CARBONDALE - The Green Party gubernatorial hopeful Rich Whitney said he "can practically guarantee" his place on the November ballot - claiming the Greens have upheld 1,000 more signatures than legally required for ballot access.
Whitney said that as of Wednesday more than 26,153 signatures have been cleared of objection - state law requires 25,000 signatures for third party access to the statewide ballot. He said all that is left is for the State Board of Elections to verify the findings.
Sept. 1 is the last day for the State Board of Elections to certify General Election ballot.
Whitney, a civil-rights attorney from Carbondale, said he has followed the provisions of the law and proved himself as a candidate. Now, he'd like to treated as one and be included in the upcoming fall debates.
"It is in the best interests of the people of this state to have more choices for governor, not fewer," Whitney said. "It amazes me that Mr. Blagojevich would be opposed to testing his stances in an open marketplace of ideas." |

"The pattern of attacks shows the Israeli military's disturbing disregard for the lives of Lebanese civilians," said Roth. "Israeli warnings of imminent attacks do not turn civilians into military targets," he added, noting that, according to the IDF's logic, "Palestinian militant groups might 'warn' Israeli settlers to leave their settlements and then feel justified in attacking those who remained." |

No Blood for Oil - Sign the Voter's Pledge |

"No More Oil Wars-- Clean Energy Now!" This popular sentiment must find expression in government policy, and it is our job this fall to make every candidate running for Congress understand that this is what our people want. We should be circulating the VotersForPeace Pledge which declares that those signing "will not vote for or support any candidate for Congress or President who does not make a speedy end to the war in Iraq, and preventing any future war of aggression, a public position in his or her campaign." We must make visible this popular desire for peace, a rapid transition to clean energy and justice. |

An interesting post from indymediawatch.blogspot.com. The site is mostly the blog of a Fox News type taking potshots at Indymedia -- some deserved, some not -- but every now and then interesting things pop up in the comments from people within the IMC movement. I thought this one was worth passing on. @%< |

In labenon ,It seems that United Nations Organisation is becoming helpless. Power is dominating everywhere. So it is meaningless to talk about human rights. Now the solution of such impasse comes in the form of unity of the Arab world or in the form of the other effective world authority- all is in rerum natura. |
