THE  COST  CLOCK  FOR  THE  IRAQ  WAR

                                   See   how  much   YOU,  the   American   taxpayers,   are   paying  the  Bush   Administration   for   this 
                                       unjustified   military   invasion    AND   occupation   of   Iraq.    Now  they want a war with Iran too?!
               The question is NOT  IF or when the USA wins,  but   CAN  WE  AFFORD  IT  WITH  MONEY  AND  HUMAN  LIVES???

Here  are  four quotes  from  Henry  Kissinger  that  are  posted  on  Wikipedia   [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_A._Kissinger ]  page 12:
            "Miltary men are just dumb stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy."       [ Listen to my  audio  skit, "Disposal Tools", ABOVE ]
            "
Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac."                                                                                                      
            "The illegal we do immediately.   The unconstitutional takes a little longer."
            "I don't see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist because of the irresponsibility of its own people."

           *  This last statement is what  some corrupt politicians, beholden to the war profiteers, use to justify military invasions.
                If I don't like what's going on in your country or nation, I  have the  right  to  invade it and set up puppet politicians and
                big businesses so I  can reap enormous business profits...forget about international laws and the UN.
                There's billions of dollars to be made,  I  can't worry about  rain forests, primitive cultures, and  3rd world peasants.
 

                   Presidents  George H.W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Bill Clinton,
                          and George W. Bush...what do they all have in common?
                            They're all members of the Bohemian Grove Club.

                                              To:
info [@]  bradleyphoenix.com    

                                        Hi  there  Bradley -  I'm  Dani Cutler  and   I  run  the  Audio  Addicts  blog 
                                                          that  Jack  Ward  was  writing  about.
             Not only do I  blog  about  all  things audio, I also host my own political  podcast, called Truth Seekers.
                                       
                                              http://www.truthseekerscast.com

               I  listened to  a  few  of  your skits- and  I  would  LOVE  LOVE  LOVE  to  play  them
            on my show occasionally.      They  are  fantastic!      (As I  all  ready  knew  they  would
            be since I've heard your work before).      Would  that  be  all  right  with  you?
            You of course would get full credits and linkage on the show notes.   
            In  my   last episode  I  played a 10 min. skit covering all the democratic nominees,
            written by  a  friend  of  mine  in  England- it  was  hilarious!     Politics  are  hard...
            I  try  to  keep  it  as  entertaining  as  possible  while  still  getting  my  message  across.


             Anyway,  I  figured  I  would ask your permission and not just  play  them,  but  I  do hope you say yes!    
           I  will  also  get  a  post  about  these  wonderful  skits up  on  the Audio  blog  very  soon!


            Take  care,  and  keep  the  great  skits  coming!
          Dani

                                                        RESPONSE   from   Bradley  Thunderbird  Phoenix  to  Dani  Cutler:   
                    "Dani  Cutler,  you  have my permission  to air  my  anti-war  audio skits on your website  or on the radio airwaves."

THOUSANDS  OF  IRAQIS   &   AMERICAN  G.I.s  ARE  DYING!          PRESIDENT  BUSH,  WE  CAN'T  AFFORD  YOUR  WAR  IN  IRAQ!

A   war  with   Iran  would   be   worse!     The  Iranians would  know  all the mistakes  made  in  Iraq  by the U.S. military.    How many more billions for Irans?!

What  really   happened  on  the  New  Pearl  Harbor  terrorist  attacks  of   9-11?

United Flight 93 crashed into a forest and there's no blood, bones, human hair, luggage, or fuselage from the jet.

The two World Trade Center Towers and building # 7 collapsed...but no plane hit building #7, why did it just collapse???

The hole in the Pentagon is about the same dimensions as the cruise missile that hit Milosevic's building in Yugoslavia.

Marvin Bush headed security at the World Trade Center until September 10, 2001.   Marvin is related to George W. Bush.

                                                                             THE   SO-CALLED  WAR  ON  TERROR         

"It's not a War  on  Terror,  that's  a  misnomer.    The  Hollywood Entertainment Industry tries to inspire TERROR with horror films.   
The correct term is either the  War on Terrorists   or  The  War  on Terrorism.

Patriotism   also  means  resisting  the  rise  of  fascism,  totalitarianism,  and  plutocracy   in  one's  country / nation.    Saddam  Hussein  

was  hanged   for  crimes against humanity.    Maybe  one  day  some  politicians from the USA will  be executed  for  crimes against 

humanity also,  for  any  of   the  following:

Sending  military  and  civilian personnel  to  their deaths  just  to  make  billions of  dollars  in   WAR  PROFITS.    

Lying  to  Congress and the American people about WMD  to invade Iraq resulting in thousands of civilian deaths and American G.I.s.

Like having a Vice President who is the "former CEO" of Halliburton, a corporation with billion dollar government contracts in Iraq.   

For securing one of the richest oil resources in the world:   Iraq.    With a background in Texas oil.    Innocent blood shed for  oil profits!

Condoleezza  Rice was a member of the board of directors for the Chevron   [Oil]  Corporation with an oil tanker named after her".

