Richard Nixon a liberal?

Laci the Dog (Free subscription) | 6 hours ago

What is the US becoming? Somehow the topic of US health care came up at dinner last night. It seems that Richard Nixon proposed a comprehensive health care plan in 1974! : Now it is time that we move forward again in still another critical area: health care. Without adequate health care, no one can make full use of his or her talents and opportunities. It is thus just as important that economic, racial...

What If JFK Had Lived? One Surprising Answer

FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH | Bryce Zabel (Free subscription) | 5 hours ago

What if John Kennedy survived Dallas? Historians love to speculate on this “what-if” scenario, wondering if magically the nation would have been spared the pain of Vietnam and even Watergate. They have missed the point. If he’d gotten out of Dealey Plaza alive, John Kennedy might easily have suffered the same fate as his arch-nemesis Richard Nixon -- humiliation and removal from office....

Obama, the Great Wall and Nixon's Ghost

Imagethief (Free subscription) | yesterday

With everyone else on the planet weighing in on Obama's visit to China last week, I didn't want to miss the party. I wrote a brief article for the website of the magazine Foreign Policy comparing Chinese and American press coverage of the visit. The title and blurb are theirs (the title is much better than mine, but I never used the phrase "Tricky Dick"), but the rest is all Imagethief,...

on leaders visiting the Great Wall .... Bush takes the cake. Richard Nixon, visiting the Great Wall of China in 1972, said: ‘I think you would have to conclude that this is a great wall.’ Ronald Reagan, visiting the Wall in 1984, said: ‘What can you say except it’s awe-inspiring? It is one of the great wonders of the world.’ Asked if he would like to build his own Great...

Transform debates Nixon Drug Tsar on BBC World Service

Transform Drug Policy Foundation (Free subscription) | yesterday

I had a great opportunity today to discuss global drug policy on the BBC World Service (broadcast internationally) with Dr Robert Dupont , the first director of the US National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the second US Drug Tsar from 1973 to 1977 under former presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. It was a refreshing change to have a decent amount of time to talk through some of the issues...

Obama continues traveling in Dubbya's Road

Cuba Journal (Free subscription) | 11/20/2009

When it comes to the issue of U.S.-Cuba relations, Barack Obama, due to his inexperience and naiveté, continues traveling the failed road of his ten predecessors. This is due, I believe, to the typical arrogance of American presidents. They think they own the world. The facts of the matter is that they don't. If he truly was interested in better relations with countries that he deems as enemies...

Today: Senator Amy Klobuchar looks at the health care bill and Rachel takes a look at Richard Nixon’s gap. Ayes on the Prize Rachel started us off with the news that we are perilously close to actually getting some health care reform. Or at least to the Senate getting to vote on whether they can debate and then vote on health care reform, with maybe another vote or two thrown in for good measure....

Can Phil Bronstein Really Be So Dim Witted?

Le Blog de San Francisco. (Free subscription) | 11/20/2009

Phil Bronstein, unaware he's probing the depths of a sad irony:Not every president in the last 35 years has considered Richard Nixon a role model. But our current POTUS seems to.When the darkly fascinating Mr. Nixon declared Charles Manson guilty of murder before that 1970 trial was over, there was only a small intake of national breath. What about that whole innocent-until-proven-otherwise thing
