The War on Drugs has very real victims. Like a 14-year-old girl shot in the head by DEA agents. It’s interesting how this particular news item has been completely buried by the mainstream media.

US looking into ways to delay the November elections in case of terrorism. Funny how the “crackpot” ideas of conspiracy theorists have a way of coming true with Bush in the White House. If such a plan is in place, does one honestly think that a terrorist incident WON’T happen around election time? Al-Qaeda wants to stay in the public light desperately enough to do eveything it can to attack around election day, so allowing them to control the US political process seems like an incredibly stupid idea. That is, of course, if the threat is really coming from outside.

In New York, you can’t even find a famous Republican to agree with the President on Iraq. Best quote on Osama ever… “Tell me, how is it possible that we can’t find a guy who’s 6-foot-6 and supposedly needs a dialysis machine?”

Brown Equals Terrorist. The story of a man, a camera, and the Department of Homeland Security. Think the PATRIOT act means no loss of civil liberties? Explain that sort of thing to me.

Would you use these facilities? It might feel a little funny during the day, but does the effect reverse at night?

The junk science of George W. Bush. Altogether too much of the man’s thinking is faith-based, especially the thinking that led to his Administration appointments.

How European football embodies capitalism better than any American sport. The author brings up a number of excellent points.

The Poor Man replies to Nick Kristof on the subject of calling GWB a ‘liar’. The readers comments are well worth a look over, too.
