Saturday, May 17th 4:00-8:00PM Capitol Park, Augusta, Maine On Armed Forces Day, May 17th, please join us in supporting all of our deployed military members. We are teaming up with many local organizations who are trying to show our men and women overseas that they have not been forgotten. With all of the attention being focused on anti-war rallies, we thought it was just as important to focus some of our attention on supporting those who are away from their friends and family, fighting for the freedom of others. The rally will take place in Capitol Park from 4:00...

They were the usual chatty bunch of teens, catching the last train back to the western 'burbs that would get them home in time for dinner with the family. On any other Saturday in springtime they might have been coming from the mall. But on this day their Abercrombie and Fitch outfits were adorned with buttons and peace stickers. A couple of them had cameras slung around their necks. ``I mean it was a little disappointing,'' chirped one young woman. ``You know in the middle of this die-in, people were on their cell phones. It just didn't seem right, you...

Maine has the distinction of having the highest tax burden in the U.S. We will be having our second annual protest in Portland's Monument Square (Congress Street)on April 29th. We will have a person in a Rat donkey costume, some tax inmates and a fife and drum corps. It should be a blast. Gregg Laugerquist (that's "news" channel 13 for those of us who DON'T watch the local media) was at the Cumberland County Republican meeting the other night and he said that there is a 95% chance it will be covered. The event will start around 3:00 and is...

“GERMS IN THE WHITE HOUSE” I know you can’t threaten the president, and God knows I would never do that. That would be stupid and crazy and of course, morally wrong, not to mention legally wrong. No one should ever threaten the president. I think it might also be illegal to say that you merely wish him some sort of terrible harm.

And if you ...

Item A........ Bad American I am a BAD American. I am George Carlin. I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some mid level governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts squirting out babies. I'm not in touch with my feelings and I like it that way, damn it! I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer. I believe it's called the Boy Scouts for a reason. I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized. I believe that if you are selling ...

This is for discussion purposes only but is a real article. Some of the names have been changed to protect the guilty. ******************************************************** PORTLAND Republicans trudged into Merrill Auditorium for 90 minutes, peeling off coats and slush-covered galoshes. Meanwhile, cops stood in the sleet. Even the birds were grounded. Inside the garage at Gate 13 of Portland Jetport, where President Bush would land in Air Force One, four boxes of Oklahoma-born parakeets sat on the floor. They sang to the Secret Service agents who ordered the driveway plowed wide for their Chevys and waited for their boss. He landed right ...
