 The Free Press -- Independent News Media - Election Issues
Mother Jones correctly points out that seven times the number of votes by which Bush took Ohio were cast on Republican-controlled machines.
Mother Jones also discounts the fact that a phony Homeland Security alert in Warren County landed the vote count in an unauthorized warehouse rather than the official secure location, and that reporters were barred from the vote count.
The irony of this is that the same issue of Mother Jones leads off with a dead-on story about Ohio and national Democrats who are sabotaging the campaign of the aggressively electable Paul Hackett for a key US Senate seat.

 Behind the Headlines
William Saletan’s “Humanitarian Hawks,” an ode to the virtues of the Kosovo war, manages to cram so many lies and evasions into such a small space that surely it is a scientific as well as a literary and ideological wonder.
The magazine does not mention his affiliation with the Center for National Security Studies, a Washington thinktank established by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Fund for Peace in 1974, ostensibly devoted to "civil liberties" and opposing secrecy, and which later served as the incubator of liberal interventionism.
Why do they continue to support a magazine that has betrayed the antiwar tradition personified by the original Mother Jones, the Commie labor organizer whose name they have appropriated: Saletan's ode to war would have sickened her.

 Subscriber writes to Mother Jones Magazine about Scientology Vultures
I am a subscriber to Mother Jones and have been for some time.
I believe that this advertisement is a disgrace to the otherwise quality advertisers in Mother Jones, and the fact that it does not disclose its true connection to Scientology places innocent people at risk at being manipulated by what is largely believed to be a mind control cult.
I also suggest that a disclaimer be placed in the next issue regarding the deceptive nature of this ad, and alongside any future advertisement from this organization.

Mother Jones is a trashy magazine of the most-radical and least-rational leftists in the United States.
Mother Jones demonstrated how low it could set its standards for investigative journalism when it hired Newsweek reporter Joshua Hammer to surf the web and write a 7000-word feature story on Rachel Corrie and the International Solidarity Movement (''The Death of Rachel Corrie,'' Sept/Oct 2003).

Over 18,000 scientists have signed a petition stating there is “no convincing scientific evidence” that greenhouse gases are causing “catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate.” Moreover, the Science magazine article so often cited in support of this supposed consensus has been debunked by several expert analysts.
As to climate change, it isn’t even clear yet “whether mankind is the perpetrator, Mother Nature is an accomplice, or vice versa,” notes University of Alabama Professor Roy Spencer, a leading authority on satellite measurements of global temperatures.
