- Did 9/11 Justify the War in Afghanistan?There are many questions to ask about the war in Afghanistan. One that has been widely asked is whether it will turn out to be “Obama’s Vietnam.”1 This question implies another: Is this war winnable, or is it destined to be a quagmire, like Vietnam? These questions are motivated in part by the widespread agreement that the Afghan government, under Hamid Karz […]

- Obama uses national security excuse to cover up embarrassing informationPresident Obama’s Nixonian assault on the press is rooted in the mistaken belief that leaks of “national security” information can do great harm to the country’s security. Therefore, Obama and his attorney general, Eric Holder, a former District of Columbia judge who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan and vetted by the ultra-conservative Federalist Soc […]

- If A Neocon Is Happy With Obama, You Shouldn't BePresident Obama gave a national security speech this afternoon. It appears that many are latching onto the following statement from the speech: "This war, like all wars, must end." He was referring to the War on Terror, and supposedly the statement shows that a different approach or tone is being taken than that of George W. Bush.I don't buy i […]
- Bill Kristol's Empire of DeathNon-interventionists can learn a great deal by observing when the differing factions of the neo-conservative enterprise take to exposing each other. Take the Left-neocon New Republic, a magazine that hemorrhages money at such a rate that it literally had a hard time being given away until Facebook kid mega-millionaire Chris Hughes decided to snatch it up wit […]
- The Failed Neocon Attempt to Destroy an American Anti-war GroupThe war over war with Iran has many battlefronts. Inside Washington, the battle line is between a small coalition of peace and security, non-proliferation and religious groups opposing war and favoring a peaceful solution to the stand off with Iran, and a well-funded war machine comprising neoconservative organizations who believe war with Iran should have s […]
- Benghazi: A new nadir for neocon nuttinessWhen I attended a conference of conservatives outside Washington recently, I talked with a number of retired special-operations officers. They were devoted to exposing the bureaucratic bungling that led to the deaths of two Navy SEALs in Libya last Sept. 11. I could see their point.

Populism, Progressives and Public Unions
February 27, 2011 by SARTRE · Leave a Comment
The divide in the Disunited States of America opened wider with the concerted effort of progressives and teacher union’s latest escape from reality. When people lament that there is little civility left in this country, they mostly refuse to face facts. There is a pitch battle for the hearts and minds of citizens. So far the public education lobby has been winning the war. Their victory is self-evident with the sorry state of literacy much less rational ability that passes for the collective consciousness of the public. The prime directive and accomplishment of the government school system is the development of a society of fools and idiots.
