Ukraine, Intervention, and America’s Doublethink
With the deployment of Russian forces into Crimea and eastern Ukraine, the US-NATO propaganda machine has kicked into high gear. Putin has been portrayed as a tyrannical aggressor, while the Obama administration and its European allies have attempted to stake out the moral high ground, declaring that peace, respect for sovereignty and international law should be the guiding principles. Naturally, such rhetoric warrants closer analysis. -

Why I Don't Care For The Jews
Peridically, I do get comments and questions that always ask the same questions: Why do you "hate" the Jews so much? What have they ever done to you?.....The answer is that I have no hatred for anyone that is not evil, and from what we see with the machinations of this "tribe", they truly are very evil! I also need not even look at what they have done to me, personally, but at what they are doing to EVERYONE....I always ask people if they have actually sat down and read their Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, which is their blueprint for world domination....People must always reme

Tomorrow May Be Primary Day In Texas, But This Is NOT A State Of Miracles By Any Stretch Of The Imagination

I never did-- not for a moment. They have oil and they have rich people consuming conspicuously-- but normal Texans were in the same condition as everyone else impacted by the disastrous GOP economic agenda of the Bush years.
