Parallels and Truths by authors Green and Twain

This article by David Michael Green is excellent (it can be read in entirety at: http://www.smirkingchimp.com/thread/25201).

Pope John Paul II whipped himself regularly

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/italy/6632462/Pope-John-Paul-II-whipped-himself-in-remorse-for-sins.htmlSome will think this is "holy" -- they are talking about sainthood for him.

FOREWARNED: Time for Truth regarding a photo of Obama

It is being sent out in e-mails by right wingers with their own interpretation of it which, of course, is wrong and filled with hatred for Obama. It is a photo of Obama with military officers, standing on a stage. All the officers are saluting while Obama stands with his hands in front of him instead of in a salute. The right wingers say they are...

What If the Crazies Take Over the Asylum

REPUBLICANS ARE NOT SO FUNNY, AFTER ALLBy William Rivers Pitt I've been writing roughly once a week for months now about the insane circus that is today's Republican Party, mostly to make fun of them.

Free Clinic: "Hard to believe I was in America"

Capitalism is coming to an end, brought down by greed. Things cannot continue as they are at present. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer, and the middle class is disappearing. Those who see socialism as evil need to look at when our way of life began to come apart at the seams big time -- in the Reagan years of deregulation of corporations and...

For most...

IMPORTANT: Another scientist "suicide"

All the links below are very important ones to read/watch.Some things, especially techniques of government "specialists," never change: This latest reported suicide of a British scientist (see below) sounds very much like U.S. Secretary of Defense James Forrestal's death way back in 1949 -- when he "tried to hang himself" and "fell" from a 16th floor...
