Prager 20110228-03 Reasons for Pessimism

Prager H3: DDennis is not sanguine about the chances for democracy sprouting forth any time soon in the Arab Middle East. Gaza is a good case in point.

Democratic Ohio Senator, Sherrod Brown, says that the ability for public service unions to given millions of dollars to elect the officials with whom the unions negotiate their contract is a moral issue. He’s right. It’s immoral.
