  • Copenhagen at the Crossroads; Adaptation or Mitigation?  By : Klaus H Hemsath
    In Copenhagen, world governments can choose adaptation or mitigation for dealing with global warming. Adaptation will result in a slow and protracted decay of world economies.

  • Kyoto Protocol in the Limelight  By : Klaus H Hemsath

Only strong economies can provide opportunities for growing populations. This article introduces such a new approach to climate control.

  • War - What Is It Good For? - Absolutely Everything  By : Howard Jacobs
    War is a horrifying event. Unlike a natural disaster, it seems that reasonable people should have found a way to avoid it by now. However, as frightening and insane as war is, the idea of not going to war while mad men are committing atrocities is inexcusable. In the real world, mad men can't be reasoned with. It is the reasonable people who often have to act more like mad men in order to defeat them. That's a sad reality.
  • Who Will Win in Copenhagen?  By : Klaus H Hemsath
    U.S. Chamber of Commerce position is indefensible. Growing world economies are producing escalating greenhouse gas emissions. Severe global overheating will change climates dramatically. Rising sea levels, flooding, violent windstorms, and extensive droughts will destroy world economies and will cause economic collapse. World economies must agree on producing renewable energy supplies. Fossil fuel burning must and can be halted completely.

  • Copenhagen Can Open New Era of Clean and Economical Energies  By : Klaus H Hemsath
    Growing world economies are producing escalating greenhouse gas emissions. The Kyoto Protocol is ineffective in halting or reducing atmospheric carbon dioxide accumulation.

World governments must develop supplies of clean and economical energies.

Changeover from fossil fuels to emission free, renewable energies will last decades and must begin soon.

  • Ron Paul & the War on Terror  By : Ruchir jain
    Nearly six years ago, on September 11th, 2001, a criminal act occurred in New York, New York. It was broadcast around the world. I remember that on that day I called my mother and told her to turn on the TV while I could only listen to the radio because I was at work. I remember telling her that we were at war. It was a very frightening day I’ll never forget. Many people will never forget that day. A couple of days later President Bush declared a war on terror. As of this moment, it looks like a war that will never end.

  • Tale of 2 Journalists; Roxana Saberi and Sam Dodson  By : preeti sharma
    I have recently written separate commentaries on two jailed journalists. One, Roxana Saberi, has received a great deal of attention from the mainstream media and her case has been widely reported on and disseminated across the globe. The other case is that of Sam Dodson. His case has gotten virtually no attention from the mainstream media. As he languishes in a jail cell refusing to eat his plight has only been discussed on few liberty oriented blogs. I begin to wonder why this should be and thought an examination of the differences between the two cases might shed some light on this phenomeno

  • Africa buries her head in sand as looters drain coffers  By : masood ahmed
    The most momentous news to come out of Kenya these past few days was not the celebratory roar by supporters of the winners of respective ODMs presidential nominations.

    It was the deafening silence that attended the release of a report linking allies of former President Daniel Moi to massive looting that allegedly saw billions of dollars taken out for safekeeping and investment out of the country.

    One searched in vain for clamour for action by politicians and citizens in general to, at the very least, establish the veracity of the Kroll Report. Instead, the Government Spokesman was on the fro

  • Why Kyoto and Copenhagen are Duds  By : Klaus H Hemsath
    In December of 2009, representatives of most countries will congregate in Copenhagen. The meeting is supposed to extend, redefine, and agree on more severe carbon emission limits. The Kyoto concept of reducing global warming is deeply flawed. It must be replaced by a new, more effective approach. Novel concepts are emerging but are not yet considered. The meeting will be a failure unless China or other Asian countries bring new ideas.

  • Blagojevich, the Media & the Race Card  By : Aafreen
    I don´t like to write about politics. That last statement might come as a surprise to some of my regular readers. "Szandor," you might think, "You love to write about politics. You do it all the time." Well, the last part of that statement may be true, but the first part is actually a misconception. I write about politics because I feel I have to. Given the choice I´d much rather write a horror novel or some fantasy. That´s what I really consider myself good at. I love to let my imagination run wild.

