Every now and then there is a news piece that grabs me. This is about one of those.

A couple of things in addition before I discuss the interview.

Harvard Professors: There is an almost visceral distaste for Harvard Professors by a segment of people who don’t trust the liberal Eastern society.

Not all professors at Harvard fit this class. I’m reminded of Dr. Paul Conn who was a visiting professor at Harvard when we first met. He is a far cry from the norm.

THE US IS ALWAYS RIGHT Syndrome:...

Governor Mitch Daniels is either showing how large the catfish grow in Indiana or how far off the mark Obama is.

Either way, his speech following the State of the Union was totally remarkable.

Charles Krauthammer said that if Romney could memorize it and give it in every state, he’d be President.

Israel government officials are not reading the US papers, apparently. They are preparing to sink Ten Million Shekels into a new solar plant.

The difference in this is that they are using tried and trusted technology and not trying invent some new and un-appreciated...

DO NOT PASS THIS UP BECAUSE OF THE TITLE!! IN FACT WRITE TO ME.

Last month Ray Hanania wrote an article for Israel HaYom (Israel Today) newspaper. He makes the argument that the Palestinians are their own worst enemies. There is a load of great information in the piece, including some facts about one of the money people behind Newt Gingrich. (They also own the Israel HaYom paper.)
