It doesn’t explain everything, but it explains a lot: George Bush, our president, is hitting the bottle again. The drinking rumors have been making the rounds for months, and even before that people speculated that Bush’s “accidents�—choking on a pretzel, dropping his dog, crashing his bicycle—were “alcohol-related.� For someone who makes such a point of flaunting his physical prowess, his habitual clumsiness is somewhat suspicious.

The ultimate objective, according to sources, is to suppress democracy.
If the plan proceeds, UNEP, along with all the environmental treaties under its jurisdiction, would ultimately be governed by a special body of environmental activists, chosen only from accredited NGOs appointed by delegates to the General Assembly who are themselves appointed by the President of the United States, who himself is controlled by the Rockefeller-Council on Foreign Relations (CFR)-Bilderberg interlocking leadership.

Attempting to loosen decades-old restrictions, the Pentagon is asking Congress to allow its intelligence agents to go undercover when they approach Americans who may have useful national-security information, rather than identifying themselves as intelligence operatives.

Many people who have been involved in Newsday circulation over the years point to abuse of a list of non-paying subscribers known as Code 51. In one program in the late 1990s, circulation managers decided "we were going to take people who had stopped the paper and we were going to deliver to them and give them a second chance," whether they wanted it or not, and send them a bill, said a former Newsday employee
