Michelle Obama's DNC Speech
A little while back I was researching Michelle Obama's speeches to the Council on Foreign Relations (now called Chicago Council on Global Affairs) and I thought she was hamming up a stammer she had for authenticity.
I can't find it right now but I'll dig around and if it turns up I'll post it below. I think she gave a great speech apart from lying that America isn't killing people around the world. If that's what American wants it will learn that you can't eat speeches. No matter how good they feel.
Noam Chomsky - Haiti, Honduras - History of US Rule in Latin America
Some people criticize Chomsky for not talking about 9/11 being an inside job. All I know is he taught me all I need to know about how power works and from there I figured out the rest. I don't mind if 9/11 isn't that important for him. I do mind that 5 1/2 million people died in the 2nd Congo War and I didn't know it was going on. I feel angry that I was only interested in my own fun to keep an eye on the largest amount of deaths since the second world war. And I consider myself informed and have been an information junky for decades now.
Did you know that Haiti was the crown jewel of the Caribbean before the US inflicted its revenge on the country for rebelling against slavery?
