execute the office of: whatever: and of course, they CHANGE those at will as well; even BACK dating them as they did the “Colombia” trade agreement: after EXPLOITING: which means targeting & harming for PERSONAL benefit & gain: targeting & murdering in cold blood the folks trying to form unions to get decent wage benefits; no surprise it led right back to Capitol Hill in Wash DC. After all “this” is the way “democracy” works;
The WHOLE thing is theatricals & charades: not 1 single Gov agency is doing the job it’s being paid the “big bucks” for the “trickle down” effect it is supposed to be doing; http://www.publicintegrity.org;
It is a highly organized for years criminally run Gov; with corrupt cops & Pentagon pirates; & judges more criminal than any appearing before them; THIS is the “free dom” they are agressively trying to force on every other nation.
