They wanted politics. Give them politics.

Political supervision is not ideal, but it has become necessary - what are the alternatives for reform? None, and what they are doing is not acceptable. We're there...

Now that they have our attention, it is time to reconsider the institutions comprehensively. Citizens have no obligation to pay for sinecures for radical political indoctrinators and ideologists. Such persons should be shoved out of public academia.

Let the Blue State taxpayers find them sinecures, if they wish to. Or let them work - like the rest of us.

We're giving them politics and they're finding that they only like politics when they're in complete control. Too bad! No going back now.

Your presentations are sharpening - the battle suits you.

It can also be ruinous - which you know; your boating pics and hiatuses clarify that you are aware of that. Life should be good!

Of course, my wife keeps me very aware when I’m out of balance and helps me correct.

Our 30th Anniversary is here in a few days - so I know what you mean!

Thanks for the forum, Christopher, in addition to your work. Our elected officials hardly ever do much of what you are doing - and certainly not with your clarity and purpose.

Precisamente, Cristóbal. It is precisely that which they wish not to be known which must be made known.

To paraphrase a Roman expression: They wish to be Master - let them answer.
