How does Sarah Plain-lin answer questions

Posted by: aman on: October 5, 2008

This is ridiculously funny.

They missed a couple of winks from the “motherblinker”. That is important because, remember, she said, “You can’t Blink”.

Lou Dobbs and the liberal media

Posted by: aman on: October 1, 2008

The populist champion railing against the free market is really what gets my goat. This guy, who calls himself Mr. Independent, is the most opinionated hateful guys on TV but since he rails against Bush as well, he seems to escape under the radar.
If you hear some of his positions though, it doesn’t take long [...]

Of course, I have foreign policy experience

Posted by: aman on: October 1, 2008

McCain failed in his first executive decision. The first decision was choosing a running mate and he decided, rather foolishly, on the governor of Alaska – Sarah Palin. This lady, except being big on conservative wedge issues like Abortion and gun rights is the biggest doofus you could imagine in the position of a VP. [...]

I came across this Scott Ritter interview on Truthout a while back and some of what he said really stood out.The abject apathy of the US citizenry has always astounded me and I have always wondered what will it take for them to march and say they won’t take it anymore. For those that don’t [...]

5 reasons not to vote for Ron Paul

Posted by: aman on: December 20, 2007

There are plenty of reasons why you should vote for Ron Paul but try talking to a Ron Paul supporter and ask them to mention 1 reason why not to vote for Ron Paul and you will be called all sorts of names. They almost appear like the Bushies (thats slang for the Bush supporters) [...]

Cuban Missile Crisis and Bay of Pigs invasion one and same

Just how profoundly ignorant from a historical perspective you have to be if you are in the Bush regime or indeed a supporter of the Bush regime was exemplified by none other than Dana Perino; the White House press secretary.The White House spokesperson who often starts sentences with “…if we take a historical perspective” knows [...]

Welcome to the Fascist states of America

Posted by: aman on: November 30, 2007

It is incredible seeing the complete apathy of the populace in face of actions such as these. If actions such as holding a journalist from a Pulitzer prize winning AP journalistic team for 19 months without any charge alarmed you, that was only the tip of the iceberg.
Now the fire fighters are being trained to [...]

Guarding against US interference in Indian foreign policy

Posted by: aman on: November 29, 2007

What I have always failed to understand is the almost unconditional support to the Indo-US nuclear deal. Anyone with the temerity to question it and set some conditions has to be labelled a communist sissy without so much as a second thought to the concerns raised. Whether those concerns are valid or not could only [...]

Land of the free, with exceptions

Posted by: aman on: November 28, 2007

The highly delusional state of the US populace would be mildly entertaining, were it not for the gravity of the situation and the respect of basic human rights and the tenets of International law and democracy. United States is called the “land of the free and home of the brave”. Bravery, it seems, has taken [...]
