Last Saturday night, in what was mostly a procedural vote, the Senate approved moving forward with debate on the health care reform bill. The vote was 60-39, the barest minimum necessary for debate to start in the Chamber. To listen to Harry Reid and his cohorts after the vote, you would think the Senate had just accomplished the greatest feat since the creation of man. What they really did was nothing . . . . . yet. (I’m sorry, maybe they did d…

… seemed on the superficial level to offer continuity, it was actually an ideological reversal, back to the Liberal wing of the Republican Party. 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. His admitted trouble with “the vision thing” prevented him from continuing with Reagan’s unfinished work: shrinking government, e…

…ar. That is a bad thing for the country, but a good thing for the Republican Party. When you factor in the approval rating of Congress or should I say its 68% percent disapproval rating; the universal dislike of Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and Chris Dodd; and, the insistence on passing a health care bill even though almost 70% of the country do not want it, things do not look too rosy for the Democratic Party in 2010. In the past few days, it has b…

The brilliant Peter Ustinov portrays the effete villain. Dirty Harry, 1971. Dirty Harry corners Scorpio. A punk makes his day. Those are some of my favorites. What are yours? …

…s not interested in the federal deficit and doesn’t pay much attention to how much the United States spends on interest rates in order to borrow a dollar. He didn’t have much to say about the unethical behavior of Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi or dozens of others in Congress. No, Angelo is concerned about the rising cost of his own health insurance and how it has impacted his paycheck. I can’t blame him, but here’s the point: …

…genda passed into law, including bankrupting the American government. In fact, some of the pundits are beginning to call him “Comrade Obama.” Another wonderful earmark that was in the spending bill is a pet project of Senator Harry Reid: A beautiful museum for his home state of Nevada. I don’t care what kind of museum it is, the federal government should not be paying for it. But do not tell Harry Reid that. It is something he really wants. Maybe…

…emocratic members of Congress are currently walking around the country attending town hall meetings with their constituents and are holding scripted material with speaking points probably written by the DNC or Nancy Pelosi or Harry Reid on how to react to the brewing storm over the evil and hated health care “destruction” bill. The Democratic propaganda machine has gone so far as to say that Fox News and Radical Right Wing Political Groups are pl…

…g, even miraculous. It pushes aside, for a moment in time, the ugly politics of ideology and grabs our undivided attention for the Darwin motive of survival. Bush, Rumsfeld and Cheney can be viewed through the Truman prism. Harry S Truman President Harry S Truman, honorable, honest, not a close friend, a confidant of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Truman kept in the dark about the atomic bomb, “Truman, who had not known of it beforehand, was briefe…

… 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 …
