So, what's going on? What would possibly cause a crack down backlash examination into the drugging of America?
Continue ReadingTruly an interesting pic to accompany one of the momentous political developments in years. I'm convinced that the consequence of George Bush's stubborn adherence to a failed Iraq policy is the devastation to the formerly morality-owningChristian super-far right constiuency....
Continue ReadingOh, there are so many interesting images of Tony Blair on the newswire today, now that Blair has officially set into place his new role as "former Prime Minister."
Continue ReadingI'm curious about John Burns' report last evening on the Dick Cheney Baghdad trip (#1) as compared to his follow-up piece this morning (#2). As well, I was interested in the headline change made early this morning to the original report (#3). I'm interested in all this, by the...

Specifically, I was interested in the visual interplay between newswire shots of the Queen...

Continue ReadingAnd ta-da! It's official. After agonizing for weeks over whether tank commander Prince Harry should be allowed to serve as a high-asset celebrity promotional vehicle (and prime IED target) soldier in Iraq, the military brass gives thumbs up!
Continue ReadingI was interested in the "photo dialogue" in this morning's NYT report on the Iraq spending battle. Leading the article is a close-up shot of Bush at a White House podium, the Jefferson Memorial in the distance, promising to veto the Democrat's war appropriations/withdrawal-timetable.
