      • I'd Rather Risk Global Warming.
        04/30/07
        I'll make this quick, but I just read an article on-line that I can't help but comment on. It seems that singer Sheryl Crow has been touring the country with "An Inconvenient Truth" producer Laurie David in a biodiesel bus. Now I don't know exactly what the chemical make-up

      • Part II - Is The African American Community The Victim Of Failed Leadership?
        04/28/07
        In Part I of this series, the tragic state of 9 key indicators of African-American progress since the "Civil Rights Movement" were identified. This is only the tip of the iceberg of failed leadership in the African-American community. The prison population has nearly tripled, the high scho

      • Part I - Is The African American Community The Victim Of Failed Leadership?
        04/28/07
        I can see it now, the Reverends Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton are outraged that someone has the nerve to call them inept. Ezine Articles might not even publish this article because they might be concerned about backlash from various publics, civil rights advocates and the far left liberal wing of t

      • Claims Of Man-Made Global Warming Distract From More Likely Natural Causes.
        04/26/07
        At the 2007 Academy Awards, Al Gore's film An Inconvenient Truth, which documents the supposedly man-made global climate crisis, won the Oscar for Best Documentary. If mankind is truly responsible for global warming, then Gore himself is one of the biggest contributors. Public records show that

      • Don Imus and the Cesspool of PC and Double Standards.
        04/26/07
        Don Imus is out of a job for making an unwise joke about the Rutgers lady basketball team. MSNBC and CBS have completely cancelled his program. Leaving aside the fact that these two corporations canned his program despite the fact that Imus was joking and apologized ad nauseam, far bigger issues rem

      • Imus, Sharpton and the Racial Double Standard.
        04/24/07
        This past weekend, when I took my family to a nearby amusement park, I noticed several t-shirts worn by park patrons that made me think about a racial double standard that exists in this country, one that was recently highlighted by the firing of radio and television host Don Imus.

      • Global Warming Update: Eskimos Spot First Palm Tree.
        04/21/07
        In an especially inarguable event that global warming is proceeding apace, a group of Eskimos noticed - while hunting for caribou on the sort of unusually balmy day that they've been experiencing with ever-growing frequency - a tree they were not familiar with, growing high above the tundra.
      • Gun Control Is Not The Answer.
        04/19/07
        In the aftermath of the horrific events that took place on the Virginia Tech campus this week, many on the left are attempting to use this tragic situation to promote legislation for gun control. I can't count the number of times I've heard reporters and analysts use the term "which h

      • Stick & Stones and Words Now All Break Bones.
        04/15/07
        The recent media news frenzy about Don Imus and his totally inappropriate remarks have truly revealed what has happened to this country. Boy, if we make it to year 2010, we will be lucky and this is before we accept global warming.

        As a young child who was both taller and heavier than her

      • Schwarzenegger To Detroit Automakers: "Get Off Your Butt".
        04/15/07
        Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Terminator-turned-governor pulled no punches Wednesday in telling Detroit automakers to "get off your butt" and raise the fuel efficiency of their vehicles. And Schwarzenegger is also saying they are "still lagging behind." Tough.

        04/13/07
        The “N” word is out. The “F” word is out. “Ho” is out. “Scr..” is out. “Inte.......” is out. “Dag.” is out. “Di..” is out. “Qu...” is out. “Spi..” is out. I could go on all night long. Lo.. is in. Pea..... is in.

        Even Ezine will not allow the use of anything questionable. So much for free

        04/12/07
        Editors note: This article is being posted under California Issues because the people of the Great State of California have chosen to elect Nancy Pelosi and others like her to public office.

        It was early morning on Sept 11, 2001. When the President received word that America was under att

      • Media Bias Taints Perception of Iraq War.
        04/11/07
        There's general agreement among Americans that when it comes to the subject of bias in the mainstream media, Republicans and Democrats hold very different views. The former often complain that the major news organizations slant considerably to the left, and the latter often counter that the med

      • The Trap of Socialism and Communism - Sounds Good in the Beginning.
        04/08/07
        The current trends towards Socialism in the First World and the trends towards communism in the Third World are fairly alarming for those who study civilizations. Unfortunately the allure of socialism for the masses seems like a gods send, but it is a trap. It is a death spiral or flat spin for whic

      • Yes, It Really Is That Simple
        04/07/07
        You can tell when someone has a political agenda that doesn’t mesh with common sense. How you ask? It’s easy to do because one of the first comments to come out of their mouth is to claim “it’s not that simple” when you give a simple, common sense solution to the problem that they are looking to def

        04/06/07
        Immigration has been a hot topic for years and most people have strong opinions on the subject. Unfortunately, we rarely hear views from people who do not see the subject as black or white. Either people support immigration into this country or they are dead against it. Passions run high when discus

        Former vice-president Al Gore’s documentary “An Inconvenient Truth” won the Oscar for best documentary at the February 24 Academy Awards. It is unclear whether the documentary truly took the genre to a new artistic level or if Hollywood simply wanted to reward the message.
