On 9/11--Fear and the American Spirit

Ten Years…. I was watching the CNN special called “Footnotes of 9/11.” As soon as they showed the video images of the planes hitting the World Trade Center, I was angry…and then I was crying.

We aren't broke, we are Republican-Broke!

All over the news, we keep hearing how America’s economy is a shambles; that America is broke. The news organizations bring on commentators who wax philosophic about America’s soaring debt and unemployment.

Tell me SOMETHING you love about Americans

I was recently asked to create a presentation about America. It was to be shown to women from several different countries who'd never been to America. At first, I dreaded the project but I dove into it anyway. I decided that I wanted to show my Country as it really is.

Enough with the politics....this is MY CAT!

I've been paying too much attention to politics lately. After this past week of political nonsense, I decided it was time to post something else. This is my cat. Her name is Gemini since her face looks like two different cats mushed together.

FOX produces smirking report of Rally to Restore Sanity, and interviews the Devil.

FOX sends reporter to give smirking commentary of the Rally to Restore Sanity. Instead of showing the large and diverse crowd, she chose to interview...the DEVIL! A lame attempt to belittle this excellent gathering of decent, hardworking Americans.

A 10 minute shower in crude oil, for 208 people each hour, for 30 days. Drill baby drill?

How many Americans?

Want to fix the Economy? Do it yourself.

Yep...the economy sucks right now. Continuing its tradition of re-inventing the english language, the Bush Administration doesn't want to use the words "recession" or even "depression"...they like "slow-down" as if making up a new word makes it easier to swallow.
