The
Return of America |
|
The tip off
that things were taking a turn for the worst came long before “homeland”
slithered into the lexicon customarily used to refer to America.
President Bush’s top domestic agenda item after being sworn in as the
nation’s 43rd President in 2001 was a $1.6 trillion tax cut which benefited
the top 1% of the nation’s tax payers. The Senate eventually passed the cut
though it was for only $1.35 trillion over 10 years. By August 2001, there
were $300 and $600 tax rebate checks in the mail for the chronically
over-taxed—which, incidentally, were gradually re-imposed by State and local
governments. Only twice before had such a government tax give-away happened.
By the summer of 2001, with the new agenda firmly on track, the Bush
administration had decided to ditch a number of international treaties, such
as Kyoto, and essentially told the world that America was running on a
bolder, more American centric, new track into the 22nd century.
"You're thinking of
Europe as Germany and France. I don't, I think that's old Europe."
Then came September 11, 2001.

ATLANTIS:
ANCIENT LEGACY, HIDDEN PROPHECY by
John M. Greer
Reviewed by Lynard Barnes
The complete title of this book is ATLANTIS:
ANCIENT LEGACY, HIDDEN PROPHECY. Good title but it does not do justice
to the scholarly content of the book. ATLANTIS is the most erudite,
straightforward and definitive book you will probably find on the
history and mythology of the “lost continent”. In this relatively short
two-hundred and fifty-seven page book, which includes a glossary, John
Michael Greer answers just about every question an Atlantis skeptic
would want answered and an Atlantis believer would prefer not be raised

A Family Cursed By Kevin F.
McMurray
Reviewed by Lynard Barnes
On 25 March 2008, Carlos Trujillo was arrested along with his cousin and
charged with murdering Andrew Kissel in April 2006. The title of Kevin
F. McMurray’s book seems rather appropriate in describing the death of
two brothers, Robert and Andrew Kissel, in unusual circumstances. The 25
March 2008 arrest seems to be an additional chapter of the book which
could not be written in 2006.
