  • Karen Kwiatowski: True Honor

    There are still heroes and Karen Kwiatowski is one of them. “After two decades in the U.S. Air Force, Lieutenant Colonel Karen Kwiatkowski, now 43, knew her career as a regional analyst was coming to an end when – in the months leading up to the war in Iraq – she felt she was being […]

  • U. S. Nation Debt Surpasses $7 Trillion

    Yep you read that correctly. SEVEN TRILLION dollars – for the first time ever. And those of us who’ve worked in finance before know that that is a seriously watered-down number. Any publicly announced stat is always ‘massaged’ to be more palatable. But is it all really that bad. That’s the thing that drives me […]

  • Bush AWOL Story Pops Again

    The story of Bush not fulfilling his duty in the National Guard is out in the papers again. This time – that he was AWOL for over a year. Say what you will – but why can’t they find any eyewitnesses that served with him? Why isn’t this easily disproved. in Alabama nor Texas has […]

We are the only country not to have signed the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (which prohibits the practice). The last five executions of juvenile offenders in the world have all […]

  • Who Should I Vote For?

    PresidentMatch.com has a quick little survey that will tell you who you should vote for. I ended up with 100% Kucinich (84% Dean) and for George W. Bush – a paltry 9%. And come on – can you really count Bush’s stint in the National Guard (plus the ensuing AWOL) as military service? Military service […]

  • John Kerry Looks Like Herman Munster

    I was trying to figure out what I find so revolting about John Kerry’s visage. Google of course helped me out. “John Kerry looks like like his face is slowly sliding off his skull” like Bert from Bert and Ernie” like one of the haunted trees in Wizard of Oz“ like a bassett hound“ like […]

  • Portrait of Watergate

    Watergate.info provides an amazingly detailed and extensive history of the downfall of Richard Nixon. I love sites like this where somebody has created a comprehensive cyclopedia – sort of like the 9-11 Timeline or The Stanford Prison Experiment.
