My guess is that none of the "dozens of aides" were even around before 1975.

I really wish Dr. Bijou every success in her career search. The big money has always been in sociology.

Thank you, Dr Rahe. I was enlightened by your arguments and distressed by their implications.

God bless your Dad.

It's too heartbreaking to look at those Detroit photos.

"It's your professionalism I respect."

Same here.

One would think bin Ladin would want Biden in the driver's seat to hasten the U.S. descent into crisis. But, maybe he outsmarted us one last time; by seeing that Obama was taking us there well enough on his own.
