All Nutty On The Western Front
All Nutty On The Western Front The vast majority of the American population says it wants the war in Iraq to end. But not many are taking action to make it happen. Every United States citizen, though, has vested interests in making sure that they stop the war. Take healthcare, for example. The $450 billion that has already been spent on the Iraq war could have paid for the healthcare of every single American (and then some) for one entire year. But why hasn

Delusionary Loyalty
Delusionary Loyalty The war that George W. Bush, Dictatorial Figurehead of the United States Government, sent our troops to fight in Iraq never really existed. It was all a transformational mural in his delusional mind. What little there is left of it (not that he had all that much to play with from the outset). There were no “weapons of mass destruction” as promised; the late Saddam Hussein was not sleeping with al Qaeda; there was absolutely no way the United States could have
Blind Orphan Whistles A Happy Tune
Blind Orphan Whistles A Happy Tune With the encouragement of his piano teacher at the Texas School for the Blind, Fred Lowery got up the nerve to audition for a radio program on July 23, 1929. A few days later, the station manager phoned the 19 year old blind orphan to tell him he had the job. For the first time in his life, he would be paid for what he most loved to do

My International Flight International travel has changed since the last time I flew out of the country (over 27 years ago. Most other things have change as well). There are the obvious security checks post 9/11, like removing one

Lawyer Tried To Take Them To The Cleaners
Lawyer Tried To Take Them To The Cleaners I know the price of everything keeps rising, but when I read recently that a man in Washington, D.C. wanted somewhere between 54 and $67 million for a pair of pants, it seemed to me it was a bit high. I mean, if you were to pay fifty or sixty million dollars for a pair of pants, wouldn
Bring Juries Back To Texas
Bring Juries Back To Texas These days, you cannot turn on the internet without some ad, popping up about “lawsuit abuse.” Similar billboards dot the highways, and are on the sides of buses. Over the last two decades, millions of corporate dollars have poured into this “tort reform” campaign; and President Bush has become its “Cheerleader-in-Chief.” It is a sophisticated operation to convince the public it is their best interest to limit lawsuits, and ultimately to severely limit jury trials. Isolated examples of abuses are used to wrongly generalize a justice system out of control. The examples often are incomplete, embellished, riddled with half-truths

Letters To The Editor
To The Editor: How heartless it would have been to leave Scooter behind bars while his exploiters remained free (possibly working up a terrible grudge to explode into a devastating book). Remarkably, only former New York Times reporter Judy Miller (who never published a story using her information on the Plame security leak) served prison time, 85 days, until she finally revealed her source, Scooter Libby. Another leaker, former Deputy Secretary of State Dick Armitage, apparently inadvertently, leaked to Chicago Sun-Times columnist Bob Novak, while Bush chief strategist and Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove leaked to both Time Magazine
