Big oil, big media & greedy politicians have told us the BIG LIE.

They want us to blame China, India or speculators- anyone but them- for the increase in demand & high fuel cost.

But that's a BIG LIE. Why, because they omit what driving low mileage tanks & humvees all over the desert, or transporting equipment & troops- not just service members but private contractors which outnumber our troop levels, or what effect the surge is having on supply & demand. Did you notice the highest spike in prices at the pump coincided with 'the surge'. Did you know that the Department of Defense is the biggest purchaser of oil in the world?

Here's the next BIG LIE: Protests are ineffective. Remember the President of the United States asking the Saudis to increase oil production not once but twice & both times the Saudis refused- even with a multi-billion dollar arms deal on the table, claiming the problem was speculators not supply & demand? But then as soon as Europe erupted in gas strikes the Saudis did a 180 & promised to increase output.

But don't look or wait to find these stories on CNN, Fox, MSNBC, NY Times, etc. Why, is it a conspiracy? NO, but they all profit from war.

Don't expect the Democratic controlled Congress to end the war, either. 151 Democratic Senators & Congressmen have at least $190 million of their own money invested in weapons manufactures who hold contracts with the Department of Defense doing business in Iraq.

And both presidential candidates from both parties have accepted campaign contributions from the military industrial complex.

But there is an EXIT STRATEGY from Iraq & from high GAS PRICES.

SHUT 'EM DOWN

From big oil, big media & greedy politicians.

1. Economic Strike ON NOW.

2. Impeachment Protest July 3th & 4th.

www.votestrike.com

I created a website www.votestrike.com for you the voters because whichever party you belong to they have failed you. The website has ambitious goals of how to end the two party system & the third party myth. Modeled after the fall of the Berlin wall, the Polish overthrow of the communist government & the Phillipines removal of Marcos. All accomplished without firing a shot. But we do not rely on the failed tactics of the past instead we use the election system & the very votes & voters this system relies upon. And the site also offers campaign funding sources- who's bought off your candidate? As well as your solutions to education, lobbyist, healthcare, illegal immigration, the war on terror, the war in Iraq, crime, drugs, pedophiles, taxes. And a link page with 1000 links to more on these topics. I'm here to ask you to check it out, it's free. And you can submit content. Thanks for your time, my name is chris.
