Hold Both Parties Responsible for Bankrupting the USA The foremost of these facts is that we can no longer permit the Federal government to spent 53% of our taxable revenue for military spending, Homeland Security, and the many intelligence agencies that in a large part duplicate each other's work. 53 cents out of every taxable dollar goes to these endeavors. This takes away from fixing our crumbling infrastructure, educating our young people and paying off our debt.

An Article About Sanity What I didn't like about Bernie Sanders, was the fact that he never mentioned cutting the defense budget and using that money to finance all the things he espoused during his campaign. To me, he still represented the Washington that I have come to know and despise.

Ashamed to Be An American? I believe that the Occupy Movement should re-emerge. This country is no longer ours. It's being run by people that could well be sociopaths. I'm ashamed to be an American. I have my passport and I'm ready to bolt. Things are getting out of hand here in America and I feel that I should add my voice of dissent.

American Hegemony: The Final Outcome Our government should be concerned with the people it governs. We should protect our nation. That doesn't mean that we have the right to invade our citizen's personal freedoms and to subject our citizen's to unwarranted searches and seizures because of their political or religious beliefs.

America is a Dictatorship and I Can't Stop It This isn't a president this is a dictator. In fact, the whole country is fed up with both Congress, the executive branch, and the judiciary. That is our entire federal government as laid out by our Constitution.

Blowback is a b*tch Since 9/11 we have vilified Muslims. We have waged war in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Sudan, Somalia and now in Syria. It isn't just the United States, France was one of the countries that provided aircraft to bomb Libya and sent their Army into Mali. It seems like it is a free for all in the Middle East and Muslim Africa. If you are Muslim, you are a target.

Revolution is A Legitimate Option Unless this government is willing to come to terms and look for other ways out of this financial crisis such as stopping these wars of aggression and holding corporations to the same standard it holds its citizens insofar as taxation, I believe that the government is not looking out for the welfare of the people. We have a right to act accordingly.

The Petraeus Odyssey"So Far" Now, this morning we learn that Gen. John Allen, the top American commander in Afghanistan, was under investigation for having sent x-rated e-mails to Jill Kelly, the volunteer liaison person for the Tampa-McDill Area, and the same person that originally went to the FBI that launched this entire investigation. General Allen was in line to become Supreme Allied Commander Europe.

Obama, Wake Up! If I woke up one morning and found that I was the President, after I accepted that fact, maybe if I believed I was dreaming and just decided to go along with this particular dream, these are some of the things I would do.

Western Journalists Fail to Report the Facts about Libya Objectively How often are we going to allow the American military to act as the world's policemen? In the long run, we stand to gain nothing from interfering in the politics of Libya. This will only turn out to be another in a long list of military attacks on sovereign nations.

The Dark Side of America The people in politics and the media like to call it "spin". That's another way to say propaganda without offending anyone's sensibilities. They call torture "enhanced interrogation". They call those who fight against Western domination and imperialism "insurgents". When they resort to violence against out interests they are called "terrorists". When they act on our behalf they are called "freedom fighters".

Untruths in the Media? Really? I'm glad that everyone is finally waking up to the fact that we hear things there just not true coming from social media. My wish is that people would start talking about how we hear things that are also not true coming from all media and in reality, also coming from our own government.

The People of Wisconsin Need to Trust Their Governor and the Federal Government For some unexplainable reason, many people on the planet absolutely hate us. I'm sure that it is all a mistake. Once people from other nations get to know us, they usually end up loving us, even asking America to build military bases on their soil to protect their citizens the way we protect our own. In fact we have 724 military bases in other nations:

Think the Occupy movement is Dead? Think Again. Today we watched as Occupy movements in Oakland and New York and many other cities that have Occupy groups finally moved on the encampments. Most of these cities had their Mayors participate in a conference call on Tuesday. They seem to have come up with a unified response to the Occupy Movement. All I can say is that these measures are pointless.

What are We Doing in Syria to Begin With? As a former recruiter for the United States Army, I could not in good conscience enlist young Americans to fight overseas in wars that they don't understand.

President Trump: Obey the Constitution! spent six years in Korea and I know what I'm talking about. North Korea is a pariah state and needs to come to the table and talk civilly to the South Koreans and to America. Saber rattling is not the way to go on this. I understand that we don't want North Korea to have nuclear missiles that can destroy bases in Japan and eventually they will be able to hit our West Coast. You must offer the North Koreans a way out of this,

We Need an Alternative to the Democrats and the GOP I've been thinking of late about how to break free of the influence of that the corporations have on American politics. I believe that one must understand the complexities that plague this issue. Corporations have picked up First Amendment rights and are considered "people" by the courts.

Is This the Beginning of The Second American Revolution? There are movements in other States in support of Wisconsin. Union members that aren't even members of the public sector are supporting the demands of the public employees in Madison. There is a good reason for this. After the public sector's right for collective bargaining is trashed, the Republican's will be coming after the trade unions.

"Winning" a Nuclear War Our government has been talking about "limited nuclear war" for so long now that I believe that they have fallen for their own rhetoric. Who will guarantee that "just enough" nukes will rain down on Iran and win this "all-important war" that could sacrifice the human race?

A Nation Gone Blind States want to bring about regime change? What exactly is Iran doing? Give us the details of what they are doing and why they are doing it. All we hear is how Iran is evil and that they might make nuclear weapons. Here's the thing, India has nuclear weapons, Pakistan has nuclear weapons, Israel won't say if they have nuclear weapons are not but we know they do, and yet the United States has turned a blind eye to all of this
