Reader's Corner

Take a look and see what our readers have to say about what you see here in TAP and use this as a chance to tell us or even to tell us off!

A Special Note
to our Readers

In light of the incidents of September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia and United Airlines Flight 93 in Pennsylvania, as well as others subsequent to that date involving some of our staff here at The American Partisan (TAP), we are posting on our cover page what has been TAP's long-standing policy about e-mails sent to anyone associated with our magazine. Please read it very carefully. While we enjoy humor as much as the next person, we are not joking on this matter of concern.

Letters threatening physical harm to american-partisan.com staffers will be forwarded to FBI Deputy Director Tom Pickard, who is heading the PENTTBOM investigation at the Special Information and Operation Center in Washington.

We remember with thanks and gratitude those participating in or supporting Operations "Enduring Freedom," "Infinite Justice," and "Noble Eagle."

	The State Of The Union (2 Years After 9-11) - In a debut column with TAP, former history teacher Jon Alvarez looks at the State of the Union two years after our national catastrophe and asks how life 9-11 has impacted life in America. See our newest contributor share his wisdom with us and with you in his first column that is destined to be a hit across the country! - by Jon Alvarez
	A 9-11 Memory Will Never Fade - In his latest, Bobby Eberle of GOPUSA shares with us his eyewitness account of seeing American Airlines Flight 77 fly into the Pentagon and explode into flames on that fateful September morning two years ago. - by Bobby Eberle, President and CEO, GOPUSA
	Should the United States “Learn to Lose this War on Terrorism?” - From her website, Mary says, "...The Patriot Act is not a secret document. It is available on the Internet for the entire world to read, and I recommend that everyone, but especially those who are prone to believe the drumbeat of accusations about the Patriot Act to read it. (Click here READ the Patriot Act.) It’s only 131 pages long, which is a mere 15% of the number of pages America’s children, many as young as 10 years of age, have been reading in the latest Harry Potter book..." - by Mary Mostert, Publisher, Banner of Liberty
	The Enemy's Game Plan - "Michael Douglas and Sean Penn, either wittingly or unwittingly, revealed the enemy's 50-year-long game plane in a film aptly entitled The Game. It should be obligatory viewing in every capitol of what's left of Free World Intelligence, from Langley Field to MI6 in London." See Michael's analysis of this timely and well-written film and the dangers it poses for a post 9-11 America in his latest column! - by Michael Moriarty
	Our Greatest Test - "Old, sophisticated nations of Europe - peoples who have been protected by the good will of American power - have convinced themselves that their system of socialism and of self-importance should make them growing, flourishing and happy, although they are anything but that. Our happiness, according to those who worship the pagan idol of Covetousness, is the cause of their misery. That is the reason why America, which has defended what is right in the world because it is right, finds almost no one willing to defend America when it is right because it is right. Stated bluntly, most of the world wants evil to triumph. Americans are viewed the same way that Southern bigots used to view enterprising black people: we have become "uppity." - by Bruce Walker
	Bush is a neoconservative - "It's a positive sign when conservative commentators rush to defend President Bush from being defiled by the neoconservative label. The tag, thankfully, is becoming a pejorative." - Read Ilana's assessment on how the Bush administration's domestic and foreign policy bear the birthmarks – nay, the pockmarks – of neoconservatism in her latest WorldNetDaily exclusive commentary! - by Ilana Mercer
	Dog Worship and SARS - In a follow-up to previous articles on the issues of dogs and SARS, Carole is now vindicated on the issue linking dogs to SARS based on reports circulated in the mainstream media as recently as last week. - by Carole Wade
	The Tyranny of Paper Money - From his latest edition of "Texas Straight Talk": "In an article entitled “Gold and Economic Freedom,” Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan wrote that “The excess credit which the Fed pumped into the economy spilled over into the stock market- triggering a fantastic speculative boom…The speculative imbalances had become overwhelming and unmanageable by the Fed… In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation.” The irony is that Mr. Greenspan’s words, written in 1966 to describe the era leading up to the Great Depression, could easily have been written in 2003 to describe the consequences of his own Fed policies during the 1990s." See how Mr. Greenspan's words have come back to bite him on the nose as the tyranny of paper money puts all the power for the many in the hands of the few in the Congressman's latest.
