I know, it’s been a while since I’ve published a commentary. Chalk it up to a medical situation and, of course, Thanksgiving. It doesn’t mean that I haven’t been piling notes on my stack of stuff.

When former President Obama titled his 2006 book, “The Audacity of Hope,” he should have taken note of the dual definition of the word, audacity. He chose it, I’m sure, for its references to boldness and daring, the “I am” individual he is.
During his weekend appearances for Democrat candidates in New York, New Jersey and Virginia, the content of his remarks reflected the definition of audacity I relate to Obama … imprudence, Impertinence and presumption.… read more
