Politosaurus Rex: Controversy Stalemate
http://politosaurusrex.blogspot.com/2008/04/controversy-stalemate.html
Taking a chomp out of the mess that is US politics, one issue at a time. Friday, April 11, 2008. Reviewing the past week and the democratic primary battlefield brings little excitement. There were no primaries, no heated debates, no groundbreaking sex scandals, or NAFTA conflicts. On the whole Barack and Hillary are at a controversely stalemate, not necessarily a good thing in this drawn out primary race, where holding voters' interest may be just as critical as staying in the race. Give me a fucking b...

The Reluctant Republican: the Problem with Healthcare
http://thereluctantrepublican.blogspot.com/2008/03/problem-with-healthcare.html
Tuesday, March 25, 2008. The Problem with Healthcare. Over spring break my grandfather fell and hit his head and was taken to the hospital. My grandfather immigrated to the United States in his early 20’s from Portugal with a sixth grade education. He worked extremely hard to buy and grow his own business and is now successful enough to be able to send twelve grandchildren to school. There are a lot of questions in my mind that need to be answered in regards to healthcare. In many ways I am still uns...

http://gov4sale.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 23, 2008. The dilemma of defining a Public Intellectual. What is a public intellectual? How do you become one? Who decides who is or is not a public intellectual? These are some of the question that I have pondered on for the past couple of weeks. Trying to wrap my brain and come up with a simple explanation of a “Public Intellectual.”.

Of Ignorance: Lecture of a Lifetime
http://ofignorance.blogspot.com/2008/04/lecture-of-lifetime_12.html
Saturday, April 12, 2008. Lecture of a Lifetime. This man used to stalk me. Everywhere I went, he went. Normally I would have been extremely disturbed by such behavior however in this particular case postponed alerting the authorities due to the unique circumstances of the situation. My first encounter with Randy Pausch. Or The Measure of A Man. But The Last Lecture. A book written by, you guessed it, Randy Pausch. I once again came face to face with Randy Pausch, whose face was plastered on the cover.

Of Ignorance: Do your pants hang low...do they sag, do they flow?
http://ofignorance.blogspot.com/2008/03/do-your-pants-hang-lowdo-they-sag-do.html
Saturday, March 15, 2008. Do your pants hang low.do they sag, do they flow? On Thursday Florida lawmakers passed a bill that could result in suspensions for students who sport "droopy britches.". Translation: If you're a Floridian who sags his or her pants, you might be in trouble. Now, I can't help but imagine what a conversation in a Florida jail would sound like if this law were to be passed:. Jailman #1: Hey man, what're you in for? Jailman #1: Oh you know.I sagged some britches. Supporters of this m...

Saturday, March 29, 2008. T is for Tienanmen, O is for Olympics and C is for China.and Censorship. That the Games would promote greater openness in the formerly isolated country. Live broadcasts from Tienanmen Square were intended to showcase a friendly and confident China, a China that had put the deadly 1989 military assault in the past however with this measure, the events of late have clearly shown that China is anything but friendly, and far from confident.
