    Gregg Withdraws Name For C/S

    i'm sure if all members of his cabinet are allowed to 'do their best' and he heeds their advice he will do a better job, but if he needs a group of 'yes sir' flunkeys his decisions will be adversely affected... i may not agree with his liberal views, but if thats all he wants to hear it...

    Military to Pledge Oath To Obama, Not Constitution

    somehow i think this is a load of hooieee. just as the pres takes an oath to 'protect' the constitution, so do all who take an oath to serve the country. the military serves the country ... not any person. the relationships are complicated, but involve civilian control of the military...

    protest on wall street ... so what!!! if they had broken a few windows, burned a couple of busses and looted some stores it might have made the news. if they had dragged a few ceo's out and hung them from the streetlamps then i can be reasonably sure it would made it on the nightly network...

    Bush is a Marxist

    it would be a refreshing change if a few of those who caused this mess went to jail for a few lifetimes. but first take all their assets away and return the money to the tresury. don't leave them a dime. let them and their familys serve as an example for the rest that 'if you fiddle you pay.'

    shoot to kill

    what many people in the 'developed' countries often fail to admit is for most of the world population life is much simpler. ie: no work no eat. there are few people who like going hungry. so for most of the world there are few 'lazys'. of course in our enlightened progressive nation the idea...
