Spontaneous Incompetence
Kevin E. Dayhoff
In an incident, almost totally ignored by the dominant United States major news media, comes word that an American hero, the renown Army Green Beret-turned-Iraq/Afghanistan war correspondent, Michael Yon, was “arrested” January 5 as he entered the country for failing to disclose his income.

The Best Laid Plans….
Tom McLaughlin
Kuching, Malaysia – "Dad you really need to snap out of it!" Mary admonished as I had screwed up the departure day for Chengdu, China. I had lost all track of time and was, to put it mildly, blindly in love.

“My Littlest Fascist”
Roy Meachum
When Alex Mooney’s political fuzz still rested on his cherubic cheek, I took to calling the state senator “My littlest Fascist,” to the point he replied: “I don’t like that.” To which I answered: “Please stop acting like one, Alex.”

To Abide By The Constitution or….
Farrell Keough
This is actually the second column and submission by Delegate Don Dwyer of Anne Arundel County on this topic. The initial column spoke to the need for Mayor Sheila Dixon to be removed from office based upon a clear reading of the Maryland Constitution.

General Assembly Journal 2010 – The Final Chapter
Richard B. Weldon Jr.
It ended in a scene not unlike the day it all began. Standing in the threshold of Room 324B of the Thomas Hunter Lowe House of Delegates Office building, staring at a small office furnished with well-worn but very nice wooden desk, cabinets, side tables, and credenza.

Kicking the Dog
Steven R. Berryman
Last week two separate Republican Central Committees duked it out over the official appointment – short term – for the remainder of the term of the 3-B delegate seat being vacated by Rick Weldon.

The Impact of Heritage…
Michael Kurtianyk
I am proud to be a first-generation American. You see, my father (rest his soul) was born in western Ukraine, outside Lvov.

Another Systemic Screw-up
Roy Meachum
Some five years ago, in August, I was caught in Turkey when an attempt on an airliner occurred using fluid from the suspect’s shaving kit; that was when the feds proclaimed a limit on liquids brought on board.
The Greatest Confidence Game
Joe Charlebois
The world is being hoodwinked. World leaders and influential policy makers met last month to put forth a plan to stop global warming which will increase restrictions on individual freedoms by bringing forth a new era of sweeping international government power that the world has not seen in hundreds of years.

Dear President Obama,
Patricia A. Kelly
The following list of resolutions is my gift to you. The reason I want to help you out with this is that I think you're basically a nice guy with good intentions.

The Problem with Underwear
Kevin E. Dayhoff
The tranquility of the holidays was rudely interrupted by reality Christmas morning as the news spread quickly that a terrorist with an explosive device concealed in his underwear attempted to bomb Northwest Airlines flight 253 as it approached Detroit.

Into Wedded Bliss…
Tom McLaughlin
Kuching, Malaysia – A 6 A.M. wake up the day after your wedding? Yup! That's what time Suriani and I had to arise following our engagement and legal formalities in the kampung. My daughters stayed across the street in my condo while we retired to the Hilton for an exhausted sleep after a playful couple of hours.

Day Off But No Recyclables
Roy Meachum
It may be fashionable to criticize new Mayor Randy McClement for giving Frederick city employees Christmas Eve off; I don’t buy that line. Drawing from my corporate experience, nothing gets done in offices that date. Take that back: emergencies are sometimes handled – and that’s it.

It gets old. It really, REALLY gets old
Nick Diaz
The headline refers to all the moralizing and humbug by U.S. political and business hucksters when they visit Cuba. Take the delegation from the Congressional Black Caucus, which visited Castroland last April.

The Apple of Politics
Steven R. Berryman
In the beginning, the good Earth contained only two human beings. They had only one apple between them. Therefore, politics was born.

A New Year Dawns
Michael Kurtianyk
I remember my days on the Board of Directors at the Weinberg Center for the Arts. We struggled through some changes and did our level best to ensure that the Weinberg remained solvent.
