Ted kennedy, hatch, crafted compromises. They were both strong partisans, but they had the spirit of compromises. Thats our main prescription for compromise. But if you look at senator hatch, he was a pretty well threatened by the tea party, the primary potentially ousted from office because of the compromises. True, and we dont say compromise is difficult, governing is difficult, however, as politicians, what do we remember hatch for . For passing great legislation to protect health care. Were not going to remember politicians for their cowardness, but for their courage. Were in the going to remember them positively for cowardness, but their courage.

Limiting the amount of money that is politics. The problem is you cant get reforms without compromise so we all have our favorite reforms. Politicians

So you try to tell the story in a way that is, where the reader is on the edge of his or her of ceasing all my god, what would ive done in this situation . And any great movie, any great book that youve read, so i novelized biography, its a creation, and artistic creation. But i would say other than just the bare facts as you saw in that book, anything thats written about her necessarily 100 years later has to have some degree of projection of whoever is writing. So what i have tried to do is show her as much as a man can get into a womans head or into a womans heart, show her going through the various struggles and surmounting a lot of these difficulties that she was able to surmount in her life. What it did for her inside and out a broader to this place. That whole catholic world reveres her and explained that in such a way to tell the story to people who find it an enjoyable experience, to read and e
Host good afternoon, josh. Its to talk to you about this wonderful book down in the chapel. The book arrives is what is seen as an opportune moment the year that there has been much discussion on different sorts of the place of prisons in American Society and contemporary moment in particular on one hand of Michelle Alexanders the new jim crow and more recently i was introduced through colleagues to the new netflix phenomenon orange is the new black, right quicks on one hand the polemic against massive incarceration and the other hand this personal story of interesting entree into the prison system. I think in many ways your book is able to deal of the detailed description of Human Experience and weigh in against a system as it were.

And if the the supervolcano at yellowstone, which i understand from my reading in terms of geographic geological time, that should be happening pretty soon. Would that be a thing where maybe north america would be wiped out and the population, the rest of the world would have some time to adapt . Or should we have built underground cities we can go to . Any thoughts or comments about that . Yeah. We dont have any control over we dont. You should always be working on building underground cities. So please start soon.
