  TUESDAY 12 JUNE 6:30 PM Central Time


SUSAN ABULHAWA:
"I'm six and seven and up to eleven,
Then I'm an adult in an Israeli court.
My hands tied behind my back
He comes to me with a punch and a sack.
He covers my head with a hood of Zionist stench
My belly is tough, it will not flinch.
The noise is loud and pierces my brain.
My pathetic shirt hangs proud with a fresh blood stain.
My poor mother is worried sick, I'm sure.
She burried my brother before me. She will endure.
And my dad too, depression got him in the end
With no home, no land, no olive trees to tend.
I'm in here day after day,
Or is it months or even years, I no longer comprehend.
The noise is too loud and I can feel the shroud.
He beats me again today then its another's turn to play.
I'm broken now, but I'll not confess.
I'll leave my body, let those murdering bastards clean up the mess.
A few more thoughts before I go I am human. This you must know.
You'd never know it `cause I'm tough as the rocks I throw.
I had hoped to grow a mustache so fine.
Maybe marry Muna. I'd be hers and she'd be mine.
Maybe be a father, our children free in Palestine."


Second Hour
On May 9, 2007 George Bush signed the national security presidential directive giving himself power over all three branches of government. Join us with Jerome Corsi to learn more. We are not kidding folks, its not a joke.
TUESDAY 12 JUNE 7:30 PM Central Time 

JEROME CORSI:

"President Bush, without so much as issuing a press statement, on May 9 signed a directive that granted near dictatorial powers to the office of the president in the event of a national emergency declared by the president."

"The directive loosely defines "catastrophic emergency" as "any incident, regardless of location, that results in extraordinary levels of mass casualties, damage, or disruption severely affecting the U.S. population, infrastructure, environment, economy, or government functions.""
