You know, when I read through a link like that, I'm reminded of the "power of information"..... the power to confuse, that is. So Saddam's government was humanitarian to the extent of handing out free food each year to the people to keep them from starving? I thought Saddam was a thieving monster wh...

From Nevada to Utah (part two) I wanted to stop and take in this space more fully. I actually backtracked for awhile, crossing back over Confusion Range on a graded dirt road into the southern reaches of Snake Valley. Across the basin, Wheeler Peak rose high above the desert floor on the Nevada-Uta...

Nevada to Utah: Notes and Pictorial

From Nevada to Utah (part one) I wonder how these two places could possibly be next to each other. Utah is preposterous vertical red rock. Nevada is the graceful open range. Utah is populated by people following a strict authoritarian religious creed. Nevada is favored by prospectors and outlaws an...

Me too. I put my faith in.... The whole, over partitions Compassion, over hatred Core truth, over calculation God, over religion The divine lives within. I find that a good place to start. And don't forget humor's spiritual dimension.... At times, I have put my faith in George Carlin or Mel Brooks o...

doreen: I think this is a common misconception that people have with regard to Kerry's vote on Iraq, and the nature of the Iraq resolution in general. The vote was actually to authorize the use of military force in Iraq as a last resort . Nearly all of Congress voted yes on this resolution. The prob...

Well, I agree there. Policy matters more than "character". Policy is what I have to go on in this election; the ruinous known policy of the current Administration. I admit that I might be voting more against this terrible policy than for another policy in particular, but I really don't think I have ...

Seems a bit of a contradiction, here.... "What good is a chief who is incapable of guile?" "Guile" could easily describe the policy fraud of the Iraq war and the way both campaigns are currently being conducted; both of which (apparently) disgust you (and me). So perhaps, "integrity" isn't such a ba...

to measure the immeasurable
to wrap finite around boundless
without beginning and without end
at the both the beginning and the end
with curves of space and time crossing
like another cryptic faint image
dangerously close to right now.

thanks, Cec.

Thanks for your replies, everyone. The U.S.-Saudi alliance goes back at least to the days of Franklin Roosevelt, who pledged rather unconditional US support for the Saudi royals in exchange for unfettered access to 'affordable' oil. Every American President since has played along with this. As we kn...
