Taking over post-Arnold California

Mickey Z. interviews Richard Oxman… What do you think of Obama’s reaction to the Gates incident? Who killed Michael Jackson? Why did Palin resign? Why are 90% of the large fish in the ocean gone? Which question doesn’t belong? California-based organizer, educator, activist-writer, and playwright (and, oh yes, home schooling father and devoted spouse) Richard Oxman knows the answer. He’s more than aware that our current system – our very culture – is designed to shove the “big” questions... Read article

Obama And The Deadline For Closing Guantánamo: It’s Worse Than You Think

When the Obama administration’s Detention Policy Task Force, established by Executive Order on the President’s second day in office, conceded last week that it would miss its six-month deadline to issue its recommendations about how to close Guantánamo, many observers focused on whether this meant that Obama would fail to meet his deadline of Jan 21, 2010 for the closure of the prison, and missed the bigger story, which was only revealed through close scrutiny of the Task Force’s five-page interim report (PDF). Disturbingly,... Read article

Britannia Ruled by Knaves

Savage Banned to Fill White Man Quota… When I first heard that radio host Michael Savage had been banned from traveling to England along with an assortment of Moslem terrorists and other miscreants, my first thought was that the public relations arm of the politically correct thought police had struck again. It only made sense. Given how Britain is now bedeviled by Islamic jihadists, it had a legitimate reason to keep their most zealous fellows from the nation’s increasingly volatile Moslem masses. Yet the spineless... Read article

How US Rabbis & Israel Traffic In Human Organs & Money Laundering

“A KIDNEY BY ANY OTHER NAME WOULD SMELL AS SOUR,” can be said of the recent organ-trafficking and money-laundering FBI sting operation which implicated five Talmudic rabbis from New York and neighboring New Jersey. This international rabbinical operation spanned from Jewish-entrenched New York to the Jewish state of Israel. The FBI used an informant, a Talmudic Jew named Solomon Dwek, to approach the rabbis — who were from the Syrian Jewish community in Brooklyn NY and Deal NJ — to help hide his assets. Deal is a... Read article

Black America Devastated By Mass Immigration

Each week, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, majority leaders of the U.S. House and Senate of the United States—shout grandiose proclamations about their efforts to make work, housing and education better for all Americans. Unfortunately, for the past 20 years, both individuals failed Black America.  Reid and Pelosi encouraged, without batting an eye, the slave labor invasion from Mexico.  Both voted for insourcing, outsourcing and offshoring of jobs that displaced and undermined millions of Black Americans.  Both watched... Read article

The Democrats vs. Public Education

Public education in the United States is under heavy attack. And because a so-called “progressive” President is leading the charge, many education activists have been lulled to sleep while on lookout duty. Obama recently announced his “race to the top” program to “reform” education. Much like Bush’s No Child Left Behind, Obama’s plan represents progress for education in name only. In reality, Obama’s plan is to lure cash-starved schools into a “competition” to accept federal funds, with dangerous... Read article

The American Revolution Revisited

[Note: My son, Tim, writes today’s column. He is an attorney who received his Juris Doctor degree from Cumberland School of Law in Birmingham, Alabama. He is a former prosecutor for the Florida State Attorney’s Office and now owns his own private law practice. He is married to the former Miss Jennifer Hanssen.] Let’s be honest, America is facing the same legal, moral and ethical questions that our Founding generation did, especially regarding the issue of “Who Is Sovereign in the United States.”... Read article

21st Century Climate Blueprints

Perspective from the recent History of the Atmosphere… The Earth surface temperature reflects the net balance between incoming solar (shortwave) radiation and outgoing terrestrial (long wave) radiation (Kiehl and Trenberth, 1997 [1]).  The severe disturbance of the energy balance of the atmosphere ensuing from the emission of over 320 billion tons of carbon since 1750 threatens a shift in the state of the atmosphere/ocean system to ice free greenhouse Earth conditions.  Based on the recent Copenhagen Synthesis Report... Read article

Wall Street’s Love Affair with Ben Bernanke

A careful reading of Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke’s op-ed in Tuesday’s Wall Street Journal, shows that Bernanke thinks the economy is in a deflationary spiral that will last for some time. Ben Bernanke: “The depth and breadth of the global recession has required a highly accommodative monetary policy. Since the onset of the financial crisis nearly two years ago, the Federal Reserve has reduced the interest-rate target for overnight lending between banks (the federal-funds rate) nearly to zero.... Read article

The Constitution

Solution or Problem? “Far from being the ideal document hailed and heralded in a sea of campaign oratory, the Constitution was a lawyer’s contract that claimed no higher law than its managers, who represented themselves as reflecting the will of the people. Since such a will was undefined and undefinable, lawyers made up the rules and procedures of government as they went along, within limits that were often ignored, slyly subverted, or poorly guarded. In effect, the Founders had recklessly placed the government... Read article

Putin Rebukes Zionist America & Obama

“THE US SHOULD TAKE A LESSON FROM THE PAGES OF RUSSIAN HISTORY,” scolded Russian Prime Minister during a speech at the opening ceremony of the World Economic Forum in Davos Switzerland on January 28, 2009. Continuing his lecture to Zionist-occupied America, Putin said that America should not exercise “excessive intervention in economic activity having blind faith in the state’s omnipotence.” Then pointing to a few of the tragic events of Russia’s economic woes during its occupation by Communism during its Soviet... Read article

Let It Come!

During Patrick Henry’s famous “Give me liberty or give me death” speech, he said the following: “Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth and listen to the song of that siren, till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly... Read article

Racism: Glorified Hyperbole In America

Each week, I write well-researched, straightforward and hard hitting editorials on the state of immigration, environment, politics and many other accelerating dilemmas facing America. Those op-eds expose politicians, presidents, ecological decline, the War on Drugs, etc. Yet, the United States, led by its current president, a black man named Barack Obama as well as a white dominated U.S. Congress continue leading this nation on a destructive path while pretending to make things better for American citizens. One look at... Read article

The Case of the ‘Fatwa’ to Rig Iran’s Election

The propaganda campaign to paint the victory of the incumbent candidate in Iran’s June presidential election as having been a stolen one began early. Even before the election, the seed was being planted that the election would be stolen to give President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a win. This narrative played nicely into the hands of the reformist opposition candidate Mir Hossein Mousavi, who cried foul following the favorable results for the incumbent. But what evidence is there to support this narrative? In one prominent example,... Read article

We Have Given Our Blessing to Israel’s Crimes

If you keep on excusing, you eventually give your blessing to the slave camp, to cowardly force, to organized executioners, to the cynicism of great political monsters; you finally hand over your brothers. ~~ Albert Camus There is no subject more restricted nor more controlled in the United States than a critical discussion of Israel. Balanced argument is ignored while each word is parsed — and condemned. It’s strange that we are free to rant and rave and point out the war crimes of our own administration —... Read article

Learning from Card Check’s Death

Maybe you didn’t hear the news: Card Check — the key provision of the Employee Free Choice Act — is dead. You might not have gotten the message because U.S. labor “leaders” are remarkably silent on the issue. Not a peep. The media, however, has the story right: the Democrats are now officially seeking a compromise, one that strips the bill of its essence — the right for workers to start a union by stating their intention to do so. So why are most union leaders so quiet? No one likes to talk about their blunders,... Read article
