[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 519470, member: 2189"] Jim, Is Ted Rall also the cartoonist Ted Rall? The reason I ask is I saw this cartoon yesterday and it was done by a Ted Rall. I also LMAO at it too! Also George McGovern wrote an op-ed for the LA Times on our current policy regarding Iraq and Afghanistan. Voices in the African American community are starting to russle and in ways not good for President Obama or the democrat party. The Black Agenda Report had a piece entitled, "[URL='http://www.blackagendareport.com/?q=content/freedom-rider-no-better-democrats-0'][COLOR=red]Freedom Rider: No Better Off With Democrats[/COLOR][/URL]" which also offers an interesting perspective of our current political situation. And when it comes to transparency which was part of the [URL='http://www.barackobama.com/issues/ethics/'][COLOR=red]change[/COLOR][/URL] we were told was coming, I found this comment from the Freedom Rider blog that is produced by the editor of Black Agenda Report. [URL='http://freedomrider.blogspot.com/'][COLOR=red]Freedom Rider Blog[/COLOR][/URL] (Warning: If you hate Ahmadinejad/Iran/Chavez do not visit this blog. It will only cause you upset and jack up your bloodpressure) :wink2: It's interesting to read at the "Distant Ocean" link about the easy access to find things on the Bush White House website (and having data mined there myself I would echo that opinion) verses the Obama White House. And the folks at Distant Ocean as you might tell in reading are not by any stretch Red Staters! :happy-very: You mentioned getting some "left" perspective which I wholeheartedly encourage so I thought I'd throw a couple ideas your way. :peaceful: I will say this about President Obama however, initially when he spoke several weeks ago about legal action against Bush officials for over reach in regards to torture, President Obama, at the time, closed the door on leaving the past in the past which upset a lot of folks including this one. Now he seems to have "CHANGED" in regards to that position and I think that is a good thing and I also think he's responding to pressures from public outcries (another reason to be very vocal), again another good thing, responding to outcries that is. I don't believe we'll see mass trials and mass convictions of Bush adminstration officials but at least getting the truth all out on the table, transparency again, does let this country truly know where everything stands and we can put this issue to rest and move beyond it. It also let's the jury at the election booth have the ultimate say in conviction or aquital as it should be. jmo [/QUOTE]
