I must be getting old. Everything pisses me off. For the last ten years, or so, I’ve called myself a Pelosi-Obama Democrat. But, if truth be known, I’ve never registered in either party. I’m far more motivated by what I don’t like in world affairs than what I do like. I’m not the only one

The USA is being played by President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine. Mr. Zelensky will be referred to hereinafter as “Shirt” mainly because he wants to be the star of the all groups a la Mao or Che…action heroes. Some more than others. C’mon Shirt. Lighten up. Good thing Nancy isn’t President, she’s send him home

Let’s have fun. Truth be known I’m a little behind the curve on some stuff like War, Peace and the Economy. I’m willing to bet we’ve got a little of each. I’m going to make a list of people I like at least a bit at some time in their life. If a particular name

Maybe Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi made Zelensky an offer he couldn’t refuse. Like, for instance, an opportunity to speak to a Joint Meeting of the Congress. Nancy has sole control of the House Floor until January 3, 2023. Time was of the essence. She’s not going to give that away. Please. Nancy Pelosi didn’t

I’ve been fascinated with politics since I saw Jack Kennedy’s limousine pull up the back ramp of the Boston Garden Election Eve 1960. By sheer luck, I was given an opportunity to work as an intern in the US Senate in 1963. Later, as a lawyer, I testified a few times before Congressional Committees. I’ve

Ron DeSantis, Governor of Florida is now “The Man” in the Republican Party. He won very big in a very big state. The man has political skills and the inside track to be the Republican Nominee in 2024. Nancy Pelosi held the line in what very well could have been a “wave election.” She got

I started this piece before hearing the news of a violent attack on the Pelosi family home in San Francisco where Nancy’s husband, Paul Pelosi, was seriously injured. So, this is a more serious, less flippant redo. I watched the new MSNBC host, Alex Wagner, for the first time the other night. She had a

Last Sunday, Dana Bash of CNN, narrated a one-hour program on the rise of Anti Semitism in the USA. I watched it all. In my opinion, it was very deeply unimpressive. In other words it was pretentious and mediocre. The fatal flaw of the Special was that it didn’t contain an ounce of self-examination or

The Israelis, who have a few hundred nuclear weapons, are coming to the USA, which has several thousand nuclear weapons. Israel’s new leaders want to talk to us about doing something about Iran that doesn’t have any nuclear weapons but, according to the Israelis, constitutes the greatest threat to peace in the World today. The

It has been brought to my attention that there is an “inconsistency” in how I treat various political actors. How can anyone who describes themself as an Obama-Pelosi Democrat, have anything good to say about Ronald Reagan or Lindsey Graham? Easy. Nobody’s perfectly good or bad. Sometimes people on the “other side” come up big
