Jane Fonda ? Some Crib Notes for the Governor
2008-09-06 22:20:00 Dear Governor Schwarzenegger, It has been over a week since the poopy-doo hit the fan over the impending induction of antiwar activist Jane Fonda A.K.A. Hanoi Jane to The California Museum’s Hall of Fame. Quite frankly, I thought by now your office would have issued a statement to the effect that upon further consideration, the decision ...
McCain, Schwarzenegger, and Jane Fonda ? the Perfect Storm
2008-09-04 11:25:00 The Jane Fonda controversy has all the makings of a perfect storm. And, like the storms currently wending their way across the Atlantic Ocean, it has a life of its own, and won't go away just because a few people would like it to.
Hanoi Jane?s Back ? It?s Time To Call the Terminator
2008-09-02 12:39:00 Honoring a person with valid credentials as a traitor, or at the least one who has collaborated with the enemy, is a terrible signal to send to his constituents ? especially to veterans and their families. That's why I urge him to withdraw her nomination as quickly as possible ? while there is still time for damage control.
Hanoi Jane: Here We Go Again!
2008-09-01 20:36:00 The California Museum’s Hall of Fame for the third year has compiled a list of notable and legendary Californians who have made extraordinary achievements in the fields of music, architecture, art, literature, politics, science, cinema, fitness and food.

Vietnam War Vet Adam Morrison
2008-03-22 06:47:00 Vietnam Vet Adam Morrison was spotted at his alma mater’s NCAA tourney game earlier today. Morrison who brought the mustache back to college basketball has let his hair grow a considerable length as well. His Gonzaga Zag’s lost to Davidson 82-76. No word on how many, if any, tears Morrison shed over the loss. Morrison, who is being paid by the NBA’s Charlotte Bobcats, has missed the entire NBA season due to a knee injury. His new look kind of reminds me of the last days of Howard Hughes. photo: Fan IQ
McCain Deserves Respect from ALL Americans for His Service
2008-03-20 23:23:00 OK, so I was on reddit and got in a debate with some Ron Paul supporter named Private_Freedom (warning - that link goes straight to his profile where he has posted some disgusting and perverted comments) who criticized McCain for serving his country: Here’s the original conversation (edited for swearing), also available here (my posts ...
Spirited Republican Debate on Fox in South Carolina Tonight: Fred Thompson
2008-01-11 07:10:00 A crisp, spirited Republican debate in South Carolina earlier tonight - one of the best so far, as good the Republican debate on ABC on Saturday - and Fox included Ron Paul, which it didn't do on Sunday.Fred Thompson was the best he's been so far, responding with a sharp mix of passion, clarity, and humor. He took Mike Huckabee to task for being a Democrat in Republican clothing. Even though I agree with Huckabee's "Democratic" positions about education, etc., I had to admire Thompson's performance.Huckabee, for his part, however, was also excellent. He came through again as likable and sincere, as well as vivid and saber-rattling in his response to the Iranian gunboat incident - warning Iranians and anyone that if they attack American boats, the next thing they'll be seeing are the gates of hell. (Thompson got in a good line about the Iranians being close to seeing the virgins they think await their heroes in the afterlife.) Again, I don't agree at all with this jingoism...

Retailers post disappointing November sales - MarketWatch
2007-12-06 15:18:00 On November 15 I wrote regarding the November retail numbers: thebankruptcynewsdotcom If the news is bad, the Fed will feel justified in declaring that the risk of a recession is higher than the risk of inflation, and lower the rates a little bit more. Either way, at this , the end will be the same. ...
The Myth of Republican Fiscal Conservatism
2007-11-30 18:58:00 Seeing Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney fight over who is more of a fiscal conservative made me think that they are actually barking up the wrong tree. You see, although the Republican Party claims to be the party of "small government", and many fiscal conservatives vote Republican for that reason, the record shows that the ...
A Convoluted Way to Go Flat
2007-11-15 22:55:00 Last Friday I wrote that the Dow Jones at 13,099 should see a rest. I pointed out that some statistical barriers had been broken, and that the fall should stop around there.

A Corpsman?s Response to The Vietnam War: Sequelae
2007-10-19 02:15:00 Grady Harp is an Amazon Top 10 Reviewer E. Everett McFall offers his own tragedies and illness and gradual recovery from the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, the result of giving medical aid to the living and the dead during his tour of duty in Vietnam, 1966/1967. Responding to a therapist’s advice to commit the unspeakable experiences to a written journal was the impetus to launch his slow and terrifying road to recovery, a journey that in his own words persists to this day. The results of that initial journal are here in this collection of thoughts, reflections and poems he has appropriately titled I Can Still Hear Their Cries, Even In My Sleep: A Journey Into PTSD. It is a book that would be well for all of us to read and experience as, despite the horrendous accounts of war’s disabling effects on the human mind, it is also one of the books that will be considered a retrospective first in the exploration of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - a ‘new’ disease ...

Vietnam War Memorial Website Defaced
2007-09-20 17:39:00 OK, there is no misunderstanding that I’m an advocate of free speech and a supporter of the Canadian military and by extension the US military (albeit not the Shrub administration). Soldiers have a thankless task at the best of times. They are paid starvation wages and sent off to fight. And in some circumstances they ...

Dubya REWRITES HISTORY of Vietnam War!
2007-08-23 09:50:00 One of the significant characteristics of the George W. Bush presidency, when it becomes a “chapter in history,” will be that he and his boys refined the art of foreign-policy propaganda to new heights. Children call this art “Pretend” when they put on costumes and create different realities, but at least they have the good ...

Vietnam War Museum
2006-04-17 04:20:00 Saigon, Vietnam, March 20, 2006We just finished our tour of the Cu Chi Tunnels. As we were leaving, we saw a huge crocodile on display. I have no idea why this reptile would be here, but that was just the kind of day it was. If you look at the 'Cu-chi Tunnels' post, you will find the same guy in the background of another photo with exactly the same expression on his face. I find myself feeling the way he looks. This is just such an intense day.We left the Tunnels and our bus took us to the Vietnam War Museum.The Museum includes a large lot filled with U.S. Military vehicles and Armaments. This is Paul. He's from California. I walked through the Museum with him. It was an amazing experience to look though the displays with an American. We saw photos of Napalmed bodies and bombed out villages. We read the pleadings from the Countries of the World, begging the U.S. to withdraw from Vietnam. As Paul and I walked along from room to room, reading and looking at the pictures on the wall...
