Posted on April 29, 2008 by Mr. Charles Decker
The “Talk of the Town” section in this week’s New Yorker paints a very complicated portrait of the former President, his role in his wife’s campaign, and his feelings on the likely heir to his throne. The piece, by Ryan Lizza, is even-handed and well worth a read. It outlines the standard media portrayal of [...]

Ice Free Summer at the North Pole THIS YEAR?
Posted on April 28, 2008 by Mr. Charles Decker
After the mythical Northwest Passage between Alaska and Greenland was opened for the first time in recorded history late last summer, it became clear as day that an ice-free summer in the Arctic Circle was only a matter of time. Still, few were prepared for that monumental change to happen this year. That’s exactly what [...]

What dead politicans are we facing?
Posted on April 24, 2008 by jrobins2
For a new type of politician, Barack Obama has been just about every politician imaginable. He was JFK, he was the left’s Reagan, he was Abraham Lincoln! (though only to the very delusional, aka, the blogosphere) Now that he’s “fallen to earth”, as David Brooks put it, he’s every Democratic loser: John Kerry, Mondale, Adlai [...]

I saw an interesting sign today. I thought it made a good point. It said:

Obama gets most critical endorsement yet
Posted on April 16, 2008 by Mr. Charles Decker
And it speaks for itself:
Dear Friends and Fans:
Like most of you, I’ve been following the campaign and I have now seen and heard enough to know where I stand. Senator Obama, in my view, is head and shoulders above the rest.
He has the depth, the reflectiveness, and the resilience to be our next President. He [...]

Hillary gets her gaffe.
Posted on April 12, 2008 by jrobins2
Oh hells no. Really, Obama? Could you have gift wrapped it more? Prepare yourself, Dems, if this quote gains steam (and really, how could it not?) this could get ugly. I don’t mean to say Clinton shouldn’t comment on this, I mean really, I’m an Obama supporter, and I cringed. A lot. I grew up [...]

Posted on April 7, 2008 by Dan Leigh

In some places, the level of discourse has been reduced to squabbling, and I see a trend of arguments getting more and more vicious. So, I’d like to take a moment to stop, breathe, and [...]
