Packers Talented Defense Turns Season Around: Control Playoff Destiny

Dec 18, 2009
Lots of people are talking about Charles Woodson as defensive player of the year, but we said it before the season started! We also predicted a 10-6 or 11-5 playoff season for the Packers--and that looks right on, too. I have to say having that post...

Do Elite Progressives Really Get the Issue of Health Insurance Reform?

Dec 18, 2009
I remember 1993, so does Bill Clinton. Bill and Hillary refused to back a compromise bill that would have been a major step in the right direction. If it had passed then, we might be back today--expanding a successful reform program. Instead, we've had...

  I searched for a Good Andrew Greeley site and I found this blog. Thank you Father! We need more of this kind of sensible thinking...Chesterson would have been proud of this blog!

Peace. Nina
