  • Obama’s Challenges in the Campaign’s Final Days, from A to Z

    The video. This is a radically different version of my earlier video, for which I forgot to put in a disclaimer that I was not buying into the criticisms, but merely listing them. The same goes for this one, although it is more upbeat in tone. Here is the script: “A” is for [A]CORN, a group which gets out the vote. Right-Wingers have (falsely) ...

  • Straight Talk About Israel

    Mr Rosner does really invoke TRUTH regarding Israeli US relations. Instead, he calls for downplaying them. Why? Might it be that Rosner does not want the truth about Israeli US relations to be revealed? After 1948, Israel was an modern independent nation with its own foreign policy agenda which included expansion and inclusion of the ancient ...

  • Barack Obama's Campaign Difficulties, from A to Z

    A is for ''an Academic'', is he too much of one? And does this mean he's unable to have down-home fun? B is for ''too Black or not black enough,'' is he the former or the latter, and If we've transcended race, does it really matter? C is for ''dealing with Hillary Clinton'', now there's a sticky wicket! Can he assuage her supporters without ...

  • Liberal Media Lies

    Political logic augurs a Democratic triumph in looming US elections but Barack Obama’s White House duel with John McCain is still a statistical tie, prompting some to wonder why he is yet to break away. Political logic augurs a democratic triumph? Augur: To predict, especially from signs or omens; foretell. What signs or omens are they looking ...

  • McCain's Unhappy Warrior

    This piece says one smart thing and one stupid thing. Yes, the gas price ad was dumb, as the writer recognizes. But on this point he was dead wrong: his Surge attack was dumb too, and hence the writer's statement is dumb, because it buys into the fallacious arguments that: 1) The Surge is working, because it lowered our troops' death rate in ...
