Legal Foot Dragging Denial of Inevitable by Senate Republicn
I find the months long and continuing saga of Senate Republicans and former incumbent Norm Coleman of Minnesota, in denying a rightful U.S. Senate seat to Al Franken, both insulting and undemocratic.

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. 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''. ...
