"Churning the waters of our sick culture" is the subject of his column today. He says, "It's true that culture is more important than politics. However, you could impose Sweden's laws on the Middle East tomorrow but don't hold your breath waiting for the Saudis to turn into the Swedes of the Arabian Peninsula."
Our culture also has it's sickness more than ever before seen or heard in my lifetime. Goldberg talks of the South Florida lifeguard who left his designated location to save a drowning man 1500 feet away only to be fired next day by his superiors for dereliction of his duties. (Under public pressure, he was offered his job back, but his common sense, so lacking in much of our culture in the U.S., advised him not to accept the sadly belated offer)
Goldberg also reported that in California, going bankrupt California, of course, a suicidal man walked into the ocean and police and firefighters on the scene made no move to save him because of 'union rules'. They stood on the beach and watched.
And you wonder why I have a strong dislike for union bosses and the elected boards who grant these bosses this kind of power.
Liberal Nancy Pelosi brags how ObamaCare, the bill she admits she never read, "will allow us to be more creative, be a musician, a policeman or whatever, you can LEAVE your work and pursue your dreams."
Sure.
