Speaking of terrorists and families: the Moussaouis

The New Neo Posted on July 15, 2005 by neoJanuary 1, 2008

In a previous post, I referred to an article that appeared in the February 2003 Sunday NY Times Magazine, about the family of Zacarias Moussaoui. It’s unavailable now except through the archives, but I saved a copy of it when … Continue reading →

Reagan and me

The New Neo Posted on July 1, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

In yesterday’s “change” post, commenter “someone” asked what I thought of Reagan at the time of his Presidency. I had thought to go into that topic in the body of the “change” post, but it was already so long I … Continue reading →

More Bush mansions

The New Neo Posted on June 26, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

Dean Esmay has kindly linked to my post about Bush “mansions,” privilege, (extreme or otherwise), and family political dynasties. In his link, he also kindly offered to post the photo of the other Bush “mansion” if I send it to … Continue reading →

A Bush’s home is his castle: political family dynasties and dynamics

The New Neo Posted on June 22, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

Hold the presses, I got a scoop from Pancho, who happens to hail from Midland, Texas, the home town of one George W. Bush. (Okay, maybe it’s not exactly a scoop, since all this information is in the public domain–but … Continue reading →

Here’s to you, Anna Maria Louisa Italiano Brooks (aka Anne Bancroft)

The New Neo Posted on June 8, 2005 by neoDecember 7, 2008

This news is a shock–Anne Bancroft is dead at age 73. I realize now that in the list of my ten favorite movie stars, she should have had a place. But maybe I forgot to list her because she wasn’t … Continue reading →

The Brothers Hitchens: Dostoevsky lite

The New Neo Posted on June 4, 2005 by neoMay 8, 2010

I didn’t know that Christopher Hitchens even had a brother—he hardly seems like a person who has relatives at all, but rather to have sprung, full-grown, from the head of some fairly malicious Zeus . But he does have a … Continue reading →

Kerry–old habits die hard (but who’s counting?)

The New Neo Posted on May 2, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

In the course of writing my most recent Vietnam post, I found myself rereading the transcript of the 1971 Dick Cavett Show debate between John Kerry and John O’Neill. I couldn’t help noticing that Kerry does something quite familiar during … Continue reading →

Pope Benedict XVI

The New Neo Posted on April 19, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

Just in–a new pope has been elected. He’s Benedict XVI (formerly Cardinal Ratzinger from Germany), considered a hard-line conservative. I think it’s interesting, in light of my previous post about cardinals over 80 not being allowed to vote for pope, … Continue reading →

Saddam gets interviewed, but Dan Rather doesn’t get the scoop this time

The New Neo Posted on April 16, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

One of the wonderful things about blogs is that they make it possible to read news that would otherwise be missed. The Iraqi bloggers continue to offer their unique perspective, and Big Pharaoh in Egypt manages to bring still another … Continue reading →

Hirsi Ali: intolerant of intolerance

The New Neo Posted on April 5, 2005 by neoFebruary 14, 2008

I hope you’ve had a chance to look at this magnificent profile of Hirsi Ali in last Sunday’s NY Times Magazine. It is certainly “riveting,” as the Big Trunk at Powerline writes. I’m not quite sure why he calls it … Continue reading →

Pope John Paul II: formative years

The New Neo Posted on April 3, 2005 by neoFebruary 14, 2008

I join so many others in saying: Pope John Paul II, rest in peace. I wanted to write something about Pope John Paul II, although I’m not a Catholic. The picture that keeps coming to my mind is what he … Continue reading →

Bush lets his hair down–and guess what?….

The New Neo Posted on February 20, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

….he’s pretty much the same in private as in public, even according to the NY Times (linked article requires registration). Let’s see–so, he’s insightful and relatively articulate (even without evil puppeteer Rove feeding him the words), loving towards his family, … Continue reading →
