TVNL Editor's Comments: So an American can get handcuffed and detain for speaking. This is the America Bush supporters have helped to create. How do they fool themselves into thinking this most anti-democracy regime is good for America or good for anything? I wonder how supportive they would feel had a Democrat banished them to special free speech zones; little roped off areas of the nation where people are allowed to be free? Democracy in America? Can somebody please ask these Bush supporters to show me the democracy; or at least tell me what they think democracy is?

By the way, did you notice that there is a direct correlation between actual news getting reported, which has been the case with the hurricane, and Bush’s approval ratings dropping? Think about it! – Jesse, Editor, TvNewsLIES.org

SPECIAL NOTE 9/11: For those of you who would like to meet me: I will be attending several events on 9/11 in New York. I will be at ground zero at approximately 8:30 AM handing out free “Confronting the Evidence” DVDs. Dylan Avery, writer and director of the DVD Loose Change, is also planning meeting me at ground zero, although I am not sure what time he will be there. If I have definitive information regarding my agenda for the day I will post it on my blog.

SPECIAL NOTE TO OUR FRIENDS DOWN SOUTH: My thoughts are with all the victims of Katrina. I wish you all a peaceful resolution to your trying situation.

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.

POLITICS : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news#politics

· Katrina rips Bush a new one - All the elements that George W. Bush and Karl Rove had exploited for political gain — a timid and kowtowing mainstream media, a deafening silence about America’s growing underclass, the fear that criticizing the White House in the era of Al Qaeda was tantamount to treason, and Bush’s can-do, cowboy image — were shattered by the same winds and rains that savaged casinos in Biloxi and homes in Jefferson Parish.

· "Smoking gun" documents nail FEMA, Chertoff, and Bush - He's just posted a letter to Secretary Chertoff from Ranking Member Waxman and Chairman Davis which describes documents from the Department of Homeland Security that show that FEMA was aware in 2004 that a "catastrophic hurricane" could hit New Orleans and "trap hundreds of thousands of people in flooded areas and leave up to one million people homeless."

DOMESTIC : http://www.tvnewslies.org/news/#domestic

· Physician who told Cheney to go F*ck Himself Lost his Home in Katrina, Detained, Cuffed by Cheney's M-16-carrying Goons - So let’s get this straight: A physician with a newborn baby loses most everything he owns in the hurricane, does what most of us WANT to do and “echoes” Cheney’s words he spoke on the Senate floor last year, walks away harmlessly, mission accomplished, and then once the media cameras leave, he is treated like a foreign terrorist as Cheney’s goons waving M-16s handcuff him in front of his destroyed home? Had it not been for the media cameras filming the initial scene, I doubt Cheney’s goons would have just let Marble go after 20 minutes.
