A World in Chaos
I have to say that I am very concerned about the world. I don't think humans have a chance. In fact, I believe that "Humans are a doomed species." The only question I have is when will it finally happen?
This morning I read several online newspapers, looking at world news and I have to tell you that after an hour or so I had to stop. It is far too scary and depressing. There is so much going on abroad and here at home.

Texas sonogram bill shows its true color
by Peter Stern
Okay, so we now see how quickly state legislators can move idiotic bills like the anti-abortion bill through the House and Senate.

American Leaders Should Identify More With Libya and Muammar el-Qaddafi
There are important lessons to be learned
by Peter Stern
What is currently occurring in Libya is a culmination of a 40-year reign by leaders who do not live in the here and now realities of their citizens. For decades Colonel Qaddafi used Libya's oil wealth to entrench himself in riches and by building a nation in his own ill-conceived and self-involved perspective.

Anti-Abortion Bill in Texas on fast track for approval
This is not so much of a controversial topic as it is further government intrusion into our lives.
In addition, forcing every woman have a sonogram will add to the cost of our medical insurance and expenses WITHOUT doing anything really to protect anyone. Furthermore, prior to an abortion a sonogram is NOT needed because it does nothing to add further safety, nor would it motivate a woman not to have the abortion, as the embryo is just an embryo --- again, medically speaking. And lastly, how is the government going to ensure compliance of any such law? Get ready for unsafe black market abortions again, as there once were in the 1950's and 1960's, along with increased costs to every Texan who pays for health insurance. This is a stupid, STUPID bill that serves no genuine purpose but to ease the minds somehow of the anti-abortionist and religious right sector. What does the sector actually believe that forcing a sonogram will do prior to an abortion?

Texas Legislators Prepare to Pass Voter ID Bill
by Peter Stern
The Voter ID bill is a stupid, STUPID waste of time and energy. Voter fraud is NOT a major problem as the GOP would like us to think.
