I noticed as my plane was descending into Salt Lake City clear evidence of the financial crisis and its impact on housing – it’s actually quite easy to see from above. Unfortunately I didn’t grab my camera quickly enough and the Utah aspects went unphotographed. Descending into Denver I was better prepared and I got […]
Dutch fury at US general’s gay theory over Srebrenica. Glad he’s retired. I wish he was muzzled. He’s an embarrassment. One of the more important, if not crazy nuts, organizations in the United States is Focus on the Family. Focus on the Family’s goal is to help family thrive, and claims as its mission: Focus on the Family is a global non-profit Christian organization with a vision for healing brokenness in families, communities and societies […] In response to yesterday’s post, I received some criticism from an anonymous commenter: Don’t trivialize what children do and don’t understand. There are some things that are family friendly and some things that aren’t – plain and simple. If you want people to respect you, you have to be a bit more open minded to […] Flying the flag for you. I got my Piraten Partei flag today—it was inexpensive enough and I picked up a few buttons supporting the party.

Dear Mr. TQE: Thank you for contacting me to share your concerns related to the revenue raising provisions in S. 1023, the Travel Promotion Act. I appreciate having the benefit […] Here is the response to my letter to Senator Bayh about S. 1023. I’m under the impression my letter was not read. Dear Mr. TQE: Thank you for contacting me regarding the fiscal condition of our country. I appreciate your thoughts and understand your concern on this important issue. I am a longtime […] Dear Senators Lugar and Bayh, I am an American living in Weimar, Germany, and as my last residence was in Bloomington, Indiana, I am an Indiana voter. As an American living in Germany I am acutely aware of how the United States is perceived by non-citizens. Actions by the US Congress that citizens resident in […] Love is in the hay! These are, by any account, extraordinary times to be an American. After 8 awful years, we have a president open to progress with respect to individual human rights, gay, straight, or transgendered. The GLBT community should be, by any reckoning, celebrating with wild abandon. The most recent victory: The […] |
