Dog, puppies available from Animal Advocates
True is passing along this info from our dedicated Animal Advocates. I'll skip the lecture, this time, about people not taking responsibility for companion animals under their care.....
Please, if you can, take one of these dogs into your home and your heart, and commit to meeting their welfare and needs.

We have two five month old rot shep mixes, vet checked, first shots.
Both these boys are going to be big.
Also, a two year old rot mix,fixed, current shots. He is lovable and quite
the ham. Very strong dog needs room to play and a strong arm. Quite
trainable and loves people. Good with kids but not recommended for a home with small
children as he is too playful.

Oberstar Announces Assistance for Businesses Hit by Ham Lake Fire
US Rep. Jim Oberstar, ably assisted by Senator Amy Klobuchar, have gotten support for Ham Lake victims despite a rather deaf ear turned to us by Dubya who probably never heard of the Boundary Waters wilderness and couldn't care less. Thanks!

On Cindy Sheehan
Cindy Sheehan is that one person who changed the world. When her son Casey died in Iraq she asked Dubya repeatedly why he died: For what noble cause? She was just a pest when she started out and Dubs brushed her easily aside. But today her devotion has brought the US and the world to ask the same questions: What noble cause?
Cindy did not relent when the Dems caved, providing funds without limits for the Iraq war to the crazed "Decider." She will never relent, and nor will True.
But, it hurts when your own base throws mud on you. It really hurts especially when you have given every penny, and every ounce of energy that you have to stop this insane, immoral, unjust, and yes, evil, war....
Check out this story about Cindy... Cindy, my heroine, my saint, my inspiration, and just another human being who needs us to stand up and be counted for peace.

Plenty of good news
The amazing WTIP continues with its world-class coverage of the Ham Lake fire and aftermath. Things True learned about today:
The 6,000 donated white pines planted last weekend in a volunteer effort of about 170 folks, half perhaps from the Cities.
How Jim Oberstar and Amy Klobuchar were up the Trail listening to our concerns.
And the good news reported to boreal today, from the Gunflint Trail Association (also reported today on WTIP) about Oberstar's work on our behalf:
Congressman Oberstar has heard our call! After meeting with representatives of the Cook County Sheriff's department the USFS, Gunflint Trail businesses, & residents, here is his report to us:1. He has met with the head of FEMA who has agreed to expedite the production and installation of the phone cable.2. The sprinkler program with FEMA will be repeated. FEMA will pay 75% with a 25% participant match for new system installations, existing system upgrades, or repairs to damaged systems.3. The Director of FEMA (feeling a 800 Mhz system would not be appropriate for this area) will be contacting the Sheriffs office and the Gunflint Trail Volunteer Fire Department to get an appropriate communication system for the Gunflint Trail.4. The Director of FEMA and Congressman Oberstar have both looked at theapplication by the Gunflint Trail Volunteer Fire Department for the pumper truck. FEMA will contact the GTVFD directly to help write an application that will be approved.5. Congressman Oberstar has also been in touch with the Small Business Administration to see what they could do to help businesses. Two regional SBA representatives will visit Grand Marais to assist people impacted by the fire to get loans directly from the SBA. They have asked the Governor to fax the necessary letter to the SBA where it will be immediately approved. Once approved the SBA people can start issuing loans.6. Finally, FEMA has really nice trailers available for temporary use while rebuilding. The trailers are currently in another state. The Congressman needs to know how many trailers people will need to use while they rebuild. Congressman Oberstar says they are "nice trailers".Watch the http://www.gunflint911.org website to sign up to receive information regarding FEMA assistance for Wildfire Sprinkler Systems. A sign-up form should be available at that site within the next day or so. Our heartfelt thanks to Congressman Oberstar, for his prompt attention and response to our needs.

