The Danger of Armed Insurrection in America Today

October 21st, 2010 · Comments Off · Politics, wars and militarism

We go to work in unnerving heavy traffic, fighting to get there on time so that we won’t be one of those who is on the list for the next layoff. We come home to find out that the neighbor down the street who lost his job 9 months ago and never found another has [...]

Sinister Economics

July 13th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Capitalism, Corporations and Industry, Economics, Lobbying, Politics, Populism, Wall Street

Let’s understand one thing. The economic problems of the country were not caused by “Progressive” or “Liberal” or “Populist” policies. They were caused in the last 30 years and they were caused by an ideology that did not embrace rational thought, either in economics or in politics or in human relationships. It can only be [...]

The Disturbing Nonsense of the Powerful Right Wing Media

June 28th, 2010 · Comments Off · Entertainment, Media, Politics

The Right Wing media has an overwhelming advantage over the commentary that comes from the Left. First of all, 90% of all radio programming that involves commentary is Right Wing commentary. That is, factually, 91% of all radio talk programming or commentary is identified as conservative talk radio. They don’t try to hide that they [...]

Truth and Freedom of the Press

May 21st, 2010 · Comments Off · Culture, Media, Politics

It might surprise some people to learn that according to an organization called Reporters without Borders, a group that monitors freedom of the press across all nations, the United States ranks 20th in freedom of the press, behind Denmark, Sweden, and others. But you run out of the very liberal Scandinavian countries after five, so [...]

Wake Up, America!

May 14th, 2010 · Comments Off · Corporations and Industry, Lobbying, Media, Politics, Wall Street

When will Americans finally wake up? Corporations have taken over the United States. The Republican Party has become, as Anthony Weiner said, in his complete frustration during the health care debate. “a wholly owned subsidiary of the health insurance business.” Today, May 14, 2010, an oil spill from a company that makes billions of dollars [...]

The Bible and the Federalist Papers

April 8th, 2010 · Comments Off · Culture, Politics, Science & Technology

The year 1776 was not much different from the year 76. In both years and eras there were no airplanes, cars, electric lights, radio, telephone, telegraph, television, Ipods or Ipads. There was no electricity, no steam, no combustion engine, no natural gas power, not even propane. There was no Internet, nor were there railroads, buses, [...]

More Idiotic Propaganda From the GOP Lunatic Fringe

March 4th, 2010 · 1 Comment · Health Care, Media, Politics

The Republicans have lost the battle against health care for their supporters in the health insurance industry. With no more stalling options, they are trying to use propaganda to scare and distract Americans about the federal government. Most of it is just gibberish. Be assured of one thing. We are in no danger of becoming [...]

The Communist Fallacy

March 2nd, 2010 · Comments Off · Media, Politics

You might want to take everything you know about our country and have a second look. We all used to participate in the defense of our country. Now we have young people, mostly poor, trying to get ahead, who risk their lives for a college education while others, not risking their lives, go to college [...]

The Next American Revolution

February 27th, 2010 · Comments Off · Economics, Health Care, Media, Politics, wars and militarism

It is time for all Americans to stop what they are doing and think about the future. Your future has already been mapped out for you by a relatively small percentage of Americans, who want to eliminate the middle class. The Neoconservatives, on a mission for the very wealthy and huge international corporations, have the [...]

Fools, Damned Fools, Morons…and Sean Hannity

December 16th, 2009 · Comments Off · Culture, Media, Politics

There are a number of so-called commentators who are paid enormous sums to distort the truth on Fox News Channel in order to persuade poor and middle class people to vote against their own best interests. Sean Hannity is perhaps foremost among those. If you tell a sophisticated New Yorker that Sean Hannity is basically [...]
