THEY WRITE, SO I DON'T HAVE TO
Jay Nordlinger -- INAUGURAL OBAMASPASMS Stream-of-consciousness reflections on the address which was a heap of blanc-mange with a soupçon of cheap shots
Michael Coren -- YANKS VOTE FOR DOOM Barack Fools Us [This article was written on November 8 but seems to have sprung to national attention just yesterday, mis-attributed to the some unknown person at the London Daily Mail, where you will NOT find it.]
National Catholic Reporter -- WOMEN'S HEALTH MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE PRESIDENT'S Mr. Obama will Executively Order more abortions, batch #1 (further batches to come)
I broke into the blogosphere in 2003, via a letter to andrew sullivan (made me a minor celebrity in my family for a week) Call it my bio: My grandfather came to the US from Greece around 1905, alone, age 10, sailing into New York Harbor and entering at Ellis Island, like the young Vito Corleone in The Godfather. Before settling down he spent a couple of his teen-age years "hobo-ing" around the country. He insisted to me that a hobo is not a bum. He looks for honest work to earn his food and a place to sleep - he is NOT looking for a hand-out... When you (Sullivan) used the word "hobo" to describe Saddam Hussein in his spider hole, I thought "Saddam should be so lucky as to be a hobo--he could wish for so much dignity." My grandfather finished third grade, and spent his life as a railroad mechanic. He raised four sons, three of them old enough for WWII. The four earned two M.A.'s and two Ph.D.'s, and produced 15 accomplished grandchildren. Among the many great-grandchildren are two Naval officers and a Marine Corps Captain...the legacy of a hobo. Saddam, master of the palaces and father of the lion-cubs, is just a bum.
