Judge Samuel Alito, the most recent nominee to the Supreme Court is another really strange choice. I wonder if The White House has been doing their homework. It has been reported that he refused to recuse himself from two cases in which he had personal, financial conflicts of interest. Does that really show just prudence? Is this really befitting of a Supreme Court Justice?

The concept of Unity is built into our currency. E pluribus unum is written on every dollar, every coin, it is the most common symbol of unity in our daily lives. We are One. The founding fathers got it, they understood, and wrote their version of democracy and social responsibility based on Unity based on the concept of understanding that we are all one people.

There is no number more powerful than One. One person can do so much if you are willing to get a little dirty and work hard. Rosa Parks was a famous One, but we can all do our little bit. Sometimes you might think your efforts are a waste of time but they are not. It may take years to see the the fruits of your labor. But your power can affect the lives of many, by giving joy, peace and friendship.

Trick or Treat-Happy Halloween #138 Monday October 31, 2005

Killed In Action over 2000 and counting. The headlines read "Milestone in Iraq, 2000 dead". The numbers are so deceiving. What about the 7800 wounded and sent home or the 8500 wounded and sent back in? We need to support our men and women over there and make sure our government isn't minimizing their loss. This is a gigagantic quagmire, the violence is escalating, what is the exit stragegy?

Harriet Miers withdrew this morning as a nominee for the Supreme Court, and I think that is a very good thing. The fact that she was unwilling to be open and let Americans know who she is and what she is about is not in the best interest of this country. This is a government of the people and by the people, and if you are not willing to tell us who you are you just don't belong in that position.

Rosa Parks is an American Hero. A woman who quietly, peacefully, guided public consciousness towards racial equality. To me she is a courageous and inspirational role model. A woman who refused to be marginalized or acquiesce to demeaning treatment. We as a society have come a long way in 50 years, but we have a long way to go. Like Rosa Parks, the champions of our future will be Women.
