The American Character

Often asked in the dark, Americans wonder if the immigration waves we all know are on the way, absent protective legislation, will come from South Americans or The Chinese. When asked about preference, to an American, all choose South Americans.  After all, they are Americans, albeit not us.  With the similar culture and religions it [...]

The Brooklyn New York Times Out Loud – Argument and Literature with Jonny Gowanus

The Brooklyn New York Times Out Loud with Jonny Gowanus provides a unique mix of Argument and Literature. The argument stems from current events, as well as those political legal, philosophical and religious topics your momma told you to steer clear of at cocktail parties. The literature is original poetry, stories, drama, music and moving [...]

Willing & Loosing

Death be not proud, Death be a shroud. It will come with certainty, It will come sleepily, If you are one cast of vision Distinguishing the view from prison. Life gives time To consider earnestly Which path to walk all gingerly Some race, some trace But wisdom is pace, and position. For there you are [...]

My Obama Homily

I just heard a rap pointing out Bill O’Reilley’s hypocrisy as justification for being hypocritical in the death penalty value. I wonder why someone with such intelligence would become their enemy in order to extinguish their enemy. Then I thought of America. We may not realize it, but we are to many the Bill O’Reilley [...]

TRICKLE-OUT: Who Is Going To Get It First

The Trickle-Down theory was best illustrated on SNL when Bill Murray, playing a gutter bum claimed to feel the new economy “trickling down” his leg. Although trickle-up has not had it’s day, it too is destined for failure. The smart politician and economist will recognize that we need a trickle-out economy. Such an economy will [...]

The Avant Garde

My avant garde is a circle that started as gut blasts on paper or in the airs and ears. When I was short of receivers I took to the learning part, a study that continues. As my acceptable skills became interwoven I wanted to proverbially stick my head up over the crowd and see what [...]

The Age Of Transparency

Liberalism is no longer a dirty word. It can, however, be slammed back into that dirty box if it is handles improperly. Liberal philosophy, as Eric Alter seems to be arguing, is best served when accompanied by progressive tactics. The institutionalization of progressive tactics will lead government to be more liberal. If this is true, [...]

UN-AMERICAN VOTES STILL COUNT

An interesting debate is bearing down on the Republican presidential primary, whether evangelical Christians will vote for a Mormon. Evangelical Christian and “Christian Leader” Mike Huckabee became infamous when at one debate he raised his hand as a creationist. Mitt Romney is becoming infamous to evangelical Christians because, the polls and pundits say, evangelical Christians [...]
