On Being American

It's time to restate the simple, nonnegotiable truth about what it means to be an American. What it means be a democracy. The president operates under the law. We do not torture. We, like the founders of our country, believe that liberty is the foundation of our security, not a threat to our security. Clicking this link will add your name to the petition!

WV Patriots for Peace Is Saddened

Ken Stone was a peacemaker and a man dedicated to justice and truth.

Dick “He Shot His Friend in the Face” Cheney

What is the Vice President hiding? As they like to say, if you aren't guilty, you have nothing to fear. But once again, this Administration's philosophy is clear: We are kings and not even our own rules apply to us.


Maureen Dowd: "I've always thought Cheney was way out there — the most Voldemort-like official I've run across. But even in my harshest musings about the vice president, I never imagined that he would declare himself not only above the law, not only above the president, but actually his own dark planet — a separate entity from the White House."
