Sexual allegations: the Democrats, Biden, and Kavanaugh

The New Neo Posted on April 28, 2020 by neoApril 28, 2020

The blatant and politically opportunistic hypocrisy of the Democrats is easily revealed by comparing their position regarding the Kavanaugh sexual accusations versus the Biden sexual accusations. The Republicans have been relatively consistent in saying about both: take a look at … Continue reading →

Why does Joe Biden want to be president? (And why did Trump want to be president?)

The New Neo Posted on April 25, 2020 by neoApril 25, 2020

I think that Biden’s desire to be president, which has lasted for more than three decades and apparently was formed much earlier than that, is an example of pure ambition of the personal sort. Obviously, virtually all presidential candidates are … Continue reading →

I’m starting to think that Joe Biden’s VP pick will be Michelle Obama

The New Neo Posted on April 22, 2020 by neoApril 22, 2020

The only limiting factor is whether she’d accept – in other words, whether she wants the job. And by “Joe Biden’s pick” I mean Biden or whoever is handling him, which in part may be Barack Obama. I have long … Continue reading →

Israeli politics: the headline tells the tale

The New Neo Posted on April 20, 2020 by neoApril 21, 2020

[See UPDATE below.] Here it is: “Reports Fly That Unity Government Is Imminent: Earlier Reports Indicated Collapse.” That makes it all crystal clear, doesn’t it? Contradicting earlier reports that coalition talks had collapsed, Israeli media now reporting that an agreement … Continue reading →

What we’ve learned from COVID-19 so far

The New Neo Posted on April 20, 2020 by neoApril 20, 2020

Aside from a crash course in Epidemiology 101 and terms like “flatten the curve”? Here’s a list: Top Ten Surprising Consequences of Covid-19 Hysteria: 1: Democrat governors rediscover federalism. 2: Wanna-be totalitarians can’t help but unmask themselves. 3: Trump gets … Continue reading →

Remember the FISA abuses?

The New Neo Posted on April 13, 2020 by neoApril 13, 2020

I certainly do. COVID-19 has eclipsed most everything (even on this blog), but it really shouldn’t. Of course, there’s also the very real question of whether anything will ever happen to the people who perpetrated the abuse, short of getting … Continue reading →

“Just anecdotal”…

The New Neo Posted on April 8, 2020 by neoApril 8, 2020

…but powerful nevertheless: However, from everything I’ve heard and read, the medication combination is probably most effective if given before things really go south. If a person is already on a ventilator, for example, the amount of lung damage that … Continue reading →

“How the Wuhan Virus Will Change the World Order”

The New Neo Posted on April 8, 2020 by neoApril 8, 2020

Recommended. Here’s an excerpt: We don’t know exactly when Beijing officials learned about Wuhan’s troubles, but it was probably early- to mid-December. They didn’t learn earlier because local officials know the surest way to lose your position is to give … Continue reading →

Once more, with feeling: Updike on Kundera

The New Neo Posted on April 7, 2020 by neoApril 7, 2020

[NOTE: This is a repeat (slightly edited) of a previous post. It seems timely, as I think you’ll see as you read it. Maybe it’s always timely.] I’ve quoted the following excerpt before, because it’s one of my very favorites. … Continue reading →

More on China’s media connections

The New Neo Posted on April 7, 2020 by neoApril 7, 2020

Yesterday I wrote a post that dealt with some of the propaganda efforts of China, and how they have bought influence in news media: Now there’s this comprehensive article focusing on the American MSM: The companies that own the major … Continue reading →

Conversations with friends: “Trump did nothing”

The New Neo Posted on March 28, 2020 by neoApril 8, 2020

Now that we’re all housebound, I find myself talking on the phone to friends more often. Sometimes they’re people I’m not often in touch with, and – since I don’t ordinarily bring up politics in conversation anyway – most of … Continue reading →

Flu vs. COVID-19: worrying about hospital shortages is nothing new

The New Neo Posted on March 28, 2020 by neoMarch 28, 2020

Commenter “Montage” writes: Covid-19 is not just like the flu, which some want you to believe. In all the years of the flu we didn’t have hospital bed shortages or a worry about the number of ventilators that will be … Continue reading →
