This could also be tactical
Two of the Bush administration's main advantages in their assault on the constitution are that it takes so long for cases to get resolved in our court system and the Courts, particularly the Supreme Court, have never spoken on many of these issues before. The Court has never defined the extent of the states secret privilege and never looked at ...

How does a democrat tick?
Democrats are into politics for the sole purpose of obscuring the definition of morality, and passing subsequent laws that make morality illegal in the United States. Democrats want all lights to be green and let everyone fend for themselves at the intersections. Because of the irresponsible and inconsiderate lifestyle of this misrepresentation ...

The Big Bailout...Ha!
There is no need for a bailout of the bank when we can bail them out through tax payer spending...heres how: America has fought hard to become an independent nation and a leader in innovation, so how can we fix our current economic downtrend efficiently?

Gather them all in the same room
''Of course, Barack Obama is unlikely to gather all the advice-lending pundits, journalists, bloggers, party bigwigs, elected officials, and campaign staffers into the same room for a powwow. Not that anyone's advising him to do that.'' That is the way to make it work. The dubya way was to listen to one message and trash the International rule ...

Mr. Webster describes profession as the act of taking the vows of a religious community, or: an act of openly declaring or publicly claiming a belief or faith: an avowed religious faith a: a ...

Amazing that Americans Have This Discussion
Having studied American civics in grade school and high school, and having my doubts that Bush Cheney or anyone else in our current White House similarly learned about American history, traditions, institutions and law, it continually amazes me that this Bush Cheney Presidency has run riot so egregiously. Congress? Lay down. The Courts? Lay ...

What Is He Doing?
I am so upset with not only Barak Obama but all the Democrats. First let me say, I am a Democrat. Not because I believe in socialism but because I hate the politics of oil, corporate welfare, and, let's face it, the Republicans have not shown themselves to be the fiscally conservative party most argue them to be. Additionally, I hate the war, ...

Franken on the Hill
Before we rebuild another country we need to clean our own house. By that I mean send career politicians packing, rather they be republican, democrat or an independent. Sorry this means Ted Kennedy needs to go home and fight his cancer and Oklahoma's Istook needs to return to mopping floors at the radio station. There could be worse things to ...
