Blinded By The (lack of) Heat

As Denver sees its coldest summer in 50 years (defying the global warming theories) it is also embarking on how to make things even colder: Denver is gearing up to fight global warming, and residents may soon be asked to make personal sacrifices to help save the planet. The new plan is aimed at making […]

Democracy At Work

Well, it seems we will have another chance to test the true nature of the far right and its respect for diversity of views and living under a democracy. ABC World News said Bush “will be greeted by a host of political problems” on his return — among them the President’s effort to “win over […]

Skin, Not Emrbyos, New Source For Stem Cells

Science has a way of solving our problems, and usually can do it within normal moral guidelines if given the chance to work without hype and speculation from the science-challenged media. Case in point, a potentially unlimited supply of stem cells from skin – the one organ that regenerates constantly and which can be harvested […]

I Agree With Joe Lieberman

I agree with Sen Joe Lieberman and his views on Iran (and I suspect there is a under-the-table diplomatic warning that is basically of the same nature that has gone out to Iran): Sen. Joe Lieberman says the United States should be prepared to take “aggressive military action” against Iran in response to its purported […]

No Confidence In Washington DC, Or In The Two Parties

Americans are getting fed up with the pointless bickering in DC. They are leaving both parties in droves and they are getting ready for a house (and Senate) cleaning in 2008. Why? Because of things like this: Some Republican senators are bristling over the Democrat’s tactics over the expected no-confidence vote Monday on U.S. Attorney […]

Bush Finds Support In Albania

Published by under All General Discussions

Of course Bush has a hard […]

Naysayers Find Faults In Successes In Iraq

There is always some handwringer around, explaining how everything proposed will never work to solve the problem at hand. They come out of the woodwork trying to rationalize why nothing can be done. They have some crazy idea that thinking of possible negative outcomes makes them truly smart somehow. Negative and positive outcomes are always […]

Democrats Make Sense On Immigration

I disagree with Dem Governor Janet Napolitano on many issues. But on immigration she (and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sen McCain and Sen Kyle) and I agree: On the subject of immigration, my plea to Congress is loud and clear: You can’t quit now.

What The GOP Wrought On Immigration, Part I

I guess I have the sad duty of demonstrating to the country what the GOP did for us when they killed of a bill that had holes, imperfections – but a lot of good ideas and needed changes. All legislation is made up of the good and the bad. If you focus only on the […]

Hispanics Will Help Democrats Over GOP

With the immigration hypochondriacs spew how un-American it is to provide a path to legal status here for illegal workers, by paying fines and back taxes and staying away from crime, they have sent a signal to the Hispanic population – both immigrant and recent citizens. A signal that is unmistakable because the rhetoric from […]
