Ambassador to the United Nations havs often been viewed as second-class or B-level diplomatic job and with the current presidential perspective, the UN has become a troublesome entity and the appointment of…

The United States Is In Deep Doo doo! In the end, there is no such thing as a free lunch. You cannot make money grow in value by shaking it back and forth from one bank to another. You cannot prosper a nation by doing each other's laundry, or filling out their government mandated and greatly obfuscated paperwork, or flinging stock certificates around which may have as little real worth as Federal Reserve Notes. To make money, to show a profit, you must make products that somebody else wants to buy, and sadly, that is a capability the United States has allowed to slip away in great measure.

Historical Statistics of the United States
http://www.csep.ucr.edu/ HSUS/HSUS.html

The goal of the project is to produce an updated, expanded, and thoroughly revised edition in print and electronic formats of various historical statistics of the United States, to be collected from the Historical Statistics of the United States, Millennial Edition, Colonial Times to The Present (Cambridge University Press). The Historical Statistics of the United States was first published in 1949 by the Bureau of the Census with the advice and assistance of the Social Science Research Council. A second and much larger edition appeared in 1960 under the same auspices. The third edition, Historical Statistics of the United States, Colonial Times to 1970, Bicentennial Edition, was published by the Bureau in 1975 and was expanded to two volumes. In the year 2005 Cambridge University Press will publish the fourth, millennial, edition of this classic reference work. This has been added to Reference Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Legal gay marriages in the United States

Legal gay marriages in the United States 05/17/2004 03:03 PM

Massachusetts has become the first state in the US to allow same-sex couples to get married. Whether it will last or be crushed under the weight of a Constitutional amendment I don't know, but it's bloody wonderful in the meantime:

Other towns and cities across the state were also prepared to wed large numbers of same-sex couples as the law came into force. The Supreme Court ruling upheld a decision by the state's highest court. It said that denying marriage licences to same-sex couples violated anti-discrimination laws.

The Massachusetts ruling has fuelled heated debate across the country - and the controversy has been particularly intense in an election year. In a statement, President Bush said he had called on the Congress "to pass, and to send to the states for ratification, an amendment to our Constitution defining and protecting marriage as a union of a man and a woman as husband and wife. The need for that amendment is still urgent, and I repeat that call today." His rival John Kerry - who is a Massachusetts senator - is also opposed to same-sex marriages, but favours a more limited form of legal recognition.

I think the issue of gay marriage only started to matter to me when I realised that many of my gay friends actually wanted to get married. And on the day when a friend of mine showed me a marriage booking form online in San Francisco and I started looking for the section for gay people and there wasn't one - It was all the same form... That affected me too I think - to realise that while it was clearly an issue at the moment, the whole point of this battle was about completely collapsing that difference around relationships. That's a pretty cool goal...

What's really wrong with the United
States medical system?

What's really wrong with the United
States medical system? 10/30/2003 09:20 PM
The United States health care system is sick. The prices of health insurance are skyrocketing, 40 million Americans are uninsured, and more join them every day. The uninsured are often charged extortionate amounts of money for emergency care and forced to do without any other kind, doctors are often squeezed to the point of barely making a living, and the result is unnecessary deaths and bankruptcy for many. What can be done about this? Some suggest that the government completely socialize health care, becoming the only payer for medical goods and services in the United States. Others suggest "market-based" solutions incorporating tax credits for health insurance, tort reform, medical savings accounts, and other "conservative" ideas. However, neither of these solutions address the real problem. Health care is already a market in the United States, and a reasonably free market as well! However, it's the wrong type of market. In this article, I discuss the situation as well as I can understand and suggest some possible solutions.

Even the president of the United States
sometimes must have to stand naked

Even the president of the United States
sometimes must have to stand naked 07/15/2004 01:55 AM

Two decades ago I had the odd and daunting experience of defending my undergraduate thesis, on several of Shakespeare's plays, before a panel of scholars. While hardly as rigorous as the real orals a PhD thesis is supposed to be subjected to, this encounter was part of what my department at Harvard required for graduation, and I faced it with some trepidation.

When I walked in, I was introduced to William Alfred, the playwright, poet and English professor. I hadn't studied with Alfred, and had no idea what to expect from the rumpled man. He broke the ice with a simple question: At the start of "King Lear," Cordelia refuses her royal father's demand for a profession of love. There's a foreign phrase that describes her act in legal terms -- what is it?

I'm not sure how many layers of my brain I had to dig through to find it, but somehow I retrieved the desired answer, the medieval label for an injury to the royal office: "Lese majeste!" Alfred's eyes twinkled; my response seemed to satisfy my interrogators' basic requirement of literacy, and from there, all went swimmingly. (Alfred, a brilliant and generous soul with whom, alas, I only had a handful of further conversations, died in 1999.)

Of all things, this distant recollection popped into my head after I finally caught up with Michael Moore's much-debated "Fahrenheit 9/11." Many words have already been flung across the political spectrum about the movie. I will limit my contributions to this one phrase: What Moore has, I think, accomplished, particularly in the movie's more coherent and better-assembled first half, is an outrageous and highly effective act of lese majeste.

George Bush campaigned as an informal man of the people, and he did not carry a very dignified bearing into the Oval Office. (Remember that strange boil on his face during the Florida recount?) But from 9/11 on, his team of handlers began to weave a cocoon of larger-than-life pomp around him. Partly, it was what the nation wanted; it was also smart political opportunism. It has, to be sure, frayed some since the Iraq war and its attendant scandals. The "Henry V"-style bullhorn at ground zero struck a chord with many Americans; the "Mission Accomplished" aircraft carrier stunt backfired.

But "Fahrenheit 9/11" methodically dismantles this president's carefully manicured dignity: It says to the viewer, "Pay attention to the man behind the curtain -- he's smaller than life." The movie's most indelible sequences are those that show our president as he really was in the face of the great crisis of 9/11: Not, as we were told by Showtime' s "DC 9/11," a stirring take-charge commander, but a passive photo-op participant who sat paralyzed for achingly long minutes of "My Pet Goat" rather than take the initiative to say "excuse me" to the class and leave the room.

My colleague Andrew O'Hehir drew a connection between Moore and Dario Fo, the Italian playwright/performer most famous for his assaults on the dignity of the papacy. To be sure, Moore has none of Fo's skills as a physical clown and only a fraction of his instincts as an entertainer; Fo is an artist, while Moore is chiefly a propagandist. Still, it's a good comparison: The two men share a willingness -- more than that, a ferocious determination -- to strip away the niceties of ceremony from powerful men so that we can see their misdeeds.

That refusal of deference is, after you get past all the various problems with "Fahrenheit 9/11" as documentary and as history, what counts. The TV networks (though they thought nothing of rummaging through the details of Bill Clinton's tawdry sexual escapades) have decided to protect Bush from unflattering images. It falls to Moore to dig up the footage of protesters pelting his inaugural limousine with eggs, and play it for us again.

By the end of "Fahrenheit 9/11," Moore has flung his own messy indictment at the presidential portrait, and it won't be easily cleaned up. The filmmaker is deliberately, methodically, overflowingly disrespectful at a moment in our history when there's far too much respect in the land. When the throne holds an ignorant, incompetent, profligate pretender, lese majeste becomes a patriotic duty.
