Fealty

The Caesar Factor
(2 comments) Conservatives have lied about the actions and motivations of progressives since the time of Athens and Rome. It is time to begin looking at history with a more jaundiced eye, and from the perspective of the Caesar Factor: that fear and jealousy motivate the conservatives far more than avarice and anger motivate progressives.

Rights, Powers, Privileges, and Responsibilities
The Declaration of Independence is a moral document, written not only to establish a new nation, but also to establish a basis for human rights and self-governance.

Fear and expediency are crippliing the body politic, and our gaovernments reputation both at home and abroad. We must rediscover the courage of our Founding Fathers, and take back our country before it is too late.

Stalingrad On The Euphrates

Polarization
(8 comments) It is time to stop the corpratists from playing us off one against the other. They started class warfare in 1981, and are on the verge of destroying the middle class. It is time for us find an answer between socialism and capitalism, and ram it down their throats.

First time I've been rejected by OpEdNews for the original of this article. And what is worse, I deserved it. Note to self: do not get overly involved in characterization.

Ave Atque Vale
The death of Gerald Ford has brought most of our nation into a state of mourning. We should always mourn the passing of every human being, but we must also remember that President Ford was responsible for many of our nation's current political problems.

Delusional State of the Nation
At the edge of a precipice, you can dig in your heels or jump. However, before you make your choice, make sure you are not deluding yourself about what is going on.
