TOWP's Mission

There are no better measurable results, no greater authority, than the experiences and voices of the individual people that live in the environment - that was created based upon the decisions of governmental officials worldwide.

The politics that go into the decisions that affect our daily lives in developed nations as well as the promises and silent deals for the future of undeveloped nations is no longer just a part of it, but hold a very significant weight.

The Obama Administration's 2009 "pledge for transparency" was a solid idea. TOWP's mission is to create the opportunity for that transparency to mirrored back to our governments worldwide.

General McChrystal Out – General Petraeus In

Congrats Patraeus! Now I think we might just have a shot of serious impact! I agree with South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham -the switch of hands of Commanding Officer  in Afghanistan is the perfect time to reevaluate our strategy in AfPak and ’start over’. We all know we won’t ever ‘win’ this war – this isn’t even a war really anymore. This is just an endless... [Read more about this post ]

Clinton Is The Only One

No other president in the history of the United States went on to continue engaging in public service after their presidential term except Bill Clinton. This truly represents how much he enjoys this type of work. The love he has to help others – to give his time to make positive and lasting impacts in a variety of areas. To me, this is the finest example of a true public servant! From Governor... [Read more about this post ]

Obama Administration’s “Quick Fix” Strategic Plan

On whitehouse.gov you always see 4 featured stories with photos on the home page at the top. For the past week, “Wall Street Reform” dropped to the 4th picture & story. They normally go in order of occurance: Pic #1 reflects the most current happening, Picture/Story #4 is the least current update. This week, “Wall Street Reform” is miraculously back to Picture/Story #2. Why?... [Read more about this post ]

A Mosque at Ground Zero – NOT IN MY AMERICA!

If you are looking for a way to create an entire new level of absolute extreme hatred amongst the citizens of the USA against Muslim’s, then this is what you should build. And if you are looking for a way to significantly insult Americans – NYers especially – and all those individuals that lost people in the towers – that now are referred to as Ground Zero, than this is what... [Read more about this post ]

Not One Peep from the U.S. on Israeli Water Attack

This is shameful! Israeli soldiers wrongfully attacked a Turkish- backed aid flotilla en route to Gaza to provide supplies for the Palestinians. It’s been 2 days now, and still,  President Obama hasn’t said a word. Nothing even on the whitehouse.gov website. But they are sure to be posting all about the BP Oil Spill on that website. There are  2 separate blogs devoted to it today alone. What... [Read more about this post ]

Selective on Funerals Obama?

So you went and spoke at the West Virginia miner’s funeral to honor the 26 people that died in the mining explosion. So how come there wasn’t a mass funeral for the 11 that died in the BP Gulf Deep Water Horizon Explosion in April? Is 11 not enough to die for you to attend their funeral? To speak in their honor when they were working for America on one of our biggest natural resources in... [Read more about this post ]

Health Care Reform Achieved!

Congratulations President Barack Obama! Tuesday, March 23rd – Day you signed off on the Legislation Thursday, March 25th – House and Senate completed all the ‘fixes’ necessary. There is no better quote than the words you stated yourself: “This is what change looks like!” And you did this all within your first 1 1/2 years!  Read More →

Part of the Solution to Unemployment

Simple. Raise the age you can apply for government jobs. Currently for almost every government job in the US – including Coast Guard, Air Force, etc – it is 37. I think it’s time we update that a bit to reflect our population living longer lives and our willingness to work longer years (many work past 65 these days). There were 36,000 more job losses in February in the USA. The numbers... [Read more about this post ]

1/2 and 1/2

This morning, U.S. General Stanley McChrystal gave an apology to Afghanistan for the recent loss of 27 civilians in the NATO airstrike on Sunday – the Afghan government claiming the act “unjustifiable”. We just can’t win. We are either killing or apologizing. Why is America always apologizing to other nations for our actions when not ONE nation has apologized to the USA for... [Read more about this post ]

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let in Snow!

The Washington D.C. metro area  (Northern VA and MD) is just getting walluped with snow this winter! Unbelievable the amounts of accumulation! Almost a white Christmas, on Dec 19, ‘09, 16 inches fell on Reagan Airport in VA. February 6, 2010 snow storm – now dubbed “Snowmageddon” by President Obama  - gave Dulles International in VA a record breaking 32.4 inches. Tomorrow,... [Read more about this post ]
