RAPID
RESPONSE (Archives)...Daily Commentary on News of the Day
This is a new
section. It will
offer fresh,
quick reactions by myself to news and events of the day, day by day, in
this rapid-fire world of ours. Of course, as in military
campaigns,
a rapid response in one direction may occasionally have to be followed
by a "strategic withdrawal" in another direction. Charge that
to
"the fog of war", and to the necessary flexibility any mental or
military
campaign must maintain to be effective. But the mission will
always
be the same: common sense, based upon facts and "real politick",
supported
by a visceral sense of Justice and a commitment to be
pro-active.
That's all I promise.

SINCE YOU ARE READING THIS, YOU KNOW
THAT THIS WEB SITE CONTAINS MANY "CATEGORIES" FOR YOUR
INTEREST AND INFORMATION.
YOU ALSO KNOW THAT THE SECTION
ENTITLED "RAPID RESPONSE: DAILY COMMENTARY ON NEWS OF THE DAY" IS
NOT FOR WEAK SISTERS.
SO HERE IS ANOTHER "POT
POURRI"; SHORT AND SPICY.
- Abortion
is an Abomination. And so is the Abortion Bill
just passed by the Ct. State Senate. SHAME ON YOU.
- "Freedom
of Religion" is not Freedom from Religion.
The current case before the USSC is a case in point...a close case.
- MERIT
VS. RACISM. EQUALITY VS. "EQUITY",
a cruel hoax. See the recent WSJ editorial (April 29, 2022) entitled
"Americans For Merit-Based Admissions".
- The
Catholic Church, The "Synodal Path"
and a belated return to Pope John XXlll's "Aggiornamento".
Will Pope Francis leave a Legacy...or just a strange bifurcated Papacy?
- "Trans-Athletes",
CIAC position...and Idiocy.
- COVID-19
AND WISHFUL THINKING. Let's see how many "positives" come out of
the massive national Correspondents Dinner held in Washington, DC. IT
AIN'T OVER!
- New
London Ct's famous "Potential" is
finally becomming an "Actuality", thanks to many citizens and to
admirers like Developer Preka.
- "OLDER"
VS. "OLD AGE". Older is a state of Body.
"Old" is a state of mind - and a choice. "World's Oldest
Person Dies at 119". Meanwhile, John Glenn at age 77 flew on
Space Shuttle Discovery. When asked why he would do such a thing at
"his age", he replied: "JUST BECAUSE I'M 77 DOESN''T MEAN I
DON'T STILL HAVE DREAMS".
- Who
and What are these mega-Billionaires? Do
they still put their pants on (men and women) one leg at a time? It
appears so, from the results of some good recent articles on this subject.
See: "The Issue With Billionaires", New York Times Magazine,
April 10, 2022. See also: "The Fortunes Of MacKenzie Scott, by
Kulish and Ruiz (in NYTimes Sunday Business, April 10, 2022).
- Education
vs. "Educators". Read Anything by Thomas
Sowell!. Fight the Teachers Unions goons. Support Parents as the First,
Ultimate and constant Educators. Support "Parents Against Stupid
Stuff" PAC in Connecticut.
- "CRIME
AND PUNISHMENT" vs. Crime and Anarchy, That is
the stark and deadly choice we law-abiding Americans are now facing,
thanks to the treasonous actions being taken by some local, State and
Federal politicians, with the encouragement and blessing of *Biden, his
crazy Leftists and the Racist Blacks among their greater Community. WAKE
UP, PEOPLE. The life you save may be your own.
- LGBT.
Transcend the crass and self-serving politicians and the Stupids. There is
something Real there, including some of our Fellow Man.
- THE
2020 NATIONAL ELECTIONS. The"Fat Lady" is
just warming up.

