Donald Rumsfeld; is He the Right Man for the Job?
Many of the Democrats running for office state that Donald Rumsfeld has done a poor job executing the War in Iraq and that it has cost too many lives and too much money. They state that the War in Iraq has put our nation into debt. Yet others say that they see the Democratic Leadership generally voting for these things too including all the TSA measures, Military and Department of Homeland Security as well.Read more…Pakistan Resolution
The All India Muslim League held its session in Lahore on 23 March 1940, in which the famous Lahore Resolution, since then called the 'Pakistan Resolution' was adopted. The resolution read as under:RESOLVED that it is the considered view of this session of the All India Muslim League that no Constitutional Plan would be workable in this country or acceptable to Muslims, unless it is designed on the following basic principle, namely, the geographically contiguous units are demarcated into regions which should be so constituted, with such territorial readjustments as may be necessary, that the areas in which the Muslims are numerically in a majority as in the North Western and Eastern Zones of India, should be grouped to constitute 'independent states', in which the constituent units shall be autonomous and sovereign.It has always been taken for granted mistakenly that the Musalmaans are a minority.Read more…Dollars for Democracy
Can a chump like me ever have a legitimate shot at running for public office? It may be sad but in reality my chances are slim to none and slim just left the building.In recent weeks, I’ve read and heard about candidates on both sides of the political spectrum who’ve resigned from their campaigns and primary challenges against party endorsed candidates.Read more…George Bush's Most Recent Deception
Yesterday, I watched in disbelief George W. Bush's convoluted speech to the House of Representatives. It was rather telling that this speech wasn't in primetime but rather at 9 a.Read more…Intergrating Illegal Immigrants
Is this newly scripted and revealed Presidential program to deal with illegal immigrants by embedding them as "Guests Workers", more or less going to be best for America? That is really the main question. Not what is best for you, although you do vote that way, and perhaps you should, but putting the country first before self is an old habit of mine.Read more…Britons See U.S. as Vulgar?
This past week we celebrated America’s independence, I was struck by this item that crossed the electronic news site of record, the Drudge Report: Britons See U.S. as Vulgar Empire Builder.Read more…Mumbi, And What The Bombs Tell Us

Now, I know just how weird this article is going to sound. But believe me, please, when I tell you that I am, to a point, well researched on this, independent of others. All this sentence will make sense in short span.Read more…Demonising Islamic Faith
The first anniversary of the London bombings has provided the Masters of the Universe with another platform from which to lecture us lesser, presumably thicker mortals about the evils of “Islamic terrorism” - and in the process to consciously, deliberately manufacture the “fear of the other” that permits them to strip us of the remaining human and democratic rights of which their “war on terror” has yet to rob us.Television screens all over the global village inform us that the “Islamic terrorists will never defeat us”. Images of London’s Nazi-era “Dunkirk Spirit” are invoked, even as we are told that more of our rights are going to be taken from us.Read more…Net Neutrality on the Hill
The internet has always been a source of confusion and angst on Capitol Hill. It has also been one of the more glamorous issues among the lawmakers, because the impact it has had on the way Americans communicate, seek entertainment and do business.As the speed of the internet has grown, as its "bandwidth" has allowed it to carry large amounts of content at high speed, the internet highway has become an enormously lucrative commercial highway.Read more…Rwanda Rises from the Ashes
Despite the carnage and bloodshed during the 1994 Hutu-led genocidal frenzy, Rwanda, is now a peaceful country of 8 million that has made remarkable strides. In doing so, the country has overcome great odds and become a model of good governance, democracy, reconciliation, and hope.The horrible events, though “well-planned, over a long period”[1] and waiting to be implemented as state-run radio urged, began on April 6, 1994 when the plane carrying Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu and Burundi’s President Cyprien Ntaryamira was shot down just outside of Kigali.Read more…Blair is 5th London Bomber
The search has been on, ever since the London bombings a year ago, for an elusive individual the police and intelligence agencies describe as “the fifth bomber”. He is the mastermind behind 7/7, who presumably slipped out of the country just before the bombers struck. The search is now over.Read more…Left And Right Plagues Cindy Shehan
I was listening to talk radio this morning. I know it shouldn't, but I do. Sometimes the host seems sane and sometimes you get a real stinking day, with the stinking-thinking of a Ghost-host, who is apparently havin' a bad day.Read more…The Changing Face Of Conservatism
These days they say politics is as much about image as policy. Sound bites not speeches on how to change the world.And strangely enough, the man they’re all talking about isn’t the Prime Minister, Mr.Read more…Rape Is Rape
When a woman rapes a child it is called sexual conduct with a person younger then 16. When a man rapes a child it is called rape, sexual assault or molestation, even when the act is consensual.Recently Laura L.Read more…NYC Terrorist Plot Foiled; Oh Really, so What Spending Bill are they Voting on this Week?
Perhaps you have noticed that every time the Government wishes to boost its citizen confidence levels or vote to spend more money on the War of Terror that a sudden and shocking new International Terrorist Plot is foiled? Well Whoopi Skippy indeed.Consider if you will this latest New York City International Terrorist Plot to blow up Holland Tunnel and all the dynamic pressure of the Hudson to force the flooding of the Financial District in Manhattan like a left on Garden Hose?Read more…Three Headed Dragon: Russia, China and North Korea [Japan: the Gofer]
[CNN] “Bush was asked why he was committed to going before the Security Council in an effort to restrict North Korea's missile and nuclear programs while he ignored the council's opposition to going to war in Iraq in 2003.” I said it a long time ago in several articles concerning China, Russia and North Korea, that Japan better hurry up and wake up before they find a missile in their backyard, right down in Tokyo. It almost happened a few days ago.Read more…The Wheels of War [Japan, North Korea, Vietnam and the USA]
War is not always a mere battle over concrete things, but rather a contest of wills, or power over mentalities (state of mind, attitudes) and perceptions (observations, discernments, etc). One might conclude President Bush is fighting the war still in Iraq (and now Korea and Iran on the front) with these precepts in mind. Vietnam was fought by the North with these weapons in mind, with the US Army being advanced tenfold to the VC’s disadvantage; yet the will of the north overwhelmed Washington D.Read more…Top Speaker & Consultant Asks: Is Gas Mileage All That Important?
As a nation it seems we’re becoming fixated on the price of a gallon of gasoline.To an extent, this is only natural. Can you name another product that we use every day that has spiked in price by nearly 50% during the last year or two, and that has nearly doubled from its lowest point during the last eight?Read more…Update: Mexico's President-Elect

The latest television campaign ad in the Virginia Senate race features two of the primary election approaches engineered by Democratic strategists for this November's mid-term contest: attacking the President's judgment and competence and appealing to the patriotism and dedication to service of current and former military members. These two campaign tactics, along with a third, newer strategy that just emerged in recent weeks, form the core of Howard Dean's plan for winning back the House and Senate after twelve years of Republican control.The first part of the campaign strategy centers on attacking the Republican candidate, Senator George Allen, by framing him as "guilty through association" for his support of the President and his policies. - American Government's Chief Cornerstone and Indissoluble Bond - By: Paul Davis
