The Doctor Is In

Listening to Howard Dean reminds me of going to a doctor who starts out the visit by saying, \”Bill, you really look sick.\”

Maybe I do, but I don\’t want to hear it expressed quite so bluntly. Just like I didn\’t want to hear Dr. Dean saying in Los Angeles Dec. 15, \”The capture of Saddam has not made America safer.\”

Dean\’s pessimism was hard to take, especially right after the bearded villain was hauled out of the ground by American troops.

UJ Students SupportIsrael, Mixed on Iraq

\”President Bush has the best interests of the United States and the world at heart … if push comes to shove, I would fight with the American Army,\” said Jacob Proud, a 20-year old freshman in bioethics at the University of Judaism (UJ).\n\n\”I question the real motives for this war… I want my country and Israel to be as just and righteous as possible,\” observed Mark Goodman, 26, a second-year student in the UJ\’s Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies. The opinions, expressed in separate interviews during the first week of the war in Iraq, illustrate an obvious and a more subtle point.\n\nFor one, not all students think alike, not even in a university whose students are, by self-selection, dedicated to Judaism. Secondly, even within the UJ, undergraduates and rabbinical students sit largely on opposite sides of the fence.
