This has me outraged!!! I cannot imagine being forced to give-up custody of children for ANY reason. It is bad enough we must give up family to the risks of warfare!! Can anyone explain reasonably how this is decent and moral on behalf of the children?!?

President Barack Obama left the door open Tuesday to prosecuting Bush administration officials who devised the legal authority for gruesome terror-suspect interrogations, saying the United States lost "our moral bearings" with use of the tactics. YES!!!!

The following message from MoveOn.Org is worth reading. The chart belongs with it. Be sure to follow the sources for further clarification, etc.

This is ridiculous. The media has been obsessing about President Obama's plan to roll back the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans—from 35% to 39.6%—even asking if that makes him a socialist.¹

But do you know what tax rate the wealthiest Americans paid on the top portion of their earnings at the end of Ronald Reagan's first term? 50%. 

Under Richard Nixon? 70%. Under Dwight Eisenhower? 91%!

Shocking, right?

And for all the whining about rolling back Bush's irresponsible tax cuts, the truth is that Obama's plan cuts taxes for 95% of working Americans. Further, it closes huge tax loopholes for oil companies, hedge funds and corporations that ship jobs overseas so that we can invest in the priorities that will get our economy back on track.²

We saw a great chart in The Washington Monthly³ that shows just how absurd Republican complaints about Obama's budget are. Check it out and pass it on:

Thanks for all you do.

This essay, the high school winner of The Nation's Student Writing Contest, argues that until inequities in education are eliminated, a permanent underclass will continue to exist.

Hi Friends,

This is not for a cause -- it's just rather interesting. However, I've not made the Front Page in awhile so thought I'd give this a try.

Thanks & Peace, Kathleen R
