Posted on 13. May, 2013 by Lucy Raed in Current Events, Politics
It is a rare state of affairs when you find the sane people of the United States agreeing with the Republican reactionary establishment on any point, but it is difficult (or at least politically inexpedient) to come out on the side of censorship in the United States.

A Trimphus For The Conquering Hero
Posted on 22. Jan, 2013 by Theodore Roe in Analysis, Current Events
Here we are, back at the beginning. Four years ago I wrote an article, Panem Et Circenses On The Potomac, chronicling the epic overindulgence of the raucous coronation of our Lord and Savior King Barack Obama. The 2008 Obama inauguration was such a spectacle of waste and excess that this comparison is not difficult to [...]

Today’s topic: Political chicanery with a Christmas twist! Dreaming Of A Working Government by Theodore Roe Three years ago I wrote a little ditty about how the Democrat-dominated legislature couldn’t stop writing stupid laws.

Supreme Court To Hear Landmark Gay Rights Cases
Posted on 09. Dec, 2012 by Lucy Raed in Analysis, Current Events
This has been a major final quarter of the year for sanity. First President Barack Obama soundly trounced his backwards, flip-flopping corporate raider opponent Mitt Romney, and has taken this mandate to the next level by refusing to extend tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans at the cost of the 99%. Then, in a move [...]

Obama’s Unbecoming Presidential Campaign
Posted on 25. Oct, 2012 by Dominic Godinez in Analysis, Politics
Who knew the fate of the presidential election would tip on the number of women voting as if their lady parts depend on it? Early on in the presidential race, Barrack Obama’s campaign made the calculation to use young, unmarried, female voters, a group that leans heavily Democratic as a punch card for a second [...]

Republicans Hope For A Rainy Day
Posted on 02. Oct, 2012 by Dominic Godinez in Current Events, Politics
Many months have passed since Mitt Romney became the presumptive Republican Party nominee for president of the United States. Far before that, President Barack Obama and his surrogates were at work defining Romney and the choice that voters will face on Election Day. Yet polls consistently find between five and ten percent of the electorate [...]
Political Contributions by Media Fail Americans
Posted on 26. Sep, 2012 by Dominic Godinez in Analysis, Politics
With six weeks until the presidential election, Mitt Romney is fighting an uphill battle against two opponents. Barack Obama is the main opponent, whom by all economic and foreign policy circumstances, should be a paper tiger on Election Day. His second opponent, which for the remainder of the race is increasingly asserting itself as his [...]
