Revisiting Misstressed Opportunities
If only Monica Lewinsky had made a name for herself a few years earlier, I could have had the perfect role model. After all, Monica and I are the same age, attended good colleges, have loving parents.

So sad today to read of the death of Don Hewitt, 86, the brains behind 60 Minutes. I talked to him at length in 2006 and he was one of the most entertaining and sweet people I've interviewed.

Though we have elevated women to prime political positions, the media has cast female politicians in an odd, almost asexual maternal role. They're not allowed to wander off the territory.

Since the economy has melted, like Bush, Obama will be pelted, unless he rids us of malaise, for which he may have means and ways.

Last week's headline was quite salacious. "Gov. With Latina Quite Curvaceous" Guess he found someplace finer than his home state of South Carolina.

We can forgive Governor Sanford for his human frailties. We can pray for him. We can wish him well. But, what we cannot condone is another day of his remaining in the Governor's mansion.

Will Letterman now start to censor himself with his writers and, worse, when he interacts with his guests? All it takes is another person to mislead the media and public as Palin has shamelessly done.

For the last few years Monica Lewinsky has done her best to avoid the limelight. The 35-year-old is rarely seen in public, but was out-and-about in N...

Mr. Attorney General, I hope you will take the necessary action to help the people of the Secret Service do their jobs, confident that they will never have to be called to testify against a sitting President.

Obama's effort to resuscitate the US economy is artificial life support, since we are no longer energetic, enterprising, and creative enough to generate sufficient economic activity on our own.

Eric Holder told members of the Judiciary Committee last Thursday that his role in the Marc Rich pardon was a mistake and that he learned from that mistake and would not repeat it.

The more editorial cartoonist Mike Luckovich sees of Barack Obama, the more he likes the President-elect. Oddly enough, this turn of events has the Pulitzer Prize winning artist very, very worried.

Until now, Lewinsky was one of the few high-profile figures from the Clinton Presidency who had not been recruited for the incoming Obama team.

Why would Obama want to tarnish his brand new administration with the Clinton soap opera of Monica, Whitewater, Vince Foster, Marc Rich and company when he could start fresh with an entirely new team?

This is a graphic novel of a literary caliber and tells a very sad, sweet story of a writer finding himself.

Memorize this phrase, take a deep breath and say: "Now that I see how unqualified Sarah Palin is, I realize how I misjudged Hillary Clinton. Even Biden said she would have made a great vice president."

It is shocking that politicians with personal lives as deeply flawed as Edwards, the Clintons, McCain and others, set themselves up as defenders of an institution they have raped of all moral significance.

Stephanopoulos basically presided over a Clinton pep rally. None of the personal issues were raised and George was left sitting in his chair while Hillary paraded around the dais.

Is a rumor still a rumor once it's been videotaped, replayed on network and cable news, reported everywhere, debated furiously on cable news and in the press and been picked up all over the blogosphere?
