Scars and Stripes: The Boston Bombing Unfurled

    Boston has always maintained a sense of autonomy. Annexed by America’s epic battles for self-governance, the city remains an industriousness co-mingling of old and new world identity. Gem of the sea Irish pride still pervades Southie, while Dorchester, as distant from rice fields wide enough for a flock of storks to spread their wings across, is home to a new generation of Vietnamese émigrés.

    The Last Word on Dithering

    Early into his presidency, the Beltway buzzword describing Barack Obama’s protocol of protracted reaction was dithering. Dick Cheney went one better, terming it waffling as Obama’s dawdling response to the role of American troops in Afghanistan facing an emboldened enemy. In Obama’s Keystone XL Dithering, US News and World Report columnist Mort Zuckerman wrote of the economic cost of non-implementing a transformative link to American | Read More »

    Big Trouble in Calamitous Cairo: Ginsburg’s Egyptian Odyssey

    Equally as loathsome when actor and malcontent Sean Penn criticizes America while praising the Arab Spring, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg disparaging the US Constitution rivals treason. Ginsburg’s ACLU convictions shadow her in old age. Conjoined in mindset with Barack Obama, both believe the Constitution is an outdated allegory, no longer sufficient as a guiding vehicle to the norms of contemporary society. Like a | Read More »

    Signed, Sealed, Undelivered

    Flawed as a presidential candidate, Rick Perry’s hunger to debate the man he called “the smooth politician in the White House right now,” will have to wait now until,  maybe never. What a showdown it might have been. On the topic of border security, Barack Obama would have fired blanks. The barrel of Perry’s Kimber 1911 would still be smoking after contesting Obama’s March 2011 | Read More »

    Retreading Teddy: Obama in Osawatomie

    Whacked from so many gigs in States he can’t remember the names of, Barack Obama’s running low on original material. Then again, Teddy Roosevelt is a tough act to follow. Nowadays, Obama infers Lincolnesque-style passion into his empty, collective agenda. Or, the other day in Osawatomie, Kansas, Obama retreaded the modus operandi and static from Roosevelt’s New Nationalism speech; one given 101 years ago in | Read More »

    A Convenient Amnesty

    After being booked, most felons want to speak to a lawyer. Not this cat. Two decades of falsely assimilating into the American milieu entitled Onyango Obama a call to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue to make bail. Or so he thought. Framingham police weren’t as accommodating. Obama’s pleading not guilty to driving under the influence was hardly unexpected for someone who’d been flying under the radar since | Read More »

    Post-Obama: Restoration of a Nation

    Sifting through the rubble of weakened nationalism, remnants from the steep learning curve of a dogmatic, bereft-of-centricity ideologue are the harsh reality the next President of the United States inherits as part of rebuilding all that’s been compromised in the disquieting four years of Barack Obama. Developing America’s natural energy resources, tapping into the most innovative minds and cognizance leading to job creation will be unharnessed. | Read More »
