“NDAA ! So we no longer get to state our case to the judge or make a phone call before being locked up forever. this is wrong. not that our u.s. trials are fair anyway….but it’s still rotten. everyone should at least have the right to be screwed over by the U.S. legal system and let their family know they’ll be in jail ! Obama! Your’e doing a great job other than letting BP get away with poisoning our food chain, but this is unforgivable. Did they have a gun to your head or did you really just sell us downstream ? - Lady Miss Kier

WASHINGTON — Indefinite military detention of Americans became the law of the land Saturday, as President Barack Obama signed a defense bill that codified that authority, even as he said he would not use it.
The National Defense Authorization Act states how the military is to be funded, but also includes a number of controversial provisions on arresting and holding suspected terrorists, which at first drove Obama to threaten a veto.
He retreated from that threat after Congress added provisions that took the ultimate authority to detain suspects from the military’s hands and gave it to the president.
Still, the signing on New Year’s Eve as few people were paying attention angered civil liberties advocates, who argue that the law for the first time spells out certain measures that have not actually been tested all the way to the Supreme Court, including the possibility of detaining citizens in military custody without trial for as long as there is a war on terror.
“The statute is particularly dangerous because it has no temporal or geographic limitations, and can be used by this and future presidents to militarily detain people captured far from any battlefield,” Romero added. “The ACLU will fight worldwide detention authority wherever we can, be it in court, in Congress or internationally.” read more below….

Belita Woods on vocals here - you might know her from P-funk. I often play the Sylvestor version too but as this version came first- it might be the actual first “high energy ” song ever recorded. send a prayer to Bolita- she’s had a rough year but is on the healthy rebound and performing again in Detroit. Let’s send some love back her way…for all she has given us. The band- brainstorm!!! - Lady Miss Kier

when my chin itches I know i’m about to get a cold, but when my feet itch ..i know that i cant contain my body and HAVE to get up and dance …which is what happened at BLACK VELVET’s show , musically directed by Victor Jones ( who has drummed for Stan Getz, Winton Marsilis, sax player Rashaan Roland Kirk and on and on until the break of Dawn silva ) . tighty tight tight band…I got on up, I got loose, i did the poporn ,the boogaloooo,funky four corners, the penguin, but mostly my own repetoire of abstract dance moves feeling like a Jackson pollack painting, all the while Black Velvet was doing splits, drops, and moves that could wear down the souls of a brand new pair of shoes in ONE night. big thanks!- Lady Miss Kier

1989! benefit
landing in Moscow on the day of the 100,000 + peaceful demonstration against vote rigging was a thrill & huge uplift. Since I was scheduled for a press conference before my performance , i was happy to congradulate and encourage the people who came out on the coldest snowiest day of the year to let Vladimere Putin know they believe the Dec 4th elections were rigged. I was able to remind them what happened to our country & therfor the entire global economy failing the poor due to Bush STEALING 2 elections ( Bush , and his father along with Bill Clinton deregulated the laws protecting us from Banksters passed after the last great U.S. depression of 1929 to protect us 99% ) and then Bush used propaghanda to make our demonstrations against his illegal invasion of Iran invisable in the lamestream press . ” You must pay attention to who’s counting the votes- that’s the only way we were able to get Obama in office- because after 2 rigged/ stolen U.S. elections, people woke up and paid attention and made sure their votes were counted - some of us brought video cameras to record our democracy awarely.- what a great demonstration to witness and it made my X-mas unforgettable-Viva la power of the people - Lady Kier www.ladykier.com

“what is wrong with a country ,when we can get arrested for feeding the homeless twice a week in the park ? remember all the homeless vietnam vets in the 80’s flooding our streets in most cities , begging from wheelchairs ? we know the govt. isn’t going to feed the iraq war veterans coming home ,whom 1 in 3 may end up homeless for lack of mental healthcare. This has been happening for years in the U.S and it’s time the tables turn. I can see them turning because there’s no food on them- Lady Kier www.ladykier.com”
