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 ...

Makes Me Laugh -- Elites With Furrowed Brows AT LAST - -
So, the FDIC Chairman is a female children's book author from Massachusetts, who started her new job running security for our Nation's bank deposits since 2006? How fortunate for her. I am a Massachusetts/New Hampshire working guy going back to 1990, originally from the Midwest, with some college but no degree, and I have been ''getting ...

Sexual Hypocrisy, Law Enforcement & the InterNET
Thanks for a very interesting and thoughtful article that addressed current events, came up with new approaches, and put it all together neatly in one, entertaining article. My view on those folks who would employ our law enforcement authorities to charge and convict individual InterNET users, is somewhat different. I see these forceful, legal ...

I Liked Ike -- Now I Like Mike - HUCKABEE, that is
I liked everything I heard about Mike Huckabee, even before he started running in earnest for his Party's Nomination to be our next U.S. President. The more I learned about Mike Huckabee, the better I liked his candidacy. Further, he is a very well-spoken and persuasive guy, with that down-to-Earth Midwestern style I always liked about ...

Re: What difference will it make?
kgsbca: So the politicians should stay out of this, if they know what is good for the US economy. They probably won't, though, for if the company is acquired by a foreign owner, they will lose a valuable source of local campaign contributions, and we know that is the most important issue for politicians. No one yet seems to have noticed ...

Burma, Oil, & Neo Cons
Connecting the global crusade for control of oil and the faction within Washington called the Neo Cons is fairly simple today. Thus, there is no surprise that Anne Applebaum makes a case for intervention in Burma. She is an operative of the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). The AEI is the leading Neo Con think tank in Washington and includes ...

Re: Bill Richardson: Obama's Vice President
Bill Richardson ran for President on a shoestring and lost most impressively, with hardly any votes despite his ballyhooed resume and months long campaigning, here in New Hampshire. He reminds me of John Connolly more than anyone else, other than maybe Ross Perot. Then, he hesitates at Bill Clinton's blandishments before endorsing Obama, waiting ...

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 ...

I Blame America
That's right. I don't want American troops, or US ''advisors'', or America arms to go the Darfur rebels. I don't want UN sanctions to cripple Sudan like they killed Iraq for 12 years after '91. I want America to get the Hell out. Who runs Sudan? General Omar Bashir. Who is he? He is a graduate and close ally of the Egyptian regime. He was ...

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. Why did the CIA feel threatened by this? Because I revealed how they smuggled cocaine into the US using a front company called ''Skyway Communications''. ...
