QUOTATIONS TO LIVE BY
Monday, 29 October 2007 3:44 P GMT-07
Here are a diverse group to quotation from a wide variety of people - some famous, some unknown - that I believe deserve some thought. Many are worth remembering.
BY HIS VETOES YE SHALL KNOW HIM
Monday, 22 October 2007 1:06 P GMT-07
George W. Bush's vetoes reveal the real person. In 7 years only 3 vetoes: One was a bill to bring troops home from Iraq, another was funding for stem cell research and now the SCHIP bill expanding healthcare for children. All are anti-life vetoes.

TAKE ACTION RE. SOCIAL SECURITY
Sunday, 21 October 2007 4:44 P GMT-07
FAIR has provided the means to take action in regard to some scaremongering about Social Security by ABC and The Washington Post. Hope you'll join me.
MIGRANT DEATHS AS U.S. POLICY
Wednesday, 17 October 2007 9:17 A GMT-07
The deaths (over 3000 since 1998) of migrants in the desert are not an accident, they are U.S. policy. Migrants cross the border not to break the law or steal jobs, but to create a hopeful and sustainable life.
KEEPING UP APPEARANCES
Tuesday, 16 October 2007 4:22 P GMT-07
Bush's plan is no longer aimed at winning a war, but rather to keep up appearances until his term ends and then shift blame for failure onto his successor.
TRAGIC REALITY ON THE GROUND
Monday, 15 October 2007 5:57 P GMT-07
Bush told us on Sept. 13 that the withdrawal of our troops in Iraq would result in a "humanitarian nightmare." Bob Herbert shows that the reality on the ground shows that the nightmare arrived a good while ago.
GET USED TO IT
Sunday, 14 October 2007 3:39 P GMT-07
There's one inescapable conclusion in the wake of the testimonies of Petraeus and Crocker last month before a Congressional committee: both generals and ambassadors lie when it suits them. You might as well get used to it.
SACRIFICED ON THE ALTAR OF CORPORATE DOGMA
Thursday, 11 October 2007 4:08 P GMT-07
Bush's promise to veto the bipartisan SCHIP bill is a clear case of sacrificing over 4 million children on the altar of corporate dogma.
A LAWLESS PRESIDENCY
Tuesday, 9 October 2007 3:30 P GMT-07
We have a lawless presidency, and Congress has not had the courage to hold the executive to obeying and enforcing the Constitution.
LET'S MOVE ON
Thursday, 4 October 2007 10:37 A GMT-07
There was nothing wrong with the MoveOn.org ad on Gen. Petraeus. There is no need to apologize for it.
NO TIES THAT BLIND WITH IRAN
Wednesday, 3 October 2007 10:07 A GMT-07
A satirical analysis of Pres. Ahmadinejad's Columbia University speech from an Australian reporter.
OUR HYPERPARTISAN SUPREME COURT
Tuesday, 2 October 2007 9:30 A GMT-07
In the last term 24 out of 65 decisions were by a 5-4 vote. Justice Kennedy was in the majority on every one of those 24 decisions.
WHEN THE DEAD ARE NOT DEAD
Monday, 1 October 2007 12:52 P GMT-07
Wonder how the myth of decreased killing in Iraq since the "surge" was created? Not all those killed in Iraq are really dead, according to the Pentagon.
