Editor’s Comments - http://tvnewslies.org/blog

TVNL Editor's Comments: When peace groups become the enemy of the sate what does that tell you about the state? It seems to me that there is no doubt that our nation is securely in the hands of the military industrial complex. These people thrive on war, conflict & fear. People of peace are a threat to their agenda of greed.

When peace becomes a bad word and when intellectual thinkers are ridiculed by our leaders and their supporters, radical change is in order. Evil is wining the battle for control of United States and it a home grown evil, not the kind of evil our unquestioning radical American flag wavers have been tricked into believing. It’s time for change. Radical change; before it is too late! Think about it!– Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

QUESTION: Have you forwarded this e-mail to anyone today? Consider doing so for you will be helping to inform the people of this nation about the vital issues that are hidden from them by our corporate media. Make this nation a better place, educate, inform and enlighten your fellow citizens!

If you believe that the American corporate media are our greatest enemy let the people know how you feel.

· Schools get Homeland Security funds for surveillance equipment - School properties in Guilford, Dover-Foxcroft, Milo and Greenville will be a lot more secure in the near future, thanks to a Homeland Security grant.
TVNL Comment: Can you say "police state?"

MILITARY & VETERANS : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#military

· The Stress of Guarding the Couch - Reservists and soldiers in the Guard, who constantly toggle between the civilian and military worlds, seem to have the hardest transition.
TVNL Comment: Yet the US has no problem watchung our dedicated members of the military suffer with emotional stress. We have no problem uttering the phrase "homeless veteran!" We don't blink an eye when were hear about a VA hospital closing. Is this supporting the troops? There is more to supporting the troops than wearing a yellow ribbon.

· A hero scorned - What Thompson really deserved, and never got, is the hero's recognition afforded other national icons of moral courage, such as Rosa Parks. Not so much for his benefit as for the nation's. The mob mentality that took over at My Lai was an extreme manifestation of a common human instinct. It's just easier to go along with the crowd, rationalizing corrupt behavior, than it is to face the danger of stopping it. That was true at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison and at corrupt Enron.