                                               AGITATE   FOR   JUSTICE         by     B .T.  Firebird

  Wait  a  minute!   Wait  a  minute!!     Just because you ask God to fill you with His love  DOES  NOT  mean that  you
  can't  agitate for  JUSTICE  and  for morality!    You don't  stop fighting the corruption of city hall  just because  you're
  not  supposed to  HATE  politically corrupt  politicians.    You don't stop fighting against police brutality just because
  you're not supposed to hate  bad cops.    Continue to agitate for justice  and  challenge  political  corruption.   That's
  our  duty as  God's servants   AND  citizens of  ANY country or nation.   We  don't stop fighting for human rights!     
  We  don't  stop fighting for true justice  not the "justice"  and  so-called "democracy" that comes from the White House.  
  The  president  of the United States of America  is a  Christian,  he  goes to prayer breakfasts a lot  and  he  quotes the Bible.
  YEAH, RIGHT!     Politicians  are  not  gods!    Watch  them!   Make them accountable for how our taxes are spent!
  We're the richest country in the world with homeless people, poverty, high unemployment, and a lousy healthcare system.

                     PLEASE    SEE     MICHAEL  MOORE'S   DOCUMENTARY  FILM:    "SICKO"

  Why can't we be like Canada's  health care system?     Fight for justice!    Here in America, we have the insurance gangsters,
  the banking gangsters, the medical gangsters, and the politician gangsters who make a "killing" on American invasions and
  starting "New Vietnams".   Did you ever wonder why the U.S. sent troops to Vietnam?    I asked a vet of Vietnam who is
  opposed to the war in Iraq  (so am I), why was the U.S. involved in Vietnam?    He gave me a surprising answer.   I  never
  thought he would say this.    I couldn't believe my ears.   I  said I would  do some research  on his answer, but it shocked me.     
  He said:   "We  were  in Vietnam  for  their oil."      That  answer  scares  me!    So do the oil vampires in Bush's administration.
  Conservative   OR  Liberal...people are  waking  up  to the  lies  and  theft  of  the  war  profiteers...get  these  Republican
  neo-con  gargoyles   out of  the White  House.     They love war  and  miltary conflicts  because they make money off of  it!

An Open Letter Concerning the Recent Occurrences of Censorship

April 2007

Last month a group of public high school students in Wilton, Connecticut were told by their principal that they could not perform “Voices in Conflict,” a play they wrote based on the words of soldiers serving in Iraq because it could be construed as “anti-war” and might upset the audience. Principal Timothy Canty went on to suggest that the students didn’t “know enough” and didn’t have the right to speak about the war. Within the same month at John Jay High School in Lewisboro, New York, three student actors were suspended because they dared to use the word 'vagina' in their reading of the critically acclaimed play, "The Vagina Monologues." Their principal, Richard Leprine, said the girls were punished because they had “disobeyed orders” in speaking the word.  More recently, recalling the controversy of last year at the New York Theater Workshop, the board of the Mosiac Theatre in Miami has announced that the scheduled production of “My Name is Rachel Corrie” will be pulled from their season, despite a committed artistic team and seeming popular support. A subsequent press release from the theater cited objections from an impassioned, vocal minority in the community.  Isolated, these occurrences might reflect local discomfort about a particular issue.  But viewed as part of the political landscape of today’s America, these cancellations cease to be isolated events. Rather, they highlight a frightening reality- that in today’s climate of atrophied public discourse, artists are increasingly subject to censorship based on the content of their work.  James Presson, a 16 year old actor in “Voices of Conflict” told the New York Times, “Our school is all about censorship. People don’t talk about the things that matter.”  Sadly, this problem goes well beyond the walls of a Connecticut high school.  Indeed, this silence on “things that matter” has pervaded even the most respected of cultural and educational institutions.  That an artist of any age or medium is under pressure to create work  devoid of critical questioning about the most important of issues is not only alarming for the artist but indeed for society as a whole. Noted U.S. Historian Howard Zinn has said this of the relationship between the artist and society: “It is the job of the artist to think outside the boundaries of permissible thought and dare say things that no one else will say.” Many celebrated artists have dared to do just this, just as many artists today continue to pursue work that challenges the social and political workings of our time.  We recognize this as bright light in a dark age. But that vital political artwork can so easily be canceled by an uneasy administration or board of directors is of great concern. Of course, what Principal Canty and others may not realize is that in trying to silence his students, he may have had the opposite effect.  Indeed we hope so.  But while these instances of censorship may serve to galvanize some to speak even louder, the restrictive thinking behind the censorship persists and if not challenged, threatens to take firmer hold in our society. As we face the possibility of censorship in our own work, let us remember the importance of the oppositional voice in the arts- robbed of this, the artist risks becoming a mere jester, a mouth piece for an oppressive dominant culture.  We recognize that certain powers will always have an eye on the artist, wanting to keep her confined to a corner, safely removed and politically benign.  We recognize this and we resist this.  We stand by our fellow artists and arts producers who, be they high school students or seasoned veterans, exhibit great courage in creating bold political work that challenges the way we think and operate.  And we challenge those who have not been so courageous to be so now.
