I can't believe you put three Dems and five 'Publicans in your Jan/Feb issue. You have ignored, by virtue of the tidbits about Kucinich and Gravel, the two very candidates that portray the MOJO philosophy. Been bought out lately, Murdoch maybe?
And stop blaming all the deaths on AllKinda...it's the creepy criminals running ALL the governments. Can we afford to continue to be so stupid and blind to what is really going on? Are you really doing your research or just playing at it?

Welcome to the Mainstream Media, Gareth!

Mojo was so eager to be part of the MSM it opened it's own Washington, DC bureau, like all the other MSM outlets have.
That's a 'must have' if you're going to stay in the hip pockets of the DC power-brokers.
You get the press releases hot off the printers, and you get invited to The BEST cocktail parties, where the Big Boys & Girls whisper their spin-of-the-day right in your ear.

True Reality Check. I am sorry to see it coming. We lost The Nation to intellectual meanderings, the Progressive to sleeze, thank goodness Hightower hasn't sold out. When are the true Liberal media people actually going to start eporting for MoJo and the like. It's no surprise to me that DC has such a power pull. Everyone thinks the DC people are in control...hahahahhahaha

I can't believe that she was assassinated by a 15-year-old! What a shock! This is a crazy part of the world, and we are going to have to reassess our handling of such situations. I have spoken with several people from the middle east, and they all say that she was assassinated because it would be a major blow to the Americans. What are we doing wrong?