Georgia Is Putting Parents First
Georgia is on the front lines of the fight for parental rights.
On
Thursday, Governor Kemp signed into law multiple pieces of legislation
empowering parents by increasing transparency, oversight, and options
when it comes to their children’s education.
These laws are a result of a lot of hard work from our Sentinels and activists in Georgia, so congratulations!
Here’s what Gov. Kemp signed:- HB
1084: Protects students and teachers from racial discrimination,
compelled belief that any race is inherently superior or inferior, and
any curricula, classroom instruction, or mandatory training programs
that advocate for the divisive worldview of critical race theory.
- HB
1178: The Parents’ Bill of Rights, acknowledges the fundamental right
of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children,
protecting parents’ ability to review all instructional materials
intended for use in their child’s classroom.
- HB
517: Expands Georgia's private school tax credit so that parents in
Georgia will have more options for their children’s education.
And Heritage Action’s Southern Regional Coordinator, James Quarles, attended the signing ceremony…

ONCE AGAIN, PEGGY NOONAN IS WORTH
READING.
See: "Putin Really May
Break The Nuclear Taboo" (in WSJ April 30 - May 1, 2022, Opinion,
pA15).
The title may not be enough to get
your attention and your serious concern. So Read the article in its
entirety.
The reported Facts are alarming:
about Russian losses so far in Ukraine; about " Russia has ten times as
many tactical nuclear weapons as the US. and delivery systems that range from
artillery shells to aircraft"; about "the Russians are deliberately
creating a historical paper trail, as if to say they warned us"; about
Putin as the product of a since destroyed Soviet Union, something that he has
never gotten over and for which he is forever resentful of the West; at the
final act of his life, at age 70, "...I read him as someone who will do
anything not to lose".
And just at this time when we
Americans should be able to have total confidence in the information, the
wisdom and the common sense of our national leaders, beginning with *Biden, I
certainly do not.
Again: Read this article and come to
your own conclusion. Then take action on Election Day...if we are all still
around.

THIS COUNTRY
HAS ENTERED A STATE THAT RESEMBLES THE CRITICAL MEDICAL CONDITION CALLED "SEPSIS".
In the human body this results when
our Immune System. designed to protect that body from dangerous invaders, turns
on itself with inflammatory furor - and frequently kills its host by itself.
This is the condition that America
is facing right now. The systems designed to protect this nation from dangerous
invaders - from within and without - are being employed by the current
Democratic administration to weaken and to destroy the American body politic
that has served citizens well for over 200 years.
Why? Through a combination of Idiocy,
Hubris, and Malicious Intent by those within and without government who
wish us severe harm.
The best History and Physical Exam
of this current critical condition in America was presented on the evening
of April 28, during the 8PM ET Fox show of Tucker Carlson.
Please find and review it in
toto...before you dismiss the above as just hyperbolic rantings of a partisan.
But don't do it for me. Do it for
yourself, for your future, for that of your family - and for any sense of
Patriotism that you may have. For this patient can die in short order of this
Sepsis is not quickly and properly treated.

A GOOD MAN...AND A VITAL MESSAGE...
GS
From the Desk of Dr. Ben Carson:
Hello,
I don’t believe the majority of the public really knows what is being taught to our children and grandchildren.They
assume they are taught the same lessons we learned growing up—that
America is a land of freedom and opportunity where anyone has a chance
at success.From what I’ve seen, this isn’t always the case. However, I want to know what you’ve seen. Dr. Ben Carson, Founder and Chairman of American Cornerstone InstituteI believe that children as young as elementary age are being taught to reject our American values.They
are told that our Founding Fathers were massively flawed and that it
overshadows the nation they built. They hear that our Constitution is
“out of date” and needs to be “modernized.”Progressives
are rewriting our nation’s history and they are doing it with our
youngest and most vulnerable. We cannot let this happen!This
year I’m going to be meeting with political leaders and educational
“experts” across the country. I’m going to make sure people know what
is really happening in our schools. I
want to be able to share with them the thoughts of people who are
closest to the issue. Specifically, I would like to include your
thoughts.The
American Cornerstone Institute, a nonprofit I recently founded, has
created a unique survey. We’re trying to gauge the state of America’s
Educational System by surveying people like you.I’d
like to ask you to give me 2 minutes of your time so we can better
understand the problems that exist in our educational system. You can
access the survey here.
Thank you for your consideration.

