During the presidential race, I heard this story (complete with art) that a guy had taken his daughter to a Democratic Rally for John Kerry. They stood front...
I would hate to believe that both the 'sign guy' and his attackers were paid by the republican party--but it seems quite possible to me. This type of...
Truth seems to be a bit "slippery" these days <G> And they are a big old government and you are a little old citizen . . . . and they'll tell you what's true...
We are at war as I understand it. Congress voted to give Bush the right to wage a war (a real live war) on any country that supports terrorism. Insane, eh? ...
According to Public Law 107-243, the president is "Authorized to use force" against and within Iraq. However, no formal declaration of war exists. Wrap your...
Congress has the power to declare and it rests with them. The president is commander of the armed forces and can give them orders to go into combat. The...
See, I think it all falls a part in a big way if the President used misinformation to get people to support a war. Then "moved the goal posts" twenty times...
This is interesting, since the military has already "deployed" and used hundreds of thousands of pounds of depleted uranium projectiles there (which the UN...
Do you have a burning need to broadcast an opinion? Do you have a story to tell (briefly, in up to 500 words)? How about a review of your book, or your review...
He would have seen that comparing Bush to Hitler will only get people angry, and not at Bush, either. Well, sure enough, he has proven that we were right. Bill...
So, yeah, I've been looking into the Senator Byrd thing. I read about it here first, and so far have found only republican hate speech carrying to banner on...
By the way, the rule that is currently being debated is the one used in "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington" and, without it, they would have just shut poor old...
Left: (Everything they don't like is exactly what Hitler did...) http://markadams.blogdrive.com/archive/800.html "Specifically, Cheney will be called upon to...
The Republicans are watching for any mistake and Byrd obviously made one. Even implying that the Republicans resembled Hitler was enough for them to jump...
I wanted to apologize for not posting much. I've been under the gun on two projects. I always find the Political Fiction conversations so interesting (and...
On CBS last night they talked about the torture flights (another Blog rumor proved fact). And not a blip from the world at large. "Oh, yeah, we torture people...
Is the World Battle Fatigued? Sounded more to me like N. is battle fatigued. You ain't gonna get a perfect world. You ain't gonna even come close. These things...
Responding to Darrell, Asia is rising. India spent a lot of money and years educating a generation of computer geeks and now they're taking the programming...

The words "hubris" and "inflated opinion of selves" comes to mind when I read something like that. It gets me riled up, because Americans tend to insulate...
Actually, I am pretty well versed in history and other cultures, although neither me nor anyone else can know it all. But I have traveled extensively and...
Darrell, some excellent points. The patent argument confuses me as I'm not sure whether you want me to compare patents filed with the US Patent and Trademark...
I think I sort of launched a part of this conversation so I'll jump back in. Are Americans somehow superior to everyone else--more creative, etc.? No, I don't...
I didn't say our liberties led directly to creativity. I said a *mix* of different cultures, a new continent that (gave us a spirit of adventuresomness) and...
"As to who was the most creative, I haven't a clue and don't see where one little story like that pertains much to what we were discussing. You can't draw any...
So, on another channel <G> I joined this group of film makers creating films for "Red States" focusing on politics, conservatism, christianity. I joined cause...
