1326. No Child Allowed To Advance Game By Lance Winslow
      Are we missing the boat in education of our next generation? Will we be able to shape the minds of innovation we need for the progression of our civilization? Can the; No Child Left Behind Act solve the problems in education? Many believe it will; yet others are not so sure. Most believe in education and mile markers for performance as an over all concept. However this could indeed cause a problem; you ask how so?Well, with "no Child Left behind" we end up teaching to the middle or the lower o…



1327. Cindy Sheehan – President Bush and the Accountability Moment By Michael Bresciani
      Death may not be dignified in any light but the way it is perceived, handled and finally dealt with can be under certain circumstances even less dignified. The cause Cindy Sheehan has undertaken may or may not be worthy depending on who you ask. I choose not to ask anyone but rather I would ask a question of a different sort. It is not a question of the Presidents moment of accountability but of her son’s accountability. I would ask this question to her or anyone who might dare to question his…



1328. Uncle Sam Cracks Down Online! By Jim Edwards
      In a move that rocked the online world and left many Internet marketers shaking in their boots, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) initiated a sweeping crackdown on what they termed "Internet Scammers" and "Deceptive Spammers."The FTC, along with state and federal officials, filed numerous criminal and civil law enforcement actions and froze the corporate and personal assets of some defendants.According to the FTC, they went after a wide array of deceptive schemes and illegal scams including a…

1330. YOUR COVENANT WITH DEATH - YOUR AGREEMENT WITH HELL . . . The US-Israel Strategic Alliance - Part I
      By Doug Krieger A STRATEGIC AND ESCHATOLOGICAL IMPERATIVE This week (ending December 3, 2005) in Washington, D.C., the United States and Israel, after a three-year hiatus, resumed their 'Strategic Dialogue.' This is different--very different. Something far more significant has commenced between the two allies facing the likes of a burgeoning insurgency fed by an Iranian President who insists that 'ISRAEL MUST BE WIPED OF THE MAP' and a resurgent Syrian-Hezbollah-Hamas (Baathist Socialist-Shiite-…



1331. Bio Attack Nation Unready By Lance Winslow
      We are told by out leadership that we risk loss of American life from a Bio-Attack. This is quite a scary notion. We have already allotted over 20 Billion US Dollars to the cause of prevention since 9-11. Tom Ridge indicated that Bio-Terrorism is amongst one of our biggest fears, as much or more than nuclear detonation within our borders. Meanwhile we have Pig Disease and Bird Flu running its course in China and the CDC, WHO, HHS and other organizations and agencies are warning of us an impend…



1332. Real ID for Illegal Immigration By Lance Winslow
      There are many who oppose the Real ID program to curb illegal immigration. They claim it is not fair to the illegal aliens and the attack the idea. They rant about the Republican Party and complain about the commander in chief. Yet when we ask them; “Your point is in all this sound and fury, young man? You disagree with REAL ID, is that it? Why? I am open for discussion - let’s debate the issues!”We agree humans are not perfect, that mankind has made mistakes and that we are doomed to repeat i…



1333. The Administration "Re-wronging" history
      Dick Cheney- November, 2005: 'The president and I cannot prevent certain politicians from losing their memory, or their backbone -- but we're not going to sit by and let them rewrite history...' Good point. DoD Transcript excerpt of Sec. Rumsfeld and Gen. Myers on Tuesday, February 10, 2004. Q: Mr. Secretary, you said in your opening remarks, sir -- you described it as two paths that nations can take, and you noted that Saddam Hussein, had he opened up his country to the U.N. resolutions, there …



1334. Arguing About Arguments, the Chinless, and North Korean Parrots...
      Wanna know something that I get asked about pretty frequently from people who contact me about this column? They ask when I might write one about my views on politics and world affairs.I really don’t know why it matters. My opinions are just that, only my opinions, and mean no more and no less than anyone else's. In the past I’ve studiously avoided writing about politics and world events because there are already tons of people out there who write about such subjects, and, to tell y’all the trut…



1335. PALS in Pakistan Part Four - A Nuclear Precedent
      The decision to provide another nuclear power with PALS technology is not unprecedented. The United States has transferred the technology successfully to Britain, France, and even to the Soviet Union in the aftermath of the Cuban missile crisis (Man). Pakistan has made indirect overtures to the United States in what seems to be a bid to obtain the devices, with Pakistani officials making public suggestions to their U.S. counterparts that cooperation of the U.S. with Pakistan on nuclear safety is…



1336. Senator Rick Insanetorum By Robert Crane
      Rick Santorum has finally written and published his obligatory pre-presidential campaign book entitled, “It Takes A Family: Conservatism and the Common Good”. The title is a very clever play on the book by the anti-Christ, Hillary Clinton, called, “It Takes A Village”. Personally, I think he got it all wrong and probably should have entitled it, “It Takes a Village Idiot: Neo-Conservatism and The Uncommon Bad”. The quotes from Senator Santorum’s book are already flowing through the media feedi…



1337. Let us Disband The FTC’s Franchising Division By Lance Winslow
      Previously Senator Dick Armey and his staff in 2000 to review seriously the important decision to scrutinize the FTC’s franchising division. Mr. Armey has sense retired. Today, I urge the Administration, the GAO, Senate Subcommittee and other governmental oversight bodies to curtail the efforts of the FTC to further over regulate the MUD (much unnecessary disclosure) plaguing our industry. How much should the FTC’s franchise group be downsized? We see by the introduction of a proposed change…