PEGGY NOONAN'S ARTICLES IN THE WSJ ARE ALWAYS WORTH READING.
But in her most recent article, she confuses a "Presentation Problem" with a Product problem:
"Joe Biden Has a Presentation Problem" (in WSJ April 23-24, 2022, Opinion, pA13).
As
a Christian and as a physician, I get no pleasure in seeing *Biden
publicly displaying some of the more onerous signs of Old Age.
Too bad for him...and for all of us.
For the real Problem is with the Product:
Afghanistan;
Iran; Saudi Arabia; Israel; China; lost energy independence, absent
national southern border and national integrity,
tolerating the worst elements of our minorities, enabling the disruption of our national system of Law and Order, rewarding
sloth
and irresponsibility, spending the nation away from national financial
integrity, scandalizing his own "Christianity" with
the abomination of Abortion, enabling the Crazy, "Woke" and clue-less Left....

REMEMBERS".

One percenter. . . .
The 1% Age Group.
This special group was born between 1930 & 1946 = 16 years.
In 2021, the age range is between 75 & 91.
Are you, or do you know, someone "still here?"
Interesting Facts.
You are the smallest group of children born since the early 1900s.
You
are the last generation, climbing out of the depression, who can
remember the winds of war and the impact of a world at war that rattled
the structure of our daily lives for years.
You are the last to remember ration books for everything from gas to sugar to shoes to stoves.
You saved tin foil and poured fried meat fat into tin cans.
You saw cars up on blocks because tires weren't available
.
You can remember milk being delivered to your house early in the morning and placed in the "milk box" on the porch.
You are the last to see the gold stars in the front windows of grieving neighbors whose sons died in the War.
You saw the 'boys' home from the war, build their little houses.
You are the last generation who spent childhood without television; instead, you “imagined” what you heard on the radio.
With no TV until the 1950s, you spent your childhood "playing outside." There was no Little League.
There was no city playground for kids.
The lack of television in your early years meant that you had little real understanding of what the world was like.
On Saturday mornings and afternoons, the movies gave you newsreels sandwiched in between westerns and cartoons.
Telephones were one to a house, often shared (party lines), and hung on the wall in the kitchen (no cares about privacy).
Computers were called calculators; they were hand-cranked.
Typewriters were driven by pounding fingers, throwing the carriage, and changing the ribbon.
'INTERNET' and 'GOOGLE' were words that did not exist.
Newspapers and magazines were written for adults and the news was broadcast on your radio in the evening.
The Government gave returning Veterans the means to get an education and spurred colleges to grow.
Loans fanned a housing boom
Pent-up demand, coupled with new installment payment plans opened many factories for work.
New highways would bring jobs and mobility
.
The veterans joined civic clubs and became active in politics.
The radio network expanded from 3 stations to thousands.
Your
parents were suddenly free from the confines of the depression and the
war, and they threw themselves into exploring opportunities they had
never imagined.
You weren't neglected, but you weren't today's all-consuming family focus.
They were glad you played by yourselves until the street lights came on.
They were busy discovering the postwar world.
You
entered a world of overflowing plenty and opportunity; a world where
you were welcomed, enjoyed ourselves and felt secure in your future
although the depression poverty was deeply remembered.
Polio was still a crippler.
You came of age in the '50s and '60s.
You are the last generation to experience an interlude when there were no threats to our homeland.
The
second world war was over and the cold war, terrorism, global warming,
and perpetual economic insecurity had yet to haunt life with unease.
Only
your generation can remember both a time of great war and a time when
our world was secure and full of bright promise and plenty.
You grew up at the best possible time, a time when the world was getting better...
You are "The Last Ones."
More than 99 % of you are either retired or deceased, and you feel privileged to have "lived in the best of times!"

