The Primary Principal of Sovereignty The issue of the principal of sovereignty is an issue that inspires some of the most intense ideological debates within society.  Sovereignty is a concept that every society has its own definition of – in some parts in European society, sovereignty is derived from the just consent of the governed, or the 'general will'.  In other parts of European society, sovereignty is derived from one central power that is capable of overriding all other powers, or the 'Leviathan'.  In some parts of Islamic society, sovereignty is derived from 'al-Sunnah', or the will of God.

The Bush Administration’s Dangerous Legal Precedent The Bush administration clearly views the Constitution as its enemy and something to be gotten around rather than something to be followed and upheld at all times

The End of Privacy is Just the Beginning. Of late we, the people of the United States of America, have seen an unprecedented and unwarranted increase in the level of intrusion, by the federal government, into the private lives of the American citizenry.  This intrusion takes the form of electronic surveillance, searches, and no-notice seizure of records.  The argument, made by members of this administration, is that broad investigative and surveillance powers are necessary to deter terrorism. The counter-argument, made by opponents to this administration, is that government is precluded from such power by the Constitution, and that the individual right to privacy is protected in federal and state law as well as in the conventions of American society.  At the heart of this issue are the nature of privacy, the protections afforded by law and custom, and the need to balance the power of the government, the need to deter terrorism, and the rights of the individual.

Ron Paul Omitted! The news results for the straw poll in Ames, Iowa are in - and as expected, many are optimistic pertaining to the results of the "highly capable" machinery that is used in counting the votes.  After waiting at least an hour and a half to receive the results of the poll that were promised at 8:00 EST, it has been declared that Mitt Romney claims the victory with a little over 31% of the votes. 

The Nation, The State, and Tradition: Good or Bad? An analysis of the policies proposed by the various American presidential candidates shows that each potential candidate appeals to the American people in a common way.  All of their policies are justified to the American people by appealing to the American nation, the proper role of the government, or an American tradition.  Barack Obama justifies his proposed fiscal policy because the current fiscal policy, “...robs the state of critical investments in infrastructure..

A Rant From A Friend. Union Power.........yea right !! ..esp when most of your fellow Union "brothers" flap their gums in rhythm with the Right Wing yadda yadda machine. Amazing how they can't chain things up in their minds and follow the action. But here we are with some 60% of the membership blaming the non existant "librulz" for their problems.And almost all of the rest pattering some milktoast so-called "liberal" line manufactured in some Clinton/Carville Leadership Council

The American HologramWe Americans have been swimming in a soup of advertising for so long that we mistake our advertising for reality itself.What is advertising? Its not a statement as statements are supposed to be logically grounded with opinion backed up by facts. Advertising is basically simulation/dissimulation with manipulation replacing statements .Advertising is a simulated and sanitized version of reality that can only refer back to itself. It cannot withstand logic, fact finding, or reason. Advertising is like a disembodied smile with no connection to actual emotions.	Developing The Concept of 'Development'If a person were to examine the foreign policy of the United States, they will find that much of its foreign policy hinges on the development of non-industrialized nations and the societies of people within them. For instance, much of the American foreign policy towards Africa is geared towards developing Africa, so that the people can learn to live in a more prosperous environment, where they can truly be free; for when people are dependent upon others for their food and livelihood, they cannot really be free. However, what is meant by this term 'development'?
The Islamic Creation Story As A Template To Understand The Islamic IndividualA creation story is a narrative that relates a certain interpretation on how the first events in the universe occurred, as well as portraying the fundamental laws that govern its existence.  The creation story relates the events of the earliest moments of the relevant reality, and as such, all events after creation can logically be seen as a derivative of these initial events, because it is from these initial events that the events after creation are derived..	9/11 Coincidence Theory This isn't a conspiracy theory.
