This Joe Anybody "Had To Write His Name In" becaus of the efforts to stiffle Democracy.
With some "Hope for the Future" Read the letter below from
Peter Miguel Camejo about his running partner,
my Hero "RALPH NADER".




Dear Friend,


Over a year has passed since the 2004 presidential elections. While it is still early to fully analyze the meaning of Ralph Nader’s candidacy for president, it has occurred to me that certain fundamental themes are now easier to see than at the time of the campaign.

Fundamentally what separates Ralph Nader from the progressives who opposed his running is Nader’s deep belief in the people themselves being able to change society. That is, Nader really believes democracy is possible. Those who opposed Nader and capitulated by calling for a vote for a candidate who opposed everything they claim to support reflect a hopelessness that there is no way to overcome the control of money over people. Deep down they do not really believe the people could ever rise up and take control of their lives, their country and institute democracy.

Never in the history of our nation has there been such a massive campaign to try and prevent ballot access by an individual running for Presidential office so that those who agreed with him could actually vote for him.

The anti-Nader campaign was a totalitarian effort against free elections aimed at the people’s right to choose and specifically aimed at those who will not surrender their commitment to democracy. Not a single elected Democrat in the United States spoke out against their party’s campaign not to allow the voters to choose. Not one. This alone shows the utter political and moral bankruptcy of that Party.

The Nation, the Progressive, Mother Jones, MoveOn.org, all the leaders of the Progressive Democrats of America not only did not oppose the campaign against democracy but in most cases participated and promoted it.

I can think of only one similar historical event. The early abolitionist movement believed slavery could only be ended if the slave owners could be convinced to free their slaves. Like today they believed you had to accept the political system, you could not go outside the framework and challenge the two pro-slavery parties. You could only lobby, petition, beg but not challenge directly who should rule.

Then in 1840 James G. Birney ran for president on behalf of a newly formed party, the abolitionist Liberty Party. Many of the abolitionists, like progressives today, opposed Birney’s daring to run. It was not realistic. But in fact Birney’s campaign was the opening shot of what was to change America forever and lead to the collapse of the political framework that had allowed slavery to remain unchallenged.

The Liberty Party supporters were called fanatics, self-isolating, unrealistic, and even crazy, as Michael Moore called Nader for daring to run for peace, democracy and pro labor.

But Birney and Nader are not alone in American history. General James B. Weaver ran in 1880 for president for the Greenback Labor Party and campaigned in the South after the crushing of the reconstruction government defending the rights of African Americans. Weaver’s campaign helped set the background for the great rise of the Populist movement and later the rise of another champion of the people - Eugene V. Debs.

There has been a long history of efforts to break the control of money over people and to establish a political movement to fight for democracy in the United States. Nader’s whole life has been rooted in his belief that the people through their own actions can make a difference. His appeals have always been to mobilize from the bottom up.

Nader’s efforts have resulted in so many important victories. While many know of Nader having made their cars safer they do not realize that his efforts have been instrumental in protecting our air, and water, including the establishment of the EPA and OSHA in the early Seventies.

He helped win rights for passengers on airlines, fought for national health care, living wage, freedom of information, against nuclear power, against all kinds of corporate abuses, manipulation, false advertising, and fraudulent practices. He has fought to protect our national resources and public assets. He has defended workers in the mines, auto factories and throughout America and fought against WTO and corporate globalization. He advocated for the use of industrial hemp early, fought discrimination against women and minorities and the rise of monopolies.

As an incorruptible symbol of the rights of the people Nader is a threat to a world based on the corrupting power of money. In time Nader’s campaigns in 2000 and 2004 will be seen as the beginning of what may become a new wave in the battle for democracy. There are now so many signs world wide of the beginning of another radicalizing wave, waves that appear about once every 30 years. We can see it in the events in Latin America, the recent rise of the Maori people in New Zealand, and the massive world opposition to the war in Iraq and globalization. Unlike the radicalizations of the 1930s and 60s, the need to break with the two parties of money is in the air. Twenty five percent of our people are not registered in the two major parties and 38% answer they are independent in polls.

Six months after the election we saw Nader fighting at rally after rally for peace as the Democrats declared their loyalty to Bush’s war. Even Howard Dean had dropped his anti-war rhetoric as the Democrats gave George Bush thirty-nine standing ovations at his 2005 State of the Union address.

Nader stands on the side of all the mass social movements. His call for the need to break with the political duopoly will resound as the next wave develops.

As I speak at meetings here in California since the elections I notice how no one but absolutely no one gets up to defend John Kerry. Even those who voted for him feel a bit embarrassed. The winds are starting to shift.

It was a great honor for me to be part of Nader’s historic challenge as his vice presidential associate. As I traveled throughout our nation speaking to audiences, primarily of young people, I knew I was looking into the eyes of those in the future who will be the leaders of our nation. We know not yet what our nation owes Nader for the seeds he has planted among the minds of our people, especially our youth.

