The man who won’t talk to Hamas but will talk to Iran, invokes Kennedy, Roosevelt and Truman as justification for him wanting to talk to Iran to convince them not to hate us or attempt to destroy Israel.
The other side can label and name-call all they want, but I trust the American people to recognize [...]
En cada ocasión que paso unos días en Londres, cumplo con uno de mis ritos: visitar Grossvenor Square, una deliciosa plaza presidida por uno de mis héroes: Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Roosevelt es uno de los grandes emprendedores del siglo XX y quizás también el más olvidado frente a las figuras de Pepe Stalin, Churchill y Adolfo el Cabo. Sin embargo, fue un hombre que supo enfrentar y sobrevivir a casi todo, un auténtico self- man. Tuvo que afrontar una de las peores enfermedades que pueden afectar a hombres de su carácter. Se inauguró en la presidencia afrontando la peor crisis económica de la historia de Estados Unidos. Tuvo que navegar entre los deseos insistentes de un solitario Churchill y la decisión de involucrar a su país en un conflicto generalizado. Y finalmente,
In 1907, America had an intelligent, articulate, and patriotic president.
101 years later, we are stuck with an inarticulate alcoholic dyslexic who speaks better Spanish than English, and who believes that American sovereignty and homeland security are less important than cheap lettuce!

My new poker philosophy is summarized in seven beautiful words from our nation's 26th president: "Speak softly and carry a big stick."I am becoming convinced that in order to be a truly dominant player, one must separate himself entirely from the face values of his cards. After all, you aren't playing "cards," are you? The kind of people that fall in love with face cards, small pairs, and suited connectors are the same ones who become endeared to a game they don't understand. And that is the beauty of the beast, the fact that obvious amateurs will show no desire to learn or improve, yet will continue to open their wallets to play in a game they think they can compete in. It's as if a 5'9'' 160 lb. man with an ego issue decided to pay a couple grand to step onto the field in an NFL game. He
It Is Not The Critic Who Counts by Theodore Roosevelt"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, and comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.Shame on the man of cultivated taste who permits refinement to develop into a fastidiousness that unfits him for doing the rough work of a workaday world.

Wandering around Chicago’s lakeshore near the Shedd Aquarium I was walking over the Roosevelt Road Bridge and realized this rickety looking shanty (in my photo above the train) was actually in service as the Roosevelt Road commuter rail stop for the Metra. This station, which appears likely to ignite into flames at a single carelessly dropped match, is at the end of a gangplank like uneven wooden walkway. In addition, riders are forced to wait on a small narrow uncovered platform between busy tracks.
As far as the appearance of safety - it looks one notch above a hastily assembled carnival in a K-mart parking lot. I have a certain appreciation for “lost in time” structures, but I usually see that in semi-collasped barns of the midwest. Not in a gleaming modern place such as this Chicago area.
Good news however for those who want to see this station updated: I googled “Roosevelt Street Station” and found this Sun-Times article describing plans for imp

ISBN-0306802325Patronage does not really help a party. It helps the bosses to get control of the machinery of the party--as in 1912 was true of the Republican party--but it does not help the party. On the average, the most sweeping party victories in our history have been won when the patronage was against the victors. All that the patronage does is to help the worst element in
Roosevelt Historic District Revitalizes Phoenix:
A few years ago, Maria Capogreco’s friends told her she was taking a big chance opening a deli in the Roosevelt Historic District. But she had faith in the future of what once was – and soon would be again – a thriving urban neighborhood. She was right.
The former working class community had been a streetcar neighborhood during its heyday between 1895 and 1930. The area saw both California and Craftsman bungalow styles built on the narrow, deep lots along its streets. During years of decline, the neighborhood seemed destined to be a blight on Phoenix, but caring residents had another plan.
Many other neighborhoods have become historic districts, but Roosevelt led the way in 1986 as the first to earn that designation. Phoenix officials now point to Roosevelt, which is bounded by McDowell Road, Fillmore Street, Central Avenue and Seventh Avenue, as a model for turning around sagging urban areas by enlisting residents to work with

April 9, 2007 Oregon Family Partners With Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation to Protect Roosevelt Elk Coastal Habitat Family Donates 106-Acre Conservation Easement Near Siletz River (April 9, 2007) Missoula, Montana — The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation has teamed up with a conservation-minded family living along the central Oregon coast to conserve critical habitat for Roosevelt elk. The habitat is located along the Siletz River near the town of Siletz, about 20 miles north of Newport, Oregon. The area is migratory corridor for elk, and contains old-growth timber and native forage preferred by elk and other animals. Ben and Debbie Hogevoll donated the conservation easement to protect wildlife habitat and prevent residential development. The easement will protect the land for th
