I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Thursday, January 8, 2009. State of the State: Lacking in Substance. How impressive that Gov. Paterson memorized such a lengthy speech, but what a shame it didn't have more substance. Here are a few other things I was expecting, hoping to hear during the State of the State:. The Senate stands up for sustained applause]. Gov: I'm OK with the minimum wage staying at ...

I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Tuesday, February 10, 2009. To My Wife on Valentines Day. Rather than wax poetic, I think the best way to sum up what a great friend, companion my wife is would be to dish some snippets of our actual dialogue. After watching a few minutes of Teletubbies:. Mrs - Why are there no predators in Teletubbie world? Mr - What do you mean? Mr - No thanks. What am I Skeletor?

I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Friday, October 31, 2008. Leadership to Inspire Northern New York? I commend JCC for having a Leadership Day. And having Mr. Lengyel speak is quite a coup. However, was Mr. Lengyel their best choice for inspiring leadership in Northern New York? Couldn't they have found a leader that brought the community together to resolve its economic and development needs?

I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Thursday, October 2, 2008. The Enduring Epidemic of Turn-the-Other-Cheek Democrats. Though I believe Obama won last Friday’s debate handily, I kept waiting for Obama to make a knockout punch. Where are the firebrands? Where are the fighters? Where is the raw anger? Where is the unifying Democratic voice shouting, “No more! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Our elected of...

I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Monday, June 9, 2008. For Careful Consideration: McCain as CINC? Considering the question "Who will be the better Commander in Chief, McCain or Obama? It seems many voters make the quick conclusion that McCain is the obvious choice. McCain, on the other hand, actually saw little on-the-ground combat. As a naval pilot, you could say McCain engaged the enemy "at ...

I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Tuesday, September 9, 2008. An Open Letter to fellow Northern NY blogger, Danger Democrat. Sorry to beat a dead horse, DD, but again I say that the squashing of the McCain/Bush era depends squarely on spurned Hillary fans like you reaching out to other spurned Hillary fans and unifying behind Obama. Spurned Hillary fans should also keep this in mind: Imagine a worl...

Stump Speech: NY Resolution: A Solution with Every Criticism
http://stumpspeechny.blogspot.com/2008/12/ny-resolution-solution-with-every.html
I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Saturday, December 27, 2008. NY Resolution: A Solution with Every Criticism. Skim through the Northern New York blogs, and you’re likely to conclude most NNY residents are bitter complainers - resentlful of powers beyond their control and eager for someone to sue. It seems the younger folks have video games to let off steam; and the older folks have blogs. 8226; An...

I sit here all day trying to persuade people to do the things they ought to have the sense to do without my persuading them." - Harry Truman. Saturday, January 31, 2009. A One Home Economy? After almost 30 years of the Reagan Era, we are certainly entering a new era in the United States. If the Reagan years were defined by blind faith in free market and arrogant foreign policy, what will the Obama Era usher in? For the last three-four decades, it has been a status-symbol for middle-class baby boomers to ...

JCC’s Self-Defeating Hiring Habits: “Oh, How Will We Ever Stop the Brain Drain of Upstate NY? I recently discovered that an English teacher at Jefferson Community College recently jumped ship – within a year after being hired by the English Department. Were they both unaccustomed to dealing with a large number of military students? And yet, ...
