Exposing the Eloquent Fraud of Barack Obama
2008-09-25 23:00:00 Andrew Sullivan called Obama’s acceptance speech to the Democratic National Convention a “transformative event.” Other Obama acolytes are similar gaga every time the Illinois Senator speaks before a large crowd.

Obama Comes Back Tough and Eloquent Today on Bush/McCain
2008-05-17 02:25:00 Barack Obama came out swinging today in a South Dakotan town hall meeting and subsequent press conference - tough, eloquent, intelligent response to Bush and McCain's slurs about Democratic "appeasement".Among the highlights of what Obama said -.The Bush administration, supported by McCain, is responsible for the strengthening of Iran - a consequence of the U.S. destruction of Iran's enemy, Iraq, and on the basis of weapons of mass destruction which were never found..American Presidents ranging from Kennedy to Nixon to Reagan were unafraid to sit down and talk with our enemies, because they understood that talk is not at all the same as appeasement..Hamas was strengthened by the Bush administration's pushing of elections in the Palestinian territories before those places were ready. And - it was McCain, not Obama, who called for talks with Hamas several years ago, before McCain adopted the Bush agenda..Obama also made a good, clarifying statement about the Second Amendment: he s...

An Eloquent, Mesmerizing Aria of a Story
2008-01-31 16:21:00 Grady Harp is Amazon’s #7 Top Reviewer Alessandro Baricco’s SILK is a rare extended poem or aria of a novel. The author’s background as a musicologist is evident in the way he fashions his tale of sensuality and eroticism: statements are made only to be repeated verbatim later in the story of four excursions to Japan as though having said it once merely requires a reprise; moments of visual senses and responses are in fragments, like breaths inhaling and exhaling the unspeakable quality of beauty and desire; the ‘chapters’ are brief, often one page in length, like an aside to the reader. It is a hauntingly beautiful song and Baricco composes it well (the translation from the original Italian by Ann Goldstein is equally as sensitive). Hervé Joncour is a silkworm merchant living in 1861 France in a town Lavilledieu whose wealth is dependent on the silk manufactured form the eggs and hatched larvae of the silkworm. He is married to Hélène Joncour, a beauti...

Strong, Silent Men Wax Eloquent In Print To Refute Mehl Study [Thus Spake Z
2007-07-31 22:27:00 You can study it scientifically, gather the data, analyze it, publish it in Science, and have it discussed on NPR. But by golly, if you are asking us to give up cherished stereotypical beliefs about male and female nature, then you can just take your data and shove it, mister! You are wrong, wrong, wrong, because My Personal Feeling About How Things Are says otherwise. This, of course, would be the kind of reaction stirred up by Matthias Mehl et al.’s study Are Women Really More Talkative Than Men?, published in the July 5, 2007 issue of Science. Let us consider the abstract from the paper - it couldn’t be more straightforward: Women are generally assumed to be more talkative than men. Data were analyzed from 396 participants who wore a voice recorder that sampled ambient sounds for several days. Participants’ daily word use was extrapolated from the number of recorded words. Women and men both spoke about 16,000 words per day. That’s pretty blunt. ...
Democrats Debate on PBS: Eloquent But Not Much Debate
2007-06-29 04:37:00 The best moment of tonight's Democratic Presidential Debate on PBS came at the very beginning, as all candidates were eloguent in their outrage over the U.S. Supreme Court's 5-4 decision today permitting racial segregation in college residential housing. A half-century after the High Court, under Republican Earl Warren, ended segregation in the schools, today's Supreme Court Republican majority is working hard to undo it. I've been saying since 2000, when the Supreme Court stopped the recount on Florida, that the long range results of that benighted court decision would be to continue the benighted majority on the Court.It was very fitting, then, that the debate took place at Howard University, the historic African-American university in Washington, DC.Otherwise, the debate was so collegial as to be boring. Important issues such as the high rates of AIDS in African-American women were also raised, but just about every candidate agreed wholeheartedly with every other candidate...
