The United States has lost its moral authority When I hear President Bush tell Russia "Enough is enough" when it comes to their illegal invasion of Georgia, I am left asking; What moral authority gives this man whose own illegal invasion of Iraq the audacity to call upon Russia to stand down? Do I wish that Russia would stand down? Absolutely. The taking of innocent lives is never okay.

As NY elected officials propose to help aid those with low-cost oil, CITGO has already done it Yes, I called the office of Senator Kevin Parker along with my own State Senator Ken LaValle as well as my State Assembly Member, Marc Alessi. I actually think I took those that I spoke to at their offices by surprise with my solution. It was like they had never heard of such a solution. Or scratched their heads that a fellow New Yorker actually had a solution.

The Declaration of Independence We came to be because brave patriots sacrificed their lives, spilt their blood to form a more perfect union. Their quest was freedom, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for 'we the people'. We owe it to their memories to live up to the spirit of their words that have carried us through the darkest of times.

My hat's off to all obituary writers...In reaction to my Tim Russert piece To those obit reporters, you are doing some of the best work that is out there. You are celebrating a person's life for those left behind instead of tearing them down in front of all of us. My hat's off to you.

Tim Russert Remembered: Who saw telling the story as a duty to the American people The next generation of journalists should all aspire and desire to be a Tim Russert, a Peter Jennings, an Edward R. Murrow and the countless others who knew in their hearts that telling the story was a duty to their fellow Americans.

Elliot Spitzer forced Alan Hevesi to resign and he must do the same I am calling upon every single Democratic leader demanding that Spitzer resign so that we as a state can heal. I am calling upon them to do so since we have bigger problems to solve such as our $5 billion dollar budget deficit that affects each and every New Yorker. While many New Yorkers suffer, Eliot Spitzer's libido did not suffer.

A letter sent to DNC Chair, Howard Dean on behalf of Gravel and Kucinich We the people deserve to hear from candidates like former Senator Mike Gravel and Congressman Dennis Kucinich. Our founders would be ashamed not only at you, your party, the Republican Party, but they would be spinning in their graves seeing a media abridge free speech.

Health insurance brings peace of mind: Those without live in terror Every citizen of this country deserves quality health insurance. But, the sad and angering fact is that these politicians do not see it as we do. With the snap of a finger, you may be the next to go without health insurance. Do you feel the terror yet?

Where are Hillary Clinton's tears for our soldiers and innocent Iraqis? This column is dedicated to all of our soldiers who have lost their lives in Iraq and who have come home maimed. This column is also dedicated to the countless innocent Iraqis who have been killed at the hands of the United States government.

Martin Tankleff: Thanked supporters for "Making his fight, their fight" In my opinion true justice for those guilty while protecting those who may be innocent is life in prison without the possibility of parole. This way the defense team working on behalf of those innocent have time to save that defendant's life and those guilty will spend the rest of their lives in prison which I feel is a fate worse than death itself.

Death of democracy at the hands of party elites and the mainstream media To close out this piece what we have all witnessed in recent years is the true death of our democracy at the hands of both the Republican Party and the Democratic Party. We have equally witnessed it coming from the mainstream media.

Heaven came to us all through Yousiff: A Christmas message As I was trying to think of a Christmas theme to write about this year, my involvement in this story to help a child named Yousiff was my miracle. Yousiff touched me in so many ways and if I could visit him, it would be to say, "Thank you, Yousiff"

Note to Canada: Pedophiles are terrorists...Why such a lenient sentence of one? World governments often think that terrorism is a result of terrorists bombing places and taking the lives of the innocent. I would go them one better, pedophiles are equally terrorizing the innocent especially the most innocent, our children.

Ron Paul: The bionic candidate You would have thought with the Christmas season upon us, this campaign would not have seen this bionic-number, but it did. Maybe the people want an early 2008 Christmas present. Who can blame them when year after year especially during the Bush years, all the American people have received is coal in their stockings.

Politics: Is America receiving only the chaff instead of the wheat? when the media focuses primarily on these top-tier candidates another quote from Adlai E. Stevenson comes to mind as it pertains to the media, "An editor is someone who separates the wheat from the chaff and then prints the chaff." So are Americans only receiving the chaff and not the wheat? You tell me.

It's the Constitution, Stupid...A message to all politicians In essence what we need is elected leaders guided by the Constitution and not religious doctrine. We should remind them all, "It's the Constitution, stupid."

America's day of infamy was when the Bush V. Gore case was decided The people were denied their voice on that day and we must always be mindful that it should never happen again. Bush always states that our soldiers are dying for our freedoms and one of those freedoms is to have every vote counted. His very presence in office and by the means he obtained it besmirches the honor and duty to all that serve this country.

Note to Israel in dealing with the Gaza: "Let those people go" to the State of Israel, my words are clear when it comes to those living in the Gaza, let those people go and let them get the medical care they so rightly deserve.

Bill O'Reilly's head must be doing a 360 and spitting pea soup In closing to attack pedophile victims such as Shawn Hornbeck or to state that writers for "left web sites" such as me are glad that men like Tony Snow has been battling cancer, it is none-other than Bill O'Reilly who is in need of an exorcism. The reason I say that is that exorcists who battle the devil in the Rituale Romanum will often state that the devil will lie and the same is directed at Bill O'Reilly.

Robert Gates said, "No, I do not." When asked if Israel posed a threat Note to both Republicans and Democrats alike: I challenge you to vote Paul and Gravel in your primaries instead of the top-tier candidates who are blowing smoke when it comes to any threat posed by Iran and no threat coming from Israel. Americans for the most part are tired of being played for suckers.
