Also, look deeper into the findings in the poll, you'll find a big flip by Democrats and Republicans on this issue.

State Department: Keystone Pipeline not an environmental hazard
Let the games resume on this issue. State Department: Keystone Pipeline not an environmental hazard It may not be an environmental hazard, but the way landowners are being strong-armed by a foreign company to allow this thing to be built is. Remember, domestic oil production is already at a 20-y...
If we put half the energy in these situations that has been put into the Libya situation, we'd probably come up with something that might make sense and be effective. Instead, we use a ton of energy skirting around the issue, something I plan to stop doing. What we are doing is clearly not working, which means we need to be thinking about something else - and, yes, that includes how we view and use guns as PART of that discussion.
Maybe sight of more than a dozen dead kids will be enough to shake us free of stupid gun control non-debate
The president has to step up on this issue, for sure, to take on the extremes of the NRA. But so do the rest of us. Another mass shooting, this time at an elementary school in Connecticut. This time, maybe 27 people are dead, including maybe 18 little children. The details will surely change, an...

Finding my way to me
It's my opinion that Racism is very much still alive it doesn't take a genius to know that. Yes we may not live in constant fear of being lynched by the KKK but that doesn't mean that we are yet viewed as equal or completely accepted in all parts of... Continue reading
