The Good News According to Barack

(Page 5 of 6)

During his tenure as mayor in the 1990s, Schundler did revitalize Jersey City and plant the seeds for its continued development. This was minor miracle, something on a smaller scale to what Rudy did in New York City.

And if an honest assessment was made of the Mayor's positions vs. the notorious Jim McGreevey in their 2001 race for the governorship, the "rightwing" Schundler would be fully vindicated -- even by Joisey perverse standards.

JUST ANOTHER BRICK IN THE WALL
Re: Jay D. Homnick's Obama's Campaign Hits the Wall:

Rather than universalizing and turning into a metaphor the specific call by Reagan to tear down the evil Berlin Wall, Obama could have reversed the metaphor. After all, fences make good neighbors, as Robert Frost, who misrecited one of his own poems at the JFK inauguration, taught us.

Obama could have said:

Syria, build up the wall between yourselves and Lebanon and give up trying to reverse the Cedar Revolution.

Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, build up the wall that should make your borders barriers to imported weapons for Hezbollah and Hamas and Iraqi terrorists.

Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador, build up the wall of your borders to starve the guerrillas, kidnappers, and drug smugglers in nearby Colombia.

Robert Mugabe, build up a wall between yourself and your generals so they can't force you to try to stay in power in Zimbabwe.

Sudan, build up a prison wall to hold your genocidal outlaws, soldiers, and politicians.

Mexico, build up a wall to prevent illegal immigrants, drug lords, and terrorists from afflicting your beloved northern good neighbor.

Cuba, wall off the home of Fidel Castro as solitary confinement.

Europe, build up the wall of your borders to keep out honor-killing Asians and terrorists.

Democratic Party, build up a wall that keeps the leftist fringe from dominating the party.

Russia, build up a wall that shows you respect both former Soviet satellites and Western Europe rather than reverting to intimidation by energy cut-off threats that violate sovereignty.
