The Quality of a Leader??

I am quite tired of deciding who should be our "leader" to guide us through the wilderness of foreign and domestic policy, moral and cultural virtues and all that. Maybe we should take GWB's advice and think of the presidency as the "decider". Who hath the quality of a decider? L...

Notice how the most vocal persons in the focus group were front and center and in partly in the middle. NO ONE was in the back of the room raising their hand to speak?

This reminds me when I was younger and I didn't have cable but I had one of those old TV's where you turn the channels with the two knobs that click. One on top for channels 1-9 or something and the knob below it for channels up to 88 or something. Then there is a third knob that fine tunes the sign...

Come to the Hempfest in Seattle next year. Its one of the biggest in the country. Thats where you can toke up en masse in plain view of law enforcement officials and not get busted. The whole legal issue is a sham. Sure people like to bash cannabis consumers as lazy, free-loving and down-to-earth. B...

Sorry for squeezing in here without reading the entire 100+ posts, but do you think that the recent "bag-o-grenades" incident at the US Embassy in Austria had private contractors on duty or US Military guards?

Why doesn't Chavez just open up gas stations in China? Iranian Oil refiners? I thought Iran can't even refine their own oil that they have resorted to rationing at times.

After reading through the transcript of Ahmedinejad's speech today, I have come to recognize the real winner of today's debacle. Columbia University. Bravo. Aside from disagreeable remarks from either side of the floor and Aheminidinejad's maniacal grin, I am proud of the fact that an American insti...

This whole thing about race and comparing Jackson and Obama in terms of "blackness" is absurd. Obama is not from THE SOUTH. There is no need to examine the candidate about his authenticity of being an African-American that has grown out of the slave trade, civil rights movement, struggles,...

What could Kerry have done about it? Has he done anything about it? How could we find out? Why are we assuming he condoned this behavior? Did he hire these thugs? etc... Kerry had a microphone. He has the floor. He could have raised his voice and said STOP! When did our public leaders start to spea...

I can't believe John Kerry let that happen. Sure he was loud and obnoxious and could have been escorted out, but wrangled down and tasered?? Come on! Kerry is SCUM to me (although he never really had a special place in my heart). In a parallel universe while he was an activist during and after the V...

Let's not forget that France is a nuclear power. They, along with the UK, are the only countries in the union with nuclear weapons and the only ones in the EURO currency club. I think Sarkozy is learning how to swing his weight around from the Conservatives here in the US.
