OPINION
America should get
civilians out of Iraq
Friday, June 18, saw the beheading
of yet another American hostage in Iraq and raises many questions about
what's going on overseas. Specifically, why are American civilians still
in Iraq?
Patriot Act: power of absolute
corruption
The Patriot Act, made law with very
little congressional debate and pushed upon the American people during
the hysteria following 9/11, is not only unnecessary but also serves as
a crack in America's foundation. It is as close to the oppressiveness of
the former Soviet Union as we have ever been. It is of the same mentality
that the Taliban, al-Qaida and even Saddam Hussein shared. Despite its
name, in this brave new world of doublespeak, the Patriot Act is as unpatriotic
as it gets.