1338. Day 2: Liberia's Presidential Race Turns into Slugfest! By Edith Bawn
      AUGUST 16. Yesterday was not an easy day in Monrovia, as regular citizens quickly removed placards supporting their own presidential candidates from their cars for fear of being attacked by the Weah supporters. Political parties have begun to reshuffle their headquarters to distance themselves from the Weah candidates. Young people continue to line the roads for hours chanting, "No election, Weah got the key to the mansion."From the first sight of the crowd, one might think that Weah is a sur…



1339. Revelations From Katrina By Jean-Pierre Nziya Yambwa
      Respected by some, feared by others, fascinating all, America today raises a lot of questions about his leadership around the world. Some facts seem to question his real capacity to play alone his recognized world leadership role. His quest in space through NASA is slowing down while his European counterpart has, again, registered a successful mission. 9/11 attacks revealed a Colosses aux pieds d'argile. However, the war in Iraq amidst diplomatic frustrations and international values relativi…



1340. PALS in Pakistan Part Four – A Nuclear Precedent By Teve Torbes
      The decision to provide another nuclear power with PALS technology is not unprecedented.

1341. No Prosecutors Should Ever Hold Office By Lance Winslow
      It has become apparent in hindsight that those politicians who have previously been prosecutors should never hold office. They often have a negative skewed view of the world having seen some of the worst of humanity. Such a view makes them elitists and untrusting of those they will need to work with, get along with and complete projects with. If we allow those who actually believe that all people are evil then they are going to treat us like prisoners in our own country, because they believe t…



1342. Strike Two By S. D. Harrell
      Three reasons given by the Bush administration for going to war with Iraq used to be clear: weapons of mass destruction, the possible democratization of the Middle East, starting with Iraq, and of course, the constant refrain, “fight them over there so we don’t have to face them here.” But these reasons are muddled now by the facts of history and by the contradictory rhetoric coming out of the White House. So much for clarity.Recently, the administration signaled its willingness to give up the…



1343. The Origins of the Iraq Civil War - A Joke
      The immense carnage of WWI was caused by one gunshot in Yugoslavia, 'The shot heard round the world.' The Apocalypse, the sudden violent end of life on Earth forever has now been set in motion by a cartoon. Prior to 911, how many Americans knew where Afghanistan was? Today, Feb. 23, 2006, how many Americans know the difference between a Shiite and a Sunni Muslim? The cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad triggered a world wide Muslim stampede which is now escalating into an Iraqi civil war between th…



1344. Constitutional Amendment Needed on Sodomy Laws By Lance Winslow
      Many very nice and loving homosexual male couples want to get married. Sure they can have various personal vows and contractual relationships, share monies; even call themselves married; domestic partners or sole mates. Male homosexual marriages or civil unions seem to make sense because the homosexual male population as a whole is 560% more promiscuous as heterosexuals or regular folks. This promiscuity issue leaves them as at the highest possible risk of contracting HIV and AIDS. AIDS kills …



1345. Your Right Not to be Offended By Charles Stone
      Every time you turn around today you are almost sure to offend someone. In our land of victimhood it has become difficult to avoid saying or doing something which will cause someone else to feel bad or put upon or irritated.The events of September 11, 2001 have created a whole new group of people to be offended. It is nearly impossible to criticize the terrorists, (all Muslims), without evoking an outcry from secular and religious organizations ready and waiting to impart their own brand of po…



1346. Wahabism the Evil roots of Muslim Terrorism
      Writing about Wahabism and Salafi-Islam, could fill many books. I will however in this article, try to make clear why it is of tremendous importance in our time. Both movements are considered as the origin of Islamic terrorism. A lot of recent Islamic terrorists such as Osama Bin Laden, Ayman Al-Zawahiri, and Abu Musab Al Zarqawi, have been inspired by Wahabism. Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab (1703 - 1792 ) was an Arab theologian born in Saudi Arabia and can be considered as the founder of Wahabism…



1347. Taliban Infiltrates South Dakota Legislature
      Where are the last vestiges of Afghanistan's Taliban leaders hiding? Are they cowering in caves near the Pakistani border? Perhaps they own a condo complex in Karachi. More likely they are on a Dude Ranch in America's Heartland. Remember 1994? Religious fundamentalists overtook Afghanistan and trounced on that nation's women with a vengeance. Being draped in a burga and beaten in the streets was standard fair. Most doctors were banned from treating women, and voting - no way! Is history repeati…



1348. Internet + Democracy By Tony Macaroni
      History’s great promoters of “democracy”, whether they be Ancient Greek philosophers, American or French Revolutionaries, Communists, or English Parliamentarians, have in every case meant that “everybody” in a society should be able to take part in decision-making of the body politic. But how far has this ideal been realised? And is it time that we can take it further?In none of the cases cited above were their “democratic” methods completely or truly inclusive: “everybody” variably excluded w…



1349. Mass Transportation Efficiencies and Price Per Rider Theories By Lance Winslow
      Having redundancies and today’s technologies in transportation we have protected the system for nearly any eventuality. Today in California, the BART train tram system is trying to figure out how to continue with mounting costs and California’s financial debacle. The idea to fix this problem has been pondered and they have come to the conclusion they need to raise fees in order to save it.This is linear in thought and sure to destroy the integrity of confidence with the riders and patrons. Alt…



1350. The G-8 and Other Figureheads By Robert Baird
      The Presidents Before Washington:From the moment that the first Declaration of Independence in Mecklenburg, North Carolina took place (if not before) there were people leading the cause of American Independence. But the Presidents of the Continental Congress starting with Peyton Randolph should be considered as key figures in the history of this façade called America. The United States is actually many things other than a democracy despite what the media say. It is Synarchy or an oligarchy wra…
