P.S. My grandfather grew up on a ranch and worked as a livestock commission man in the sandhills of Nebraska. An honest day for an honest dollar. He taught me the value of a firm handshake and a frank look in the eye. Yes, his name was Frank. And he said his word was his bond. That was America. Is this still our country?
P.P.S. Peggy Noonan, who endorsed our President Barack Obama. Now, second thoughts, he's a lightweight, neither a hedgehog nor a fox.
Earlier, before he officially announced, she had him pegged:
...he suggested he was an even greater figure than Lincoln. As Peggy Noonan put it then, Obama's resume is a "log cabin free zone. So far it also is a greatness-free zone. If he keeps talking about himself like this it always will be."Me, from the same post:
Obama is neither true celebrity, nor true statesman, neither fish nor fowl.
