Suddenly Sowell (plus a ruling in the Virginia school rape case)

The New Neo Posted on October 26, 2021 by neoOctober 26, 2021

Thomas Sowell is 91 years old, with a long record of accomplishment that includes the publication of many books that demonstrate an unusually brilliant clarity of thought and graceful yet economical expression of that thought. A few years ago he … Continue reading →

This book title…

The New Neo Posted on August 30, 2021 by neoAugust 30, 2021

…didn’t age well: The Worst President in History: The Legacy of Barack Obama. Then again, part of Obama’s “legacy” is the presidency of Joe Biden. Not only are quite a few of Biden’s advisors Obama administration retreads, but if Obama … Continue reading →

Obama and the release of the Gitmo prisoners in exchange for Bergdahl: coming home to roost

The New Neo Posted on August 17, 2021 by neoAugust 17, 2021

As if America’s stupidity and humiliation were not already enough, we now learn this: When President Barack Obama released five Taliban commanders from the Guantanamo Bay prison in exchange for an American deserter in 2014, he assured a wary public … Continue reading →

Obama’s birthday party

The New Neo Posted on August 9, 2021 by neoAugust 9, 2021

It was big, and probably mostly maskless. In the scheme of things, though, I find I don’t care. That Obama is a narcissistic hypocrite who likes to hobnob with adoring celebrities certainly isn’t what I’d call news. We absorbed that … Continue reading →

Looking back: how Obama used race in a way that’s become very familiar

The New Neo Posted on August 5, 2021 by neoJuly 13, 2022

I was searching for something on the blog yesterday and accidentally came across an old post of mine about Obama that I started reading out of curiosity. I decided to re-post it today, because it demonstrates how Obama introduced so … Continue reading →

Obama’s nasty, partisan, divisive, racially accusative memoir

The New Neo Posted on June 26, 2021 by neoJune 26, 2021

Obama has written still another autobiography, this one about his presidency. Actually, it’s not a new book; it was published last November 17, although I don’t recall reading about it at the time. The reviews quoted on Amazon are glowing: … Continue reading →

Obama the Expert weighs in on Critical Race Theory

The New Neo Posted on June 10, 2021 by neoJune 10, 2021

Oh, for the days when ex-presidents were silent in their post-presidential years, only to emerge for a ceremonial role or two. Those days are gone. I believe that Obama is still working behind the scenes as one of the people … Continue reading →

Caroline Glick explains the balance of power in the Middle East right now

The New Neo Posted on May 22, 2021 by neoMay 22, 2021

From Glick’s recent article: …[I]n the minds of the Iranian leadership and those of their Hamas proxies, the Abraham Accords represent the single greatest military and political threat to Iran’s nuclear and hegemonic ambitions. Destroying them is their strategic goal. … Continue reading →

Leftist influence in the military

The New Neo Posted on May 18, 2021 by neoMay 18, 2021

We started hearing reports during the Obama years of a switchover in terms of ideology in the military. Here’s an article about it (written some years later, but I recall hearing about it at the time, too): …[T]he Army that … Continue reading →

How about the Biden administration, those Abraham Accords, Netanyahu, and Iran?

The New Neo Posted on March 22, 2021 by neoMarch 22, 2021

I detest the Biden administration’s unraveling of so many of the accomplishments of the Trump administration. I only hope that a lot of the positives of the last four years will survive nevertheless, or at least that people watching the … Continue reading →

Obama’s nature

The New Neo Posted on March 4, 2021 by neoMarch 4, 2021

In yesterday’s thread about Joe Biden, the name of Barack Obama came up. There was a dispute in the comments about just how in charge Obama is right now, and also about how much in charge Obama was during his … Continue reading →

Rhetorical flourishes: remember when Obama named the opposition “the enemy”?

The New Neo Posted on February 4, 2021 by neoFebruary 4, 2021

At the time, it was looked on as something rather scandalous. This headline at Reuters tries to turn it into a Republican attack on Obama: “Obama seeks to blunt Republican attack over comment.” An excerpt: President Barack Obama said on … Continue reading →
