How to miss a big-time political point
07/16/2019 - 6:42pm
William Murchison
TRUMP PRESIDENCY: July 16, 2019 We have a president who dons fatigues and steel-toed boots whenever he enters a room full of politicians and media types, promptly takes an axe to the refreshment table and then invites all in the assemblage to put up their dukes. All oblige — like now, when the big national story, which doesn’t bear repeating after the last couple of days, is the...
June 6, 1944: ‘The Longest Day,’ revisited
William Murchison 06/05/2019 - 7:52am
At issue this week...    D-Day In my capacity as a certified, government-inspected old coot, I have taken particular interest in the bubbling excitement over the 75th anniversary of D-Day. It takes me back — not to D-Day itself, when I was in knee pants, but to the 18th anniversary thereof in 1962. Darryl Zanuck’s...

William Murchison 05/28/2019 - 5:39pm
REMOVING MONUMENTS: May 28, 2019 During the walk-up to Memorial Day, with its evocations of respect for fallen warriors, hypercharged Dallas, found time to stick out a very official tongue at, you see, the wrong kind of fallen warriors: The Confederate kind. The business of establishment America, on the urging of the political left, has become...
Abortion: The people are catching on
William Murchison 05/20/2019 - 8:22pm
ABORTION: May 20, 2019 So, when the U.S. Supreme Court numbered abortion among our precious constitutional rights, we expected everlasting bliss? Anything but the present knock-down-drag-out over Roe v. Wade and its prospects for survival? I mean, we’re stunned to see state legislatures moving to outlaw abortion? Why? On what grounds?...
The high price of cultural change
William Murchison 05/14/2019 - 4:06pm
DECENCY: May 14, 2019 It’s a funny thing about “culture.” It changes. That’s because people die and new ones get born, and along the way, Things happen, events of one kind and another — wars, elections, recessions, new inventions. The so-called culture bounces off these various events in surprising ways. Which is...