Let us all respect, assist and support Ralph Nader’s continuing efforts, as he has assisted and defended all efforts for social justice, democracy and peace.
Thank you for your generous support and bright horizons.

Sincerely,
Peter Miguel Camejo

This month Senator McCain's amendment was presented and he had to FIGHT tooth-n-nail to get it brought to the floor but has "WON" overwhelming Senate support by a vote of 90-9

And... the "support" (if you can call it that)of House members on a vote of 308-122.
Yielding to this bipartisan mandate, President Bush finally endorsed the McCain amendment, and it has just become law!

You see Z3 Readers Bush and our White House had to be forced to admit that Torture isn't what The USA should be doing.
"FORCED" I say

?...and How sick does that sound to you I ask...?

Those sick PRO-TORTURE Representives, who were
the 122 House Representatives that DIDN'T vote to
"STOP THIS ATROTOCITY" should wear a *&^%$# bag on their heads for Christmas too.....
And then as most likely in this picture, they can explain that to their kids, who want to know why their "Daddy Has A Hood On His Head"........

Ralph Naders Thoughts on George & Dick's Illegal War (Impeach)
Mood:  not sure
Now Playing: IMPEACHABLE REASONS
Topic: NADER
Have a, Merry, Merry Christmas,

and an

Impeachable New Year!



Ralph Nader actually suggested that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney both should resign.
Basically because they have disgraced their offices.

Now I couldn't agree more!
In fact this Joe Anybody Voted for the man who is saying just that, a man of principles and respect ....click Here to read about Ralph Asking for the Two War Criminals "To Step Down".
Bush violated the law because of the arrogance of power says Ralph on December 25 2005 Christmas Day, and my fellow Z3 Readers You all know why he is asking for this too, just in the atrocities you have read here in my reports alone are grounds for jail if not prison time.
And "Joe Patriotism Anybody" said that if you want to quote me.

Now an illegal, criminal war, means that every related U.S. death and injury, every related Iraqi civilian death and injury, every person tortured, every home and building destroyed become war crimes as a result--under established international law.

Just think about the old saying ....
"Justice is Served"
.....now that is Exactly what I have Ben Waiting for!!!!
That would be a start for a
"Happy New Year Indeed!"

Take The Survey on MSNBC

Do you believe President Bush's actions justify impeachment? *
162172 responses


Yes, between the secret spying, the deceptions leading to war and more, there is plenty to justify putting him on trial.85%

No, like any president, he has made a few missteps, but nothing approaching "high crimes and misdemeanors."5%

No, the man has done absolutely nothing wrong. Impeachment would just be a political lynching.8%

The federal government allocated roughly $7 billion this year for high-tech efforts to defend against potential terrorist attacks with biological, chemical or nuclear weapons.

Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations says "This creates the appearance that Muslims are targeted simply for being Muslims, I don't think this is the message the government wants to send at this time."

Hell!... Bush would Torture Them right now for TERRORIST INFORMATION 'if he could' is what "I" say!

Hooper said his organization has serious concerns about the constitutionality of monitoring on private property without a court order.

Viet Nam Page and Christmas Thoughts
Mood:  chillin'
Now Playing: Christmas on the Battlefield
Topic: WAR



Christmas in Iraq can you Imagine?
I couldn't help but think of the guys and gals over there in Iraq as I drove home with my heater cranked up and all snuggled in surrounded by warm Christmas Gifts from my loving family members and our nice holiday get-to-gether.

Ahhhh the life of Christmas Luxury. For me!
Peace in my personal world,
ahhhhhhhhh! So commmmffffyyyy!
But!..... So far, far a way a battle rages on! Even on Christmas Day!

My heart cries out for the toll of that which the battle insists that we all must pay. And we do pay!
... Christmas day in a worn torn invaded Nation, where there are cries in the night as I drive silently home in the darkness of My World.
I can hear those cries from 1,000 of miles away!
Cries as bullets settle softly into young bodies and old alike,
or miss there human mark entirely, and lay idle in the dust and dirt for many years as a reminder of what powerful nation can do if they allow their leaders to be abusive, and run wild and out of control. As a reminder that Death covers a land that asked for nothing.

And as I steer the car gently into the driveway safe at my home, I say, thinking out loud "I hope the soldiers get to come home soon too, and I hope that those lost and whom are aimlessly are wandering in the barren dessert and are 'now-homeless-families' that have loved ones dead or missing or who are kidnapped into US prison camps and are missing... can find some kind of peace or hope and a little warmth today too and that they can feel they are not, forgotten! . I hope there is a calm on the battle field that lasts as long as it humanly possibly can....
and Readers let's push for countries to love one another and put and end to this Imperialist Madness.

