  • Do we have any laws in this country?

    How is it possible that the President can do all the things we have learned he can do without any Congressional restraint? Congress passes a law, and the President adds a note at the bottom when he signs it that serves to make the law do the opposite of what Congress intended. Congress authorizes billions of dollars to buy up mortgage securities ...

    I agree with the author. The campaign is placing too much emphasis on Israel.. They are not the problem. The economic meltdown is.

  • Serious business

    The economy is in a meltdown and Congress can't work over the weekend? If there's a war they can't act till after the holiday? Not only Bush will be gone but he should be taking his Republican Congressional cohort with him.

    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.

  • Democrats in Congress Failed Us All 8 Years

    The Democrats and Democratic Party failed to stand up for what is right for the entire eight years of the Bush / Cheney White House misrule. They gave away our American two-party system; they gave away majority rule; they gave away our civil rights and bill of rights and civil liberties; they gave away the constitutional authority of the ...

  • Why I'm an American in Exile...

    On June 13th, 2007, I received a death threat from someone claiming to be a member of the US Intelligence community. What was my ''crime''? I blew the whistle on the election fraud of 2004.
