This Memorial Day, John Edwards Is Asking

That We All Take Responsibility For The Country We Love

And the brave men and women who protect us. As citizens, let’s volunteer in support of our troops, and offer our service to honor theirs. As Americans, let’s take a moment to join in prayer for our troops. And as patriots, let’s gather together this weekend and make our voices heard. It’s up to us. If we are loud enough, and clear enough, we can end this war. Because it really is possible to stop a president who believes he can do no wrong—it just takes people with the courage to do what’s right..........You can start here

When Others Were Silent

We Could Have Stop The Killing, But We Didn't

Howard Dean defended the party's handling of the Iraq funding bill Thursday amid criticism from the left that congressional leaders caved in to President Bush over the war. Dean said Democrats were holding Bush and the Iraqi government accountable in a way Republicans refused, a claim the GOP later denied........here

Dr. Laura, Her Soldier Son And MySpace

The soldier son of talk radio relationship counselor Laura Schlessinger is under investigation for a graphic personal Web page that one Army official has called "repulsive." The MySpace page, publicly available until Friday when it disappeared from the Internet. The Pentagon last week shut down access to a variety of video-sharing and social networking Internet sites, including MySpace, on its computer systems worldwide. Officials said the change was made to enhance security and protect a strained bandwidth, but critics worried that it might close a public window into the lives of deployed U.S. troops, some of which can be raw, frightening, violent and revealing.......here

Gore Blasts Bush

Gore writes, incompetence rules the day and Bush has pushed for Orwellian powers a la "1984."

While Gore stops short of flatly calling for the impeachment of Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, he certainly gives the impression that in his view such a move would be well deserved. He calls the president a lawbreaker, a liar and a man with the blood of thousands of innocent lives on his hands........more

BILL “FISH-SCENTED CIGAR” CLINTON IN THE NEWS

Former President Clinton said Tuesday that one his “great regrets” was failing to do more to bridge the economic and social gaps between white and black people in the United States.
Bridge the gap? And how would he have done that given all the scandals he was involved in? Given the corruptness of his administration–one where the most number of people in an administration were convicted of crimes; where the most number of people fled prosecution by leaving the country; where the most number of people pleaded the 5th amendment when questioned?......here

Where Have All The Right-Wing Lunatics Gone?
A French company with ties to the Castro regime -- its affiliate has built 11 resort hotels with the Cuban military -- now wants to bring its construction skills to the $1 billion tunnel at the Port of Miami. And the protesters? Busy boycotting the mom-and-pop businesses that advertise on an obscure AM radio program. This is what the mighty Miami Cuban Mafia has come to. Their nemesis is dying, their bitterness has grown old and their power has dwindled to sad experiments in self-parody.....here.......via sotp
