ad astra: March 2014

Monday, March 31, 2014. Americans Against the Tea Party. In the last few weeks, on Facebook, I began following an organization called Americans Against the Tea Party. You who follow my blog know just how right-up-my-alley such a site would be. The Tea Party. Is generally vile, selfish and hateful and, I believe, it represents everything that America isn’t. I recommend you look into Americans Against the Tea Party. Americans Against the Tea Party. Why not become a follower? Send me an email. Here's a pret...

ad astra: The Republican Disgrace
http://chasblogs.blogspot.com/2014/08/the-republican-disgrace.html
Monday, August 11, 2014. I read this little tidbit on Facebook in the last couple of days (I guess it’s not really a tidbit but something meatier than that for us to chew on). The American people ought to be examining just how badly the Republican Party (at least all the wildly conservative elements of it) has disgraced itself over the last four or five years. Why not become a follower? If you read my blog regularly, why not become a follower? Here's Google's explanation of how to do it. Send me an email.

ad astra: Is Religious Freedom Truly Possible?
http://chasblogs.blogspot.com/2014/07/is-religious-freedom-truly-possible.html
Monday, July 28, 2014. Is Religious Freedom Truly Possible? Japan may be the best example on earth of true religious freedom and harmony. There is something terribly awful and morosely sad about the way the Middle East is eradicating diversity. I felt a chill when I read this little sentence from a column by Thomas L. Friedman in the NY Times… [. 8220;Jews and Palestinians, Shiites and Sunnis keep forcing each other into tighter and tighter ghettos.” [Thomas L. Friedman]. I have long dreamed of an Americ...

ad astra: Congress Reaches Extraordinary Low
http://chasblogs.blogspot.com/2014/08/congress-reaches-extraordinary-low.html
Saturday, August 2, 2014. Congress Reaches Extraordinary Low. I’ve been around for quite some time and I’ve never seen a congress as bad as what we’ve seen in the last four years and I didn’t think it could get worse – until this week! What changed my mind? Once, in a letter to a friend, Mark Twain wrote of Congress…. 8220;…the smallest minds and the selfishest souls and the cowardliest hearts that God makes…. In other places, Twain wrote of Congress…. 8220;…I never can think of Judas Iscariot with...

ad astra: April 2015
http://chasblogs.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 20, 2015. And Finally, a Goodbye! I turned away from this blog with no explanation. It is probably because I am incapable of explaining. First, I must apologize; then I must try to explain my sudden abandonment of my blog. With that sincere apology in place, I would like to explain the reasons why I gave up blogging without appropriately departing. I still find it difficult to believe the direction that America seems to be taking. It is a dash away from reasonableness as far as I am con...

ad astra: January 2014
http://chasblogs.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 31, 2014. This and That from the Cold North Country. We really are running out of places to put. Snow around our house. I wonder what. It will be like when all this stuff melts. Occasionally, I ramble! This is one of those blogs in which I just take on a number of issue (big and little) that have been on my mind lately; and perhaps, also, on yours. Everywhere I turn, I see dcusine. D’Amico and Sons. Which has one of the best kitchens in the entire metro area. I first read about dcusine.

ad astra: Thinking Back On Being an American
http://chasblogs.blogspot.com/2014/08/thinking-back-on-being-american.html
Friday, August 22, 2014. Thinking Back On Being an American. I’m proud I’m an American! Please understand that. America is a great nation which provides enormous opportunities for people. But, it is all so much more complicated than that and it is foolish not to wrestle with the many complexities. There was no room for debate or dissent about this! What makes America so great? In what areas may we have failed? The promises that America made to itself are extraordinary and beautiful and nearly reverent...

ad astra: Watergate! So Many Years Ago!
http://chasblogs.blogspot.com/2014/08/watergate-so-many-years-ago.html
Saturday, August 9, 2014. So Many Years Ago! We’ve just finished observing the 40 anniversary of Richard Nixon’s resignation from the Presidency. It brought back so many memories. What a time that was? The scandal, of course, led to the very first and only resignation of a sitting U.S. President. Richard Nixon stepped down in shame and guilty of the abuse of law. America’s newspapers and the U.S. Senate had taken the nation to the place where they could really see the Presid...It was an incredible time i...
