The fallacy of Political Correctness.

The fallacy of Political Correctness.
Since you can’t look up political correctness (PC) in a dictionary or phrase book other than the online repositories, here’s the most accurate definition I could find, from Wikipedia; Political correctness (adjectivally, politically correct; both forms commonly abbreviated to PC) is a term...

You lie!

You lie!
I often sit here and think to myself that if I discovered a Genie’s bottle and was given three wishes, my first would be “I’d like to know the absolute truth about everything”…  Funny thing about that idea. There is no such thing as truth. .. or better said that truth, like...

Facing the spoiled American brat that I’ve become…

Facing the spoiled American brat that I’ve become…
I’m sitting here even debating writing about this, because frankly it doesn’t show me in the best light, but after thinking about it, I believe what I’m going through is indicative of a larger problem in American society worth talking about. That socially relevant point comes later, but...

What ever happened to "for the people"? (aka, I'm a socialist?)

It's a Kerry / Edwards ballgame!

This is what I’ve hoped for since Edwards and Kerry went head to head for the democratic ticket. While I’ve traditionally voted Republican, I’ve had pretty much all the Bush I can stand. On the other hand, I *like* both Kerry and Edwards. It’s a lesser of two evils kinda...
