Ten Commandments in the War on Poverty

ATLANTA, GA - Republican legislators are asking georgians to pray more, carry gun, and criminalizing abortion, among other things in order to combat poverty in the state. The latest weapon against hunger, foreclosures and jobless is a new law that will put the Ten Commandments in full view everywhere.

Democrats Ready For A Comeback

I know all of us are fed up with the Republican debates, the Republican ideas, and the waste of millions of dollars in negative advertising. How about [Rick] Santorum’s latest edict that President [Barack] Obama’s call for a college education is an attack on religion!

Forcing Climate Change or Slow Killing

Most people discover the reality of chemtrails by initially reading about it on the Internet and then going outside and looking up into the sky. They are shocked to realize that what they had been reading about (and studying photographs of) is also taking place right over their heads.

Miscarriage of Transportation Bill

The controversy over access to contraception first sparked by President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act law now in Congress, again. Republicans tried to add an amendment to a highway in the Senate that would allow employers to opt out of a new federal health-care mandate for their employees if they have religious objections. The bill suffered a miscarriage on the Blunt Amendment.
