For some unknown reason the "Tea Party activist and 9-12ers" have invited me to join them "to protest Barak Obama's socialized medicine proposals during the president's visit to Grand Junction this Saturday."

I responded with a bit of sarcasm and irony, which I realize will only confuse this group.

I know it's all been said before, but I just need to rant.

We need national healthcare, not insurance. It amazes me that this country puts more value in property than in human life.

As an art historian of Precolumbian Mesoamerican cultures and a supporter of Barack Obama, I have to admit that I found this to be very cool. David Stuart, a world renowned Maya epigrapher from my alma mater, the University of Texas at Austin, designed a Maya glyph that spells "Obama".

Just received this parable in an email from a very hard working and responsible Republican ant.

Change We Can Believe In: Barack Obama's Plan to Renew America's Promise by Barack Obama

I arrived home from work today and found this book in my mailbox. I walked into my home, sat down, and read it in its entirety. It is rare that I consume a book so completely without pause.

Although I try to be vigilant in reducing the amount of energy I use and pollution I create, especially CO2 pollution that is playing a critical role in global warming, there are some things that are very difficult to avoid while living in our society today. If you drive at all, no matter how green your vehicle, you are creating some pollution. The same can be said for taking a commercial airline flight during a vacation. It's also becoming nearly impossible to buy something that doesn't have some element of plastic created from petroleum either in it or in its packaging. Even typing this blog post is using electricity that was created by a power plant that more likely than not burns coal to create that energy.

The Guardian's award-winning photographer and filmmaker Sean Smith spent two months embedded with US troops in Baghdad and Anbar province. His harrowing documentary exposes the exhaustion and disillusionment of the soldiers.

"I challenge anybody in congress to do my rotation." -- Spc. Vassell, 2nd Platoon Apache Company

This is a powerful piece of journalism that shows the devastating impact the occupation of Iraq is having both on the US troops and on the civilian population.

On this July 4, 2007 I believe it is necessary for all Americans to recall why the colonists decided to revolt against King George III and pen their Declaration of Independence. We must remember that "We the People" have fought to defend the rights spelled out in the American Constitution and the Bill of Rights. Anyone who takes actions that would weaken the Constitution or believes it is ever necessary to relinquish our civil liberties, is not a true patriot and does not understand what it means to be an American.

For over seven years now, ever since then Governor George W. Bush announced his candidacy for president, I have been speaking out about how bad I believed a Bush-led Neoconservative administration would be for America. Having been a Texas resident at the time I knew "W" was not up to the task of running the nation. I watched in amazement as this man and his cadre of corrupt businessmen and warmongers were "elected" not only once, but twice. It was unthinkable and I mourned.

I'm sure we can all remember the allegations of Arnold Schwarzenegger groping women and his history of misogyny and sexually harassing women in the run up to the 2003 special recall election in California. He apologized and stated that he "behaved badly sometimes" and was still somehow elected Governor. His low opinion of women seems to have surfaced again in two related stories. Read More
