Article in The Week magazine
Posted: Apr 6, 2015
titled "We were once as depraved as ISIS." I will paraphrase: In 1569 Protestant English troops massacred every Irish Catholic they found, beheaded the corpses and laid the heads in a path to the British commander's tent. Later, the Earl of Essex hunted down and butchered 400 women and children, etc., etc. Queen Elizabeth I approved. Different religious factions have been slaughtering one another for centuries and guess what - Obama wasn't there! And in case you are not familiar with The Week, it presents both liberal and conserative points of view.

Anyone Read Parade Magazine This Week?Dec 03, 2012
Good article on Howard Buffet, Warren's son. Just a paragraph or two here, but I went to his foundation and read some of the articles posted in thumbnails, speeches, etc. Eye-opening to say the least. Because of his large farm, he not only feeds the hungry, but teaches them farming, to almost the whole world with the exception of a few countries. So my point is that not all "rich" people are greedy CEOs. In the land of plenty, more than 50 million Americans, including one ...
An Article From A German MagazineDec 03, 2009
Never before has a speech by President Barack Obama felt as false as his Tuesday address announcing America's new strategy for Afghanistan. It seemed like a campaign speech combined with Bush rhetoric -- and left both dreamers and realists feeling distraught. Just minutes before the president took the stage inside Eisenhower Hall, the gathered cadets were asked to respond "enthusiastically" to the speech. But it didn't help: The soldiers' reception was cool. One ...

Saw This In A Magazine...smFeb 25, 2013
A little 5-year-old boy came home from kindergarten one day and asked his parents to buy him an IPad. His parents told him that he was too young for an IPad, that it was too expensive, and why did he need to bring an IPad to school. The boy told them that Billy had one and asked why he couldn't have one. Again, they asked the boy what he would do with an IPad in kindergarten, and he told them he would cover his eye with it when they played pirates. ...

According To Smart Money Magazine, Here Is What Corporations Are DoingMar 12, 2011
"Yes, companies have boosted profits—to near-record levels—by slashing costs." That's also what I have been seeing. The companies are making more money than ever before, taking advantage of those tax breaks, but they are pleasing stockholders by cutting costs (and people) in order to do it. That's very good business for them, but not so much for Americans who need to work. This is not a political comment, because it has been happening under both administrations. ...

Benghazi: Similar to five other government reports, the one released by the House Intelligence Committee on Friday left Republicans in the same position they have been in for two years: with little evidence to support their most damning critiques of how the Obama administration, and then-Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, responded to the attacks.

Netanyahu This WeekFeb 28, 2015
So, they say Biden and some "top" Democrats will not be attending. I understand the sentiment, and they can always watch on CSPAN and get the info, I suppose, but I do think they should listen, even if they don't believe he should be here, which I agree, he shouldn't. Boehner has made a large error and Republicans supporting him are being very destructive to our country's image in the world, not to mention further fracturing Congress. "For starters, it’s completely unc ...

He will be spending so much time every day this week talking about the economy, the deficit, what's wrong and how to fix it (hopefully). I can't remember what else he'll be talking about, but it sounds interesting. Right now, he's talking about the bribes in Afghan...$13.5B are spent bribing people, loaded on pallets in Pakistan and shipped to Dubai. They have it on tape now. If you can't watch it, it will probably be on line tomorrow. ...
