A Bush Regime vs. The People of New York Reader
I'm putting together a little electronic library of the most insightful and well-written pieces illuminating the conflict between the Bush Regime and The People of New York which has come to a head in the world-famous protests of New Yorkers against the RNC convention. This post is just the begining of the project...feel free to add in some of your own favorites!

As you can guess from some of my first entries here, I think that that the intense conflict between many New Yorkers and the Bush Regime can be traced back to 9/11, which cemented the Bush Regimes power, and the way in which the Bush Administration deceptively exploited that tragedy. There are lots of other dimensions too, such as economic and social policies which hurt millions of people in the NY metro area, the number of New Yorkers who have died in the invasion and occupation of Iraq, which most New Yorkers never wanted to do, and so on.

Many of these pieces are good enough that you can print them out and read them before going to sleep, just so you can absorb there full depth!
