Remembering My Friend…And One Heckuva Writer!

Ken Burger 1949-2015 When I started this blog..the premise was to periodically point out "when the news that should make sense...doesn't".

This Is Not Your Father’s Pontiff. This Pope Is Awesome!

In case you didn't know it...I'm not Catholic. At the same time..I have been transfixed to my TV when Pope Francis has been the focus of camera lenses during his trip -- his very first -- to the United States.  From Washington, DC to New York City to Philadelphia, crowds have followed Francis wherever he's … Continue reading This Is Not Your Father’s Pontiff.

Next month, the first of many Republican debates will take place in Cleveland.  This first debate (to be produced by FOX News) will only allow the top 10 declared GOP candidates (according to the preference polls) on the stage.   The rest..well..better luck next time.  There are projected … Continue reading Let’s Change The Debate..By Changing The Debates

So…What Happens Next In Charleston?

I've said it before.  I'll say it again. I'm so proud of my native Charleston, SC. The forgiveness and -- as President Obama so aptly put it -- "grace" the city and her people have shown since the Emanuel A.M.E tragedy has been nothing short of remarkable.  I am privileged to call myself a Charlestonian. … Continue reading So…What Happens Next In Charleston?
