David Gergen's (Future) Epitaph
To paraphrase Mary McCarthy on Lillian Hellman, every word that comes
out of his mouth is a cliche, and that includes “the,” “but,” and
“and.” Almost nothing he says is ever original, insightful or
thoughtful, although he delivers his empty phrases in a professorial
honk that seems to convey authority. If you want to know what
everybody else within the Beltway is thinking, Dave is your go-to guy.(

California's Proposition 71 Failure
Five years after a budget-busting $3 billion was allocated to embryonic
stem cell research, there have been no cures, no therapies and little
progress. So supporters are embracing research they once opposed.
That picture looks like Houston
ReplyDeleteThe good news on Prop 71 is that it added hundreds of millions to California's annual debt cost.
ReplyDeleteIt is the gift that will keep on giving until the state admits it is bankrupt.

I'd have to give Sarah at least a B+ last night. She did good. Quick on her answers, no hesitation. I just wish she had a better speaking voice.
ReplyDeleteThe girl in the picture, wearing the purple dress, strongly resembles Pina Pellicer, who played Louisa in "One Eyed Jacks".
ReplyDeleteLouisa was the step-daughter of the sheriff, played by Karl Mauldin.
The sheriff and Marlon Brando's character had, in the past, been bank robbing sidekicks.
JMcD - Did you just recommend a movie? Thanks - One Eyed Jacks added to my queue......

ReplyDeleteI know this isn't related, but this stuff has already ruined the news for me, and pretty much everything else today, I can't watch ESPN without hearing about the earthquake. Sorry for the innocent loss of life, certainly...But this happens every year there. They can't have tropical storms without displacing a million people. I'm about sick of tax dollars supporting this drug peddling, child selling POS country.
Not feeling very Christian today.
Another recommendation for One -eyed Jacks.
ReplyDeleteRAK
Louisa was a sweet and sympathetic character in "One Eyed Jacks", and her portrayer,a great actress, Pina Pellicer's suicide at thirty years old was tragic and disheartening.
ReplyDeleteOne Eyed Jacks is one of the best revenge movies you'll ever see-directed by Brando too with a ton of B actors you'll recognize. If you haven't seen it yet, I envy you.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know Pina killed herself, just saw her in an old Fugitive
