… of these circumstances, the use of the word hero is trivialized. A deeper problem is that ides of myth, legend and story hold a society’s culture together. The concept of the hero is central to these. By misapplying the hero label and refraining from using it when needed takes our culture in the wrong direction. I hope we can recover the sense of propriety about who we call a hero and what they did to be considered brave before it’s too late. A …
…of the Obama Coalition”, Thomas Edsall, by pushing “takers” into a non-working, entitlement, nanny state, socialistic philosophical ideology. Republicanism is not lost but it is certainly a candidate for a “Progressive Lite” label….or what as “Congress is Useless” all about? http://www.hollywoodrepublican.net/2011/11/congress-is-useless/ And all that is supported in academia today is under the myth of “academic freedom”.

…llywood celebrities. All for the grand cost of approximately five dollars a ticket. (By the way, if you won, your trip to the event was all expenses paid. I guess the poor sot who won better be able to pay his taxes on the cash equivalent of the prize because it would be considered taxable income). Think about this for a minute.

The lack of clarity in the courts encourages companies to start making cash payouts, which beget more complaints from frauds looking for a piece of the pie.

They are being lured by small amounts of cash from Thaksin into the city for the sole purpose of causing disturbances. Before the last two days, the protests were relatively peaceful. Since then, they have become violent. Today, two people were killed and many more…
It has been almost two weeks since I have had a chance to write and a lot of things have happened in that time. Most of them evolve around the health care mess that may be the beginning of Obama’s fall from grace. It seems with each passing day that the “City on a Hill” which has been Obama is beginning to become the slums of Chicago which is where he began his political career. But, to begin with, I have to do something that I never thought I w…
Here is an article written by Ira about the Nobel Peace Prize as I promised yesterday. Hopefully, this will be the last we hear of this debacle. I hope you enjoy.