    I read very few other writers who share my views on politics, however, even though I speak to
  • Ron 'Speed Racer' Paul  By : sheetal vadhera
    When I was a child, my friends and I used to rush home from school to watch the next installment of the cartoon "Speed Racer." It was my favorite cartoon. For whatever reason, I was always anxious to see how Speed would get out of the trouble he was in at the end of the last episode and what new problems awaited him. I remember these as happy times. I was spending time with my friends. After the program, we would often go outside and run around like kids do, but for that half hour we were totally engrossed with Speed Racer's world.
  • What U.S. Cities Are Doing to Promote New Construction  By : dane-14388
    New construction has all but come to a screeching halt in most major cities throughout the U.S. Some cities, however, are taking the bull by the horns, and giving new construction a shot in the arm through new incentives.
  • What is Easy v what is right?  By : abdullah
    Sometimes we can find the most appropriate words in the least likely places. The other night I was watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Toward the end of the movie the headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, says, "There are dark times ahead. Soon we will all have to choose between what is right and what is easy." When I heard these words I thought they were appropriate for these times.
  • The Presumptive Republican Nominee & That Other Guy  By : shaikh Asif
    I’ve noticed lately that the media has taken to calling John McCain the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. It’s a strange sort of twist considering that a couple months ago they seemed so certain that McCain was the Republican presidential nominee. It wasn’t so long ago that the media was crowing that all other Republican candidates had dropped out. Yet today we suddenly hear again and again that McCain is the presumptive nominee. Why the change of heart? Why is the language suddenly so blatantly changed?

  • Ron Paul Promises Nothing  By : sonu dhankhar
    Politicians make a lot of promises to a lot of people. That’s just the nature of the beast. They pander to the lowest common denominator in order to try to get votes. The politicians in this presidential contest are no different.
  • The Road to Freedom is Paved With Disobedience  By : bilal
    You have most likely broken the law. As you sit there right now, reading this, you are probably doing or have done something recently that has transgressed some statute, some rule of government. You haven’t done anything to harm another, you haven’t stolen or damaged the property of another, and yet it is likely that those who rule over you have written some words down on a piece of paper somewhere, called it a law, and now they expect you to know this and obey its dictates. The absurdity of this system is clear for all to see, and yet you are at the mercy of those who call themselves “servant
  • Princess Diana Murder: A Parade Of Patsies…  By : Prash
    No self-respecting assassination plot is complete without a cast of patsies and this one is no different. This plot in fact has more than its fair share of patsies! The word paparazzi became common lingo after the night that Princess Diana was killed for the reason that they were the first set of patsies.
  • The Ron Paul Pandemic  By : PAWAN SINGH
    Whether you like him or not, Ron Paul has become a worldwide phenomenon. His banners fly in the skies over US cities. His signs are springing up alongside our nation’s highways. Bumper stickers are appearing on cars, it seems almost spontaneously. Certain days of commemoration are set up to donate on his behalf. His supporters show up in droves to wave signs and inform the uninformed of Ron Paul’s message of peace, hope and freedom. He even has a blimp to rival Goodyear’s paid for by private citizens to help spread his revolution.
  • An Open Reply to Help Senator Durbin Better Understand the 'Read the Bills Act'  By : mufiz
    I recently used the DownsizeDC.org website to contact my representative and the senators from Illinois and tell them I support the "Read the Bills Act" and that I want them to vote for it. Senator Dick Durbin (well, probably not him personally but his staff) actually took the time to shoot me an email. This is very kind of his office to do, for it at least acknowledges me as a human individual and lets me know that they did take the time to read over my concerns, which is more than either my representative or Senator Obama did. Of course, Senator Obama can be forgiven because he is probably bu
  • A Day In A Life Under Obamacare  By : Howard Jacobs
    The health care proposal that has been offered up to the American people is against everything this country is supposed to stand for, not the least of which is personal responsibility and the freedom to take care of ourselves and our families. It places a dollar value on human life -- not on the costs of saving the life, but on the life itself. So what would a world look like under such a plan?
  • Princess Diana Crash: It Was A Blatant Lie When They Said That Her Injuries Were Fatal!  By : Mantosh
    The injury that killed Princess Diana although critical was not fatal and in fact former President Ronald Reagan survived a similar injury when he was shot by John Hinckley in 1981! Surely if a 70 year old man could have survived such an injury why not a 36 year old woman in good health?

