Loading tweets...I voted for George W. Bush in 2000. I’m not proud, but I did. At the time, I thought he provided the answers our country needed and he didn’t wear as much make-up as Al Gore. On September 12, 2001, I watched the Bush Administration’s response to 9/11 and I knew I made mistake in …

The Daily Kos
Over the course of the past week, I have listened and watched as many of the major media outlets in our nation tried to attack Sarah Palin, especially the New York Times and the various television networks owned by NBC. These obviously biased media outlets decided to run with less-than accurate leads and ended up having …

Thoughts on the RNC…
If the Republicans could some how capture Wednesday night, package it and open it every day from now until the election, they would be in good shape. In addition to the energizing speeches from former presidential candidates Mike Huckabee and Rudy Giuliani, Governor Sarah Palin delivered one of the most energizing speeches in political convention …

Hollywood's President
Later this week, HBO launches the latest season of their hit series Entourage, which chronicles the life and times of a Hollywood star and his posse. While I’m sure the writers take some liberties, for entertainment’s sake, in presenting the story lines, I’m convinced that Entourage paints a fairly accurate picture of Hollywood life. Everything …

The Barack-alypse!
Four years ago, I sat glued to the television as a then state senator, Barrack Obama, addressed the 2004 Democratic National Convention. I’ve written extensively on how Obama’s speech moved me to tears and the way it charged me to join the campaign for John Kerry. As a young, self-styled intellectual, Obama’s nuanced world view …

Unhappy Earth Day!
One thing that has remained constant with me throughout my life is my bewilderment with “yuppies.” Why? Well, the “yuppie” tends to be easily swayed by fads, especially ones where they’re made to feel that they are making a positive contribution to society. Perhaps no other movement has duped “yuppies” more than “global warming” …

(No title)
Looking back, I remember Barrack Obama’s Keynote Address at the 2004 Democratic National Convention like it was yesterday. As a bitter, recent college graduate, clinging to the liberal idealism of academia, I saw, in Obama, an end to the divisive nature of partisan politics. “Do we participate in the politics of cynicism, or do …

From the Archives: August 10, 2004
Please note, the following is the first of a multi-part series entitled, “From the Archives,” an attempt on my part to consolidate my previous blogs. The following entry, entitled, “Fear This,” was drafted following the 2004 Democratic National Convention, on August 10, 2004, and is extremely relevant in this election cycle. It’s amazing how my thoughts on …

Pacifistic Ponderings!
War confounds me! The simple theory that mass destruction, mass murder, and mass hysteria brings peace, harmony and justice. This paradox gained more reality throughout the course of the past two weeks due to the terrorist acts we experienced. Extremists attack our nation; the people grow outraged; the president feeds on emotionalism and charges …
