How military contractors run our Defense Dept. and wastes money
Defense spending is very high. In fact, the government wastes a lot of money because defense contractors give millions of dollars to congressmen and senators, in order to ensure billions of dollars in defense contracts.

I missed writing a column on Earth Day, so I will writing this one about threats to our health and environment. The fertilizer plant in West, Texas (south of Dallas) had 1350 times the amount of ammonium nitrate that requires disclosure to the U.S. Department of Homeland... Senator Paul rightly opposing mandatory minimums on drug sentence
I don't agree with Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky on every issue, but I sure agree with him that the War on Drugs is destroying our liberty, our Constitutional rights and our freedoms. It is awful public policy. It leads to SWAT raids on the wrong houses in the dead of night... Why the U.S. should cease recognizing the Vatican as a nation
Well, we've had a new Pope, in Pope Francis I, for half a week now. Not we, as the Catholic Church, but we as the world. I say the world because no matter what your religion might be (or if you have no religion like me) the Church is still very powerful in much... Obama advocates for gay rights in Inauguration speech

George Hotz, who has a medical marijuana prescription in the state of California, was arrested at a Homeland Security checkpoint in the state of Texas.

A few years ago I read a book about Judge Robert Bork, a man that then President Ronald Reagen nominated to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Albert Einstein, one of the great humanists of our times
Albert Einstein was one of the greatest humanists of our times. He became famed for his revealing of how much of our universe works, through the theories of General and Special Relativity. But he used this fame to support and further humanist ideas. He opposed the... Can the government violate the rights of Americans at the border?
An American named Bradley Jardis came back to the U.S., after a very short trip across the border into Mexico. When asked, he declined to answer how he was planning to use shot glasses, he bought in Mexico, to celebrate. Frankly, this question seems kind of silly and... Woman who needs medical marijuana given years in prison
This is an amazing case, because not only was a woman named Patricia Smith imprisoned for taking marijuana for medical purposes, but the jury that convicted her knew she was taking it for medical reasons. Also, even though they were informed that they did not have to convict... Did the U.S. Plan Egypt? Wikileaks Cables say so