Christmas during war?

My newest update on Joe-Anybody.com is on the subject of Viet Nam, located on my
"WAR ROOM page Here "
With all due respect to a Veteran friend of mine I suggest you check out Joe's latest post on that War that rocked our World then, and today it seems to be So Now Forgotten!I just posted two short excerpt's from a new book by my friend/author Mike M, that is soon to be coming out. Based on his time in life, at a young age of 19 and being in the Viet Nam War
It is fitting and so timely that I offer you this link that he so kindly shared with me, which relates to today's war in so many ways.
Please enjoy and remember our Vetrans and Soldiers that trusted enough in their Leaders to fight for them & the "least we can do" is make our Government be Honest and Accountable in the first place and "To Keep War At A Mere Minimum At The Most - - -

.....Support Peace,
Support Our Troops And Let's Bring Them Home.

Iraqi Doctors Beaten and Arrested in Haditha Hospital by American troops ? Huh?(read more --> RIGHT HERE! )


Sabah Ali (30/10/2005)

Dr. Walid Al-Obeidi, the director of Haditha General Hospital and Dr. Jamil Abdul Jabbar, the only surgeon in the Haditha area were arrested for a week, very badly beaten and threatened to face the same treatment in the future by the American Troops.

Dr.Walid said - "They arrested me in my house in front of my family, covered my eyes, and tied my hands to the back on Oct 5 2005 morning, during the last attack on Haditha (360 kilometers west of Baghdad). They (Americans) occupied the hospital for 8 days and made it their office. The first day they beat me on my eyes, nose, back, hands, legs... My face was covered with blood .When they removed the tie I could not see. They investigated me until the afternoon. I realized later that I was arrested in the hospital store. Then they tied my hands to the front, and left me for two days. I was moved then to the pharmacy department. They accused me of treating terrorists, and asked for their names.

I told them that I treat patients regardless of their identity, according to my oath as a doctor; even if they were national guards (which we actually I did) or American soldiers. And any way, if I do not want to treat the insurgents, I have no choice, because they were armed and masked. I would do anything they tell to do. Few days later, one of the soldiers came in the room, did not say anything, kicked me again on my face and left?.

Dr. Jamil, a surgeon for 20 years, was arrested and very badly beaten. When we met him, 22 days later, his face was still blue. His nose was broken, and a big opening in his head: ?They beat me on my eyes and nose, kicked me with boots under my chin. One of them threatened me if I do not talk after he counts to three, he would shoot me. He began counting, after three he turned the gun upside down and hit me on the back of my head. For days I could not move or see. They threatened us of abusing our families. For some reason they took my picture while I was bleeding, I could hear the camera click?.

Both doctors were threatened if they do not talk, they would receive the same treatment in the future. They were warned of passing any information of the arrest to the media. They were asked who wrote the hostile slogans against the American on the opposite wall of the hospital? What are the names of the insurgents they treated? and what are the bodies? pictures in the hospital computer?

Dr. Walid said he does not know who wrote on the wall outside the hospital, what the names of the insurgents are, because they were masked. He explained that the dead bodies? pictures were of unknown people whose bodies were found after the fighting. ?We can not keep these bodies forever; we do not have enough cold boxes. So, after two months, we take their pictures and bury them, so that whenever some one from their families comes to ask we show the pictures of the dead bodies?.

The UN, the international HR organizations, WHO, Doctors sans frontiers and all who it may concern are called upon to do some thing to help these, and other Iraqi doctors, and to prevent similar treatment in the future. Dr. Walid and Dr. Jamil believe that they may face the arrest and beating in the future. They demand that the American troops stop occupying the hospital and destroying it every time the attack Haditha. They also believe that the Iraqi authorities are incapable of protecting them.

"~ MERRY CHRISTMAS ~

Ralph Nader
Mood:  loud
Now Playing: Bird Flu - Debate - Truth - Death
Topic: NADER
Here is what was in an email to joe anybody on the 23 of December
I thought it contained an interesting points to make about a couple different subjects
1. Bird Flu
2. Bush Kerry Du-opoly Election Debate Farce

Below is the email from Joe's Favorite Canidate:

For your Information:In his new book, The Monster at Our Door - The Global Threat of Avian Flu, author Mike Davis writes that "Kerry, in fact, let Bush off the hook, never once mentioning the avian influenza threat in any of the three presidential debates." Davis then tells his readers what we knew but the media ignored last year.

