Veterans Climb Government Building, Call for Arrest of Bush and Cheney
September 23, 2008 by dinofond.
Right now, five military veterans — from Veterans for Peace — are occupying a 35-foot high ledge at the National Archive Building and have raised a 22×8-foot banner reading, “DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION. ARREST BUSH AND CHENEY: WAR CRIMINALS!” The veterans currently risking arrest have declared their intention to stay on the ledge, fasting for 24 hours “in remembrance of those who have perished and those still suffering from the crimes of the Bush administration,” according to a written statement. On the ledge, the veterans have brought with them a portable PA system, and they are broadcasting recorded statements from prominent Americans for the impeachment and/or arrest of George W. Bush and Richard Cheney. Other impeachment activists are at the entrance of the National Archives distributing “Citizens Arrest Warrants” to those waiting in line. This is the type of boldness that activists have displayed across the country to bring much-needed attention to this movement.
UPDATE! The main stream corporate press has completely ignored this story. Here’s some further youtube video
It appears the some *cough* random *cough* hackers from somewhere *cough* have already infiltraited you tube and are changing the dates on the Videos, I’m sure this is so Rush lipbalm can say somthing nasty about it on his POS radio show. This is happening now it is happening today you can see more on the Veterans for Peace website by clicking here

RIP Hiram Bullock 1955 - 2008
September 23, 2008 by dinofond.
I was surprised (and a little late) to hear of the passing of Hiram Bullock one of my all time favorite guitar players. Hiram was very well known as the “original” guitarist in the David Letterman show band who was fired because he refused to wear shoes while playing. Hiram Bullock had a blooming funk career (to us funkadellics) long before David Letterman playing with such greats as David Sanborn, Billy Joel, James Brown, Steely Dan, miles Davis and the Great Bootsy Collins. Hiram was 10 years older then me which hits home, I have been a student of his playing since I was a kid listening. Hiram developed a throat tumor that should have been easily treatable but radically took over his glands in his body within just a few months. He passed away just months after his diagnosis. Hiram’s is survived by his partner of 16 years Jennifer Armstrong, two stepsons, known as Sansho and Niko; and four sisters, Jackie Lewis, Carmen Bean, Brenda Canterbury and Margene Williams. R.I.P My Man.
Here’s Hiram just absolutely Smoking with the Poogie Bell Band at the blue note in NY last year.
