Writing this from just a few blocks from the UCLA Hospital, where just a few hours ago, Michael Jackson passed away from heart failure. Where I live, we often “hear” the presence of dignitaries, and the rich and famous, since we are only blocks away from major Los Angeles Hotels, and the Beverly Hills [...]

The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country.

If “Joe the Plumber” only knew that the Republicans he so admires really hold him in disdain. His only value to them is good old reliable fodder to fuel their war chests. He’s a believer OK, and a fool.
If their exists any doubt that the Republican party is dominated by the NeoCon [...]
