Famous Filibusters in Political History

Fri, 04 May 2012 00:54:26 -0500

The filibuster as a political delaying tactic has been a part ofthe American political process since the adoption of the U.S.Constitution. Though it was not used in the early years of thenation, the filibuster has been used hundreds of times since the's. Here are a few of the famous filibusters from ourpolitical history.The U.S. Constitution does not limit the length or nature ofdebate on the floors of the Senate or the House ofRepresentatives. The House has since adopted rules which limitthe length of debate since the House has a very large number ofRepresentatives. But the smaller Senate has always upheld theright of a recognized Senator to debate an issue for as long ashe or she wishes to hold the floor. Senate Rule and Rule ,the cloture rule adopted in , create some guidelines forconducting a debate and for closing the debate when it becomeslengthy.Senator Henry ClayIn Senator Henry Clay proposed a bank bill that was opposedby Senator John C.

The True Power of Terrorism

Thu, 03 May 2012 00:02:56 -0500

Those of us hundreds of miles from ground zero sat glued to ourtelevision sets with horror and disbelief as two of the tallestbuildings in the world slowly disintegrated in a violence ofdust and death.Since that bright September morning in , none of us havefelt the same. Undergoing an unexpected and brutal nationalrape, we shuddered at our own vulnerability and defenselessness.In grief, anger, and frustration, we gathered our tattereddignity around us and vowed repeatedly that it would neverhappen again. Next time, we would be ready, we would defendourselves, we would regain our sense of power andinvulnerability. We set out resolutely on the journey to makeour world safe again.Security was tightened at airports, border crossings, ports,bridges, and nuclear generating stations. Laws were passed toabridge civil liberties to better fight those out to hurt theUnited States. Action was implemented in Afghanistan to find theterrorist cells and overthrow their political s...

Dick Morris on Hillary Rodham Clinton 2008

Tue, 24 Apr 2012 00:20:34 -0500

The other night on Hannity & Colmes, Dick Morris, who is known for his political commentaries and unbiased outlook, stated that in general people have the wrong perception about Hillary's chances to win the Presidency of the United States.He states that the Democratic nomination for Hillary is not necessarily guaranteed. In his opinion, if Al Gore were to run, there is a chance that he would siphon off votes from the left and make the race competitive. Even if Gore were to announce his bid for the presidency, Morris believes that Hillary would likely be nominated anyways.In regards to winning the national office, Morris also says that Hillary's chances are better than you might think. She is consistently underestimated by members of both parties because the election will be one of momentous and historical porportions. First of all, this would be the first election ever in which a female was drafted to run for the presidency. Second, Hillary would be able to gain millions of new voter...

Congress should be a short term Civic Duty, NOT a career!

Wed, 18 Apr 2012 01:03:12 -0500

CONGRESS SHOULD BE A SHORT TERM CIVIC DUTY, NOT A CAREER! As a career, a seat in Congress or in any elective body becomes a conflict of interest. An incumbent who seeks reelection cannot freely vote his conscience, or his principles, for fear that he is going to offend some slice of the electorate, and therefore reduce his chances of reelection.Obviously, one way to correct this problem is to reduce or eliminate the option for reelection. In other words, establish either one or two term limits on all offices in government.In all the the cacophony among the pundits, editorialists, and bloggers about the reasons for the Democratic sweep in , nowhere does anyone address the the most obvious - that the bulk of the failings of our American electoral system arise out of the trend toward careerism and tenure in the body politic, particularly in Congress.No one has stood up and yelled "It's about reelections not issues, stupid!"No one seems to recognize that, in their desparate s...

The Freemasonic Order of the Golden Circle

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 01:07:26 -0500

Thomas Jefferson wrote a letter to Lafayette in that wentas follows: "I do not believe with the Rochefoucaults andMontaignes, that fourteen of fifteen men are rogue. I believe agreat abatement from that proportion may be made in favor ofgeneral honesty. But I have always found that rogues would beuppermost, and I do not know that the proportion is to strongfor the higher orders... These set out with stealing thepeople's good opinion, and then steal from them the right ofwithdrawing it by contriving laws and associations against thepower of the people themselves." "' the archetypal Roman shouldered the White Man's Burden, thearduous but fabulously profitable task of governing those whom,despite all evidence to the contrary, the Romans judgedincapable of governing themselves."

New Defense Secretary Changes Everything - Perhaps

Mon, 16 Apr 2012 02:42:47 -0500

On Election Day, the American people spoke very strongly that the direction the President and the Republican Party was taking America towards, is not the direction the country wanted to go in. Presidents are not oblivious to polls. They may not honor them, but they are not oblivious to them. The most important issue in the campaign turned out to be two issues according to the exit polls. They were CORRUPTION, and IRAQ in that order. The President was quick with a lightening type response to the election. I personally felt Donald Rumsfeld was going to be fired or weeks after the election to allow him to leave with his dignity intact. The President dispatched the now lamb duck Secretary within hours after the voters made their decisions. In doing so, the President is insuring that this Congress will ratify the nomination of Robert Gates, not a Democratic Congress convening in January of . What type of man is Robert Gates, the D Sec as they call the Secretary of Defense? There are...

Implications of America's Withdrawal from Iraq

Tue, 10 Apr 2012 01:06:28 -0500

The Democrats have taken over Capitol Hill, and have a mandate to withdraw American forces from Iraq ASAP. It is likely that in the medium to long term, this move would have great impact on Israel The elections held in the US last week revolved around a number of issues, but there is no doubt that chief among them was the war in Iraq. For three and a half years, the US army has been mired in Iraq. As may be recalled, the original objective of the war was to find and destroy non-conventional weapons developed by Iraq. But as time went on, it seemed these weapons were removed from Iraq, at some period before the war.For this reason, and for many others, which we will explore in a different article, the war in Iraq has resulted in a major decline in the popularity of President George W. Bush and the Republicans. The Democrats, who criticize the war in Iraq and call for withdrawal, have won a majority of seats in both the Senate and the House of Representatives.In light of this, there...
