rense.com/general64/prec.htm




*MOON HOAX*

Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon:
www.imdb.com/title/tt0277642/

snipurl.com/e85b

"...Federal authorities are looking into three closely bunched incidents in which people posing as inspectors were caught nosing around hospitals in Boston, Detroit and Los Angeles..."

(or, Feds are snooping in hospitals. When caught, other Feds 'look into' it.)




***MEDICARE***

New Federal Medicare policy limits access to claim hearings:
www.nytimes.com/2005/04/24/national/24medicare.html?

(the class warfare from the Bush regime is so brazen how does anyone doubt that we're on the verge of Nazi Germany?)

*CIVIL LIBERTIES*

Fascism: are we there yet?
www.prisonplanet.com/Pages/Apr_05/230405_fascism.html

"...Not only will Americans require passports to travel everywhere, but beginning in 2007 our passports will have Radio Frequency Identity (RFID) chips embedded inside them. Any RFID reader, not just those used by customs officials, can be used to find all the information contained on a passport. That means our personal information is not secure from identity thieves, kidnappers, terrorists, or nosy individuals. Why would an administration that claims to make us more secure actually make us less so?"

"The U.S. Secret Service is investigating whether a Republican volunteer committed the crime of impersonating a federal agent while forcibly removing three people from one of President Bush's public Social Security events, according to people familiar with the probe..."
