I am an ordinary citizen who for the first sixty years of his life was mostly disinterested in politics. Then George Bush and Dick Cheney intruded into my consciousness and I realized politics is important and determines who lives and who dies. In recent years I have written a series of letters to newspapers expressing my concern for my fellow man and this beautiful planet. I truly appreciate the OPEDNEWS forum as opportunity to help find a way to a better future.

Why Bottom Up Cannot Prevail Most of us who contribute to OEN focus on one issue. This piece attempts to show the over-riding constraint to all well-intentioned pieces focusing on an individual concern. Again I'm trying to show why all our efforts to bring the better necessarily must fail.

Where Pro And Anti Abortionists Agree I hope this piece addresses the claims of Evangelical Christians opposed to abortion and present a different , and I think, reasonable alternative point of view.

Texas Taliban Attacks Womens' Rights It seems strange having to defend a woman's right to make her own choices regarding her own body. I hope talkingabout it will help.
