Dave Barry’s year in review: 2009 – MiamiHerald.com

Posted by Bio ↓ on Dec 30th, 2009

It was a year of Hope — at first in the sense of “I feel hopeful!” and later in the sense of “I hope this year ends soon!”It was also a year of Change, especially in Washington, where the tired old hacks of yesteryear finally yielded the reins of power to a group of fresh, young, idealistic, new-idea outsiders such as Nancy Pelosi.

    Wow! Read this one. It is really good. And this gentleman says it just like it is.

    This venerable and much honored WW II vet is well known in Hawaii

A humble man without a political bone in his body, he has never spoken out before about a government official, until now.
