We came back on line around 9:00 last night.

The Bush administration's linear thinking mentality of wars and profits: problems are rooted in the axis of evil or in the devil Tuesday December 31, 2002 The American government's pursuit of war is suspect and the importance of oil both in its economy and determination of foreign policy undermines whatever moral authority it might once have enjoyed.