FOR THOSE VISITORS FAMILIAR WITH
THESE OFFERINGS,
this is a public service as well as
a personal service...to keep my blood pressure down.
And then, as is true today, there
are some issues that are sticking in my craw.
1) Did you see that giant roll of
toilet paper pictured in the April 3rd publication of The Day?
It must be headed to Washington.
2) About "Religion" and
religious posturing...vs. Spirituality, the more wholesome of the two concepts:
The Pope said that we are all
"Racists". NONSENSE. We are all human beings, more comfortable with
the more familiar..."La Famiglia".
Meanwhile, check out the effort of
the German Clergy to transfuse our anemic Roman Catholic Church with needed
dialogue, in the form of "The Synodal Way".
3) The Quest for a World Order. Good
Luck. "All Politics is Local", or at most Regional. Regional issues
are the tinder-box for world disorder that should always have our
attention.
The current example is Ukraine - to
which we must give Total Support and where we must achieve Total Victory for
the democratic Ukrainians.
Taiwan is the other example. The
alternative is a short nuclear WW lll.
4) Violence, ever more local and
ever increasing. This is Outrageous. And it is tightly intertwined with the
absence of RESPECT for the Rule of Law, the breakdown of parental teaching, the
absence of Morality, and the Stupid and Cynical dilution of the consequences of
Breaking the Law. This is of a piece with the decades-long failure of
Democratic Party sponsored Public "Education" that has produced two
generations of students who graduated high school without having earned
graduation from grammar school!
See: "Spiraling Violence In
Chicago: Causes And Solutions", by Matt Rosenberg (in Imprimis,
Hillsdale College, February, 2022).
5) This nation is dangerously
divided. We have only the elections of 2022 and 2024 to avoid a
revolution.
And the Republican Party must be
cautioned to avoid self-defeating CHUTZPA. The Party must be internally and
publicly United, It must be FOR specific reforms favoring the average
American - and not merely against the idiocies of the Democratic / Left.

"IN MY CRAW"...PART 2.
- REGARDING
STATE PIER IN NEW LONDON, CT. See the article by Kevin
Blacker posted on ctmirror.org on April 10, 2022. This boondoggle is being
brought to you by the majority Democratic Connecticut government and
by mishandling by its Democratic Governor. To all the aging
hidebound Democrats out there: "In order to be old and wise, you
must first be young and stupid". So how old must you be?
- "Parents
Against Stupid Stuff" PAC Sets Sights On CT Race For Governor",
by Mark Pazniokas (in ctmirror.org, April 12, 2022). Meanwhile, the
Republican candidate for Ct. Governor had better stop equivocating about
stupid stuff like "critical race theory" and transgender
"athletes" - or else he doesn't have a chance.
- A
recent article reported that "The State of Blacks in
America is Grim." Well, look in the mirror for
starters...especially on their pitiful persistent reliance on the cynical
Democratic Party for "assistance".
- Regarding
the recent O'Neil Center gala with Michael Douglas: What a
well-deserved tribute and Legacy for George C. White. A Good
Man. His "enthusiasm" was in evidence at the first O'Neil
Center gala held in 1968 (or was it 1969) which Therese and i attended.
The only little problem the hosts had was that they received $28
thousand dollars in donations - and spent $29 thousand dollars on the
event. Memorable.
- See:
"Women In Medicine: Burned Out And Fed Up", by Roni
K. Devlin, M.D.,MBS.(in http://www.medscape.com, April 6, 2022). As for
myself, I have always welcomed and enjoyed the unique insights that women
doctors bring to the bedside. But I also have a nagging thought. Who is
taking care of the children? It should be primarily their Mothers. Does
that make me "Sexist?" GO SOAK YOUR HEAD,,,for a long time.
- The
2020 Presidential election results are still in play...one
for the ages. So the * Biden stays put. This might be contrasted
with the 1960 Presidential election, in which Richard Nixon magnanimously
deferred to John Kennedy. Magnanimously and stupidly, since that was the
most crookedly run election to that time.
- What a
developing Legacy: Against Saudi Arabia and
Israel. For Iran and China. Whether Medical or not, THAT IS DEMENTIA.
AHHH. THAT FEELS BETTER.

