DONE!

Earlier this evening I finished reading THINGS THAT MATTER. All my complimentary remarks about the author still stand, underlined. Parts of this work should be required study by high school seniors in their American government classes. That is, after the teacher has learned it first and has passed a test on it. If that won’t work, try a senior English teacher. There is wonderful advice that Washington, D. C., could use right now. It’s something an ancient Greek said, but I won’t give it away. You find it for yourself and see what you can do about things that matter.

For some time I have believed one country should be dominant in the world and in a sense benevolently rule the others. Before you fight me on this, read this book. (Fight with Krauthammer! He’s stronger than I.) This is not the place for me to go into the subject any deeper, other than to say only one country is in any capacity able to be that hegemon. Enough on this for now.

I don’t know for sure what is going on with this blog, but today, before 4:30, Pete said it had already had 258 pageviews. It has to be Krauthammer, of course, but how do so many know I’m writing about him in my simple blog?

Well, it’s Christmas Eve. What a good day it has been. I wish you all a wonderful day tomorrow with your families, and a great wonderful reading year in 2014. ♥♥♥
