Socialism vs. Capitalism: The Showdown
(

Because I had to. I think socialism gets an unfair reputation because of the Soviet Union. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was as socialist as it was made of republics, yet "republic" hasn't been defamed. So, anyone else out there favor the poor above the rich? Or, more interestin...

Why does George Will and Rush Limbaugh hate the Chevy Volt?

I find it quite odd that both the brainy, stuffy wing of the American right-wing (that would be George Will), as well as the obese, uncouth wing of the American right-wing (that would obviously be Rush Limbaugh) are both such haters of the Chevy Volt. It's one thing to doubt the commercial viability of...

Israel vs. Palestine

This issue stirs up a lot in people, but I think it's an important discussion, as it is a major source of conflict. Personally, I'm torn between support for the 1947 UN Partition Plan and the creation of a new state without official religion, that doesn't favor one group or the other. However, the forme...

Trump for President ???

Just saw Donald Trump being interviewed by George Stephanopoulos and it seems like he's serious about running for president (as a Rep). Anyone think he stands a chance? I cringe at the thought of a debate between Trump & Palin--media would love it. How much more circus would Trump inject into...

Apparently now Senators Lugar, Voinovich, Snowe and Collins might vote to overturn the Republican filibuster on the defense bill with DADT, in exchange for an extended debate on a number of other issues in the bill. It's a sad thing that DADT still exists, even though the large majority of Americans...

Next DoD...Vote now
(Preview)
The next DoD will have his hands full because we are talking not only about Afghanistan and Iraq, but DADT. Obama is in the precarios position that Clinton was back in 94. He chose Cohen. If I was in his position I would pick an R from a state where the gov is a D. My actual pick would be Lieberman.
