[AGL] Fwd: Two priceless articles from Op Ed News...

[Frances Morey]

Friends,
I cut and pasted links to these two priceless articles--they are characteristic of the fare on the Op Ed News menu, always razor's edge, well written, timely and relevant...
I recommend subscription, if you don't already have it.
Enjoy,
Frances
