    		 Talking Points Memo reporter Brian Beutler on politics of Obama's EPA decision
    Published on 2 Sep 2011 by Current Keith and Talking Points Memo reporter Brian Beutler discuss President Obama's decision to withdraw planned tough, new EPA standards to regulate ground-level ozone, despite this being within his power to do without Congress' approval. Beutler says that Obama's decision to stall smog regulation reform until 2013 and not at least implement the Bush administration's standards is a clear slap in the face to his constituents and to the interest groups that make up the Democratic party.

    		US Wasting Billions While Tripling No-Bid Contracts After Decade of Afghan, Iraq Wars
    Uploaded by democracynow on 2 Sep 2011 DemocracyNow.org - As the war in Afghanistan approaches its 10th anniversary, a pair of new reports reveal how the Pentagon has squandered tens of billions of dollars while tripling the amount of no-bid contracts. The bipartisan Commission on Wartime Contracting concludes that between $31 billion and $60 billion spent on projects in Iraq and Afghanistan over the last 10 years has been lost to waste and fraud. In Afghanistan, the commission found the United States is indirectly funding the Taliban as money diverted from U.S.-backed projects is paid out to militants to ensure safety. Meanwhile, the Pentagon's use of no-bid contracts has tripled since the United States was attacked on 9/11, in spite of promises to reform the controversial practice. A new investigative report from the Center for Public Integrity says no-bid spending has ballooned from $50 billion in 2003 to $140 billion in 2011. Watch Part 2 of 2: http://youtu.be/7awabwdOOk4 Democracy Now! speaks with Charles Tiefer, a member of the Commission on Wartime Contracting in Iraq and Afghanistan and a professor of government contracting at the University of Baltimore Law School; and with Sharon Weinberger of the Center for Public Integrity, author of the investigative series "Windfalls of War." "There are as many contractors in the war zone as there are soldiers. But we haven't adjusted our thinking for it, [and] we haven't adjusted our structure for it," Tiefer says.

    		Is BPA changing the Gene Code?
    Uploaded by TheBigPictureRT on 2 Sep 2011 Bisphenol A or BPA is a chemical that they body reacts to as if it were a synthetic estrogen. It's commonly used in polycarbonate plastic and resin-lined food and beverage containers here in the United States, where it's still legal - it's been outlawed in Europe. It can be found here in almost anything packaged in flexible soft plastic or lined with plastic - from baby bottles to lunch containers and even soda cans and energy drinks. But a new study shows pretty solidly that BPA can trigger hormone-responsive gene changes in people. The authors of the study have concluded that BPA is active in humans and that it can be linked biologically to hormone signaling and related disorders in humans and that includes things like diabetes, thyroid disease and obesity.

    		How the War Machine Works: Wikileaks war crime was reported in Iraq - not the US
    Uploaded by TheBigPictureRT on 2 Sep 2011 Raed Jarrar, Iraqi-American blogger and political analyst joins Thom Hartmann. So much for shock and awe - a new Wikileaks release details shock and horror in Iraq. One of the latest leaked state department cables - alleges that back during Bush's presidency in 2006 - U.S. troops executed at least 10 Iraqi civilians - including 5 children - and 4 women - and then called in an airstrike to destroy the evidence. At the time - Bush's military officials denied the incident. But as this Wikileaks release shows - a U.N. special investigator uncovered evidence to the contrary, noting that morgue reports showed that all victims were handcuffed and shot in the head execution style.
