Arrogance and Insolence in the Age of Empire SHARE
...Our president's bipolarity has now been unequivocally diagnosed: arrogance towards the world, and insolence towards his own countrymen. No second-guessing any more...

Upcoming Bipartisan Crime Against Peace SHARE
...Benchmarks, invalid progress reports, passing on the blame to Maliki and his corrupt government, lying assertions of how things are improving in Iraq, the non-stop shell game White House & Congress are playing with us...O what fools we're made out to be! Is it so difficult to see? The US is in Iraq for the duration, and that means indefinitely...

Slavery Revisited: The Military Draft SHARE
...This idea is not new; periodically someone comes up with the idea that, with the U.S. fighting two wars, there is insufficient human cannon fodder to keep them going and prepare for Mr. Bush's next potential imperialistic misadventure. But, the draft is not now and never will be the answer, whether in Iraq, Afghanistan or anywhere else...

Protect America Act: Cheetah for Tyranny SHARE
...Congress' criminal majority has once again raped the Constitution, this time with the PAA. Thank you, Congress, for showing us this superior mode of despotic governance. Thank you, Democrats, for confirming that you are a pack of power-mongering fascists every bit equal to the Republicans...

Private Mercenary Armies: A Looming Threat to Freedom SHARE
...There are over 100,000 private contract personnel in Iraq today and most of them are replacing what in the past has been tasks handled by Army personnel. So what you ask is wrong with hiring non-military men and women to help the soldiers? You might want to consider these few tidbits...

McPolitics and America's political palate SHARE
...Unlike McDonald's franchises which have found success in much of the world, McPolitics is probably reserved for the American political palate and no one else. One doubts that it meets enough criteria for export, even if aided by heavy subsidies from both the US State Department and the imperial peacekeepers at the Pentagon...

Christians, Hindus, and the American Challenge SHARE
...If you support religious freedom then you must grant the same freedoms to other religions. Therefore, the Senate should next open with a Wiccan prayer, a chant to Zeus, a page from the Tao Te Ching, a paragraph from the Quran, and so on. But fundamentalists don't want this. Instead they seek the transformation of America into Iran...

Impeachment as Political Solution to Iraq War SHARE
...Improperly framing Iraq as a war benefits those responsible for it and obscures the clearest path to a saner future. If instead Iraq was framed as the armed assault that it was (billed as "Shock and Awe"), there is a logical, expedient political solution at our disposal - impeachment...

Last Waltz on the Titanic SHARE
...James Howard Kunstler's book, The Long Emergency, makes it clear that our illusionary world of comfort and relative luxury is about to be shattered. America, under its present leadership, is like the Roman empire-growing weak from luxury, sloth & inflation on the inside, & assailed by a tough, fanatical adversary on our frontiers...

Contempt for the Bottom Feeders in D.C. SHARE
...As a taxpayer and a voter, I want to know what happened. I want to know what happened to my Constitution, which you swore to protect and defend, not shred and discard. It is NOT just a g-d piece of paper. It is what distinguishes the United States of America...

You are Still Destroying America. SHARE
...The problem in America is extremism. The extremists will never be satisfied of course, but they have no business at this table anyway. Their next sip of icy cold Koolaid is being served up by the White House chefs, as the concept of "We the People" is burned quietly in the background...

In Remembrance of Jonathan SHARE
...Sadly, he died on July 26, 2003 outside Baghdad, Iraq, when the convoy he was riding in was attacked with rocket-propelled grenades. Remember Jonathan for his goodness; he was the opposite of his deceivers. Jonathan died defending what he believed to be his duty. His deceivers wouldn't even be kind to his mother's sacrifice...

Laws of War: Iraq SHARE
...Nowhere in the Constitution is any branch of government given the power and the option of giving away a power and function specifically assigned to that branch in the Constitution. To do so is 1) unimaginable in the context of constitutional law, and 2) a violation of our Constitution's separation of powers...

Obama's trip to the confessional SHARE
...It's sacred dogma to accept that only the U.S. is enlightened to know which nations - or their leaders - are renegade angels, and which have the true vision of God. Willingness by an American president to break bread with people like Castro, Chavez, Ahmadinejad, Kim Jong II, al-Assad, is verboten until approved by the Pentagon...

The Consequences of Staying in Iraq SHARE
...Much is said daily about the consequences of getting out of Iraq. But there is little media attention about the consequences of staying. The media is filled with what will happen if we leave - chaos, civil war, terrorists will come over here, and on and on. But if we stay, I think we're very likely to suffer a continuation of much the same...

You are Destroying America. Yes, You. SHARE
...Terrorism will never destroy America. It will come from within. From fear-addicts who have raped the U.S. so much that they should be drawn up on charges of treason. The cowards who want a nanny state to coddle them, hug them, and ultimately contain them in a little crib with bars and monitors and cameras...

The Value of Financial Viability SHARE
...A healthy economy is a Financially Balanced Economy. Neither Business nor Government can thrive, long term, operating in an environment that doesn't have financial balance. Our Society is currently out of balance...

No Pork, No Side Issues and No Riders! SHARE
...The three greatest threats to the Constitution are the Executive, the Legislative, and Judicial Branches. All of the things that We the People have worked for, fought for, and died for, are being destroyed by politicians who neglect their oath of office and trample upon the Constitution every day! The Read the Bills Act seeks to end this...

A Letter to My Son Regarding the Problem of War SHARE
...All war will end when young people tell their leaders that they will no longer go to war, that they will no longer continue to kill, that if war is to continue it must be fought by those who make the decisions to go to war!

Candidate Hillary Does Iraq SHARE
...Hillary believes that "the President should abandon his escalation of the war." She chooses not to say "his" war because it could not have been "his" war without the help of people like "her."
