An in-depth look at the Hutton commission cover-up with BBC
reporter and best-selling author Greg Palast, also, the case
of civil rights activist and attorney Lynne Stewart, now facing
forty five years on trumped-up terrorism charges;
5:01 PM PST
Dennis interviews Civil Rights Activist Lynne Stewart. Lynne
Stewart has been under attack by the Federal Government since
the attack on 9/11. Stewart faces charges of terrorism for
her role as a legal counsel for the imprisoned blind sick
Egyptian cleric Omar Abdel Rahman. Stewart is facing 45 years
in prison for these trumped up terrorism charges. Last year
Stewart thought she was out of the woods, when two similar
charges were dismissed, but the Feds aren't willing to let
go she was recently reindicted. Does her case mean that anyone
can be arrested at any time for any reason? No, Stewart says
"It means, you won't have a lawyer to call. Your lawyer
may not be working for you; your lawyer may be working for
those who prosecute you." LynneStewart.org

5:20 PM PST
Dennis interviews BBC reporter and journalist Greg Palast.
They discuss how the Hutton Report that supposedly exonerates
Blair and Bush actually just 'shoots the messenger', in this
case the BBC. David Kelly's report as the number one UNSCOM
inspector is equally damaging to both Blair and Bush, both
guilty of lying. While BBC report Andrew Gilligan may not
have taped his sources, many other BBC reporters including
Palast did record Kelly's comments for the record.

Music Break: Double Bush Blues - What A Case of Deja Vu
5:43 PM PST
Greg Palast Investigative Journalist on The Stealing of the
2000 Election. Why we as a people won't 'Get Over It'. Greg
digs in depth on how the 2000 election was stolen. Slimy details
on the supposed 57,000 felons excluded from voting in Florida.
'Unfortunate' for democracy that 92% were actually legally
clear to vote. How 500+ from that list had records of convictions,
in the future! 2004 elections will make the corrupt manipulations
of 2000 look like a cake walk of course as the neo-coop and
their cronies figure new ways to corrupt what used to be our
democratic republic.
