Last week, I reported on the Huffington Post about CNN's appalling coverage of anti-war protests that marked the five-year anniversary of the war in Iraq.
This week, CNN responded by mocking the criticism and dismissing it as "rabid."

"So?"
So said Dick Cheney when asked last week about public opinion being overwhelming against the war in Iraq. "You can't be blown off course by polls."
His attitude about the the fact that the number of U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq has reached 4,000 displayed similar...

Having completed a little tome about the gallons of blood guzzled by Democrats over numerous decades, I was stopped by an AP headline this morning that read, "Anti-war Democrats ponder next step."

This past weekend I attended an anti-war demonstration in West Chester, Pennsylvania. There were a couple stories written about it recently in the Philadelphia Inquirer that caught my attention. While I won't be a regular attendee I wanted to show my face there at least once to see...

With our beloved Constitution under attack, and new legislation (H.R. 1955 and S. 1959) that will further usurp our freedoms, Americans are reaching back into history for the familiarity of their Revolutionary past. American freedom fighters, determined to reNEW their democracy, are digging into the fashion of their Founders, donning...

"This is America, get used to it."

I would like to start this blog by saying it has been my life's honor to serve with my fellow troops. I will never forget what I went through along side them in Iraq . In retrospect, anything I did "over there" was for them - I did it for...

This past Monday the Philadelphia Daily News ran an op-ed that I wrote expressing my frustrations with big money anti-war lobbying organizations. Particularly the groups that I worked side by side with. However, the piece that I wrote needs to be elaborated on further.
I have...

After six years of America's mainstream media bowing to its corporate mandate to ignore all opposition to George W. Bush, a media miracle has happened. Thanks to the great camera work of AP photographer Charles Dharapak, the American anti-war movement has been revealed to the world. In one flash of...
