Sunday, March 02, 2003 - 11:58 am Alabama strikes me as being a poor choice for anyone who needs to remain in the job market. Its “new economy” is the fourth worst in the nation. It showed the weakest personal income gain of all 50 states.

Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 03:32 pm UN Now Controls Most Of Alabama Henry Lamb's commentary at http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=32748 "Only a handful of the people who gathered at the Birmingham Hilton on April 8, 2003, knew that the objective of the meeting was to implement U.N. policy in Alabama. Most people in attendance thought the meeting was to solicit comments about a 'forest management plan' being developed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The comment period is open until July, at which time the plan will go into effect to standardize 'ecosystem management' in all national forests in Alabama... "Alabama is not alone. Virtually every state and every community has been targeted to undergo a similar transformation into what Science magazine described in 1993 as 'the transformation of America to an archipelago of human-inhabited islands surrounded by natural areas (p.1868).' "The transformation of America was designed by the IUCN in Switzerland, adopted by the United Nations, and is being systematically implemented in Alabama, and in every state, by bureaucrats and environmentalists who have no accountability at the ballot box. Elected officials, who are accountable at the ballot box, are allowing the transformation to go forward. They should be held accountable."

Tuesday, August 19, 2003 - 12:32 pm Alabamians Fear Chemical Disaster Read the full story at http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2003-08-17-anniston-usat_x.htm Excerpt: Anniston, Ala.-- Fear and distrust run deep here in "the pink zone." These are the neighborhoods closest to the Anniston Army Depot, where the Army began burning obsolete but deadly chemical weapons this month [Aug. 2003]. Toxins such as sarin and VX nerve gas — the very weapons of mass destruction that have been so much in the news lately — will be destroyed at the depot over the next seven years. If an accident occurred that sent a toxic cloud into the air, the pink zone would be Ground Zero . . . Many take it as a given that there will be an accident at the incinerator, where the Army will destroy 4.5 million pounds of rockets containing sarin, VX and nerve agents. (These are among chemicals the U.S. government said were being produced by Saddam Hussein and could be used by terrorists.) . . . People here say they know what it's like to feel betrayed. . . In Anniston and the cities and towns nearby, people talk a lot about "the plume" — an accidentally released toxic cloud — and how fast it might move over their homes and schools. The mood hovers between paranoia and imminent panic, giving the city the pending doom feel of an old Twilight Zone episode. http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2003-08-17-anniston-usat_x.htm
