Thanks go out to Ohio.com for giving me the opportunity 2 1/2 years ago….and to all who read and comment here. _________ The health care reform legislation has passed.

Pride In The President, Part 2

June 7, 2009

Today I continue with Part 2 of my appraisal of President Obama's speech from Cairo, Egypt…. To those Muslims in Hamas, Hizbollah, al-Qaeda, or Iran,…Obama spoke honestly and directly about Israel… Six million Jews were killed – more than the entire Jewish population of Israel today. Denying that fact is baseless, ignorant, and hateful. Threatening [...]

Village Idiots

June 4, 2009

Questions. Does the United States have any "settlements" that are, like, ongoing? Do our citizens use the word "settlements" to describe standard condo building? When U.S. real estate companies advertise their listings, do they print stuff like, "3 bedroom, 2 bath settlement, cheap"? Ever seen something like that? Washinton Post writer David Ignatius' column is [...]

George Will, The AB Journal, & Truth

May 28, 2009

The Akron Beacon Journal loves them some George Will. Will's Washington Post columns appear regularly in the Beacon. Recently, the Beacon reprinted one of Will's columns on global warming that included his total distortion of research findings. Will, alleged to be an intellectual, often distorts the facts as he did in his screed, also reprinted [...]

War on terror. Evil-doers. Axis of evil. Islamofascists. Mission accomplished. The Patriot Act. Weapons of mass destruction. Operation: Iraqi Freedom. Phrases, words, memes,……which have no comprehensible meaning by themselves, some are even oxymoronic,…..all repeatedly written and spoken to mislead, to make Americans think one thing is really something else entirely. An American war of aggression, [...]

The Reckoning

April 23, 2009

Today's Akron Beacon Journal editorial has it wrong. That comes as no surprise to me. Those who write the editorials for the Beacon have been way behind the Bush curve for years. There would be no reason to expect a change now. The editorial calls the Bush-Cheney torture regime "a failure of imagination". Sorry…. it's [...]

Righting The Wrongs

January 23, 2009

1) President Obama had a busy day yesterday. From Dana Priest of the Washington Post…. The military's Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, facility, where the rights of habeas corpus and due process had been denied detainees, will close, and the CIA is now prohibited from maintaining its own overseas prisons. And in a broad swipe at the [...]

AB Journal On Torture: Not A Genuine Crime

January 5, 2009

The Akron Beacon Journal editorial staff, with consistency, has defended the lawless and unconstitutional foreign and military policies of the Bush-Cheney regime. From attacking Iraq unilaterally, to outing CIA agent Valerie Plame, to torture….the Beacon has sought to justify, in virtually every instance, the criminal actions of this hated administration. The Beacon does so again [...]
