  • The Editor Should have pulled Nice Guys

    This essay is nearly 6 months late and a total yawner. It is pointless to to analyze the oxymoron ''nice guys'' at this stage in the campaign. By definition, McCain and Obama are of course nice guys because they are not....a bitch.

  • 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.
