Enron Movie Opens in San Diego April 29
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

Alex Gibney's new documentary "Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room" opens in San Diego April 29 at the Landmark Theatres, 5th and University in Hillcrest. Made by the co-director of the liberal film "The Trials of Henry Kissinger," the Enron movie at times hints at a broader critique of capitalism but at other times buys into the pro-capitalist defense of Enron as a "bad apple" in a basically sound market system. The film also contrasts the testosterone-driven male-chauvinist culture of Enron with the heroism of three women — two within the company and one a journalist for Fortune magazine — who blew the whistle on it.

A Rising Movement Against The MinuteMen and the Border
lotus for sd indymedia,

UPDATE 4/5/2005 9:00AM - Press conference today and National Days of Action to stop REAL ID

What better place than Tombstone, Arizona, where gun-toting actors dressed like sheriffs and outlaws keep the nostalgia of the Wild West alive, to be the focal point of yet another vigilante convergence. The Minuteman Project, as it is called, is being organized by two of southern Arizona's most notorious and outspoken border vigilantes: Chris Simcox and Jim Gilchrist. Their plan is to place "observers" every quarter mile along a 20-mile stretch of border from Douglas to the San Pedro River during the month of April.

However, their actions will not go unopposed. Legal observers are being trained to watch over and document the Minutemen. Counter protests, vigils and other border activities are also planned to take place throughout April. ( April Unity Events )

In San Diego and Tijuana, on April 2nd, 2005, numerous organizations including the Border Angels, FIST ( Fight Imperialism, Stand Together), the Brown Berets, Code Pink, and the ORGANIC collective held a march and a rally at the US/Mexico border, the site of the construction of the Triple Border Fence. This rally was against HR 418, against the Triple Border Fence and against the Minutemen. Between 50 and 75 people were in attendance for the 1.5 mile march, followed by a rally on both sides of the fence. In addition, plans for borderHack 2.005 were announced for this summer.

As the MinuteMen project in Arizona takes the media spotlight, Congress is quietly trying to roll back 30 years of environmental regulations and create a buffer zone of martial law along the borders of the US. HR 418 recently passed in the House and is currently being fast tracked through the Senate. This law would completely exempt any project to build fences or roads in the region of the borders of the US from all environmental laws. This would include the border with Canada as well as the border with Mexico.

Differences Between Republicans and Democrats
Mark Gabrish Conlan/Zenger’s Newsmagazine,

State Senator Joe Dunn (D-Orange County) spoke to the predominantly Queer San Diego Democratic Club March 24 and gave an impassioned analysis and call to action centering around the differences between the Democratic and Republican parties. He argued that the Democrats have historically stood for justice and economic independence, while the Republicans have stood for individual liberty and corporate dominance. Dunn said a second American revolution — a struggle likely to take decades — is needed to reverse the current Republican dominance and win back for Americans their political, religious and economic independence.
