China Returns Sharp Retort to U.S. Report on Human Rights – New York Times
I live in the pot. I live in the kettle. Maybe that phrase needs to be updated…why is it a bad thing for the pot or the kettle to be black? Is it a bad thing to be black? I don’t think so but I did see a preview for a TV show where a…
It's Official…South Dakota is Lame!
I’m not just saying this arbitrarily….The governor of South Dakota signed the nations first law banning abortion in more than 30 years… The law bans abortion in almost all cases, punishing doctors who perform one with five years in prison and a $5,000 fine. It bans abortion even in cases where a woman is pregnant…

On his triumphalist tour of India and Pakistan, where he hopes to wave imperiously at people he considers potential subjects, President Bush has…

Nigeria had previously indicated that it would turn Taylor over to an elected Liberian government, if not to the special court….
Iconic Che
I see a lot of Che T-Shirts on the UH campus…I like these better… cd His spirit may never die, but he’s dead as a doornail. Che fought exploitation, inequality and oppression. I doubt he would be a fan of his iconic image on t shirts.
