Military Commissions Act Protest on Thursday Nov. 2

On October 17, 2006 President Bush signed the Military Commissions Act to allegedly give our Military more tools to fight terrorism.

This legislation grants unchecked Authority to the Executive Branch to label people as “unlawful enemy combatants” which are defined solely by the executive, and if they see fit, there is no legal barrier that can protect US citizens from bearing this abominable label without the right to question it. That means YOU!

Come help reclaim the Bill of Rights with UT student group the Project for the New American Citizen on Thursday, November 2 from 12 pm to 2 pm on the West Mall of UT campus. Guadalupe & 22nd St. We will be hosting an array of speakers, including Jim Hightower and the Executive Director of ACLU-Texas Will Harrell, and several others.

Then later that day we will be hosting 2006 Congressional Candidate Michael Badnarik at the UTC 4.104 on UT campus from 7-8 pm to speak on this disturbing new legislation.

No one is more enslaved than those that think they are free; come reclaim freedom and make our presence known.

Ken Jenkins to Speak at Brave New Books this Saturday (10/14) at 3 pm

We are holding a lecture/workshop type event at Brave New Books this Saturday, Oct. 14th, at 3 pm with Ken Jenkins.

Mr. Jenkins is the producer of Dr. David Ray Griffin's work, and is the creator of the "11 Remarkable Facts about 9/11" cards that have been so well received.

He will be covering various speaking points and effective confrontation approaches when speaking to others about 9/11. This could be particularly helpful for those who wish to better engage in debate with others, whether they be mere skeptics, full-out deniers, or fence-sitters.

Daily Texan: Protests, Insults Disrupt Kristol 9/11 Speech

A speech by William Kristol, former chief of staff for former vice president Dan Quayle and editor of The Weekly Standard magazine, turned hostile Tuesday when students began hurling insults at Kristol, alleging his and the U.S. government's complicity in the Sept. 11 attacks.

"9/11 is your Pearl Harbor," said one student protestor, referring to a pre-Sept. 11 statement released by the Project for a New American Century, a conservative think tank Kristol chairs.
