First off, no, this post has nothing to do with Tiger Woods or performance enhancing drugs. It has to do with how sports, sex, and art are used to distract people. In American society, these three thi…

Think back to the start of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Can you think of one, single person in the mainstream U.S. news that condemned these wars with a principled argument? I'll bet you can't. Beca…

I don't disagree with religion. Of course, I don't agree with it either. But the point is I can't disagree or agree with it. You can disagree or agree with capitalism, socialism, democracy, the theory…

I live in Ohio. And as such, I feel compelled to blog about the death penalty. A man, who was on death row for several years, had his execution date set to be a few days ago. But, when the executioner…

Just recently, I learned that there are a group of people who deny that Neil Armstrong (or for that matter anyone else) ever walked on the moon. In fact, they say that we have never even landed on the…

So, at age 93, Robert S. McNamara died. What I don't get about this guy isn't that he orchestrated the Kennedy/ Johnson war machine, it's the fact that he had an "epiphany" on the Vietnam war and rece…
