Can you hear me now?

When the people talk, the U.S. Government listens.

That may be a flippant takeoff on the old E.F. Hutton ads, but it's looking more and more true -- and sinister -- each day.

First, government officials said that calls from America to foreign lands were being monitored in the war against terror.

Then we read in USA Today that tens of millions of Americans' phone call records were given to federal officials covertly so that "patterns could be detected".

Then ABC journalist Brian Ross learns from an unnamed senior federal official that he and another reporter, Richard Esposito, had had their phone calls monitored by the FBI.

One FBI official even remarked that Americans should get new cell phones.

I once again ask, WHAT COUNTRY ARE WE LIVING IN?!

We just "liberated" Iraq so that the people can live "free" and have the same rights that we enjoy here. Iraqis, you too can "freely" live with the government monitoring you, spying on you, harassing you. Wow...want Saddam back?

Can we get someone to come liberate us from Bush?

In her radio show, Dr Laura Schlesinger said that, as an observant Orthodox Jew, homosexuality is an abomination according to Leviticus 18:22, and cannot be condoned under any circumstance. The following response is an open letter to Dr. Laura, written by a U.S. resident, and posted on the Internet. It's funny, as well as informative: Dear Dr. Laura: Thank you for doing so much to educate people regarding God's Law. I have learned a great deal from your show, and try to share that knowledge with as many people as I can. When someone tries to defend the homosexual lifestyle, for example, I simply remind them that Leviticus 18:22 clearly states it to be an abomination ... End of debate. I do need some advice from you, however, regarding some other elements of God's Laws and how to follow them. 1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexic...

In memoriam...

I remember the first time I heard the name "Les Anderson." A bunch of Wichita State University communication majors were sitting around on campus, talking about classes they planned to take. Several people warned me: watch out for Les Anderson. He was tough. He had a murderous grading scale. It was nearly impossible to get an A. They weren't kidding. But he wasn't tough just to be a tyrant. From his teaching sprang a fleet of incredible, successful journalists, writers, editors, broadcasters, public relations experts, advertisers, non-profit professionals...I could go on and on. Most importantly, he created a legion of people who wanted to make a difference in the world. The greatest gift Les gave to them all? He believed in them, cared about them for their own personal stories as well as the stories they told for class assignments or in the pages of his hometown newspaper. Les was my teacher. My boss. My mentor. My conscience. My champion. My friend. When I started c...
