Atheist for president of the United States?
United States, the most democratic country in the world, or at least that’s what we are made to believe, would end the presidency of its first atheist president silently, probably using a silver bullet.











Moody Mahmoud Vacations in NYC!

The Misshaping of a President
On the surface, Bush’s decision to stop drinking at the age of forty, would be the first independent, mature decision he had taken in his life. It might be counted as the first time he really tuned into reality and chose the appropriate and responsible action.











Najaf - now forwards towards an Iraqi revolution!
American and British flags burned and were trampled under foot by hundreds of thousands of Iraqis in Najaf last weekend. A crossroads has been reached from which this could be the spring board to a genuine revoutionary struggle against the US occupation and sectarianism. More of these actions are the only chance for Iraq to remain united and to drive out the occupiers as soon as possible.











Get off My President’s Back!
Hey world, calm down some! Gosh, golly, gee, if we're all so terrible just put America on “hold” for awhile until we get a new leader. Dubya’s warranty runs out next year, and we’re replacing him just as fast as our constitutional processes allow.











Presidential Campaigns: Financial Vampires
Why do I get the feeling that politics has become more about what's in their bank account than what's in their head?











'Declare a REAL War...Or Get OFF the Pot!'
(Inside Nancy Pelosi's head!)   Most of us have dreams.  Some of us even remember those dreams. Do you remember your dreams?  I do. I dreamed I was inside Nancy Pelosi’s hea...

Wanna' Trade Your Citizenship For Mine?
Wanna' Trade Your Citizenship For Mine? (Walk A Mile in My Red Shoes!) If you are a citizen of a country that's not America, I wish you well! I really do! It's too bad that I can't say the same for some of your governments.











Democrat's Pre-Nuptial Contract!
Democrats need the strongest effort in history to regain control of Congress. I believe their leaders need a framework to attract the huge number of voters needed. Something with a real...











The Evolution of a NEO-CON! ......or Please Come Back William F. Buckley, You Weren't THAT Bad!
It's time to realize wackos escaped from the booby hatch are advising the C student that runs America and the free world. Where did they come from? Were they nurtured or nourished? Are they hard-wired?











An Open Letter to North Korea
As a peace loving American, I want to warn all the North Koreans: Hey, our nutty leader is even more Froggy than your nutty leader! So, everybody over there, watch out! (Froggy is U.S. s...











Apotheosis of George Bush Jr. (Karl Rove's doing what?)
The Grand Old Party and rabid Rush Limbaugh fans still have a surprise up their sleeves. Unlike their ill-fated attempts to get Ronnie Reagan on Mount Rushmore, this secret mission amounts to a unexpected foray into a previously unexplored area: ART!











Ephemera from Poor Lue…June '06
John Donne said: “No man is an island, entire of itself…any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind…”

Happy President's Day!
How come nobody really celebrates President's day? Could it be the fact that the people we elect are such an embarassment?











Coming Home for Christmas in a Body Bag
Death of Ryan McGlothlin raises the question of getting out of Iraq. But his path to the military was a strange one. What do you think?











Who Will Take the High Moral Ground? Republicans, Democrats or Neocons?
Remember Jimmy Carter? He used to be President of the United States. That was in the late 70s. He was a nice guy. Well intentioned. Wore a sweater during the energy crisis. Turned off the Christmas lights to save energy. The USA had the “Misery Index”—the sum of unemployment rate and inflation rate. The Index was too high.











Have we gone too far in our quest for size
I got a call from my friend Gerard late Saturday night informing me that San Francisco 49er Offensive Lineman Thomas Herrion died immediately following a preseason game. “That hulk of a man kneeled down during the team prayer and just dropped stone dead. How in the hell could something like that happen?” my friend wailed.











Notes From POOR LUE: May 2005
Hunter S. Thompson ended gonzo journalism and his life recently. In tribute, I flew to Vegas on a friend’s credit card, checked into Caesar’s Palace, and then proceeded to gamble and drink and smoke as much as I could before passing out. I’d like to think these notes from Poor Lue would make him laugh one last time!











Barney, the White House dog reviews Jim Wallis' Best Seller
Every time any wussie says George W. Bush isn’t acting like a Christian, I start growling and try to bite ‘em. Uncle Karl said I’m such a faithful watchdog that he appointed me to be the spiritual sniffer to the President. As the First Doggie, I get to smell all this sacred stuff that W doesn’t wanna look at cause it makes his heat hurt.











To be hanged
It's a debate of the issue called 'death punishment.' Few consider it should be abolished and few think it should not. This article is nothing but my own opinion, but I hope you agree with it...

Prime Time Politics
The fall line up has been disappointing. Joey is not the new Frasier, The Apprentice 2 is more of the same, and I dont recognize anyone on Saturday Night Live. Even the usually reliable Scru...
