Today I printed everything I've published since I left government 4 years ago...

I wonder what I got right -- and, more importantly, wrong -- about how the world has changed since then.
Atrophy or a trophy, there's nothing in-between.

Was upside down jet-lagged after a month in Japan, but jumped on Bloomberg and pointed to the obvious: Ukraine isn't going to get what it needs from this White House.

"The answer to hate is not hate."

Erika Kirk

Amen. And she forgives her husband's killer. What a beautiful and powerful thing to do for the entire nation.

The blue collar of the Democratic Party has slowly faded, until, at best, it is now an off-white denim color.

Meanwhile, the white collar of the Republican party got darker and darker: today it is a navy hue.

What the country needs is not the second American revolution, of right or left, but the first American restoration, a bloodless return to our principles.

Our society is suffering because of a simple, single error.

We have not distinguished between the fact of an utterance and an utterance itself as a fact.

The former are always true. The latter, not.

Thus, lies are reported as a duty by those and for those who want the truth.

“We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may have strained, it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of memory will swell when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature.”

Unacceptable and gross to shoot someone while they speak in public. Sick to my stomach.

The only time you truly understand an idea is when you understand it well enough that it might have been yours

Then you have the sensation of it being correct, even if it's wrong

Thus Aristotle: the mark of an educated mind is to entertain an idea without necessarily accepting it

Trouble is, if you move fast and break things and the thing you break is the thing in which you are moving fast, you've stopped moving, fast or otherwise, and are just breaking things.

In the 21st century, America can be either a second Athens (soft power options and trade) or a second Sparta (more hard power and low domestic consumption).

Jumped on Global Pulse and reminded the world of that time I got inflation dead right and a hard landing dead wrong. Gotta keep it honest folks.

If forced to choose between a world with more presidential power and no friends, or a world with friends and a normal presidency, we should not hesitate to choose the latter.

My life's work might be described as thinking twice about what's in the news, sometimes even three times.

Alas, it appears some folks don't think about it once.

Watergate got super charged, remember, when the White House refused to release tapes.

Not because of what was on the tapes.

The refusal.
