American key figures who were involved in the Watergate news developments provide a stinging critique of the current GOP.
I was a curious young student during The Watergate investigation and hearings. This major political news story involving a disgraced Republican President named Richard Tricky Dick Nixon in 1974 was a thirty-year prelude to the January GOP six insurrection. The takeaway is to never again give another criminal the keys to the Whitehouse.
History points to an unsuccessful protest in Albany, Georgia that actually helped #MLK Martin Luther King Jr. become a national leader.
Martin Luther King Jr. was a rising civil rights figure when he came to Albany, Georgia, in December 1961, keen to provide a shot in the arm to a desegregation movement that was gathering new steam.
How well does FOX Rupert Murdoch compare to Ebenezer Scrooge, the protagonist of Charles Dickens' 1843 A Christmas Carol?
At the beginning of the novella, Scrooge is cold-hearted miserable. The tale of his redemption by three spirits has become a defining tale of the Christmas holiday in the English-speaking world. Scrooge is a mean and miserly person.
The way I see it, there are at least eight types of friendship that human beings may wish to classify, understand and characterize.
There’s no doubt that social connections are important to our overall health, happiness and quality of life. There can be eight or many more, depending on our personal point of view. However it is up to us to keep a healthy lifestyle and stay happy.
Last night, I was channel surfing and stopped to watch #MSNBC’s @Lawrence on cable TV. O’Donnell, whom I had met years earlier when Lawrence was a guest on The McLaughlin Group program I was co-producing. On last night's show Lawrence was interviewing Aaron Sorkin and Sasha Baron Cohen about their award-winning film.
This is the American Republic. We're living in the land of the free and home of the brave. The bastion of liberty. In God We Trust. We have to learn t live together.
The phrase all men are created equal has to be one of the best known in the world. Indeed, it’s used so often that it has become a cliché. The phrase is from Jefferson’s Declaration of Independence written in 1776. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Declaration_of_Independence
The Republican Party also referred to as the Grand Old Party, is one of the two major political parties in the United States of America. The other is its historic rival, the Democratic Party. The RNC used to say they made a commitment to attract new voters and revitalize the image of the Republican Party. So what happened? The TRUMP Dump.
In honor of Martin Luther King Day, we want to express our gratitude for our community of thoughtful readers are supporters.
Dr. Martin Luther King believed in bridges, not walls and respected those who disagreed with him, while still taking a stand for nonviolence and racial justice. With the constant polarization in our nation today, his message is a great reminder to hope for something different and to speak out.
GOP-controlled US Congress is drinking a toxic brew of political polarization and gerrymandering that has the legislative body gridlocked and institutionally exists from one crisis to another.
The Republican Party does not deserve to be in charge. They have shut the government down at times and refuse to vote on legislation and presidential appointments.
USA can't afford to drag its feet any longer, we have gone without a properly functioning government for the last 8 years due to this obstruction. All apparently because the republicans were unhappy with a black president.
This is holding our country back. It is almost impossible to pass legislation it's all frozen up.
We need to break the logjam and Flip the Congress.
In the Senate, it would only take a change of 5 seats to Flip the Senate.
In the House, it would only take a change of 30 seats to Flip the House of Representatives.
All You have to do is Vote.
If you have difficulty getting to the poll to Vote use an Absentee Ballot.