******** Here are Mike Davis' words: **********

In short, as Nature pointed out, "Three years of heightened concern about bioterrorism have done nothing to address the fundamental weakness of the U.S. public health system. Except for those lucky few - mainly doctors and soldiers - who might receive prophylactic treatment with Tamiflu, the Bush administration had left most Americans as vulnerable to the onslaught of a new flu pandemic as their grandparents or great grandparents had been in 1918. Pandemic planners admitted that the bulk of the public, initially at least, would simply have to cower in their homes. In a presidential election season dominated by "national security," pandemic vulnerability should have been a decisive wedge issue; however, the Kerry campaign scolded Bush for the vaccine debacle and promised to stabilize future production with government purchases of unused stocks, but otherwise offered few substantive ideas for repairing America's collapsing public-health infrastructure. Kerry, in fact, let Bush off the hook, never once mentioning the avian influenza threat in any of the three presidential debates.

The only presidential candidate to pay attention to the monster at the door was Ralph Nader, the candidate whose presence in the campaign was so reviled by "progressive" born again Democrats. In February 2004 Nader contrasted the administration's obsession with Iraq's nonexistent "weapons of mass destruction" with its failure to energetically address avian flu in Asia. "The chain of infections from domesticated Chinese ducks to pigs to humans," he forewarned in colorful prose, "can explode into a world war of mutant viruses taking millions of casualties before vaccines can be developed and deployed." Six months later he wrote a public letter to Bush impeaching the administration's failure to act upon the warnings of top researchers and medical organizations. "Such notice apparently is not enough to move your Presidency to action. These mutating viruses are not like human villains. You need to recognize that their indiscriminate destruction of innocent civilians however, can be considered a form of viral terrorism." In the WHO's "worst-case" scenario, 2 million of these "innocent civilians" threatened with death are Americans of the remaining 98 million, however, live in the poor cities of the Third World."

~Ralph Nader

Wal Mart The Bentonville, Ark.-based retailer, which earned $10 billion last year, who just settled a similar lawsuit in Colorado for $50 million, now settles another court case today in OAKLAND, California - A California jury on Thursday awarded $172 million to thousands of employees at Wal-Mart Stores Inc. who claimed they were illegally denied lunch breaks.
HAHAHA a huge billion-dollar company that wants to FUCK workers over

HAHAHAHA now they will pay
I never shop at this degrading store
I refuse to have any part of their abuses by these mega corporations. They cut pay
They cut health care. They cut benefits. They move overseas to pay slave wages. They are Dirty Bastards. They screw their own workers over time and time again

Today is time to celebrate 172 million dollars!
Of course they will appeal and as He (Wal-Mart attorney Neal Manne) conceded that Wal-Mart made mistakes in not always allowing for lunch breaks when the 2001 law took affect, but said the company is “100 percent” in compliance now.

They knew damn well to give the poor workers a lunch break

BUT

Wal Mart had to have a court tell them to do it.

AND then they had to get fined 172 million dollars

SO ….

they can say they are now 100% compliant
.......NOW!!!!! they Are !!!!!!!
hahahaha (stupid-cheap-skates)

to late now you CEO tightwads’
…NOW! Who’s next????? we are just warming up !

an extension on the Patriot Act has been bumped to 6 more months of discussion.
For the mere fact that they didn't pass the reauthorization of the Patriot Act I am happy.

And We here at Z3 Reports will be keeping you informed on the investigations into illegal NSA wiretaps on Americans without FISA warrants, FBI and Pentagon spying on peaceful groups and protesters, the administration's rewriting of the Army Field Manual that renders the torture ban moot, the denial of habeas rights to Guant?namo Bay detainees, and more.

But right now I am so angry at our Government I better not write anything at all!!!
I am sooooooooo pisssed at these Bush Co Thieves

Let me take a break and THINK!

This fricken administration that serves only their own interests as they get wealthier and Joe Anybody gets poorer, absolutely upsets me to 'no end'

They steal my constitutional rights and cut services to the poor and to education, and spy on US citizens too, while they beat and torture and kill foreigners, cover up and lie about it.
And every day of my life this continues over and over

Is this how America is going to be with King George being allowed to ruin it all?

Poorest Countries Get Debt Relief from IMF
Mood:  incredulous
Now Playing: Hard to Believe - Good News in the Z3 report
Topic: BIG MONEY PLAYERS


December 22, 2005 2:31 a.m. EST
London, England (AHN) - The International Monetary Fund (IMF) writes off the $3.3 billion owed by most of poorest countries in the world.
The multilateral debt relief initiative was agreed by leaders of the G8 industrialized states in July after the series of "Live 8" rock concerts drew attention to the issue, according to BBC News.

The debts owed by the 19 nations will finally be canceled once the IMF has the approval of all 43 rich countries that have contributed to an anti-poverty trust set up by the Fund.

"So far we have 37 consents. We're quite hopeful we'll get remaining the six in the next few weeks," says IMF spokesman Thomas Dawson.

Benin, Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Ghana, Guyana, Honduras, Madagascar, Mali, Mozambique, Nicaragua, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia should receive IMF debt relief by early 2006.
