Are you familiar with Thomas Sowell? His response to the President's recent Oval Office speech is an excellent place to begin

"Thomas Sowell is an American economist, social theorist, political philosopher, and author. He is currently Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University. Sowell was born in North Carolina, but grew up in Harlem, New York." - Wikipedia
I have read several of Sowell's books and followed his articles with great interest. He is one of the most intelligent and inciteful pundits I know. If we really wanted to have a black President just for the sake of having a black President, I wish that we had actually looked for one with some merit. Sowell would have been a far better choice.

Agreed 100%; Sowell would be included with guys like Mike Rowe and Walter E. Williams on my short list of people I wish would run for President!

If nothing else, they need to be brought into the next Administration. Whomever is elected is going to need all the help they can get to sort out the mess that Obama is leaving

He said "pussy" and got booted off the network for it. However, I doubt he'll suffer overly much for it

MAJ Matthew Arnold, CPT Jack Durish, I believe that Lt. Col. Ralph Peters was just suspended for two weeks. I don't know how much of a penalty this will be as he doesn't seem to appear that frequently on the Fox news shows that I watch.

Dr. Thomas Sowell is someone I highly respect. Glad you read his latest article. I also ran his article at http://arkansasgopwing.blogspot.com/2015/12/the-presidents-speech.html with a great cartoon by Nate Beeler.

He can criticize Obama because he is black so he doesn't have to worry about being labeled a racist. Same as Jewish journalists are the only one who can criticize Israel. Sowell use to be better, before Obama, than he currently is. Now he just spouts the Republican party line. The real shame is the man who Sowell replaced is no longer around , Charlie Reese. He gave them all hell. And it is a dang shame the Thro(throw the rascals out) movement died out as a result of it.
