Thanks by John W. Sammon
I’d like to personally thank a number of people for the screwed up mess the country is in today.
First of all, I’d like to thank President Bush, who pursued a war while ignoring intelligence that contradicted his beliefs, resulting in the very quagmire I predicted months ago.
Next, I’d like to thank his lunatic defense secretary, who continues to downplay the insurgent attacks against American troops as merely the handiwork of bandits and supporters of Saddam Read more…

Now that the dust has settled on Barack Obama’s historic nomination as the Democratic candidate for the presidency, an equally important challenge presents itself. Who should Obama choose as his running mate for the November election?
Hillary Clinton proved herself to be a formidable foe during the Democratic primary, inspiring approximately 18 million voters, especially women, to support her with frenzy-like enthusiasm. Many of her supporters even went so far to say that they would vote for presumptive Republican nominee John McCain if Obama and not Clinton was on the ballot Read more…

For all intents and purposes, justice was served when Sandy Berger was fined $50, 000 by U.S. Magistrate Judge Deborah Robinson in her ruling on September 8, 2005 regarding Sandy Berger’s mishandling of classified documents. Moreover, Sandy Berger will surrender his security clearance for three years following the ruling. Sandy Berger graciously accepted Judge’s Robinson’s decision.
In fact, some would easily believe that Sandy Berger got stiff penalties because his negotiations with chief prosecutor Noel Hillman and company involved only $10, 000 in fine Read more…

The other day it occurred to me that during Ronald Reagan’s run for the Presidency he created a Å“Misery IndexÂ. This index represented a total of the rate of inflation, plus the prime rate, as an indicator of how the American people felt about how they were doing. No one has suggested resurrecting this index in recent years. My thought was to create a Å“Happiness IndexÂ. How happy are you with the leadership of the country. The problem is that other than taking an outright poll, how do you determine happiness? Could you merely ask people if they are happy, or not with the way things are going?
Think about it for a moment, and try to objectively look at what’s been going on the last couple of years Read more…

Funny how the debate over the United Arab Emirates management takeover of US port facilities fails to focus on spying as a major concern. Nothing less than the security of the Ports of New York, New Jersey, Baltimore, Miami and even New Orleans, a major choke point of America’s oil supplies, is at stake.
Enough has been written about how petrodollar flows find their way into the hands of militant Islamists and finance the forces of world terrorism to establish it as fact. These money transfers make it clear that any Middle East oil producing nation is subject to powerful influences from Alqaeda and other such groups Read more…

Every nation has its inventors. No; make it illustrious sons. (Because there are few illustrious daughters.) Look at this checklist: Alfred Nobel was an illustrious son. While his fellow Swedish natives were busy catching fishes in the North Seas, he was engaged in harnessing the destructive power of the atom. The Japanese residents of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during the Second World War know the rest of the story.
Italy too has her illustrious son Read more…

Before I start I would like to admit that I am a conservative. I am not a Republican, I despise President Bush for his big spending policies and I am sorry I ever voted for him. If I do not like his level of spending you can imagine how I feel about a candidate who is promising 10 times as much. I also spit at the thought that the Republicans may choose a liberal like Rudy Giuliani to run on their ticket.
So far Hillary has promised over 750 billion dollars in new spending over the first four years she is in office Read more…

John Kerry Won the Election… Or so Says Harvard University by Gary R. Hess
The elections in America have become a joke.
For those of you who don’t know, your vote may not actually count especially if you are from a county which is made up of minorities.
The average percentage of vote not counted during each election year is 3% ranging from 1% in some states to 4% in others.
A study in the year 2002 by Harvard University shows that of the top 100 Counties which held the highest Ëœspoilage’ 67 of those counties were made up more than 12% African American whereas the lowest 100 Counties with spoilage were above 75% white Read more…

Conservative web users argue that their views are being suppressed on youtube. Even heavyweights like Republican Hollywood filmmaker David Zucker can be censored.
A short film by Zucker, who worked with “Scary Movie 4, ” “Airplane!” and other comedies, reportedly had been offered to the Republican Party for use as an ad, but it was declined. It appeared briefly on YouTube, until it was flagged as being “inappropriate for some users”.
On the YouTube Web site, anyone can post videos Read more…
