SA@Takimag – 911 Truths

If 9/11 “Truthers” are wacky for believing the 9/11 attacks were orchestrated by the U.S. government, what about the conspiracy theorists who tried to convince Americans that 9/11 was orchestrated by Saddam Hussein?
For starters, the 9/11 Truth conspiracists have arguably more circumstantial evidence for their case than men like Stephen Hayes or Dick Cheney ever [...]

SA@Takimag – AIG Bonuses Are a Ruse

There have been many different takes on the controversy over the stimulus money going toward AIG bonuses, everything from the general public not understanding corporate payment structures, to politicians knowing full-well about the bonus payments and grandstanding after the fact.

When Gov. Mark Sanford compared President Barack Obama’s massive stimulus spending to the nation of Zimbabwe’s disastrous example, House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn said, “For him to compare the president of this country to [President Robert] Mugabe … It’s just beyond the pale.”

SA@Takimag – What Happened to the War on Terror?

From the invasion of Iraq in 2003 until the economy took a turn for the worse during the election, the “War on Terror” was the defining issue of the Republican Party.

In a column entitled “New states’ rights fight [...]
