W to attack yet another country?
It seems that the decider-in-chief, George W. Bush, is preparing the way for an attack on yet another country that does not have the capability or desire to attack the United States.

Government fails child
Here's yet another example of why the government should not be in the protection of children business. This article from yahoo.com describes the horrible life this little boy led, and how different, inefficient arms of the government failed to protect him.

What'll it be, soldier, Zoloft or Prozac?

Over 4,000 U.S. troops dead, $12 billion a month bill for Iraq and Afghanistan, hundreds of thousands of Iraqi men, women, and children dead, increased animosity toward the American empire, over 30 thousand permanently injured U.S. troops - need I go on?
The purpose of this unconstitutional war was what?
