Free Press Opinion: Some things never change | Chattanooga Times Free Press (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I was younger, so much younger than today (credit The Beatles for that lyric from "Help"), television networks would rerun programs that had originally been broadcast the previous fall and spring. A few still do, like "Wheel of Fortune" and "Jeopardy," but those are syndicated shows. Still, it can be fun to watch programs you missed, or even ones you have seen, especially if you can impress someone with "Jeopardy" answers because you know them. Reruns that always annoy are the political ads
Free Press Opinion: Is socialism advancing our expiration date? | Chattanooga Times Free Press (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It has become a truism that people who are embracing socialism have never had to live under it and its ideological twin, communism. Young people seem so enamored by these train wrecks that they are willing to vote for the most radical candidates who promise them the moon and claim they can pay for it all by increasing taxes on "millionaires and billionaires."

Free Press Opinion: Can demon Hamas be transformed? | Chattanooga Times Free Press (opens the original)
Read excerpt

Read excerpt
President Trump's performance at Friday's retooled White House Correspondents' Dinner made me nostalgic for the days of Vice President Spiro Agnew, President Richard Nixon's media attack dog. In a speech, Agnew called politicians critical of Nixon administration policies "nattering nabobs of negativism," a phrase written by his speechwriter William Safire, and later usurped by media to apply to journalists.
Free Press Opinion: In Maine, Troy Jackson is Graham Platner lite | Chattanooga Times Free Press (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Troy Jackson, the Maine Democratic Party prospective nominee for the Senate, is Graham Platner lite. Platner withdrew from the race to face incumbent Republican Susan Collins following allegations that he sexually assaulted two women, charges he has denied. At least Platner was consistent in his Democrat Socialist of America (DSA) views. Jackson resembles a flip-flopping fish out of water. Jackson has changed parties faster than he changes clothes, going from Republican, to independent, to Democ
