This has been &#8220;a long and winding road,&#8221; and in the four years we have been doing this blog, we have had a grand time! We have made many friends, ticked off a few people with our politics, and had our say on a multitude of issues. There comes a time, however, when the road ends or takes a new ...]]></description>

It looks like Speaker of the House John Boehner is up to his old tricks again, threatening to block an increase in the federal debt limit ceiling without obtaining significant new cuts in spending.  There is little doubt that the last two years, which resulted in over $1.0  trillion per year in deficit spending, will bring the country close to ...]]></description>

Last Tuesday&#8217;s Republican primary in the State of Indiana represented a sad day for America, and yet another step forward for the ultra-conservative Tea Party movement.  Richard Lugar, a thirty-six year veteran of Congress, known as being one of the last  remaining moderate Republicans in the Senate, was soundly defeated by Tea-Party backed candidate Richard Mourdock.  Ironically, the political virtues ...]]></description>

It should come as no surprise that the highly dysfunctional U.S. Senate was unable to reach a compromise on the so-called &#8220;Student Loan Bill&#8221;.  Although most lawmakers in both parties agree that extending the low 3.4% rate on federally subsided Stafford Loans would be a good thing, the disagreement comes on how the $6.0 billion cost would be funded.  As ...]]></description>

In the recent presidential elections in France the voters sent a very clear signal to the French government, to the other European members of the EU, and to a lesser extent, the rest of the industrialized world.  The message was that the French people would no longer tolerate sharp budget cuts and economic austerity as a response to the budget ...]]></description>

With the possible exception of Newt Gingrich, John Boehner  just may  be  the most ineffective Speaker of the House  that America has ever seen.

The U.S. Postal Service is in deep financial trouble, and it doesn&#8217;t look like things are going to get much better any time soon.   Declining mail volume, combined with a congressional mandate to prefund retirement health care benefits have resulted in a $5.1 billion loss for the latest fiscal year.  This situation is sure to get even worse in subsequent ...]]></description>

The Republicans  have spent the last year or so wrangling with each other in an attempt to get across to the voters their own particular brand of  conservatism.  Likewise, the Democrats have spent the last year or so responding to the GOP&#8216;s trumped-up charges of mismanagement, and have attempted to brand the Republicans as extremists who out to destroy the ...]]></description>

In this  year of great political turmoil within the Republican Party, it would be difficult to come up any additional  characters that could possibly be more derisive, or further out of touch with middle class Americans, than  the presidential wanna-bees of Romney, Santorum, Gingrich, Perry, Bachmann and Cain.  Over the course of the  last year, all of these Republicans have ...]]></description>

I have not always been a fan of the Reverend Al Sharpton, but yesterday in the news conference in which Special Prosecutor Angela Corey announced that Zimmerman had been arrested and charged with second degree murder, Sharpton was measured in his response. He expressed gratitude on behalf of the family, and thanked all those who sought justice for Trayvon Martin’s ...]]></description>

The Constitutional principles that are the basis of the U.S. government have served America very well over the last 225 years, although these principles have been sorely tested from time to time.  In fact, the U.S. Constitutional itself  has been amended twenty-seven times since it was first enacted in 1787, and one time was rejected altogether by a group of  ...]]></description>

I only know that through many of my life circumstances, I would not have made it through without my faith.

A whole lot of middle class Americans, who have been watching the value of their 401K  retirement plans go up and down like  yo-yo&#8217;s over the last four years,  are beginning to look  fearfully toward Europe for a sign of what might be in store for the U.S.  Unfortunately, the picture isn&#8217;t very pretty.   Much like the U.S., European countries ...]]></description>

If there was ever any doubt about Mitt Romney&#8217;s dangerously naive  understanding of  U.S. foreign policy, look no further than a statement he made last week about Russia.   During an interview on CNN&#8217;s &#8220;The Situation Room&#8221;, Romney described Russia as America&#8217;s primary enemy, or its chief  &#8220;geopolitical foe&#8221;.  This statement may, in fact, have been true thirty years ago during ...]]></description>

The story of the death of Trayvon Martin will stay with all of us for a very long time. I will not go into arguments over alleged facts. I only know that this young man died and should not have. Florida has the Stand Your Ground Law. Was Trayvon&#8217;s death an unintended consequence? Perhaps this was inevitable. But my heart ...]]></description>
