 | | The Day the World Watched as Freedom Died | | by Nelson Doyle, Apr 30, 2008 | | As I sit here writing this article, I cannot stop thinking about the day that this article will be banned.

This description is in the format APPARTS which becomes familiar if you take advanced placement history classes. | | Comments(0) Liked It: 1 |

 | | Who Watches Over Government | | by Phillip Torsrud, Apr 15, 2008 | | One basic tenant of democracy is that power must be shared. Clearly in our day, power is not shared by the classes as both Republicans and Democrats have sold out the poor to pander to the interests of corporate America, the upper class. | | Comments(1) Liked It: 1 |
