A report released June 9 by the FBI's Office of the Inspector General raises new questions about the role of the US government in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

I have been shocked and awed in recent years by the desperate rigidity of many of the president's supporters in clinging to their conclusions about national and international affairs, even in the face of clear evidence to the contrary. I have had multiple conversations with such individuals which were abruptly truncated when solid evidence was placed on the table, as if they were simply psychologically unprepared to go where such facts inevitably led.

Tell Tim that if he supports cuts to public broadcasting, you will be sending an alternative representative to Congress in the 2006 election. |

On his ongoing Social Security privatization tour, President Bush has continued to tell Americans that something is gravely wrong with Social Security as it is currently structured. "...the people of this country are going to say to Republicans and Democrats alike: Why aren't you doing something about the problem?" he told an audience Wednesday. What exactly is the problem and why do we need benefit cuts for middle-income people and risky private accounts to solve it? |
