What you are about to read is essentially five independent examinations of Event 39, a star-studded gala created to not only as a thank you send-off for President Bill Clinton in the last days of his presidency but to also serve as a potent fundraiser for Hillary Clinton’s 2000 senatorial campaign. Each analysis was done independently and views the event from a different perspective, thus creating a 180 degree look at the facts. After reading the five independent analyses that comprise this book it will be abundantly clear that Event 39 was the catalyst and the vehicle for the single ...

Anyone who observes the skyrocketing number of incendiary political opinion shows on television and radio might conclude that political vitriol on the airwaves is fueled by the increasingly partisan American political system. But in The Outrage Industry Jeffrey M. Berry and Sarah Sobieraj show how the proliferation of outrage says more about regulatory, technological, and cultural changes, than it does about our political inclinations.

The golden key to understanding the last 75 years of American political development, the eminent labor-relations scholar Michael Goldfield argues, lies in the contests between labor and capital in the American South during the 1930s and 1940s. Labor agitation and unionization efforts in the South in the New Deal era were extensive and bitterly fought and ranged across all of the major industries of the region. Goldfield shows how the broad-based failure to organize the South during this period made it what it is today.

Politics in America are polarized and trivialized, perhaps as never before. In Congress, the media, and academic debate, opponents from right and left, the Red and the Blue, struggle against one another as if politics were contact sports played to the shouts of cheerleaders. The result, Ronald Dworkin writes, is a deeply depressing political culture, as ill equipped for the perennial challenge of achieving social justice as for the emerging threats of terrorism. Can the hope for change be realized?

In this original, far-reaching, and timely book, Justice Stephen Breyer examines the work of SCOTUS in an increasingly interconnected world, a world in which all sorts of public and private activity - from the conduct of national security policy to the conduct of international trade - obliges the Court to consider and understand circumstances beyond America's borders. At a time when ordinary citizens may book international lodging directly through online sites, it has become clear that judicial awareness can no longer stop at the water's edge.

Parents of the children, be it adopted, fostered or just caretaker,were kept alive to raise the now gifted children. Regardless though, the adults must obey and worship Lucifer himself, or be executed. Adults could not have angry or unclean thoughts of Lucifer or the children would hear and point them out to the crowds. There was unmerciful punishment for those kinds of thoughts.
