I follow Gallup Polling because they make it fairly easy to compare how a sitting President, Joe Biden, is doing, when compared to former presidents at different points in their presidencies. Take a President like Barack Obama. He served two terms and just touched a Gallup job approval rating of 38% for a couple of

STILL CATHOLIC DESPITE THE (NEW YORK) TIMES
Yeah, I’m Catholic. Not the best in the world. Maybe not even in the top ten. I may get there though. The snark, ridicule and contempt shown by columnists and online commenters at the New York Times and Washington Post on everything and anything Catholic has been getting my Irish up and is causing me
IN DEFENSE OF INCONSISTENCY
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
BANNON!
I’ve always liked Steve Bannon. We’ve got a bit in common. We’re both mostly Irish and mostly, Catholic. Bannon went to high school with Benedictine Catholic Monks in Richmond, VA. I attended most of the Jesuit Colleges on the East Coast graduating from one of them. Bannon was elected President of the Student Body at
RACHEL MADDOW: CONTRARY INDICATOR
Rachel Maddow, who was unwilling to mention the name of the late Sheldon Adelson during his lifetime, is excited about a non case involving a second echelon actor doing next to nothing with a slightly unimportant country that has oil, an airline and tee shirts. The guy is Tom Barrack. Nice guy, Christian, Lebanese descent,
RACHEL MADDOW SHOULD RESIGN
Rachel Maddow is a “Company Girl.” The “Company” is Comcast. Its controlling shareholder and CEO is Brian Roberts. Comcast owns MSNBC and decides who, and what goes on their television stations. Mr. Roberts is Jewish. He is a frequent traveler to Israel and friend of Benjamin Netanyahu. Mr. Roberts does not want to see or
MADDOW: COMING UP EMPTY
On Tuesday May 11, 2021, Rachel Maddow had two challenging news stories on her plate for her 9PM Show. When she went on the Air, Israeli bombing had already killed 35 Residents of Gaza and Hamas missiles, fired from Gaza, had killed three Israelis. Additionally, the previous evening, Tucker Carlson, on FOX, trashed Anthony Fauci,
THE ORIGINS OF OUR POLITICAL PREFERENCES: PART I
Like most people, my dislikes are bigger drivers of my political preferences than my likes. Hate is a stronger motivator than love. Its a fact. Hate energizes. Love pacifies. I like and admire Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama. They are, and have been, strong figures on the national stage, who have stood the test of
NANCY PELOSI: PERSON OF THE YEAR
Nancy Pelosi is not wracked by doubt. She knows who she is…Italian, Catholic, Democrat…and exactly where she’s going…forward, to help her own and those less fortunate. That’s what God wants and what Democrats do. Simple. She caught a huge break in the DNA Lottery being born into the family of Annunciata and Thomas D’Alesandro Jr. in
LICENSE TO KILL
With fifty days left under the protective umbrella of the TRUMP-ADELSON ADMINISTRATION, Israel executed Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, 62, an Iranian scientist who had committed the offense of knowing almost as much about nuclear energy as several dozen of Israel’s Nuclear Scientists. The house trained pets posing as American Liberal Cable TV hosts took it all in
