Is the United States of America Addicted to War?
2008-05-10 00:48:00
by Walter C. Uhler   Mikhail Gorbachev is not a frivolous man. He was the Soviet leader who introduced the conceptual breakthrough of "mutual security" to Soviet-American relations, as well as the man who did more than any other individual to bring the Cold War to a peaceful conclusion (See here). In my opinion, he ranks as the greatest statesman of the twentieth century (something I was able to tell him personally, when we talked in St. Petersburg, Russia in May 2006). So, when Mr. Gorbachev says, "Every US president has to have a war," and "I sometimes have the feeling that the United States is going to wage war against the entire world," - as was reported by the Telegraph.co.uk on May 7, 2008 — I take him seriously. More to the point, Gorbachev's assertions probably elicited widespread agreement, not only in Russia, but also across Europe, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East. For, as historian Michael Sherry has put it: ...

The United States Of America Wants 25 More Bahamians Extradited To Face Dru
2008-05-06 23:57:00
US Wants 25 More Extradited - By Kendea Jones: Nassau, Bahamas - The United States is currently seeking the extradition of 25 more people from The Bahamas, according to Deputy Chief of Mission at the US Embassy in Nassau Dr. Brent Hardt, who was the special guest on the Sunday programme "Jones and Company" on JCN TV and Radio Love 97. Dr. Hardt said the embassy is appreciative of the relationship it shares with The Bahamas? judicial system. "We have seen the good works of all the people who work in the [judicial] system here and who work in the attorney general?s office who prosecute the area - and the police department as well, and we are just grateful for the great work and the open partnership," he said. "I have worked in many countries around the world and I have yet to see the same level or degree of trust that we enjoy here in The Bahamas.

To the citizens of the United States of America
2008-04-30 00:45:00
Subject: Formal notice To the citizens of the United States of America: In light of your failure in recent years to nominate competent candidates for President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas, which she does not fancy). Your new Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections. Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed. To aid in the transition to a British Crown Dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect: You should look up 'revocation' in the Oxford English Dictionary. 1. Then look up aluminium, and check the pronunciation guide. You will be amazed a...

I Love and Want To Have Sex With The Flag of the United States of America
2008-03-13 07:51:00
I love my country more than life itself, and you can't say anything to change my mind. You can tell me the president is an idiot, you can say the armed forces are a mindless killing machine, you can say democracy is just a suggestion box for slaves; none of it will derail me from my unwavering belief that America is right and good and backed by this world's one true Christian God. My proof? Our nation's most important symbol, the American Flag. Just look at it:How can you want to look at anything else for the rest of your life? Really. I have my bedroom decorated with fifty-seven American Flags: one for each state, and one for each future state (Puerto Rico, Iraq, Syria, Iran, China, North Korea, and The Canadas). Such an enduring and empowering symbol is beyond comparison to anything else in the history of existence. Some would have the Constitution as our Great Godly Nation's most important symbol, but that's ridiculous. The Constitution and its values are changeable, and imm...

The Presidents of the United States of America: These Are the Good Times Pe
2008-03-12 03:18:00
The Presidents of the United States of America: These Are the Good Times PeopleHow many 90s bands from Seattle can you name that are still relevant? I can't think of many. It's funny that the Presidents of the United States of America might be the only one. They hail from the birth place of grunge but they play a goofy blend of power pop and blues.The Presidents' sound made them famous in the 90s with hits like "Peaches", "Lump", and "Volcano". In 1998 when the Presidents broke up it seemed to be the end of their story. They got back together in 2000 and released Freaked Out and Small and quickly broke up again. In 2004 they reunited again, started their own record label, and this reunion seemed to have stuck.Now they release These Are the Good Times People, the Presidents' sixth studio album. You would think that the arc of their career would have harden them to some extent but the music is still as insouciant as ever.In "French Girl", singer songwriter Chris Ballew sing...

Ex-Muslim Barack Hussein Obama as American President
2008-01-08 21:38:00
Barack Hussein Obama could be the next President of United States of America. I was not much interested in Obama and was faintly aware of the controversy regarding his Islamic past, until I realised that he had established some lead over Hillary Clinton and has strong chances of getting elected as President of USA.It was then I came to know that his name is Barack Hussein Obama and the Barack is a variant spelling for Barkat. So he may not be a Muslim anymore but Urdu tabloids can declare that 'Barkat Husain to become US President' to boost circulation for a few days.He is Black and if elected, that will also be a first in US' history. I don't know what is going in his favour that a man, who has a Muslim-sounding name, is not only in contention for the top post in USA but also a favourite. Obama has done his best to clear if anybody has any misconceptions about his Islamic past. He says that his father Obama Senior (a Kenyan) was raised as a Muslim in his childhood but later bec...

I Present to You - Our Next President of the United States of America
2007-11-27 21:43:00
I do have strong views about politics, social issues and the like.  I do have a political party preference, but that's another story. Set that aside for just a moment.  When you break it all down and look at who we have as our options this coming election it is absolutely sickening. Those who like Hillary primarily prefer her for a few unworthy reasons, including; anything but Bush, just because she is a Democrat, a preference for "Clinton's", because she is a woman, and whatever else. Not because they understand the absolute details of her positions on topics. That would be impossible because they change every time a poll changes. For example, licenses for illegal immigrants in New York. Those who like Rudy primarily prefer him because he is known for 9-11, because his is a Republican, because he may appoint convservative judges, and because he is a man. Not because they understand his positions either. In fact, many of his positions are moderate and man...

Funeral eulogy for the United States of America - 1776-2007
2007-09-28 10:12:00
"Allow the President to invade a neighboring nation, whenever he shall deem it necessary to repel an invasion, and you allow him to do so, whenever he may choose to say he deems it necessary for such purpose ? and you allow him to make war at pleasure. Study to see if you can fix any limit to his power in this respect, after you have given him so much as you propose. If, today, he should choose to say he thinks it necessary to invade Canada, to prevent the British from invading us, how could you stop him? You may say to him, 'I see no probability of the British invading us' but he will say to you 'be silent; I see it, if you don't.' The provision of the Constitution giving the war-making power to Congress, was dictated, as I understand it, by the following reasons: Kings had always been involving and impoverishing their people in wars, pretending generally, if not always, that the good of the people was the object. This, our Convention understood to be the most oppressive of al...

Presidents Of The United States Of America - Lump (1995)
2007-07-31 07:00:00
Presidents of the United States of America were one of the most unlikely success stories of the post-grunge alternative rock scene in Seattle. Where the rest of their Seattle brethren traded in heavy guitars and heavy angst, the Presidents rejected torment for humor, writing short, simple, and absurd punk songs that relied more on goofy attitude than sludgy riffs and tormented screams. It was a formula that worked, as the group's self-titled debut album became a double-platinum record much to the surprise of many critics, music industry insiders, and the band itself.Childhood friends Chris Ballew (lead vocals, two string basitar) and Dave Dederer (three-string guitbass, backing vocals) played in a number of groups and projects before forming the Presidents of the United States of America around 1990. The duo recorded a demo tape, which began circulating around the Seattle musical community and, in the process, earning them a cult following. Drummer Jason Finn, a member of Love Batt...
