S/SW blog philosophy -

I credit favorite writers and public opinion makers.

A lifelong Democrat, my comments on Congress, the judiciary and the presidency are regular features.

My observations and commentary are on people and events in politics that affect the USA or the rest of the world, and stand for the interests of peace, security and justice.

An article that should disgust you -- A California Orange County (tea party activist) Republican allegedly sent an offensive Obama email (depicting the President as an ape) - from Yahoo! News.  The County Republican Chairman, Scott Baugh was quoted as saying,
. . . that he wants an ethics investigation into the incident.
"It's just highly inappropriate, it's a despicable message, it drips with racism and I think she should step down from the committee," said Baugh.

If you live in an area where there is a lot of drilling for natural gas, this recent study found that fracking for natural gas is more hazardous than burning coal - according to Yahoo! News.And finally, you will be amazed by the following three items:
  1. Safes, cash washed up on Japan shores after the tsunami -according to an April 10 story from Yahoo! News. 
  2.  We learn of a World War Two era German Dornier 17 bomber that was found intact underwater - from Yahoo! News Photos.
  3. "The Little Things In Life" is the title of a set of 20 amazing photos from Live Science.  Immense magnification is the secret technique.
