The Eye
by Russell G. Davis (centrist)
About The Author
I work as a Surveillance Operator for Northern Nevada Casinos.
I've been a borderline on the Nolan Chart for quite some time. Just on the edge of Liberalism and Libertarianism.
This last election I voted for Bob Barr. Voted Libertarian for the 1st time last fall.
I've seen throught the 2 party illusion and can not go back to believing it. What's best for this country is what matters most. It's the great Utilitarian Dream-the Greatest Good for the Greatest number of people.
About The Column
The Hand of the Eye
I see a lot of things. On TV. On the Net. In Life. In between the lines of what is said by friends of all political persuasions.
This is the place where I write about what I've seen. What I've seen happen, what I see going on and where I see it taking us.
We should implement Asimov's 3 laws to protect us from our inhuman creations-not robots but corporations.

The Citizen's United Supreme Court decision may unleash the legal equivalent of Brainiac and Ultron upon our country. We can thwart this by implementing the protections Issac Asimov recommended and applying them to these newly legal persons, the 3 laws of Robotics.
If Obama is a Socialist then the Pope is a Muslim!

There are similarities between what is going on now in the White House and what went on in past administrations that resemble what went on in Tolkien and Herbert’s novels. The dynamic of those elites close to a leader betraying the followers and creating a disaster is relevant to all of us right now, regardless of where we find ourselves on the Nolan Chart!
Wrapped Up Just In Time for Xmas,...The '09 Health Care Train Wreck!
Published: December 24, 2009
The "Pre-existing Condition" Con Job from Health Insurance companies is coming to an end. It's important to remember that we could have gotten so much more. And it's even more important to remember who thwarted it and to keep fighting after the ink is dry!
What the Twilight Zone and the Evolution of Rock reveal about our stagnant society
Published: December 5, 2009
I love Rock n Roll. However, I feel like that anthem of rebellion and coolness from a generation ago has mutated into something a lot like an episode of the Twilight Zone “No. 12 Looks Just Like You”. When everyone is cool, no one will be!
Elections do nothing to fumigate D.C. and rid us of our unelected pests.

The problem with our system is not who was voted in, but those whom are never subject to the forces of democracy! Those whom we do not vote for but affect our lives negatively anyway are the real domestic enemies of the Constitution.
An Open Response to Congressman Dean Heller's letter...for what it's worth
Published: November 6, 2009
I contacted my Congressman, Dean Heller, regarding the Health Care Reform Legislation I remember explaining that the point of view he was advocating was Pro-infant mortality, Pro-obscene Health Executive Compensation, and Pro-Emergency Room chaos. I received a response that I would love to share with the good reader, along with my rebuttal-
An Ideology Responsible for the Katrina Debacle Deserves No Second Chances!
Published: September 7, 2009
The response to Hurricane Katrina still matters and it is an act of moral cowardice to rationalize recent history for ideological reasons.
Alas, my favorite Anti-Theist supported a U.S. Holy War and potential descent into a Fascist Theocracy

One of my favorite writers is Christopher Hitchens. He is at the pinnacle of his career right now. Unfortunately, he's only still a fallible human and a glaring contradiction haunts his recent work.
We’re feeling the effect of treating mass Libel and Slander as protected Free Speech right at this moment.

My opinion on how the prospective return or permanent abolition of the Fairness Doctrine is being felt right now as birthers and paranoids are created by Right Wing Media

Took another look at Pinocchio... Adults lecturing children on self indulgence should look at their own political behavior.
