Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Friday, June 08, 2007. The People Spoke, But did they listen?

Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Tuesday, June 12, 2007. For the Love of Freedom! It seems that wherever President Bush travels in the world, he encounters protests, anti-American crowds, hatred, and even violence. At the G8 summit, German police arrested numerous protesters for throwing stones, bottles, and nearly anything else available in a protest against President Bush’s visit. That is… until the President arrived in Albania this past Sunday. Americans have never known the oppression of a dictat...

http://afernald.blogspot.com/2007/06/never-too-safe.html
Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Tuesday, June 26, 2007. One of the most important roles of being a parent is protecting our children from danger. Unfortunately, more and more we are hearing of children put in danger despite the precautions that parents take. Let me tell you the story behind one family that learned through first hand experience that you can never take too many precautions. Samantha lived with her mother in the house of her mother's current boyfriend. Cisneros was a long time frie...

Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In: First Amendment - Right to Assembly and Petition
http://afernald.blogspot.com/2007/06/first-amendment-right-to-assembly-and.html
Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Wednesday, June 13, 2007. First Amendment - Right to Assembly and Petition. Recently, I have had several people tell me that I am attempting to be “the moral authority”. My first though was that they must be nuts to even think that I might be the authority on morals. But as I considered what they were saying, I finally figured out how to determine what a moral authority just might be. Here are my thoughts:. Maybe it’s because I feel that when the state legislatu...

Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Wednesday, July 04, 2007. The Birth of a Nation. On July 4, 1776, the Declaration of Independence was approved by twelve of the original thirteen colonies (New York did not vote), though the declaration was not formally signed by the fifty-six delegates to the Continental Congress until August 2.

Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In: Fair Trade?
http://afernald.blogspot.com/2007/06/fair-trade.html
Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Monday, June 11, 2007. China, on June 9th, rejected a shipment of pistachio nuts from the United States because they said it contained ants. However, there has also been some speculation that this may be in retaliation for some shipments rejected by the US due to safety concerns. And China wants to “retaliate”…. Does this sound like a fair trade? You can email Alan at alan@alanfernald.com twenty-four hours a day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Iraq - By Iraqis.

http://afernald.blogspot.com/2007/07/two-weeks-late.html
Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Sunday, July 01, 2007. I realize that there are a lot of people out there who have become regular readers of this blog, and I must sincerely apologize for almost completely missing the last two weeks. Life has been rather hectic as I got extremely involved in performing my civic duty of protesting. How will this play out? Personally, I hope that Morrison places the most vocal anti-abortion prosecutor to fight this battle in court. Maybe even bring back Kline to wi...

http://afernald.blogspot.com/2007/06/our-rights-and-constitution.html
Whattya Know and Whattya Believe In. Saturday, June 09, 2007. Our Rights and the Constitution. Many Americans go about their lives blindly, learning about their Constitutional rights from shows such as Law and Order, COPS, et al… They also hear on the news people complaining about losing their “right to free speech”, while also “pleading the fifth”. What are our rights, and where did they come from? However, the Constitution told us how the Government would work, but it did not give that same government ...
