Lost.

Chris Hedges bemoans the Left and the role of corporations.

Things don't smell so good...

Joel Pett, Lexington Herald-Leader

Some things need to be looked at in a different light. Other things need to be looked at in context.

Spreading Peace & Democracy Update: The US wants to do more raids in Pakistan. Afghan and Iranian forces clash. Things are getting better all the time, don'tcha think? Tough questions plague our allies. Trouble at the Roof of the World: Nepalese authorities authorize the use of force to stop Olympic protests.

They create a desolation and call it peace. Euphemism & Violence.
