• Reflections On Bush

  I miss George W. Bush. To be completely honest, I have a lot less to write/blog about since he's left...
  Oh, I love Obama's idea on [fill in the blank]. It is such a terrific idea. He is the greatest president ever. I am so proud to be an American right now.
  It just doesn't have [...]

• Uninsured

  There will always remain a portion of the U.S. population that is uninsured. There is no way around it. Any purported efforts to completely cover the uninsured are disingenuous because it is impossible to do so. When Hillary Clinton argued that her health care plan was better than Barack Obama's during the 2008 primary because [...]

• Currently Reading

  Former CIA operative Robert Baer feels that the real terrorism threat lies in Iran, and that the unwillingness and political weakness in Washington and the impotence at the CIA are the reasons that America remains unsafe; after reading his story, it is hard not to see that Baer makes a strong argument.

• Media Is Blind To Obama’s Mandate

  In 2000, Texas Governor George W. Bush received less votes than Vice-President Al Gore. After a lengthy legal battle over the contested results from the tie-breaking state of Florida in the historically close election, a legal process that found itself in the Supreme Court, Bush was decreed the victor.

• Prefident Bush: Farewell

  An historic inauguration sends George W. Bush back to Texas, only for the nation to wonder what we had just endured, and what is to come...

• A New Day

  I survived the Bush administration and all I got was this lousy blog post.

• Democrats

  There is a saying, and if there isn't one, there should be. The republicans act like criminals; the democrats act like family. A dysfunctional one. This is why all democratic administrations end up being chaotic. They are filled with internal struggles, policy debates, and debilitating in-fighting.
  Could you imagine an instance where Dick Cheney would throw [...]

• Fallibility

  Culpability of the horrific events of nine-eleven squarely land at the feet of Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda terrorist network. However, fallibility in the U.S. government to prevent the events, according to Richard Clarke, is as follows:
  - Condoleeza Rice, then National Security Advisor, for failing to understand the urgency to deal with the [...]

  Now do not get me wrong. I believe the vice-president when he said Richard Clarke "wasn't in the loop" on terrorism issues. I mean, Dick Cheney is a pretty reliable source. But still, I'd like to hear what Clarke has to say in his destined-for-textbook-status Against All Enemies...

• Free Markets In Question

  So this is what it has come to for President George W. Bush. In the waning days of his two-term administration, following a resounding defeat of his policies at the ballot box, the following headline on MSNBC... "Bush to defend 'free market' system." Well done, sir.
  How bad do you have to be as president -- [...]
