The Success of the Minority
The past year marked a massive change for the Republican party. For the first year in over a decade, the GOP found itself the minority party in both houses of Congress. Since the midterm elections of 1994, the Republican Party retained constant control of the legislative branch. Coupled with the two elections of President […]
The Wrong Agenda
The race for the Democratic Party’s Presidential nomination has heated up between Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Much of their time has been spent bantering back and forth about each other’s experience on dealing with various issues, chiefly foreign policy. Recently, however, things have gotten slightly messier. Once again, the Democratic Party has proven […]

The past week played host to two major news events. The first was the visit to Columbia University by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. The second was the increasingly visible struggle in Myanmar for political and social liberty and the institution of democracy.

Don’t Buy the Lies
Over the past two months, there has been a frenzy of media attention over the takeover of P&O (a London-based company) by Dubai Ports World (a United Arab Emirates company). This was suddenly ended when the company agreed to sell their American operations to an American shipping company.
Both Republican and Democratic politicians have been outspoken […]
I’m a Reporter, Believe Everything I Say.
I thought I’d get back in the swing of things by writing about the newest additions to the Book Quotes and Passages Page. The big chunks are from James Agee, a brilliant author who wrote Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, a book about the Depression.
