Have we forgotten that Democrats and Republicans are NOT ENEMIES, but partners in representing American interests? I am not solely pointing my fingers at the House...

JFK Jr Today?

December 14, 2011

The World sure missed out on not getting a President John F Kennedy Jr. Where would we be now? It always sucks to be the inheriting president. Unless you’re an old salt. JFK Jr was such an American icon. He had a keen sense of business, a very insightful perspective into politics, considering the...

Alabama immigration law set back again – USATODAY.com

MyTake : It’s embarrassing to me, as an American citizen, to know that we actually voted on, and legislated such laws. It’s barbaric, considering that our society had suffered through and (should have) learned from enslaving africans and the dismissal of native american sovereignty. We are witnessing the next embarrassing, somehow-excusable chapter in US...

Romney on middle ground – AP

MyTake: I COMPLETELY DISAGREE with the notion that corporate bailouts were necessary. You mean to tell me that all those sophisticated algorythms run by supercomputing systems, designed and managed by the best financial minds didn’t see a catastrophic disaster coming? If so, then why do we have them? I think the distribution of suffering...

The Sound of Silence

I spin this out to the news media outlets, who lack the courage to ask the real questions when reporting the US financial crisis. Passive slaves to their advertisers, they no longer speak up for the American people with the unbiased integrity and fortitude of their icons like Morrow and Cronkite.
