Black Caucus is going to continue talking about Haiti..
They've been on CSPAN at night informing the people of what happened,who, how, etc. You can probably get it on CSPAN in the achieves.

Apparently machines guns, armor, etc. came from the Dominican Republic...sold to them by us (they're our weapons). If they didn't have these arms it would have been a piece of cake to go in there and get order. Now, American soldiers and civilians are at risk.

Rep. John Conyers says, "American democracy is a risk in Haiti."

That is an understatement. It's the formation of the Americas Union that is without democracy. It's no longer...NAFTA, WTO, etc. It's the Americas (FTAA) trade and government fascist union. Got it?

3. Here's my guess..
They are the only ones with GUTS.. Maybe it's because they are less "interesting" to the lobbyists who throw money around in congress. I am sure that they are not paupers, but most of them represent a lot of really poor people.. Poor people have no power, and are less attractive to lobbyists..

In other words, I think they are legislators because they are true public servants...and a lot of the "others" are public servants in order to serve themselves..