The Goods on Goodling and the Keys to the Kingdom
This is IT, folks! Caging, the felony that stole the 2004 election. We already knew that Florida's Bushies backed by the Supremes stole 2000. What journalist will have the courage to publish this in the MSM?
No wonder they "lost" the emails. We know of the many high crimes and misdemeanors but only Monica Goodling has clued us in to how the election theft was managed.....
While the MSM agonizes over Rosie and American Idol, the truth is once again hidden. What will it take? Nuking Iran? Doubling troops in Iraq? Stealing Iraqi oil reserves while gouging us with gas prices? Torturing prisoners? Secret prisons? Spying on all of us in our homes, our castles?
What will it take for YOU to stand up and be counted, you shy Norwegians?

And the no longer "missing" Rove emails revealing the cagey scheme to steal 2008...
This Monica revealed something hotter - much hotter - than a stained blue dress. In her opening testimony yesterday before the House Judiciary Committee, Monica Goodling, the blonde-ling underling to Attorney General Alberto Gonzales and Department of Justice Liaison to the White House, dropped The Big One.... And the Committee members didn't even know it.
Goodling testified that Gonzales' Chief of Staff, Kyle Sampson, perjured himself, lying to the committee in earlier testimony. The lie: Sampson denied Monica had told him about Tim Griffin's "involvement in 'caging' voters" in 2004.
Huh?? Tim Griffin? "Caging"???
The perplexed committee members hadn't a clue - and asked no substantive questions about it thereafter. Karl Rove is still smiling. If the members had gotten the clue, and asked the right questions, they would have found "the keys to the kingdom," they thought they were looking for. They dangled right in front of their perplexed faces.
The keys: the missing emails - and missing link - that could send Griffin and his boss, Rove, to the slammer for a long, long time.
Kingdom enough for ya?
But what's 'caging' and why is it such a dreadful secret that lawyer Sampson put his license to practice and his freedom on the line to cover Tim Griffin's involvement in it? Because it's a felony. And a big one.
Our BBC team broke the story at the top of the nightly news everywhere on the planet - except the USA - only because America's news networks simply refused to cover this evidence of the electoral coup d'etat that chose our President in 2004.
Here's how caging worked, and along with Griffin's thoughtful emails themselves you'll understand it all in no time.
The Bush-Cheney operatives sent hundreds of thousands of letters marked "Do not forward" to voters' homes. Letters returned ("caged") were used as evidence to block these voters' right to cast a ballot on grounds they were registered at phony addresses. Who were the evil fakers? Homeless men, students on vacation and - you got to love this - American soldiers. Oh yeah: most of them are Black voters.
Why weren't these African-American voters home when the Republican letters arrived? The homeless men were on park benches, the students were on vacation - and the soldiers were overseas. Go to Baghdad, lose your vote. Mission Accomplished.
How do I know? I have the caging lists...
I have them because they are attached to the emails Rove insists can't be found. I have the emails. 500 of them - sent to our team at BBC after the Rove-bots accidentally sent them to a web domain owned by our friend John Wooden.
Here's what you need to know - and the Committee would have discovered, if only they'd asked:
1. 'Caging' voters is a crime, a go-to-jail felony. 2. Griffin wasn't "involved" in the caging, Ms. Goodling. Griffin, Rove's right-hand man (right-hand claw), was directing the illegal purge and challenge campaign. How do I know? It's in the email I got. Thanks. And it's posted above. 3. On December 7, 2006, the ragin', cagin' Griffin was named, on Rove's personal demand, US Attorney for Arkansas. Perpetrator became prosecutor.
The committee was perplexed about Monica's panicked admission and accusations about the caging list because the US press never covered it. That's because, as Griffin wrote to Goodling in yet another email (dated February 6 of this year, and posted here), their caging operation only made the news on BBC London: busted open, Griffin bitched, by that "British reporter," Greg Palast.
There's no pride in this. Our BBC team broke the story at the top of the nightly news everywhere on the planet - except the USA - only because America's news networks simply refused to cover this evidence of the electoral coup d'etat that chose our President in 2004.
And now, not bothering to understand the astonishing revelation in Goodling's confessional, they are missing the real story behind the firing of the US attorneys. It's not about removing prosecutors disloyal to Bush, it's about replacing those who refused to aid the theft of the vote in 2004 with those prepared to burgle it again in 2008.
Now that they have the keys, let's see if they can put them in the right door. The clock is ticking ladies and gents...
