Consider this as an integral part of YOUR Activism.  Don't be too busy or too lazy.

Cheney: Saddam not involved with the 9/11 attacks

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

Thanks, Dick, for clearing that up, almost seven years after the fact.  Even though the allegation that Saddam was involved with 9/11 was never used by the previous Administration, per se, it was certainly not something that they disabused the American public, many, if not most of whom, thought Saddam ...

The Goddess Vents!

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Dear Friends: I need to vent...to go on a good old-fashioned rant. I was standing at the checkout line in the grocery store today, with the First Lady's picture staring at me from the cover of the rag known as TIME -- the title: "The Meaning of Michelle". ...

The Boys of Pointe Du Hoc

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

   Memorial Day is upon us.  Once again, we can pause to remember the ones who aren't here to hear our thanks.  their deaths on the field of honor are an expression of that deathless valor and love of comrades, of country and of all they held dear that is ...

The History of Socialism

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

Check out my rather lengthy response to Eric's post about Tom Phillip's speech on the history of socialism at Tygrrrrr Express.

American behavior should be exceptional

Monday, April 27th, 2009

I agree with the idea of erring on the side of caution and humanity in regards to all of the debate over torture or "harsh interrogation techniques.  Some good questions have been asked here.  Both parties seem to be more interested in the politics surrounding this issue than debating the ...

For different reasons..Constitutional War making powers

While I think the motivation of these people may be different than my own, I agree with this challenge.Was the Iraq War Constitutionally authorized?  Was it within the powers of the Executive without an explicit declaration of War?Many of these same questions can be asked regarding the ongoing "war" on ...

Nixon Went to China…

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

...Reagan signed the IMF arms control treaty with Gorbachev, and now Obama has opened to door to Cuba, Iran and Venezuela.  If his actions serve America's interests, as those of his predecessors did, we should applaud him.  Negotiating with hostile powers, if done in the national interest, is Realpolitik, a ...
