A Lesson for Jews


Yesterday, January 27 was Holocaust remembrance day, noted in ceremonies  worldwide, as it is now and should always be. To make the words "never again" that much more resonant, we must stay vigilant against prejudice to Jews and..by Jews; there's no other way.

60 Minutes, Be Brave!


I was very disappointed in the 60 minutes presentation of their segment on the health wagons last night. What these people do is obviously wonderful work but the've gotten uncharacteristically timid. By their own estimate  at least 40% of the governors in our country have denied these people potential life saving preemptive healthcare, so it would seem three questions to each of these unfortunate folks would be in order. Do you vote? Did you vote for the governor who denied you medical care? Finally, would you do it again? What I've always respected most about 60 Minutes is that they've been brave, please don't stop now.

Tough to argue with


Glenn Beck speaking for Ted Cruz says Donald Trump is dangerous. Donald Trump and Sarah Palin are calling Cruz two-faced.  Those folks are tough to argue with.

Donald Trump vs. Bill Clinton


When Bill Clinton was president, America was his shareholders and their portfolios (the stock market and their 401Ks) were up over 200%. We bet that Donald Trump's shareholders wish they did half as well.
