    Congressman Vance McAllister should have not been kissing one of his staffers since he is a married man.

    Throughout the years, the United States has experienced the reigns of many of presidents. Some of these presidents having the admiration of the public for being one of the best presidents, and some just have the scum left on the floor. In my opinion one of the best presidents we have had up to date was Lyndon B. Johnson for his hardy attitude, and having the knowledge to comprehend what he can and cannot do. The worst president goes to Bill Clinton for his wishy-washy, hardheaded decision-making, and for risking national security for personal affairs.…

    Nobel Prize-winning economist and Op-Ed Columnist for The New York Times Paul Krugman proudly identifies as a liberal and makes no attempt to remain nonpartisan. His columns are nearly always filled with inflammatory remarks and numerous invectives hurled towards the right-wing, “know-nothing” conservatives. Krugman’s candidness in describing the pitfalls of conservative views regarding the economy, as well as public policy, garners a base of likeminded, staunch liberals who find his columns insightful and congruent to their own predispositions. His liberal readers are compelled by his provocative, frank writing to be politically active on the matters that he is passionate about.…

    In “Redeeming America: The Narrative Constitution of American Citizenship in Collective Memory,” Shoon Lio explores the constant revision of history utilized by Americans to position movements and events as redemption narratives of society. While not exclusive to Americans, collective action groups aim to define the talking points of historical events, shifting public perception to favor ulterior motives by shining the talking points as parables. Ch.2, “Whose Collective Memories? The Social Construction of Moral Boundaries and Social Problem Claims,” examines how the memories of these revisions are exploited as evidence to justify acts of war, violence, and social engineering. These acts by groups are to help further cause for wars, combat violence, and position perceived past moral failings to teach future generations of previous “ills” of society like the counterculture and the Great Society movements and measures in the 1960’s that Conservative members criticized.…
