A Declaration of Independence - In Virtual CONGRESS

Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise.

Outreaching The Doctrine of Discovery

And even madmen manage to convey
Unwelcome truths in lonely gibberish.

(DAYTONA BEACH) - The Government, the United Nations, the academic community and a growing number of repentant churches seem to have the following in common:

Occasionally, they bestir themselves out of their “interests,” their disciplines, their congressional deadlock mode and their compensation fixation, and get all twitterpated over what they see as great advances in the simple process of recognizing that indigenous people the world over are actually real people...

Do Members Of Congress Read The Bills They Pass---Often Over A Thousand Pages Long?

The young clerk responded, “That’s our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations.”

(WASHINGTON, DC) - The U.S. Congress is held in increasingly low esteem. In his just-published book, "Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War," former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates provides us with this judgment of Congress:

"I saw most of Congress as uncivil, incompetent at fulfilling their basic constitutional responsibilities (such as timely appropriations), micromanagerial, parochial, hypocritical, egotistical, thin-skinned and prone to put self (and re-election) above country."
