MEMO ADDRESSED TO THE UNITED STATES SENATE
I am a citizen of the United States and have been addressing several Senators with the issues and problems to follow
including Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama as well as several others and will in the near future be speaking in front of
you all because of Americans being held hostage by Navy personnel from Great Lakes Navy base as well as by
veterans used to Stalk and intimidate by the abuse of Power of the IRS and the United States Dept. of Justice. I
have been taken out of and kept from employment by them as they attempt a hostile search for money, i have my
phones tapped and computer hacked by government personnel spending alot of government budget following me
everyday for at least 8 months, all my family and past associates has been paid by them to create some ftctious story
because of a conspiracy, initated by the FBI from Chicago and brought to Wisconsin. All of this is a clear violation of
my Civil Rights and also the rights of my daughter who has been questioned and harrassed at school by them, she
is 5 years old. I have had to replace my computer 3 times because they are camped upstairs and i listen to them thru
the vents as they call themselves strategizing but not very well if I hear your every attempt to play on American
citizens.My family has had their cars as well as i have tampered by them in and attempt to get us or me to spend
money, they have raised bills above normal, been in my garage leaving lights on in an order to do so stopped my
emails from reaching their intended destinations and faked as the recipient, they have acted as operators and
fake being the person I called on the other line, I have been told by the police that they would not do anything
because they know who it is which is fither showing the attempt to keep me hostage. I have filed lawsuits and will
continue because I believe even that was manipulated by them as everything and everyone else has been, I have
talked to the security chief after calling the Chief of Great Lakes Navybase, no cooperation, Bush is who I believe
brought this because of corrupt judges from Chicago, after I brought this out to officials. American citizens who are
not terrorist being treated as if they are, I say send some more troops to war since we have so many of them to follow
people around everyday, someone is reimbursing them for this large price tag of surviellance. I see the plan must
be to discredit or in gov. terms attempt to burn me or ruin my career because they have some corrupt people in
the government.
sincerly,

Where Have All of the Other People Gone?
After listening to all the ranting and raving concerning race in America I have to ask myself, “Where have all of the other people gone?” The last time I looked, America was divided into many more groups than black and white.
And with all of the references being made to America being a divided nation and how Obama is going to bring us all together, I feel compelled to remind him, and everyone else, that skin shade is not the only thing that divides us. So why then is it then that it is the only so-called division factor that is being played out in the media and cast in to all of the bigoted arguments.
If we are going to talk about race and gender, let’s be fair and call it what it really is, inequality. And while we are giving it a name, let’s be fair and throw everyone into the mix that are treated unfairly in this great democracy. That is the only way we are going to truly unite this nation and live up to the title of greatest nation on earth.
I do believe that African Americans are not treated fairly, but they are in good company. What about all other minority races? What about women, Homosexuals, children, poor people of all colors, disabled people, he earth and even animals. The list goes on and on. Why then do I not hear equality for all people being preached from the pulpit, used in political platforms or reported in the news? Why do we have to pass laws that prohibit discrimination based on these differences? Why would we not add an entire group of people to the list of those affected by hate crimes?
It’s true, Hilary has probably never been called the “N” word, but I am quite sure that Jeremiah Wright has never been called the “C” word, the “S” word, the “F” word or any other of the other words that shouldn’t be uttered in a civilized nation. Why then doesn’t Pastor Wright stick up for all of the downtrodden when he is God Damning the USA? Is the poor treatment of black people the only sin discussed in his bible? Perhaps he should be called the “S” word (selfish) or the “B” word (bigoted) or the “F” word (fanatic). A selfish, bigoted, fanatic. See how that works? I am quite sure he is the first one to stand in his pulpit and dog Homosexuals based on some warped biblical translation/belief. If I am wrong I apologize…but somehow I doubt it.
Do any of the candidates dare bring the issue of inequality to the forefront of this campaign? Do any of the candidates dare bring up all of the taboo subjects that truly divide this nation and find a fair way to deal with all of them? Do any of the candidates dare to stand up for the separation of church and state and make laws based on the freedoms stated in the constitution of this great country.
To do this you will need to really look at all of the ways this country is divided, not just 1.

If you want a Republican to win, if you want the Iraq war to be a 100-year war, if you want the resources of our country to continue to spill out to fill the coffers of the Bush-Cheney Evil Empire, then nasty bugs keep winning is because they come together around whoever their candidate is. There are enough Democrats in the country to overturn this administration, the Congress and the Senate in one fell swoop. No matter who wins the nomination, we must all gather around the Democratic candidate and show up at the ballot box.
