I hope the musical community doesn't hold the recent armed raids on the Gibson Guitar Company (and a factory shutdown) against President Obama or Attorney General Holder. All of us, even musicians and artists, need to understand how important it is to be part of the push for social justice.
If you, or BB King, or anyone travels in America with a guitar having any parts made of wood, even if you got the guitar secondhand, you have to be able to document the provenance of that wood piece. It is the law of the land and the government wants you to respect their authority on that one.

I'm all for the governent in my country spying on citizens, especially anyone who isn't progressive like I am, but in Japan I think it is outrageous.

Europe is the spiritual home of socialism so that 50 billion is money well spent. It will get paid back.

You know the trouble with such a long primary and so many candidates is that it becomes more n more difficult for the hard-working journalists, who really do know what is best for us, to stay with the 'Republicans they are all crazy' angle and make the stupid sheeple believe it.

The haters are trying to derail Mr Obama's election. More mass killing like this hurts his chances.
"Americans were bitterly divided over the invasion."
About 70 percent were for it in 2003. Bush tricked them all. Of course he was an idiot but he could still fool people.It is hard to explain and besides telling people you oppose war is much easier and to the point.

Our president bows and apologizes as good as any public figure I can think of and still these Afghnaners burn him in effigy and call him a dog. So not fair.

Jobs was known to criticize President Obama. It was right to have the FBI hound him.

Why are senators like Nelson abandoning the president on this one? It is no time to break ranks.

The poor righties don't know what has hit em. The old fashioned institution of marriage has been weakened to near extinction, but claiming and even better demanding gay marriage get recognized as the most important issue EVER has proven to be a great wedge issue for us progressives to use against haters.

And it looks like American progressives will have to march on Canada and help them start a Occupy movement of their own. Our work is never done.

They need a homegrown Michael Moore now more than ever. Canada is slipping into fascism.

The trouble is Canada obviously has no grassroots opposition to abuse of power by the government. It's like Japan.I know many progressives who wanted to move up there when Bush was in office.It's a shame they didn't.They could have provided the conscience of that movement.

This means Canada has already engaged in torture and the government is preparing the sheeple to be less shocked.

Japan can just raise taxes on everyone (us gaijins too) ten or fifteen percent or so (politicians are going to want pay-offs for taking risks with this) and raise an army of their own. I see lots of boys (and girrrrls) who could make an army capable of protecting Okinawa from North Korea and China and have enough left over to do search and rescue when earthquakes and tsunamis ( 1995 Hanshin and 2011 Tohoku ) occur.
