Has America become that fading / aging Hollywood “Star” – that tries to linger in the spotlight a little too long? Grasping at the fond memories of former fame and glory? Desperately seeking the false promise of beauty and adoration with just one more little nip & tuck, one more face lift. Perhaps hoping for [...]

[Follow up to blog post, "China's 21st Century War to Destroy the U.S. | Wake up! We Are Losing!"] Something is very wrong. The number of press stories / pentagon reports / think-tank assessments and arbitrary Joe Geek office cube conversations revolving around Chinese Hackers continues to escalate and very little notice (publicly) appears to [...]

Texas Governor Rick Perry stirred the stick of popularism yesterday with his war-cry of secession from the Union during the Texan-chapter of the not-so-great Tea Party rallies. Alas a firebrand pitchfork and torch march on Capitol Hill was not the reality hoped for by hundreds and the mainstream media added just the right measure of [...]

I’m at a loss for words this weekend. Having spent some time playing and exploring the Government’s General Printing Office (GPO) website (which has an amazing array of statistics, databases, raw data files and reports) – I’m seriously wondering … – Where is the public outcry? – Where are the pitch forks? – When shall [...]

If skepticism is a defense mechanism – I am one heck of a sceptic when it comes to prophetic ‘End of Days’ / apocalyptic / doomsday stories often pressed into circulation as ‘and finally‘ news items footnoted into an already crappy news broadcast. So when ‘Famed‘ Reverend David Wilkerson, an American Christian evangelist – (who’s [...]

Interestingly, but perhaps not unexpectedly, China has announced plans to launch an English-language-speaking (bound to upset the French) 24 hour news channel (a ‘Chinese CNN’) to fluff-up their righteous Communist-spewing, human-rights-abusing, environment-destroying, currency-manipulating, African-dictator-supporting image beyond their locked-down totalitarian nation state. Here’s to fair and balanced! But at least it expands our choice of international [...]

You know the war in Iraq is so far beyond recovery and success when the Bush Administration’s cable news mouthpiece, Fox News, shuns any mention of said war in favor of: – Paris Hilton – immigration reform so out of whack with reality as to emphasize the absurdity of Bush’s “Conversative” values and the far-left’s [...]

First let me quickly state that I am indeed a recovering European – a newly naturalized U.S. citizen – and I’ve come to a wholly different conclusion about Americans and their view of the world and of themselves. The United States of America is an unwanted protagonist in a world that finds itself stewing, quite [...]
