As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

Can Biden save the Democrats from themselves?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/06/20/can- biden-save-democrats-themselves/

 

“Condemning the United States as a force for repression didn’t work for Democrats in the Nixon or Reagan eras, and it won’t work as a reaction to the Trump moment, either. Left unchecked, it would almost certainly lead Democrats to ruin in next year’s elections.”

 

“He may have been thinking of Donald Trump when he talked about a “battle for the soul of America” during the campaign, but I suspect that Biden is just as determined to save it from those who would recast the United States’s founding as a cynical exercise in subjugation.”
