News & Events - December 2006

Jesse Jackson offered to pay for the rest of the schooling for the alleged victim in the Duke rape case. Now that these men's lives have been ruined, the coach's career damaged and the Lacrosse teams season(they were ranked #1 in the nation) forfeited, will Jesse Jackson step up to the plate to help these victims of a slanderous assault?

Many in the media portrayed this as a socio-economic/racial event. Will they now go back and demand apologies to the white community of North Carolina?

Or is racism still a one way street?

North Korea has nukes and they are not afraid to use them. If we get them all excited, they might just go and do something crazy. Does Bush know the limits of how a bully might act. We are fighting one war that may be never won and imposing on another country. Where is the solders gonna come from? I guess we better make better bomb shelters because we might just need them.

America a long time ago attacked probably Iraq or Iran to steal all the oil gas or some kind of liguid. American leaders thought oh well we have oil/gas (don't know which) but we as americans always want to be the best and have more so lets kill off all those people over there so we can get there oil and be the best. So all those terrorists did was try to even things out get revenge payback. So does anyone else thing America deserved it?

I personally do. I know they are just words but they feel hateful and negative and that is just not needed in today's world. We have enough negativity don't you guys think? I feel cussing, especially the F word, should be eliminated forever along with the N word which I find disgusting.

It's an abomination to animal rights everywhere!!!! I just saw this video on yahoo news, and it showed a female giant squid being caught by fishermen... while they were bringing it to shore, it died!!! Why couldn't they just let it go? They were so mean!!! Suppose it had a baby and now it's orphaned!!!

I have a very staunch view on this. and I apologize to anyone who is offended. The liberalism in America has gotten out of control. The neocons have become out of control, and the United States is letting, yes my friends letting the war on terror be lost to Al Qaeda. Not Iraq, not Saddam...the terrorism threat that we have expierenced. I am an American. I support Isreal in there threat by Iran and Mahmoud Ahmanedinejad. He is a chilling figure. The world needs American ideals restored. Get involved....get engaged....and by god ladies and gentlemen be America. Not GOP or Democrat. Be American. Let freedom ring!!!!!

When my mother was six, her father was murdered - shot by assassins - in the streets of Athens. My mother witnessed the event. It was an assassination of sorts because my grandfather was involved with a political party. The man who shot him was dressed as a Greek Orthodox Priest and whipped the gun out from his robe after calling out my grandfather's name.

Where can I find a record of this event? Please help!

Since the administrations reasoning for this war changed from WMD's to establishing democracy, I'd love to hear your input considering that it might be the truth. Also, do you believe Usama Bin Laden is alive or dead?
