This was an interesting read. And I am not saying that because of my views- this is an interesting read to lovers of politics from all sides. Seriously, it is time for our President to stop worrying about FOX News and start doing something positive! It's His Rubble Now And the American people want him to fix it. By PEGGY NOONAN At a certain point, a president must own a presidency. For George W. Bush that point came eight months in, when 9/11 happened. From that point on, the presidency—all his decisions, all the credit and blame for them—was his. The American people didn't ... Read Full Story

Those Who Make Us Say 'Oh!' A tribute to America's war heroes, past and present. By PEGGY NOONAN More than most nations, America has been, from its start, a hero-loving place. Maybe part of the reason is that at our founding we were a Protestant nation and not a Catholic one, and so we made "saints" of civil and political figures. George Washington was our first national hero, known everywhere, famous to children. When he died, we had our first true national mourning, with cities and states re-enacting his funeral. There was the genius cluster that surrounded him, and invented us—Jefferson, Adams, Madison, Hamilton. ... Read Full Story

Peggy Noonan has always been one of my favorite writers. Her polished writing skills are legendary, as is her well-thought-out, frank views. I read her now in the Wall Street Journal , but she became famous as a speechwriter for Ronald Reagan, crafting some of his best-remembered lines. Recently, she shared some of those political thoughts with Scott Ross. Peggy’s musings on the election and the American political landscape in general appear in her latest book, Patriotic Grace: What It Is and Why We Need It Now . Scott Ross' interview with Peggy Noonan : Scott Ross: The title – " Patriotic Grace" - ... Read Full Story

I read an interesting commentary by Peggy Noonan of the Wall Street Journal which has the Democrats in an uproar. I thought it quite insightful, and so I share it with you. Obama Gets Serious 8-29-08 The famous Greek amphitheater didn't look all Alexander the Great if you were there. It looked instead like the big front display window at Macy's during Presidents Day Sales Weekend. You expected to see "Sofas 40% off!" in a running line on the bottom of the screen. A friend said the columns looked like "a ballroom divider at the Hyatt Hotel." AP It wasn't until the end of ... Read Full Story
The problem is not that Americans are disheartened over inability to solve our problems.  Here is what Noonan is missing I started reading Peggy Noonan in the Wall Street Journal some time ago.

Hedge-funder Mark Spitznagel in the Wall Street Journal huzzahs Ludwig von Mises' nearly century-old Theory of Money and Credit for laying out the basics about why we are in such an econ-jam these days, and pointing toward a path alas not-taken toward a solution.

We are governed at all levels by America's luckiest children, sons and daughters of the abundance, and they call themselves optimists but they're not optimists—they're unimaginative. They don't have faith, they've just never been foreclosed on. They are stupid and they are callous, and they don't mind it when people become disheartened. They don't even notice.

In the immediate term, we should move slowly. In an unstable time, in an unstable environment, with many movable pieces and uncertain dynamics, the best thing to do, often, is nothing dramatic. When all is excitable, move deliberately, thoughtfully. Listen, weigh and consider, with the emphasis on listen.
