Has Obama Ended the "War on Terror"?
See All NT Reviews » NT Rating: 4.6
Bush was apparently so inexperienced and over his head with the job as president, that he relied heavily on those who worked for him. He apparently does not have the patience for great detail and kinda feel in line with the arguments and proposed actions that were sold to him by people who knew exactly where his buttons were and when and how they should push them. Cheney caused, in my opinion, the most damage and seems to have had no trouble essentially running the foreign policy ... More »
This is a reasonably honest assessment of the damage the Bush administration has done to the country and the virtual cost of the past eight years.

Gallup is generally considered the grandfather of all the polling services, although I have heard stories over the years that they skew Conservative in their questioning. Overall though, I believe they are fair and objective with the questions they ask, and their methods of reporting their results.
This is a first-hand account of a young man in the allegedly "manliest and most macho" branch of our military, and yet, after being frightening to reveal himself, finally came out to his fellow Marines, and they all said it was no big deal. This along with the quotes of major military big-wigs and well documented stats to show how attitudes within the military has changed, presents a compelling reason for why the government should re-think and remove its bans on gays serving openly ...

Jane Fonda makes big news stories, especially when it comes to her anti-war views. Although, she developed a rather negative following due to some of her anti-war exploits during the Viet Nam debacle, this time she is with a cause that is shared with the vast majority of Americans including military families. It's true there are other people in the public eye who are taking an active role in this anti-Iraq war spectacle. But Jane has a very special cache about her for obvious ... More »
