The Great Debate
In two days, Biden and Trump will debate. Here’s my expectation of what will happen: Moderator: Presidents Biden and Trump, we thank you for being here. Trump: LIAR! Moderator: Excuse me, President Trump? I was just thanking you . . . Trump: Doesn’t matter. You’re a liar. What I mean is I don’t know who … Continue reading The Great Debate
Hold Your Whoopee
As I write this, the Supremes today decided the Rahimi case in a way that restricts gun rights. There are many who will greet this decision with a loud and boisterous “Whoopee. We finally won one!” Well, hold your Whoopee, fellas. It ain’t that good. As the old saying goes, there are times when you … Continue reading Hold Your Whoopee

This is how some of it goes: We marched and sang, and we screamed out loud, We were sure about our fight, We wore signs … Continue reading Get Off My (College) Lawn
They Are All Around Us
Today came the most shocking of news. Had I been told that my children were not really mine, I could not have been more surprised and disappointed. At first, I refused to believe it, but then the reports kept coming in - all repeating the same, sad refrain. Yes, it was true. After months together, the … Continue reading They Are All Around Us
Money, Money, Money Part II
In my last blog, I whined about the destructive and outsized impact that money has on how we are now governed. Like all whiners, I make up more problems to whine about than I have solutions for.

It’s Number One – It’s Number One

What matters most to the leaders of our government is how much money they can raise, who will give it to them and what they will give it to them for. … Continue reading It’s Number One – It’s Number One
