I needed two visits to the recently closed exhibition, “Pollock Matters,” at the Everson Museum of Art in Syracuse, New York, to finally reconcile my feelings toward one of the 20th century’s most original artists. 

Senator Barack Obama's tough talk is necessary, but Rev. Jesse Jackson's concerns are also important. While Obama is advocating for a more perfect union, Rev. Jackson is asking for a more perfect justice system. After all, a union can't be perfect without an underlying perfect association.

I watched the HBO miniseries on John Adams during the fourth of July weekend. The miniseries is based on the book by David McCullough on the second President of the United States. The movie portrays a somewhat vain fellow who was not a very skilled diplomat and detested the notion of compromise.

In a previous post, I discussed Obama's positions on key economic issues. In this post, I will compare and contrast the two candidates on those same economic issues. After reviewing these issues, I am confident that you will conclude that Barack Obama is a friend of working people while John McCain is a friend of big business and the wealthy elite.

From watching national news I understand three things very well. McCain wanted the surge. Obama did not want the surge. The surge decreased violence.

Good Lord, I am over it. I understand, the American people understand.
