• Bush Doctrine- Changes in American Foreign Policy

  Why did the US remove a dictator it once supported and replace his government with a representative democracy?

• John Kerry in 2008?

  As a man who did not vote in November 2000 and 2004 (or in any U.S. election since 1992 for that matter), I was able to consider the U.S. presidential candidates, George W. Bush and John F. Kerry, without a great deal of passion.

• Separating Church and State

  Trying to separate law from religion is like separating the... well, the church from state. Make sense? I'm glad it does to you because the whole notion is contradictory to my sensibilities.

• Supreme Court Fails to Understand Constitution

  The Supreme court ruled on Monday that the Ten Commandments may be displayed outside on government property but not inside the courthouse. The liberal Supreme Court has once again relied upon the the false doctrine of the Separation between Church and State. The First Amendment states "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

• Supreme Court in Contempt of the Nation

  One of the best writers I know questioned whether or not I understood the full scope of the Supreme Court ruling on "The Great Land Grab." This has been a busy week, and as news broke all around me I found myself pre-thinking potential editorials. I mentally captured them, made myself a promise to paint each picture, but they had to come at the proper moment for effect. America hears today, contemplates tomorrow, and takes sides at various points along the way. So I'd decided to wait because I knew which side I wanted to say what I wanted to say to, but I had to give them time to get there. Because everybody knows what has just happened, it took less time for disbelief to wash away, and now I can express the "what we're going to do about it"...which is what people are really waiting to hear.

• Weekly Artist Overview: The Sex Pistols

  There are few bands in the history of rock that have left a greater impression in such a short time as the Sex Pistols. The band was together for about two years, they never charted a single in America, and they never recorded an album together; their lone album was a singles collection.
