On Sunday, February 13, 2001 a group of Muslims attended an event where a group of "patriotic" protesters held signs that read, "God Bless the USA". But as 'Sharia Law' and 'Jihad' are demonized in Western media and by our elected officials, a closer look reveals another side to the story.

Should the EPA change their campaign of "Managing Oil Spills" from "You dump it, you drink it" to something more fitting for BP? Should fines for dumping be proportional to annual income?

On this date (May 12) in 1962, Douglas MacArthur delivered his famous "Duty, Honor, Country" valedictory speech at the United States Military Academy. The original speech may be read here, but I have made small changes so that it might be a more fitting address from the shores of the Gulf of Mexico to a dying America 48 years later.

After distributing nearly a half million newspapers throughout central Ohio and across the country, I passed the torch on to someone I believe will take The Liberty Voice to "the next level"...The following article appeared as a farewell of sorts to my readers in the latest edition of The Liberty Voice newspaper.

If we are to celebrate Mother's Day in a way that truly honors our mothers, let us bring the occasion back toward its original intention. In commemoration of the sacrifices of Gold Star Mothers, let us spread the word of Julia Ward Howe's Mother's Day Proclamation. It is my sincere hope that one day, Howe's dream of a "general congress of women" shall meet to help usher in an era of peace on Earth.

The last refuge of freedom -- our great experiment-- has turned its back on the very thing that made this country great--our Constitution. Where the "rule of law" was once king, we see everywhere its desecration. What then can the people actually do about it? One word: Nullify.

When I honestly look at the ability of weathermen to accurately predict a decent 5-day forecast here in Ohio using all sorts of high-tech gadgetry which tracks current global weather patterns, I definitely doubt the wisdom of Al Gore and his followers to use the measurements of one (harmless) trace element encased in ancient ice and predict with absolute certainty the coming catastrophic change in our weather.

Since the beginning of trade, the fat cat banksters just won't go away. Economists continually try and sell the public the idea that recessions or depressions are a natural part of what they call the "business cycle", but recessions and depressions only occur because the Central Bankers manipulate the money supply, to ensure more and more is in their hands and less and less is in ours.

On this day, we honor not only the Puritan Pilgrims who courageously escaped the religious tyranny of England to establish a society where they could enjoy religious freedom and who were befriended by the Pokanoket Indians of the Wampanoag Confederacy to enjoy the bounty of the new world, we should also remember to honor their principles which led to the creation of the US Constitution and made our American bounty possible.

Now listen folks. We all know about the big dust-up between President Bush and Senate leadership over his wanting to change the language of the Geneva Conventions, right? Well, on Thursday, they reached a compromise. And that's not just a victory for Bush-it's a victory for the country. Because basic human rights is something we all need to compromise on.

The Liberty Voice had planned to record a local public debate which was held in a publicly-funded school. but incumbent Pat Tiberi agreed to come only if the sponsoring groups agreed that no recording devises would be permitted--without an exception granted even to the press. The question is, if Pat Tiberi exercised his influence to abridge the freedom of the press at home, can he be trusted to defend the Constitution in DC?