    The French doctors who were part of the team that tried to resuscitate Princess Diana at the hospital following the crash cited a tear in the left pulmonary vein as the source of internal bleeding that ultimately led to her death...there was no mention of other specific lesions!
  • American Flag - The Symbol Of Our Nation's Strength &Unity  By : altaf
    American flag rules were established in 1942. Congress enacted this Code to provide guidelines and rules to ensure the American flag continues to receive the respect it deserves. Many of the regulations provided in the Code are well known, however some of the American flag rules are more obscure. The American flag rules cover everything from folding, placement, and lighting. Understanding the Code will ensure that you give this national treasure proper attention.
  • Politicians, Gods & Messiahs  By : charu102
    I heard a conversation take place the other day where one person was explaining to another how he felt about Barack Obama. He told this woman that to him, and to people in his generation, Barack Obama represented the same hope that Jack Kennedy had represented to that generation. This statement sent shivers down my spine. Here was a man in his late fifties not only comparing Barack Obama to John F. Kennedy, (no offense, but Mr. Obama is no John F. Kennedy) but he's hanging his hopes and dreams on one individual who has an undetermined agenda, may have a questionable past, and has a collectivis
  • A Modest Proposal For Healthcare  By : Howard Jacobs
    In 1729, Jonathan Swift wrote a legendary essay that sarcastically spoke to the injustice of his day in Ireland. I have tried to recreate that essay and modify it to our modern day. Almost 300 years later, injustice still exists and the insane solutions offered to solve the problems are just as bad now as they were back then in Ireland. I hope that I have done justice to this great work of Jonathan Swift and I thank him for his inspiration.
  • Big Bailout, Shafting the Honest Folk  By : Yusuf Shaikh
    Were you paying attention? Did you hear them speaking? Did you listen to what they were saying? Perhaps you did, but I can say this, I don't believe they listened to you. In fact, they more or less proved they don't care about you one iota, unless you happen to be one of their wealthy friends.

    The 700 billion dollar bailout congress passed on Oct. 3rd, 2008 has ballooned and will continue to do so. It will go to the banks and to the lobbyists who support the cabal in Washington, DC. Though it is your money to be stolen from you in the form of taxes, when it comes back to you
  • ISA – Obama, the Democrats & the Mass Media Betray US Again  By : blinksolutions17@gmail.com
    In the year 2006, well before the new century was more than a decade old, the American people decided they´d had enough of the Republicans´ shenanigans. Specifically, they´d had enough of George W. Bush and his administration lying us into war, violating the constitution and doing its best to shred that fine document, the legacy of our founding fathers. Before the November election, there seemed to be an electricity in the air. People were fed up then and were ready to elect new faces, new ideas, into congress to force change in the direction of the old regime, something George Bush continuous
  • Mr. Obama's Magical Oratorical Stimulus  By : farooque
    A couple of days ago, Mr. Obama addressed his fellow Democrats. He gave a speech which some in the media characterized as partisan and derisive to the Republicans who have opposed his stimulus plan all along. I have to admit, Mr. Obama is a good public speaker. Most politicians are. It's tough to obtain high office as an elected official if you're not. I listened to some of Mr. Obama's speech and I must say that he said a number of things that I agree with him about. There is a problem, however. Like most politicians, Mr. Obama has become very adept at the art of doublespeak. He says one thing
  • Courtrooms, Cameras, Police, Kop busters &Yolanda Madden  By : scorpioamit
    Here in Illinois, at least in DuPage County, when one walks into the county courthouse one is not allowed to take so much as a camera phone in. I´ve often wondered about this. I´ve thought to myself, at times, "I wonder what they´re so afraid of." It seems to me that this is a public building, so aren´t the citizens of the county the actual owners? If they want to film on their own property, shouldn´t they be able to do so with impunity? If they want to take pictures of their public servants, doesn´t it make sense that they should be able to? Other counties in other states allow cameras and fi
  • New Eyewitness Saw Several Men In The Tunnel Moments Before The Crash That killed Princess Diana  By : suthar96
    After dining at the Ritz Hotel Dodis and Princess Diana's intention was to head back to Dodis flat located at Rue Arsene Houssaye. The shortest and quickest way to get there would have been to turn onto the Place de la Concorde and then make their way along the Avenue de Champ Elysees. But for some reason they didn't take this most obvious of routes but took the one that lead the Mercedes through the Point d'Alma tunnel.why was that.

    The incident was taken so seriously that the Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, herself was drawn into it. She personally apologised to the offended presidential contestants. It is not every day that the US Secretary of State gets involved in procedural matters such as passports any more than Kenya is Minister for Foreign Affairs engages in similar bureaucratic affairs. Ordinarily, such prominent figures devote their time to policy concerns.

    My fear is that by pushing a bill through so rapidly and then the guidelines written, is going to be a disaster!

    Ben Franklin's quote "Those who are willing to give up a little freedom for a little security, wind up with neither freedom, nor security" was used often by liberals during the Bush administration. Today we have a president who is willing to sacrifice our freedom of choice to do what we feel is in our best interests. In every area of life, the government is pushing its way into our lives - all in the name of "security".
