Revising History and Islamophobia
The issue of 'revising history' is an interesting one, and it is not limited to the American experience.

Obama's Iranian nuclear weapons policy a failure?
"The astonishing fact that Iran has been allowed to progress unimpeded to this point demonstrates that President Obama has been an abject failure in even his most fundamental responsibility of protecting the American people," said Arizona's U.S. Congressman Trent Franks.

The Third American Revolution
The Tenth Amendment Movement is the single most exciting development in the Third American Revolution. State legislatures across the nation are taking aim at federal dictates. These can't be dismissed as kooky fringe radicals.These are representatives of the people. It gives power back to the states. The Second American Revolution didn't destroy America in one election cycle. It has taken decades. And we won't over turn it this coming November. But we can start.

International Terrorism Plot Filed in US Supreme Court
The collaboration of the Courts, the Congress, and the Executive, to suppress the terrorism plot and seditious conspiracy within the government, and thereby to provide impunity to some 15,000 law-breaking government officials, serves to demonstrate the failure of the system of justice and governance of the United States.

A Missed Opportunity to Protect our Workers and Help our Economy
So many workers from so many different backgrounds and trades make up our state's workforce. They are some of the most talented and dedicated in the world. But their livelihoods are being threatened by foreign government practices like industry subsidization and currency manipulation.

Nothing tells the story of your family more accurately than your refrigerator. Not what's inside your refrigerator necessarily, although that would certainly tell a story, but it's what is hanging all over the outside of it that really speaks volumes.

Seven Orphans and Expulsion orders against Trees
In the past 48 hours we have returned to the nightmarish days of Oslo when we used to spend our time at funerals of Jews massacred by Arab terrorists. That is what happens when Israel sits down for "peace talks" with arch murderers like Abu Mazzen... Just a few weeks ago the government had once again made "confidence building gestures" for the Arabs and had removed even more roadblocks. We warned that this was a recipe for the murder of Jews but no one listened.

Thank You Mr. Jones
His deep voice and quick-firing speech left me uncertain and wondering if I'd understood his directions. It was clear he wasn't going to repeat them. It was also clear he expected his new eighth grade class to quickly engage in his topic of choice - social studies. Mr. Jones intimidated me.

Those of us who are fortunate to spend a lot of time on the beach call these people, "August Whites". Of course, this is not fair because it is obvious that these people have worked hard during the summer months. But, why does everything have to be fair?

Cordoba Mosque: A Strictly American Issue
John Moore of NewsTalk 1010 Radio's Moore in the Morning (Toronto) recently described in Canada's National Post the widespread American opposition to Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf's planned Cordoba Institute Mosque in New York City as "populist demagoguery" and "a grand and intellectually dishonest hysteria over Islam that mirrors the communist paranoia of the 1950s."

Restore America? Get out the Christian vote!
Too often, Christians are being misled about participation of their churches in the elective process. While pastors and church elders are prohibited from endorsing candidates or parties on behalf of their congregations because of the tax-exempt status of the church, the Internal Revenue Service has specifically stated that "activities intended to encourage people to participate in the election process, such as voter registration and get-out-the-vote drives, would not be prohibited political campaign activity if conducted in a nonpartisan manner."

Opinion Piece A Poorly Disguised Bit of Personal Animosity
The opinion article "Is the Pope Catholic?" by Romulus (Aug 22, 2010) is
a very poorly disguised bit of personal animosity that should be dealt
with privately rather than sowing discord in such a public fashion.

It was his perception that caused the outburst. "Why aren't there any managers at these sessions? Why aren't they required to attend, too?" he challenged. Hired to provide workshops on building trust in a workplace lacking it, I answered his question to the extent I could during that first session, "It's my understanding that everyone is attending," I offered. "But let me find out for sure and get back to you."
