Kamala Harris, Dave Matthews, and the truth about our binary choice in Gaza

Rather than believing this is an existential conflict that requires a clear winner on either side, she claimed it is not, in fact, a “binary” issue.  The thousands of protesters in DC a day earlier, including musician Dave Matthews, would beg to disagree. Last week, Vice President Kamala Harris addressed the ongoing war in Gaza… Continue reading Kamala Harris, Dave Matthews, and the truth about our binary choice in Gaza

Trump and the convention speech only he could give

Like a kaleidoscope that is constantly shifting, you see everything if you are a fan and nothing if you are a foe.  To say he did it his way, is an underestimate for the ages.  It’s better to say, he did it the only way he knows how, and perhaps the way no one else… Continue reading Trump and the convention speech only he could give

JD Vance and the Republicans’ ideological revolution

The new Republican Party seeks to shift the balance of our interests shifts from abstract American ideals to the practical impact on every day Americans, America as a country like any other, with her own interests, rather than as some easily manipulated metaphor for democracy or human progress.  The same way we can rarely tell… Continue reading JD Vance and the Republicans’ ideological revolution

Biden’s awful interview with Time Magazine and the media’s desperate attempt to resuscitate a dying Presidency

The media will try, but you cannot reconcile a “man who has lived history,” “one of advancing age and broad experience” who can only converse in a “sometimes scattershot way.”  A President with a “stiff gait, muffled voice, and fitful syntax” that holds “fast to a vision that has reigned since World War II, in… Continue reading Biden’s awful interview with Time Magazine and the media’s desperate attempt to resuscitate a dying Presidency

No, Jerry Seinfeld isn’t controversial and the media shouldn’t be pretending otherwise

Mr. Seinfeld becomes living proof that everything and anything needs to be constantly reevaluated according to our ever changing standards of moral decency, and anyone who expresses an opinion of any kind even remotely at odds with those standards will find themselves facing either cancellation criticism or forced irrelevance.  At the risk of stating the… Continue reading No, Jerry Seinfeld isn’t controversial and the media shouldn’t be pretending otherwise

Occupied Academia: Today’s wanna-be activists have a lot to learn about the 1960s and should have a lot more respect for their fellow students

It is no exaggeration to say that if one of these wanna-be protesters was transported back in time, they would run screaming for the present in less than five minutes, seeking whatever safe space they could find because there were none back then.  As anti-Israel if not outright antisemitic protests sweep major college campuses, the… Continue reading Occupied Academia: Today’s wanna-be activists have a lot to learn about the 1960s and should have a lot more respect for their fellow students

Biden’s foreign policy, just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse

Iran and Israel have crossed two previous red lines in less than seven days by launching direct attacks at each other for the first time, even after President Biden issued his infamous “don’t.”  Somehow, this is being positioned as a victory for diplomacy. Decades from now, assuming humanity survives that long, there is little doubt… Continue reading Biden’s foreign policy, just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse

Pro-Palestinian protestors are the real story of “Genocide Joe’s” Presidential Campaign so far

What are the odds that a man who regularly slurs his words and whose ability to stand trial was questioned by his own Justice Department doesn’t lash out and create a potential viral spectacle after being repeatedly confronted by members of his own party in outright rebellion? Last week, President Biden held a glitzy fundraiser… Continue reading Pro-Palestinian protestors are the real story of “Genocide Joe’s” Presidential Campaign so far

Israel: The stain of abstaining at the UN pleases no one

If the President thinks this is a genocide, say it and demand a change in course.  If he thinks it’s a just war, but he has a better idea how to fight it, say it. Voting present simply isn’t an option anymore. Earlier this week, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution calling for… Continue reading Israel: The stain of abstaining at the UN pleases no one

The Oscars are an embarrassment for an industry that prides itself on creativity and showmanship

It doesn’t take a genius to figure out that a show about movies should offer what you haven’t seen before, leaving you with a little of the magic in your own home, rather than scratching your head wondering what they pay these people so much more money for in the first place. Hollywood is supposed… Continue reading The Oscars are an embarrassment for an industry that prides itself on creativity and showmanship
