First Ammendment Dies in Pittsburgh

Multiple military units attack citizens of Pittsburgh with "tear gas and sound cannons" as a reaction to an "unpermitted protest". There are even images of pepper gas being used against those to choose to speak their minds. This is ridiculous. What has this nation come to?

Growing Problem in Afghanistan=Bankruptcy

Here, Dr. Paul talks about foreign policies of the U.S. with Afghanistan and Obama's decisions on war and nation building. I think you'll find this very interesting. I do agree with a lot of what he says. Yet, Dr. Paul fails to address who this war is REALLY helping...

Children are Taught to Praise Obama in Music

Remember the scare about Obama's speech about doing well in school? Skeptical parents thought that it was an outrage. Those parents would tear out their hair if they heard about this one.

School children are being taught to sing songs that praise Obama. Now, I'm not one to be overly conservative, but isn't that considered brain-washing? These kids are probably in the second grade and have no idea what is going on in the world. I know that I wasn't too politically knowledgeable when I could hardly read. And isn't it a law that teachers are not to influence their students politically or talk about their political opinions? This is out of line.

Don't Believe in Global Warming?

My grandmother doesn't think global warming is a real issue. She doesn't even think it exists. I need to show her this... It's quite eye-opening if you have the patience to watch the whole video. However, if you don't have too much time on your hands, look at the last several minutes.

A Step Forward! ...In the Wrong Direction.

Recently, the Obama administration has been trying to get the EPA to regulate carbon emissions. However, Senator Murkowski (another Alaskan) is trying to ban the EPA from doing so. This seems more than slightly stupid. The entire world knows that we are digging ourselves into a deep hole with pollution, and here we have the opportunity to move ahead, yet some are still trying to block the path. What is happening to our used-to-be innovation?

Homosexuality Turns Socialist.... What's Next?

Looking at some blogs, I ran over this that literally made me do a double-take. Apparently, gay marriage is a step towards communism. This makes absolutely no sense and so it seems right that it was said by a conservative Republican Steve King. He spoke about it on a radio interview.

I hope most Americans can look at this and laugh. Otherwise, we've run into even bigger problems...

Obama's School Speech

Some parents are outraged by Obama's speech to school children, but the real question is why? Do they REALLY believe he is going to corrupt the young minds of America? I think it's ridiculous. After all, several other presidents have done the same thing before.

Shocking!

This is exactly what Tom Friedman means by "crowded" in his famous "hot, flat, and crowded." If we don't change our ways soon, crazy stuff will happen.

Health Care... Revolt?

Health care activist bites off his opponents finger in a dispute. Are actions like these really about health care or about something more? I believe there is an underlying issue that is not being said. What? We have yet to find out.

State of Denial?

Some believe it was a myth that China forced abortion in order to adhere to the "one child rule". I have found an article that claims otherwise. Though it might be slightly exaggerated to prove a point, this still is an issue that plagues (or enhances?) life for Chinese women.
