Keep It Free
Our brave men and women left this country to fight and free an oppressed country and it is our duty to make sure they return to a free country.

Now That’s Odd
Isn’t it odd that through the acts of one Administration screwing your intern was acceptable and through the acts of another Administration screwing your allies is now acceptable.
Weird Economics

Here’s A Thought….
Here’s a thought, what is the chance, percentage wise, that some Service Members share in the view of those who oppose the War? As many Vets and I know, when you wear the uniform, you give-up a lot of the freedoms you have swore to protect. What’s wrong with someone else who still has that freedom, expressing that position for the silenced Service Member? Isn’t that what we are truly fighting for?
Good Ridden Wiener
Just wanted to note that I believe today I am hearing the end of Michael (Savage) Wiener. I give him about two more weeks tops, good ridden…
Honorable Men and Women
Although noble and honorable men and women fight wars, War is neither noble nor honorable. Because these unconditional commitments substances our way of life, if called upon to do so, the Just will fight, sacrifice, and die in defense of this great nation.

The Conservatives have become “Deficit Spenders”. In 2003, the American People will pay $181 million in interest for $81 million of deficit spending outlined in W’s 2003 budget.
Am I My Brother�s Keeper?
April 4, 2002
It was nearly 11 years ago around this time of the year when I first recognized the West Bank dilemma. I was severing in the military, stationed in Germany; supporting our forward located forces, which were doing battle in the Middle East (the powers-to-be at the time changed the name to Southwest Asia). One evening while watching reports on TV about SCUD missiles being launched into Israel�s West Bank and Galza Strip, I was dumb-founded to see Palestinians standing on their rooftops, cheering as missiles destroyed their cities? Realization hit, they were not cheering at their homes being destroyed, and they were cheering because their prisons were being destroyed�
These are a desperate people and have reverted to doing desperate things. How else can we explain girls becoming murderous suicide bombers? These malevolence attacks have pushed the Israelis to the brick of all out war. And now out of frustration and desperation, the Israeli army is conducting counter-terrorist operations, sealing off entire cities, going from house-to-house and rounding up all suspected Terrorist. Yet this war is not being fought between opposing armies, it�s being fought by everyday Israeli and Palestinians people. When Civilians fight wars, there are no �Rules of Engagement� or �Geneva Convention� codes to follow or be enforced. It may be a little known fact, but Armies do conduct war by certain rules and when these rules are broken, war crimes are committed and after the conflict, there is a reckoning for the perpetrators of these atrocities.
Will we once again standby and watch innocent Israelis be butchered? Is there another nation that has suffered more? Imagine, more Jews were killed during WWII than there are Jews currently living in Israel� Knowing this frank fact only makes one understand why the Israelis will not let this happen again. Two passionate peoples are fighting at a bloodlust level for what they believe is their right to exist, and we can no longer wait to see if they can peacefully resolve their differences. We must act now before this struggle pulls us all into an �us versus them� conflict.
Are we our brother�s keeper or do we continue to stand aside, hoping everything will work itself out? Didn�t we learn our lesson during WWII or must history repeat itself? It�s time for the �World Leader� to start leading. Let us all hope and pray that the Secretary of State will have a successful trip, getting these warring parties to stop killing and start dialoging. God speed, Collin Powell, god speed…

Enron was Mr. Bush’s biggest political patron as he headed into the 2000 presidential election. In all it has made $623,000 in contributions to his campaigns since 1993, when he was raising money for his first Texas gubernatorial race, according to the Center for Public Integrity, another watchdog group.
But the giving did not stop after Election Day. Enron officials contributed $10,500 to his Florida recount committee, and when the recount was ended, they donated $300,000 for the inaugural celebrations, said Holley Bailey, researcher for the Center for Responsive Politics.
