The United States founded, financed, and developed the internet and continues to fund it. So far it has remained tax-free.

Some UN member countries, notably China, Syria, Brazil and Ghana, not exactly our staunchest friends are involved in a movement to have the UN take over the Internet. They are already discussing taxing it.

Even if it was a good idea to change management, I can’t think of anything more appalling than turning it over to the most corrupt and inept organization on the face of this earth.

President Bush is opposed to any turnover. How our representatives in congress feel is not known at this moment, but you can be sure there are some that will agree to give it away. Remember we still have some of the ilk that gave away the Panama Canal, which was minor compared to this issue. Keep your attention focused on them and if you find any leaning in that direction be sure to voice your objections.

This is a very crucial matter that cannot be ignored. We do have to take into consideration the rest of the world. If we don’t some country like China might institute a separate internet. This could result in a fragmented Internet which could have catastrophic consequences, such as two computers finding different web sites at the same address, or some other other dire results..

Spam is one of the big issues for all countries and it’s a major problem, but turning the Internet over to the UN won’t solve it. If the UN wishes to help solve these problems, fine bring it up for discussion in the General Assembly.

Mitt RomneyFormer Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney thumped his nearest Republican opponent, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, in this week's Florida primary, carrying all of the state's 50 delegates.

And he did so with the help of a super PAC, a new breed of political-action committee that can raise and spend unlimited amounts of cash from from corporations, unions, individuals and associations.

Federal Election Commission records show that the Restore Our Future independent expenditure-only committee, or super PAC, had more than $23.6 million in cash on hand at the end of 2011. The super PAC, which is supporting Romney's bid for president, actually had more money in the bank than the candidate himself, who reported having $20 million at the end of the year.

And that super PAC spent millions buying attack ads criticizing Gingrich.

So how do super PACs work? What laws govern them? How did they come into being? And how closely are they allowed to work with the actual candidates? Here are a few questions and answers about super PACs.

A popular political party that rose to tremendous power in the 20th century, the Republican party redefined the nation's political agenda and dramatically reshaped the role of government in the private lives of its citizens. The resilience of the party was observed throughout such morally testing times as the Nixon resignation and the Iran-Contra affair hearings. The party was symbolized by an elephant and possessed the animal-like quality of stubbornness that was often imitated but never duplic…

The Capitalist system produces two classes: the Proletariat class and the Capitalist class. The first class produces all of the wealth of society, according to the instructions of the Capitalist class. The Capitalist class is composed of investors, businessmen, entrepreneurs, all persons who are in possession of the means of production. We are all aware of the variation of this class. There is the small business owner, who might make anywhere in between $50,000 and $250,000 in a year. The…

Israel likes to pride itself on being a Western nation, and in too many ways (idolatry and immorality) it is. However, in too many other ways their bought and paid for leaders act like they're old-style Russian Communists who hate religion and the religious and will exert a brazen double-standard in enabling the left to get away with murder (remember Yitzhak Rabin?) and persecute the right for any trumped up charge or wild accusation. Those precious Israelis of American descent are particularly…

Tonight I resigned myself to the fact that this is the last Eurovision Song Contest I shall ever watch. In fairness the only reason I did watch it was due to media reports mentioning that steps had been taken to try and mitigate the blatant vote rigging that takes place each time the contest is aired. I should have known better.I suppose the early warning signs were there before I even sat down to witness this debacle. My mother has long stopped watching the show. When I spoke to her on the phon…
