Anti-war protesters camp near the White House

On the tenth anniversary of the war in Afghanistan, thousands unite at Freedom Plaza, demanding that politicians take notice. They say their message is loud and clear: stop reckless spending on wars abroad and stop corporate corruption which they say benefits a privileged few. Protesters say this is just the beginning and they plant to occupy DC until they see some real change.

All these companies got bailout money then gave themselves millions of dollars in bonuses?? WTF, how greedy are American Corps becoming. This "ME First" society sickens me. Why is everyone so selfish. I have College Degrees and cant find a job. Obama job bill didn't do anything but screw up the economy for us and future generations. I APPLAUD THESE Brave Americans taking the street!!

Something happened in 11/09/2001 which led the West to lose its character references so that the machinery of government, and people who work there, has embarked on a kind of contempt for the individual. The Nazis went further along this path, but it is undeniably the same path trod the Nazis. One day we will look retrospectively, with the same look now launched on McCarthyism, perplexed aberrations have committed. The loss of liberalism would be the ultimate victory of al-Qaeda.

• A petition to launch a real, public, subpoena-empowered, criminal investigation of the events of Sept. 11, 2001 is on the White House website. 5,000 signatures needed by 28 October 2011. Please go & sign that petition, & tell all your friends who care about the truth of 9/11. Spread it wide & quick across the Internet. We need a new fully independent commission to investigate this horrified tragedy.

Those in power will do anything (include the killing of own citizens) within their power to remain in power & best interests!

Most super rich will do diabolical & vicious things with their money to make more money!

WE must get up & raise our voices against the corruption of banking, finance, governments & media. True democracy & justice is not a free ride, WE must continuously act & maintain it fully for us & our children.