WELL, THE TIME HAS COME TO DO
"SOMETHING NEW"...EVEN IF IT IS ONLY A TENTATIVE AND INTERIM
REPORT...
for the biological / medical /
psychological factual evidence on this subject are far from clear, at least to
me.
And I have been immersed in such
subjects since I became a practising physician 65 years ago.
ABOUT HUMAN GENDER: MALE, FEMALE...
The Biology involves genetics and
intra-uterine hormonal environment, at least....
The Psychology involves the entire
environment of Learning, from the earliest days of extra-uterine life.
And then there is the Politics of
human interaction - and of self-serving inter-personal manipulation...often
damnable but unavoidable.
Our knowledge in the first two of
these disciplines is, in my opinion, too incomplete to allow definitive
judgments about how to proceed, both in private interactions and especially in
irreversible public policy actions. Of course, in private interactions Charity
should be the guiding principle.
And so, from this unstable position,
I offer my opinions.
- Treating
/ teaching variations in gender before Middle School - outside of the
parental environs - NO.
- Any
medical / surgical efforts to modify or change gender before Puberty and
before careful psychologic evaluation - NO.
- Any
interference in Womens Sports, involving only genetic women - NO.
- Undue
deference to the positions of Organizations of physicians / scientists /
psychologists / clergy - as distinguished from the practitioners
themselves - NO, since these organizations are too vulnerable to the
"lowest common denominator" for those public positions. Here I
suggest the American Academy of Pediatrics as an example.
And I believe that, in this
Republic, formal legislative action - State by State - is appropriate to
support the above positions.
Meanwhile, there Are children
and adults around us who are "uncomfortable in their own skin", who
question their own sexuality...a Fundamental basis of the Human
Condition.
For some insight, read: "The
Secrets Of My Life", by Caitlyn Jenner (Grand Central Publishing,
2017).
This is not the subject of fevered
brains or of manipulative miscreants. T
THIS IS REAL...AND WE NEED TO
UNDERSTAND IT.

she is Liberal. Republicans: next time unite and Win Federal

- CHILDREN:
OUR GREATEST RESPONSIBILITY. Yes, they are experiencing
damaging side effects and developmental delay from all of society's
responses to the Pandemic. But: "WHERE ARE THE PARENTS?" Or are
these most recent adult generations simply doing "their
thing"? Fortunately, "Growth is in the direction
of Normal".
- And
now, Second-Guessing the Medical / Governmental responses to the
Pandemic beginning in early 2020. TOTALLY POLITICAL. TOTALLYI CYNICAL.
Our leaders responded properly to the then-available information and
events regarding the Pandemic. For my in-the-moment commentaries during
those many months, see my Rapid Response offerings for those times.
- GLOBAL
WARMING and "an unlivable
world". If you want cooperation today, make sure that Today remains a
livable world.
- Where
is the Durham Report? It is being killed aborning by
the fetid Democratic politics that has taken over every level of State and
Federal government, including Justice, Intelligence and Military. We have
only November 2022 and November 2024 to avoid a revolution.
- Donald
Trump and Mitch McConnell: a Good Team for the nation,
then and now.
- *Biden

approaching the gravity of the Civil War. Not Hyperbole.
- The
Tech Giants cannot be allowed to become a
Shadow Government manipulating Free Speech and election results.
- "Death
and Dying": Mainstream Journalism,
by omission and by commission. See: "Call It A Stealth Coup",
by Leonard Pitts, Jr. (in The Day, April 9, 2022). An "Out of

UNLEASHED WITH THE RAPE OF UKRAINE
BY RUSSIA, WITH THE ACTIVE SUPPORT OF CHINA...
the democratic Western World
either establishes a New World Order - or we lose to despotism, either
slowly or suddenly in a Flash.
As Russia and China have just
declared their "new world order" led by them and the other world
despots,
all the nations that have achieved
and now live under a democratic form of government
must now organize under a rule comparable to
Article V of NATO: "AN ATTACK
ON ONE IS AN ATTACK ON ALL".
And short of that disaster, the
Western Democratic World must immediately become sufficient within itself - economically
and in natural resources - without any reliance on any despots.
Here America can start with total
fossil fuel independence, reversion from cheap Chinese products to Made In
America, and elimination of any Iranian nuclear ambitions.
In this effort, the current schism
in America between national patriots and the Stupid Woke / Leftists will
resemble a walk in the park compared with the battle between those same
patriots and with those who worship only one god - money and power.obtained in
any way.
