p1 Please boycott Current if you respect Freedom Of Speech and Freedom of being a press person

I am a fallen member of Current because my articles got too big and so I have seen that current no longer wants free speech but they don't want to get protested and so they do this censorship in a sneaky and in a debunking way of having created accounts and multiple personalities to make the negative comments look good while censoring and taking down good comments if they (controversial and anti establishment articles) get too big, thats when their staff start attacking and threatening people and putting a bunch of negative comments that others don't wish to make their comments because of all the negative comments while their ranks on current categories go way down and if they add it to other categories they get in trouble for that too, and so if they start mass emailing people as another attempt to create debate their accounts disappear even though they are not advertising a website but bringing out the truth according to the rights to freedom of speech and freedom of press which is being suppressed by the private sector (bailout money given to them and as a return they suppress people talking against the government, make them look bad, or make them look crazy by sending them loads of death threats and nasty messages to rally those people up so they start cussing and attacking people in the articles comments thus they broke current rules and can have their account terminated. Current is not going after anybody who slanders and attacks people because those people are current staff using secondary accounts which I personally seen.), and private investors that run current. Also even if na article gets big and doesn't get censored they usually send out a news article that would ruin them such as anyone against the true facts of the healthcare bill looking like they are working with the insurance companies even though they don't. Every Article that truthfully makes Obama look bad thenh other articles get pushed up making those people look bad or make them look like they are paid shills which is not true. Under Bushs evil rule we are on the verge of a (violent and non violent) revolution against the government and we were gonna fight under Bush but now with Obama people are sitting and doing nothing even though theres evidence that hes making the same policies as Bush but more sneakier because hes a political puppet for the private sector, his money is being used for porn film companies, and now the government owns and runs General Motors. Thats communism when the government starts owning businesses and wants to control every aspect of our lives, it's not socialism what Obama is doing it is pure communism. When ACORN members of the union are beating up anti obama protesters, when the whitehouse wants you to report anybody against healthcare to flag@whitehouse.gov, when they want you reporting your neighbors, and Obama is against anyone against him that is communism when people must be afarid to speak out against the way the system is working or the new proposals for the system which may have negative consequences or may not work. Please fight communism by boycotting Current!

I know Current is a private site and what they do and say goes which I why I am asking you to BoyCott current so we can restore freedom of speech and put an end to Currents unfair censorship gaming methods.

Beside whats wrong with the Constitution, thats why we have laws to obey in the first place, if we have to obey the laws the government pass but we can't protest out of fear of arrests, people reporting you, flagging you, and that the secret service and armed police will arrest you then why should we obey the law either because then the law is no more it is pure corruption that leads to dictatorships and supporting terrorism attackers. If people don't care about the constitution there will be more gangbangers, bloodshed, and violence will rise in america I know it as a fact, and there will be more gunman shootings and rebel soldiers in America.I am a fallen member of Current because my articles got too big and so I have seen... more

Chevron "won't pay" Ecuador lawsuit

As Largest Environmental Judgment on Record Looms, the Oil Company Reassures Shareholders It Won't Pay

Chevron Corp. (CVS), which expects to be on the losing end of a long-running environmental lawsuit in Ecuador, is turning its attention to fighting the expected multibillion-dollar verdict in the U.S.

The plaintiffs in the case, residents of Ecuador's oil-producing Amazonian rainforest, are seeking to hold Chevron responsible for environmental contamination they say was caused by Texaco, which operated in Ecuador from 1964 to 1990 and was bought by Chevron in 2001. An expert appointed by the Ecuadorian court has recommended the judge award the plaintiffs $27 billion in damages from Chevron, which would be the biggest environmental judgment against an oil company to date.

Chevron denies the allegations, arguing that Texaco's operations in Ecuador met local and international standards, that a $40 million cleanup effort in the 1990s resolved any environmental liability the company had there, and that any remaining problems are the responsibility of Petroecuador, the state-run oil company that took over Texaco's operations.

The stakes are high. Damages of $27 billion would represent roughly a tenth of the company's 2008 revenue, and a record-setting judgment could tarnish Chevron's image at a time when it has been trying to establish itself as environmentally friendly.

Chevron says it has given up the prospect of winning the case because the Ecuadorian court system is heavily influenced by President Rafael Correa, who has publicly sided with the plaintiffs. The company says it plans to appeal the case in Ecuador, but has little hope of prevailing. Both sides expect a ruling in the case later this year.

Chevron itself has never operated in Ecuador, and Texaco pulled out in 1992, leaving behind almost no assets for the court to seize in case of a judgment against the company. Therefore the plaintiffs will need to try to enforce any ruling in a country where Chevron does have assets, most likely the U.S.

Chevron has been reassuring shareholders that it doesn't expect to be forced to pay any judgment imposed by Ecuador.

"We're not paying and we're going to fight this for years if not decades into the future," Chevron spokesman Don Campbell said in an interview.

To prevent enforcement of a potential judgment in the U.S., Chevron will likely need to convince a U.S. judge it didn't get a fair trial in Ecuador -- something legal experts say won't be easy. "It's going to have to be pretty conclusive evidence," said Ralph Steinhardt, a law professor at George Washington University.

Complicating the matter for Chevron, after the plaintiffs originally sued Texaco in the U.S., Texaco convinced a U.S. court that the case should be heard in Ecuador, praising Ecuador's judicial system in court filings.As Largest Environmental Judgment on Record Looms, the Oil Company Reassures... more
