"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, it is morally treasonable to the American public."
-- President Theodore
Roosevelt
"But I venture the challenging statement that if American democracy ceases to move forward as a living force, seeking day and night by peaceful means to better the lot of our citizens, then Fascism and Communism, aided, unconsciously perhaps, by old-line Tory Republicanism, will grow in strength in our land."
-- President Franklin D.
Roosevelt

A Voice from the Past
"Never has so much military and economic and diplomatic power been used so ineffectively, and if after all of this time, and all of this sacrifice, and all of this support, there is still no end in sight, then I say the time has come for the American people to turn to new leadership not tied to the mistakes and policies of the past."

It's the Lying, Stupid
"Now, by the way, any time you hear the United States government talking about wiretap, it requires -- a wiretap requires a court order. Nothing has changed, by the way. When we're talking about chasing down terrorists, we're talking about getting a court order before we do so.
"It's important for our fellow citizens to understand, when you think Patriot Act, constitutional guarantees are in place when it comes to doing what is necessary to protect our homeland, because we value the Constitution."
George W. "The Liar" Bush

- A Bad Attitude: A Novel from the Vietnam War --
read the reviews, read the first chapter, see for yourself why it's been called one of the best books
about the Vietnam War.
- Vietnam Casualty Lists: The men from Midland TX and Casper WY
who died in Vietnam.
Which of these guys died instead of George W. Bush and Dick Cheney, both of whom
had better things to do than go fight in a war that each of them professed to believe in?
- Political Guestbook: I'm still getting the occasional
hostile Monkey Mail, even though the election was over way last year. It's also kind of fun to
read over the lame attacks from the assorted lurkers, freepers, trolls and assholes who thought they were going
to get the best of me. Morons.
- Take a look at some political links and do some shopping
at the political bookstore before you go.

The government spent more than $40 million for the Whitewater and Monica Lewinsky
investigations but only $15 million for the 9/11 Commission to examine the terrorist attacks of Sep. 11, 2001.
What is wrong with this picture?
