John Palmer: Decadence on the left and right (Opinion)

1 week ago | wvgazettemail.com | John Palmer

In our polarized society, we may agree that decadence has crept in, but the red and blue sides are far apart on what that means. Those on the right would hold that homosexuality and transsexuality constitute the major incidence of American decadence. Those on the left would probably pick as their No. 1 example the hollowing out and weakening of Americans — in terms of education, health access and physical and mental health — excepting only those of great wealth. Quite a difference.
John Palmer: The handbook for resistance (Opinion)

1 month ago | wvgazettemail.com | John Palmer

Paul Epstein, in a single op-ed published earlier this month in the Gazette-Mail, has written a handbook for anti-Trumpers. He has listed every kind of method to protest President Donald Trump and also ways to support anti-Trump organizations. I hope this op-ed and others like it spread over the internet. Epstein had been, in his own words, in near depression. So why is he doing this now? One obvious answer is the mere passage of time.
John Palmer: Trump's response to air disaster nauseating (Opinion)

Feb 5, 2025 | wvgazettemail.com | John Palmer

The headline ”67 dead in DC crash: Trump blames FAA and DEI for crash” made me sick, but not because of the 67 lost souls. We all know that, statistically, on a per-mile-traveled basis, airline travel is safer than surface travel by automobile. Of course, people will die in travel-related accidents. Unless we know one of the travelers, those of us who can put the situation in perspective, may not summon up much grief over the death of those who are strangers to us.

Jan 15, 2025 | wvgazettemail.com | John Palmer

Susan Williams’ excellent op-ed published in the weekend edition of the Gazette-Mail mentions, in passing, our northern neighbor, Canada. “… we may live to see Trump followers armed with military grade weapons sweep over the border into Canada,” Williams writes.

John Palmer: Democrats eating crow? (Opinion)

Dec 10, 2024 | wvgazettemail.com | John Palmer

“Democrats are eating a giant helping of crow since voters delivered a stunning victory to Donald Trump after spending months — years really — claiming he was a racist, a wannabe dictator Adolf Hitler and a threat to democracy,” reads an opinion piece published in the Nov 30 edition of The New York Times. So, here in clear and strong terms, this writer claims that the election proves Trump is not a “wannabe dictator Adolf Hitler.”But it is the writer of this rancid piece who is mistaken.

Nov 27, 2024 | inkl.com | Martin Woollacott |John Palmer |Martin Walker |Anna Tomforde

The decision to stage a joint press conference at the end of the turbulent seawater summit was one more programme change forced on the two leaders yesterday by Malta’s stormy weather. President George Bush had planned to have his press conference on the USS Belknap, and President Mikhail Gorbachev to have his on the Soviet liner, Maxim Gorky.
John Palmer: How do we keep going when pain is coming? (Opinion)

Nov 21, 2024 | wvgazettemail.com | John Palmer

The opinion page of the Gazette-Mail weekend edition had some excellent pieces concerning Donald Trump’s reelection to the presidency. Every one of them was well informed and every one of them is bleak. As the excellent Phil Kabler put it, we are in for a world of hurt. But as worthy as these pieces are, they don’t tell us how to operate in this world of hurt to come. Indeed, some might be taken to imply dead-end strategies.
