The Failing Euro We are witnessing the end of Europe as we know it and the change may not be pleasant. Europe is now at a crossroads with two paths to consider, neither ending happily.

A correspondent for the Stars and Stripes newspaper, he finished the war at the side of General Dwight Eisenhower, covering, for the media, the future President as he and his staff negotiated the final surrender by Germany. Was this not the “war to end all wars?” But he had a brother, Eddie, who lived a very different war. An infantryman in the Fifth Armored Division, he was killed on December 11, 1944 at the age of 24 in a pl…
…you make a donation to this worthy cause. Among the screened films was a documentary entitled “About Face,” which was directed by Steve Karras. To me, the film is a masterpiece. It depicts a group of Jewish Refugees from both Germany and Austria that joined the American and British Armed Forces in WWII to fight against their native lands.

Though he lambasted his opponent Michael Dukakis, tarring him with the “Liberal” label, which Reaganism had turned into a dirty word, Bush himself was every bit a Progressive.

… 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.
