Former President of Taiwan Chen Shui-bian was indicted for corruption on December 5 (2008).

Should students be banned from buying Custom papers?  

Two can play at "Disaster Capitalism".

How about a plan offering immediate relief, revenge (called balance for PR release), economic stimulus, and the feeling of being able to accomplish as encompassing an improvement to many lives as the counterparty has produced degradation.

"While [Barack Obama] wants to ban AR-15s, Palin shoots AR-15s, and apparently pretty well."

American and Singaporean activists combine efforts to start a letter-writing campaign to the United States Congress.

Missing from the discussion in nearly every US media report of the Russia-Georgia conflict is the fact that an important oil pipeline runs through Georgia, not far from South Ossetia, which is asserting its independence from Georgia.

There is less than obvious beauty in this world, often times, right under our noses, perhaps far away from the banks of the Hudson, or yet again, right along those banks but lost in the shuffle of daily life.

Bob Kendall's piece on 20 June where he notes "foreigners are buying out major assets..." reminds me of the hysteria when the Japanese were buying the Arco Building in LA, Pebble Beach and Rockefeller Centre.

It's an investment. And, they couldn't pick it up and take it to Japan. And, ironically, the Japanese over paid for everything.

Foreigners have historically invested in this country b ecause of our sound economy and political stability. They're buying more because the dollar is soft.

We are the foremost advocates of globalism; which has been good for every body. We can't pick and choose to be 'globalists' one minute and isolationists the next.

Get over it; get on with it; and stop freightening the average American with talk of recession or worse.

As was widely expected, on June 3, California Secretary of State Debra Bown confirmed that marriage equality opponents had successfully gathered over one million signatures which allows placement of a proposition on the November ballot that if passed, would overturn the California Supreme court decision.

Leading the local opposition to the court decision are a pair of Southern California businessmen, Howard Ahmanson, owner of Fieldstead & Co and Christian radio magnate Ed Atsinger. Both are evangelical Christians according to a May 27 report from Capital Weekly, a newspaper that covers California's state government.

But a virtual who's who of familiar right wing social conservative organizations have also converged on California and are making the overturning of the California court decision a priority. "There are a number of national religious right groups that are lending their resources to this effort," said Peter Montgomery, spokesperson at the People for the American Way, a liberal advocacy group based in Washington DC.

Here are some numbers liberals should keep in mind for the upcoming presidential election: 88, 75, 68, 69.

This month's decision by the California Supreme Court, overturning the state's ban on gay marriage, has launched widespread speculation about how the ruling will affect the upcoming election.

Believe it or not, Sec Spellings is already claiming that No Child Left Behind deserves credit for the modest increase in writing scores nation-wide. From a press release from the US Dept of Education.

"U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings today highlighted the results of The Nation's Report Card^TM: Writing 2007. Secretary Spellings commended educators and students for the significant progress made under No Child Left Behind."

This can't be true.
