  • Obama Speech Offers Opportunity for Healing

    Published September 01, 2010

    The president’s words of praise for the men and women of the U.S. military were eloquent and heartfelt.

    Here's what I want to say to my friends on the right AND the left.

  • At Long Last, Universal Health Care

    Published March 20, 2010

  • The Gift That Keeps on Giving

  • THE FIRST 100 DAYS: Obama Steers Clear of the Culture Wars

    Published April 27, 2009

    Anyone else notice the silence? Listen to what you don't hear in the Age of Obama. Since Barack Obama has been sworn in as the 44th president the lack of rancor and angry debate on abortion, guns, and gays has been stunning.
