WHY THE LUST TO TORTURE?
Tuesday, 31 October 2006 12:24 P GMT-07
Why is the administration so determined to pursue the right to torture? By making an illegal and immoral practice a key element of U.S. policy, they're acting to eliminate all limits on the president's power.
WHO ARE WE?
Tuesday, 31 October 2006 11:19 A GMT-07
We have a general idea of who we in America were prior to and immediately after 9/11. Since then the character of America has changed and we're now completely ruled by fear. Who are we now? What have we become?
YESTERDAY'S MEN
Monday, 30 October 2006 5:25 P GMT-07
Our country has been led for 5 years by "yesterday's men" -- those who persist in repeating mistakes of the past and have shown an inability to adapt to changing times and circumstances.
MOVEON's CALL FOR CHANGE
Sunday, 29 October 2006 3:49 P GMT-07
Join in spreading the word about MoveOn's cutting-edge Call for Change program-which allows regular people to mobilize targeted voters from their home computer and phone.
A FEW BAD MEN
Saturday, 28 October 2006 3:28 P GMT-07
Neo-Nazis and other racist extremists are infiltrating the U.S. armed forces at an alarming rate. These "few bad men" pose a future threat of domestic terrorism.
TRAINING DOMESTIC TERRORISTS
Saturday, 28 October 2006 1:46 P GMT-07
Alarming evidence is growing about the increasing presence of neo-Nazi extremists in the U.S. military. But with the military unable to meet enlistment goals this policy is now being ignored. Result: we now may be training the next Timothy McVeigh.
THE FORGOTTEN CONFLICT
Tuesday, 24 October 2006 1:08 P GMT-07
A retrospective look at U.S. policy and actions in Afganistan, which have for the most part escaped criticism and opposition. Could other policies have brought about better results?

A TILLMAN TRIBUTE
Saturday, 21 October 2006 2:14 P GMT-07
A tribute to pro football star, Pat Tillman, written by his brother, Kevin. It's a powerful and sincere statement from another combat veteran who sees through the lies, hypocrisy and illegalities of those who sent his brother off to die.
TAKE THE HIGH(TOWER) ROAD
Sunday, 15 October 2006 5:25 P GMT-07
We need to all have the courage to take the High(tower) Road when we vote next month, renouncing the "culture of obedience," and make the GOP "secret weapon" misfire.
WHEN WILL WE EVER LEARN?
Sunday, 15 October 2006 4:12 P GMT-07
A fwe days ago I posted blogs that called attention to the hopelessness of relying on revenge and retribution as ways of reacting to attacks or to injuries received. Here's another example. When will we ever learn?
A TWILIGHT MENTALITY
Saturday, 14 October 2006 3:06 P GMT-07
A U.S. military attack on Iran would be an act of insanity. Yet it is still a real possibility. Indeed, a sort of twilight mentality grips the world and especially the U.S.
FRUITS OF RETRIBUTION
Thursday, 12 October 2006 3:22 P GMT-07
In retribution for the 9/11 attacks the U.S. (Bush) policies have doubled the number of American victims and untold nuubers of Iriqis and Afgans. "What goes around, comes around." Where will it all stop?
AN AMISH LESSON
Wednesday, 11 October 2006 8:52 A GMT-07
In their reaction to the tragic Amish schoolgirl murders the Amish community is teaching us a much needed lesson. A reliance on and preoccupation with motivations of revenge and retribution in response to injury is self-defeating.
THE REALITY OF HIZBALLAH
Tuesday, 10 October 2006 2:46 P GMT-07
Why is Hizballah, a group the U.S. labels "terrorist," the most popular power in the Middle East and its head, Seyid Hassan Nasrallah, the most popular leader?
THE FOLEY FOLLY FALLOUT
Tuesday, 3 October 2006 12:31 P GMT-07
The fallout from Mark Foley's folly is likely to be widespread and potentially lethal for the GOP. His pursuit of male teenage pages has been well known to many top Republicans who chose to ignore it for months.
COVERING UP CORRUPTION
Monday, 2 October 2006 5:26 P GMT-07
The extent of corruption in our government is astonishing and has reached epidemic proportions. What is inexcusable is the way and extent that it has been covered up and kept from the public.
