He make some valid points in this speech, but still there are no winners in wars; while leadership make the decisions the people bare the burden of death. Its not the politicians son’s and daughter’s who are losing their lives in these senseless wars.

You have to be living under a rock to think that the U.S. really want to stop drug trafficking. Drug trafficking is big business for this country. Think about how many prisons would close and how many government held positions would no longer exist if drug trafficking ended. They don’t really want it to end the war on drugs is just a bunch of nonsense.

What is happening to our privacy? Since 9-11 things have really taken a turn for the worst as far as citizens’ rights to privacy. CNN has just released photos that are taken by airport security full body scanners, and it not a good look Check it out:
This is just too much America at what point did something of this nature become ok and better yet who authorized something like this (The Bush Administration); something has to be done and now. CNN stated that privacy advocates plan to call on the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to suspend use of “whole-body imaging,” the airport security technology that critics say performs “a virtual strip search” and produces “naked” pictures of passengers.
The national campaign, which will gather signatures from organizations and relevant professionals, is set to launch this week with the hope that it will go “viral,” said Lillie Coney, associate director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, which plans to lead the charge. “People need to know what’s happening, with no sugar-coating and no spinning,” said Coney, who is also coordinator of the Privacy Coalition, a conglomerate of 42 member organizations. She expects other groups to sign on in the push for the technology’s suspension until privacy safeguards are in place.
Right now, without regulations on what the Transportation Security Adminastrationdoes with this technology, she said, “We don’t have the policy to hold them to what they say. They’re writing their own rule book at this point.” The machines “detect both metallic and nonmetallic threat items to keep passengers safe,” said Kristin Lee, spokeswoman for TSA, in a written statement. “It is proven technology, and we are highly confident in its detection capability.” Lets us know how do you feel about having your nudes taken without your knowledge.
