For what I’m about to go into, some background is required…

Feel free to give it a read. The newspaper in question, not always the best, but in this situation they give a fair account of what’s going on. A nice, kindly older gentleman by the name of Robert Sinclair, a school crossing guard, has been [...]

Accepting a Nobel Peace Prize while escalating war. Claiming Republican faults for the financial crisis when facts reveal Democrats were in direct control of Congress at the time. Lying about a puppy for his daughters. Refusing to pay his bills on time, until someone might find out. All this, and more, has surfaced only to [...]

Recovery.gov is very innovative. You can go there and track how the economic stimulus dollars are being spent, and how American jobs are being saved and created. Sometimes, out of thin air, it seems. An ABC News report has uncovered in many states there are statistics for non-existent places. Congressional districts that aren’t present in [...]

I seem to remember reading, long ago, another organization of pirates attempted to blackmail nations by controlling passage through and around their territory. It led to armed conflict with many deaths.
What I most wonder, now, with all this technology, all these advances, all this ‘growth’, why are criminal thugs still such a threat in the [...]

The F.D.A. (Food & Drug Administration) is set to ‘ban’ the sale of raw oysters from the Gulf Coast as food items, unless they’re treated in a manner which many experts conclude alters or destroys their unique taste.
What I want to know is, why? The ‘potentially deadly bacteria’ that the F.D.A. says is the problem [...]

Barack Obama wants people to believe he’s not a yes-man to big business. He’ll tout his words. He has to tout his words, because, in the big picture, he hasn’t *DONE* much. He’s claimed much, but the legwork, planning, and execution almost entirely falls on other people.
But, he can’t even talk his way out of [...]

At first, I was probably like many of you. Roman Polanski, prolific film director and internationally-known celebrity, was charged with having sex with a 13 year old girl when he was in his early 40’s, after drugging the girl.
The charges were carried out in trial. He plead guilty in what was probably a plea agreement, [...]

The White House has been engaging in a harsh war of words against Fox News, claiming that they are an agent of a Republican agenda, that their programming is aimed at “making money”, and that they should not be treated as a news organization at all.
Well, that’d be all well and good. Except, the White [...]

Maybe you’ve heard it by now, but Keith Bardwell would like you to know he isn’t a racist.
He is a justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, and he asks every prospective couple seeking a marriage license from him if they are an “interracial” couple. But he isn’t a racist. He insists he will [...]

In Cocoa, Florida, there was a public forum on health reform at the Cocoa BCC (Brevard Community College) campus. The opinions of many in attendance were against the bills making their way through Congress. And, unlike the Obama administration and bill authors and supporters would like us to believe, very little if any of that [...]
