My Dreams:
To be a major part of the solution, and by all costs, avoid becoming a part of the problem.

We can only choose one... which is your poison of choice?

"The lesser of two evils" has always been the grain of salt and a part of the electoral process here the the U.S. and any other places where officials are elected into office. Which is to be your evil of choice? The a-typical war mongering "Good 'ole boy" with out-dated ideology that will maintain the current Bush policy that is tearing this country and the rest of the world apart? Or what appears for now to be the only other choice, someone who may not be perfect but is a far cry from "McBush"… Continue

"Black" enough to be "Black"?

I'm a realist, who deals with hard facts (proven ones). I'm not sure why some continue to overlook the fact that too many young black people are being misguided by our pop culture and no one is bold enough and has the balls to stand up and pull some eyelids open. And those that are are ridiculed, this rarely happens in the white community, they praise those who take a stand in their community.
Barack is not "black"? Do you believe someone of a mixed ethnicity/race (one of those being of African… Continue

Obama is the man! For reasons you may not like or appreciate, yet are intended for your own good nevertheless.

My opinion on the Jesse Jackson flap and it's deeper meanings.
http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2008/07/13/a_clash_of_generations_in_black_community/

Jesse Jackson is a slow (as in retarded) dinosaur. He is a minstrel in a suit who hates being a minstrel but can't help it. I agree wth Obama, Bill Cosby, and everyone else who believes the black community needs to suck it up and get it's s**it together, lot's of tough love, bring it on!

Black people can no longer blame the government (… Continue

NPR's All Thing's Considered

U.S.-Allied Sunni Groups Struggle Under Iraqi Control

The Sunni militias known as the Sons of Iraq, or Sahwa movement, were credited with helping to defeat al-Qaida in Iraq during the U.S. surge that began in 2007. They have fallen on hard times since coming under Iraqi government control a year ago, facing arrest and other troubles.

Iran Cleric's Funeral Becomes Opposition Protest

Further evidence that opposition to the Iranian government remains strong: Tens of thousands turned out for the funeral of a leading dissident cleric — Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri — in the holy Shiite city of Qum.

'Three-Hour Rule' To Address Tarmac Delays

Starting this spring, delayed airliners must return to a terminal or face hefty fines. They must also offer food and water, maintain lavatories and provide necessary medical attention. The outcry over scenes like this one from a stalled 2007 JetBlue flight promoted the new rules.

Eurostar To Resume Service Tuesday

Eurostar said it would resume its high-speed rail service linking Britain, France and Belgium on Tuesday after a three-day suspension that stranded tens of thousands of travelers. The traffic was suspended between Paris and London through the Channel tunnel as experts tried to discover what caused five trains to get stuck while attempting the passage on Friday.

Happy And Insured, Man Has Doubts On Overhaul

Dave Koenig has health insurance through work, and is happy with the plan. But as the health care debate drags on, he says he's losing faith in the overhaul plan. Koenig, who calls himself a conservative, says that at first he was open to President Obama's call to regulate the insurance industry to protect patients. But as lawmakers negotiate behind closed doors, and it's still unclear how much it will cost, Koenig is growing wary of the plan. And he's hoping his health insurance won't change when all is said and done.

Bing Vs. Google: A Weeklong Experiment

James Fallows, national correspondent for The Atlantic and news analyst for Weekend All Things Considered, talks to Michele Norris about his weeklong experiment using the search engine Bing instead of Google to help him track down facts for his latest Atlantic article.
