America's ‘War on Drugs‘ is causing conditions that violate the eighth amendment and costing tax payers billions every year. The entire world knows it's wrong yet the US imprisons more of it's citizens than any other country. So called drug enforcement is a major part of the failure. People need to wake up and take a stand for right and wrong.

Too bad the Puffington Post closed comments on that piece. To define 'general welfare' as anything the fed wants to do is as dangerous any totalitarian Dictatorship.

I love it. Jordan Page's song was awesome too.

Thanks Neiman, I returned the favor. I'm following you now too.

Republicans shouldn't get a free pass on the blame game but Obama and crew have shown nothing but sound bytes. The problem is while everyone's sitting around pointing fingers and stroking each other real people are suffering in the worse way. Typical politics, nothing gets done. Just disgusting.

Sound bites never sounded more powerful. Drop the music in the background and it falls on it's face. Well, maybe not but it adds some very cool drama.

Add the state and local taxes in there and it's pretty easy to see why so many people are broke. And AmtraK? Really?

The reason medieval times had global warming was because they were burning all those witches. Today the heat is generated by all the hot air in Washington. That's my scientific observation.

Hi Anne, you\'re right, anything to use as ammunition. It doesn\'t have to be true, just believable. I\'m not a democrate or republican, I\'m independent. I\'m also not an Obama supporter but I believe once in office we need to step back and let him do his job. Anything less just hurts our country. The lies, back stabbing and attacks, from either side, are running the US into the ground.

I appreciate your comment and it\'s nice to see you again :)

Brad, we\'ve been friends for years and think very differently sometimes so I wasn\'t sure what to expect with your comment. My latest posts are going to be offensive to many people but I think honest discussion is important.

You\'re absolutely right, things are falling apart around us and the sheep seem clueless. Everything from the FDA to the patriot act. Our borders to the gulf spill. It\'s completely out of control.

Did you know it\'s illegal to film the police in Illinois? Why do we put up with that? I read the other day that some judge sent someone to jail for laughing in the courtroom. This is why I will never run out of content for this blog.

I know you have your own sites but if you ever want to post on TRISI let me know, you are always welcome. I\'ll set up your own account and you can log in and post anytime.
