A National Day of Repentance As we respond with sorrow to the tragedy in Charleston, we must look at who we are as a people. Until we acknowledge our wrongdoings, we will not move forward with the changes that are needed. We need a National Day of Repentance.

Response on charlie hebdo Freedom of speech is an important right. But it also carries responsibilities. Should immature people light a fire in a gasoline environment? We have a tense world. We should not be surprised at retaliation when there is a lack of judgment.

Sony Pictures in Hollywood has been Hacked Sony has changed its mind. It will not let hacking of its studio disrupt the release of its latest film, "The Interview." It's a matter of freedom of speech. Or rather, the right to "dis" the "other." We're Americans, so anything goes. Merry Christmas and "Peace on earth."

Borders, Borders The Middle East is in chaos. It's time to fix the mistakes of the past. It's time to find ME, not Western, solutions. Why not let the UN try to fulfill its role to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war?
