The first flag—which went up in 1999—dances on a 60-foot pole in Havana. The second, a larger one, went up in White springs. Next, SCV (Sons of Confederate Veterans) members hope to wave a third on a 100-foot pole in Hillsborough County near the Interstate exchange at I 4 and I 75........here

A crowd of over 100 gathered in Tampa to participate in the second day Sunday of a two-day training session for aspiring political candidates and people who want to work on political campaigns.

Howard Dean
Yesterday, despite overwhelming public opposition, President Bush commuted the sentence of Scooter Libby, the former White House Chief of Staff to Vice President Cheney who was convicted by a jury of lying about a matter of national security. As yet another example of the elitist attitude that defines Republicans in Washington, he shamelessly put partisan loyalties before the fundamental American value of fair and equal justice under the law.

Croatian Rock Star Flirts With The Nazi Past

For the Croatian rock star Marko Perkovic, it is a routine part of his performance: He shouts a well-known Croatian slogan from World War II and his fans respond with the Nazi salute. Photographs from the concert show youths wearing the black caps of the Nazi-backed Ustasha regime that ruled Croatia, and which was responsible for sending tens of thousands of Serbs, gypsies and Jews to their deaths in concentration camps......more

American Still No.1
Even the greatest empires hurt when they lose wars. It is not surprising then that Iraq weighs so heavily on the American psyche. Most Americans want to get out as soon as possible, surge or no surge; many more wish they had never invaded the country in the first place. But for a growing number of Americans the superpower's inability to impose its will on Mesopotamia is symptomatic of a deeper malaise........here

Africa Still Loves America
A new report charting global attitudes shows America's image sagging around the globe — but not in Africa, where the Stars and Stripes still symbolize strength and wealth. In fact, America is more popular in several African nations than even in America. Culturally, many Africans feel closer to the United States, where they perceive Africans and their influences have been more closely integrated than in Europe.......here

Howard Dean
Race Is About Values
It won’t be complex and detailed positions on the issues that win back the White House for Democrats in 2008, voters will make up their minds based on the values of the candidates for president. Nobody has made up his or her mind to support a candidate because of a 26-page health care plan, I don’t even remember all the details of my own plan.”............here

Ron Paul
How a Fringe Politician Took Over the Web
During the 2004 election, a web-savvy campaign staff helped turn Howard Dean's anti-war candidacy into the first online political phenomenon. But the Ron Paul frenzy seems to have sprung from the internet itself. Paul's libertarian message – he is against big government, the war, and pretty much anything that costs taxpayers money – has attracted a group of anti-establishment, tech-savvy supporters who have taken everyone by surprise........more

Ann Coulter Attacks John Edwards

"if I'm going to say anything about John Edwards in the future, I'll just wish he had been killed in a terrorist assassination plot."

A Letter From Paul Newman
More than the films, more than the awards - finding out that I was on Nixon's Enemies List meant that I was doing something right. I was proud to stand with Democrats against an imperial president back then. And I am proud now to stand with a new generation of Democrats against a president who poses what I believe to be the biggest internal threat to American democracy in my lifetime........here
