We think a little torture will protect us

By John Servais · Sun Dec 5, 2004

Shame on Israel

Some election recommendations

By John Servais · Mon Nov 1, 2004

I don’t kid myself that these have much affect, as most who check this blog have their own strong opinions. But, for the record, and for those who ask me each election, here are some issues and candid

If we force it down their throats then it is not democracy

By John Servais · Mon Oct 18, 2004

The beauty of a website is you don’t force yourself on others. I got an email today from TL - and he graciously gave me the email addresses of dozens of people. And he gave them to many others. All of

Boy, does Crossfire ever deserve it

By John Servais · Sat Oct 16, 2004

Of course it was a “mistake”

By John Servais · Fri Oct 1, 2004

FoxNews.com posted fabricated Kerry quotes today - and was caught. Of course it was a “mistake” - but it had already done some harm. The reporter, Carl Cameron, is their reporter covering Kerry and he
