… 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…
…Mets’ first World Series Championship: The year that those of us who are Mets’ fans will never forget. The Mets won the World Series again in 1986, but it did not have the emotion and impact of 1969. 1986 was not the year of Tommie Agee, Cleon Jones, Don Clendenon, Bud Harrelson, Jerry Koosman and one of the greatest pitchers of all time Tom Seaver. It was a dream come true as a New Yorker for former Brooklyn Dodger first baseman Gil Hodges to l…
Andy Stern and the SEIU This is a potpourri of ideas while I prepare a major thesis for readers on building a new conservative majority to counter Obama’s strategy for 2012. The first idea deals with Andy Stern’s love affair with the Chinese model, which shows an increasing lack of support for Democratic procedure by the left.

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”. Collectivism and totalit…
…he salivating and salacious press was so pre-occupied with vague allegations of sexual harassment directed at Herman Cain. Given the choice of sensationalizing non-stories to create caricatures, they chose the oversexed Uncle Tom over the hard-drinking Texas cowboy. Someone must have done a focus group and determined that “belly up to the bar, boys,” resonated less with independents than “lock up the women folk!” It’s all a big yawn, except that …
…has not been charged in the case, Pennsylvania state police commissioner Frank Noonan suggested there was a “moral responsibility” to contact police about potential sexual abuse involving children.

…f verified, would once again make it look like the board acted hastily. If MQueary had already talked to the police – it’s a game changer in terms of JoePa’s culpability. UPDATE: State College police chief Tom King has just been quoted as saying that Mike McQueary did not report his allegations of child sexual abuse gainst Jerry Sandusky to the State College police department. …
