Is Mandatory Health Coverage Inherently Un-American?
Posted By: Publius51

I am one of the many Americans who belives that the health care system is in desperate need of reform. Costs should be driven down and enhanced competition between insurers should be put in play to guarantee Americans quality, affordable coverage of their choice.
I would like to see every American covered with at the very [...]

Winners and Losers
Posted By: Andrew

There were few winners and many losers in the recent Operation Lead Cast fought in the Gaza Strip.  I will list the winners and then the losers of the campaign in no particular order.
WINNERS:
Hamas – The obvious winner of the conflict.  Although Hamas received heavy casualties they have managed to not only stay in power [...]

Why Gitmo Can’t Close

I was going to write about why the US government should not close GITMO, but then I found THIS ARTICLE which makes the point better than I ever could.

#44
Posted By: Publius51

The election of Barack Obama has no doubt forever changed the American political landscape for the better. A man who is half-African American stood at the very building that was in part built by slave labor and addressed the nation as its 44th President. It will hold true through the annals of our history that [...]

Secretary of State Lieberman?
Posted By: Publius51

Perhaps it would be Secretary of Defense? One thing is for certain, if John McCain is elected President of the United States come this November, a Joe Lieberman cabinet appointment is certainly not out of the question.
Lieberman, who has been outcast from the Democrat Party for his support of the Bush Administration’s War in Iraq, recently spoke [...]

Posted By: Andrew

I will preface this post by saying I have no evidence to back up the prediction I am about to make.
The Presidential polls are tightening and right now it looks like either candidate might make the crucial decision or blunder that might clinch or cost their party the election. I don’t think President Bush will [...]

Posted By: Franklin

Ron Paul, Ralph Nader, Bob Barr, Chuck Baldwin, and Cynthia McKinny are set to share a mic at the National Press Club in DC later this week.  Lew Rockwell, who spoke at Paul’s Rally for the Republic event last week, comments it will be a “historic and direct attack on the Republicrat duopoly.”
He means socialist [...]

DEMOTION!!!
Posted By: Publius51

For too long has there been blatant media bias in every news source whether it be print press, radio, television or internet.  Those people who say Fox News is a tool of the Republican Party should look no further than MSNBC for its counterpart on the Left. I watched Fox, CNN and MSNBC every night [...]

My Muslim Faith?
Posted By: Publius51

You know, its been a while since I last posted and I have so many thoughts running around this head of mine. We are heading into the final lap of seemingly the longest presidential campaign in recent memory. With so many important questions still to be answered from Senators Obama, Biden, McCain and Governor “Hottie McHotHot” [...]

Lovely Lady Maverick Lumps
Posted By: Franklin

Sarah Palin hunts, fishes, and wants to drill. She carries equal amounts of sass and cleavage. As a sportsman, boob lover, and fan of trickle down oil profits, I have a profound emotional attachment to her that reason cannot touch.
You could tell me for example that as mayor of Wasilla (pop. of 5,469 as of 2000 census) she [...]
