I’m shocked that NONE of you people who normally jump at any opportunity to ‘rant and rave’ about politics have said anything about the U.S. Supreme Courts recent decision. Yesterday morning, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that corporations can spend freely in federal elections. That statement alone should terrify you! The Supreme Court decision overturned [...]

I for one have to ask “What are we thinking?” Our ancestors fought for freedom and we have slowly let it slip away so we an be lazy.
*Our Governement commits attrocities in our name( no wonder why everyone hates us)
*We are taxed up to 50% of our income 35% on out paycheck and another 10-15% [...]

Not talking about our soldiers. Thx for everything you do.
I had voted every year since I was able in 1996, until 2009. I will no longer vote because it does not matter who we elect. All politicians are paid by the same corrupt corporations for their vote, none of them care what the people want. [...]

How is being gang-raped by colleagues a legitimate “distinct risk” of working for a defense contractor?
I’m sure you’ve heard the story of Jamie Leigh Jones, the Halliburton/KBR employee who was drugged, gang-raped, and abused by her coworkers while in Iraq, and then locked in a shipping container and threatened by the company in an attempt [...]

Of 415 historians who expressed a view of President Bush’s administration to this point as a success or failure, 338 classified it as a failure and 77 as a success. (Moreover, it seems likely that at least eight of those who said it is a success were being sarcastic, since seven said Bush’s presidency is [...]

Since posting this article, there has been overwhelming attempts to disprove this threat to our privacy. To the extent that I had to rename the link to avoid so many hits.
To me, any attempt so massive designed to turn a credible story into a so called hoax is pretty convincing evidence that someone out there [...]

After ruling much of the known world for centuries, Rome fell due to a number of factors that, historians believe, would not have been fatal in isolation, but that proved terminal in combination. Military overspending and overreach, an untenable economic system, and currency debasement all played a role. As has been well documented, the Roman [...]

Michele Bachmann has become known as the Queen of the anti-government Tea Baggers, protesting health care reform and slamming every other government handout as “socialism.” But what her followers don’t know is that Rep. Bachmann is also a queen of another kind—a welfare queen. That’s right, the anti-government insurrectionist has taken more than a quarter-million [...]

The president of Haiti lost his home and had nowhere to sleep last night. Neither did I. Lost my job last year. Lost my 401.k when the big bankers all got a free ride on my money. Lost my house and I live in a car. I ask for assistance and there’s none there for [...]

My Opinion:
Goodbye 2009. Can’t say I’m sorry you’re gone.
Bernie Madoff `made off’ with millions of dollars he allegedly swindled from Wall Street investors and ended up in jail. It’s most likely Wall Street’s biggest scandal, ever. Many people lost their life’s savings, college education funds and more. It has certainly had an impact on [...]
