The High Price of Oil

Apr 30th

Posted by Stephen Fofanoff in Current Events

For several years now, we've been talking about oil in the United States. A significant portion of the 2008 election debate centered around oil. So often, we heard the question from conservatives, conservative-wannabes, and anyone else looking for airtime, "what's wrong with offshore drilling?" They told us how safe it is, and besides, if anything ...

The Secret, outlining all of the intricacies of the Law of Attraction, among other spiritual laws, continues to be among the top-selling books in the world. But The Secret is fundamentally flawed. And I'll tell you why. And I won't charge hundreds of dollars for the companion workbook, DVD set, or place you on any ...

You can find the "official comparison" of the Health Care Reform bills from the Senate and House here. What do you think? Personally, I think the provisions of the House bill are better for the American people. The best way to participate in government is to stay informed on the issues and at the very least read ...

I have to tell you: I'm tired of American politics. I don't watch the news or read the newspaper anymore because I find that I just get frustrated and angry over things that I apparently have no control over. Big corporations and special interested and lobbyists and political parties have hijacked our government and everyone ...

You've seen me write about this before. It can be so upsetting to understand Christianity, to get what Jesus was talking about, and then to see the Social Conservative Nazis in the United States claim to be basing their words and actions on Christianity.I received an email yesterday that got my entire day side tracked. ...

I watched the Presidential speech about health care reform last night and I wanted to take a moment to talk about what President Obama got right. This isn't about politics, health care reform, or policy... this is about more than that. 1. Character Counts. President Obama talked briefly about a letter he received from Ted Kennedy, a ...

I looked in the mirror this morning and saw the angry mob looking back at me. I am angry, frustrated, and looking to break something. Fast. I haven't always been this way. I spent the last eight years quietly going about my business of being an American, keeping silent on so many issues: torture, Katrina, ...
