FLAT IS NOT FAIR AND NIP AND TUCK FIXES AREN'T ENOUGH
Saturday, 30 December 2006 3:36 P GMT-07
There are two areas of reform of government programs that are badly needed, but which will probably not be enacted. They both desperately need a top to bottom overhaul. They are taxes and healthcare.
NO ONE HUNGRY NOW IN U.S.
Thursday, 28 December 2006 3:54 P GMT-07
The USDA's annual report for 2006 lists no one in the "Hungry" category. In fact, according to the report those unable to get enough to eat are no longer hungry, they just suffer from "food insecurity."

ONLY THE WORDS CHANGE
Wednesday, 27 December 2006 10:01 A GMT-07
Talk from the White House about a new direction of cooperation and bipartisanship is just talk. Bush's actions show that he's still a devider, not a uniter.
CONTRACTORS CUT & RUN
Tuesday, 26 December 2006 12:43 P GMT-07
The rebuilding of Iraq that the Bushies promised has been even more of a disaster than the military occupation. Now the private contractors hired to rebuild Iraq are "cutting and running."
AS AMERICAN AS APPLE PIE
Monday, 18 December 2006 4:12 P GMT-07
Stripping the shroud of secrecy and indifference from what is being done in our name and behind the fiction that we are a religious and moral country. Torture is now as American as apple pie.
IRAQ BURNS, WE SHOP
Saturday, 16 December 2006 4:59 P GMT-07
There is something terribly wrong in the juxtaposition of of gleeful Americans storming department stores while Iraq burns in a war started by the U.S.
'A LIBERAL'S PLEDGE'
Thursday, 7 December 2006 2:20 P GMT-07
Here is a pledge that I can identify with. Personally, I think of it more as a statement of principles that we all should endorse, rather than as a partisan pledge.
"WHAT TERRORISTS WANT"
Tuesday, 5 December 2006 1:44 P GMT-07
If you have time to read only one book on terrorism, this is that book.
RATS DESERTING SHIP OF STATE
Monday, 4 December 2006 4:59 P GMT-07
It's probably not surprising that, as the Bush Ship of State sinks lower in the water on it's descent to the bottom, more and more of the rats on board are beginning to jump overboard.
IRAQ: BROKE BEYOND REPAIR
Sunday, 3 December 2006 12:34 P GMT-07
Iraq is broke beyond repair. The Pottery Barn rule won't cut it any more -- we have to get out before more damage is done.
