  • Not an utterly pointless fight

    Webb's shouldn't have been concerned about hurting Jr's feelings. His concern was for his child and his disdain for an idiot war (chief) is valid and founded. Obama and the Demos need a few more with a Webb-like background in order to add some gravitas to a light party. We could stand to learn a few leasons about not letting stupid people push ...

  • Why Hillary (not Gloria)....a Young(er) Woman's Perspective

    In recent days a steady stream of women have celebrated and lauded Gloria Steinem's recent piece in the NYT. Many encourage others to circulate the piece further. Respectfully, I disagree. Ms. Steinem's piece, though well intentioned I'm sure, pits the women's movement against the civil rights movement. Such false competition is divisive, ...
