GOP Scorched Earth Policy to Kill Health Care

If American voters would make Republicans pay for their odious misdeeds, most of our governing problems would be over. There is a lot to be despised about Republican rhetoric and Republican actions, but probably the most reprehensible at this time is their plan to destroy government along with the…

The Tea Party — Billionaire Scam?

Are politicians like Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Michelle Bachmann, Paul Ryan, and Marco Rubio populist Tea Party vintage or just tools of the very rich? Is the obstruction caused by Tea Party representatives in Congress really grass-roots, or is it runaway ideologues playing for attention and uncontrolled by their…

Global Economy: 10% Recovered; 90% Still Hostages

It was an economy raped and savaged by Wall Street banks and hedge funds with conspiratorial help from a number of quarters, the global economy brought to the brink of ruin. It was the same motivation coming with most rapes, self-gratification and power. Americans responded with redemptive loans –…

Better Angels of our Nature

Even before the Trayvon Martin verdict, if we were really “touched by the better angels of our nature,” as Abraham Lincoln once said, we would know that the state of race in America is just one symptom of the sad state of America. Though black Americans are prominent, often…

Drones Above & Purloined Data Below

We are a nation of immigrants. Even the Native Americans immigrated, coming here some 12,000 years ago. To be perhaps peremptory or impertinent, the land was actually given to all of us by the universe, an almost 14 billion year process, perhaps precipitated by the Big Bang which was…

Voting Rights Slipping Away!

It is not every day that the US Supreme Court so actively challenges the designated constitutional authority of the US Congress, considering that Congress, as it did with the Voting Rights Act (VRA) in 2006, enforces the right of citizens of the United States to vote. Congress is specifically…

No real genius at the top, just ruthless privilege

You often hear egregious chatter by apologists for the wealthy, conspicuously mouthed by puppeteers of the rich, who almost exclusively come from the Republican Party. They say that the opulent are the ultimate god-given product of a meritocracy. The corporate executives (like Jamie Dimon, CEO of Chase, for example)…

George W. Bush: Bobbled, Busted and Convicted of War Crimes

Did you know that George W. Bush, even as he was preparing to hawk the opening of his Presidential Library in Dallas, Texas, was convicted of war crimes?
