Martin Luther King, Jr and the American presidency
“We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.” – Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The following was originally posted in 2013, when most Americans would have laughed at the idea of a Donald Trump presidency and even Republicans would have been horrified by the events that took place in our nation’s...

Melania Trump, like the rest of us, never understood the meaning of #bebest

Melania Trump, like the rest of us, never understood the meaning of #bebest
One thing that can be said about Melania, perhaps the only generous thing that can be said is that she was a First Lady like no other.

Eleven presidential campaigns with no one crying about rigged elections. Then came Trump

Eleven presidential campaigns with no one crying about rigged elections. Then came Trump
I cast my first presidential ballot for George McGovern in 1972.  Not an actual McGovern fan, it was more of an anti-war, anti-Nixon vote. The war in Vietnam needed to end, as did the presidency of Richard Nixon. I’ve voted for winners and I’ve voted for losers.  Never did I think that the only fair outcome... Read more »

To lock him up or not to lock him up, that is the question for Joe and Mika

To lock him up or not to lock him up, that is the question for Joe and Mika
Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski are two of MSNBC’s Morning Joe co-hosts. They recently called out fans at Game 5 of the World Series as well as Twitterers (tweeters?) who lauded those fans. When the visage of Donald Trump, watching the game from a luxury suite at Nationals Park in Washington, DC, appeared on the... Read more »

Brothers and Sisters of the Resistance, Melania Trump is not the Enemy

Brothers and Sisters of the Resistance, Melania Trump is not the Enemy
Melania Trump has drawn the ire of the Liberal universe in a way that is totally disproportionate with anything that you can possibly accuse her of doing. The name calling is shameful and embarrassing. Michelle Obama is one the most beloved first ladies since Jackie Kennedy.  She’s smart, articulate and passionate in her beliefs and... Read more »
