  • 1 Who Brings the Funny? 3 Mirroring the Political Climate: Satire in History
    Notes 1 Who Brings the Funny? 1 . Obscenity, incitement to violence, and threatening the life of the president are several examples of restrictions on expression. 2 . There have been several cases of threats against political cartoonists and comedians made by Islamic extremists who felt their religion was being mocked. These examples include (but are not limited to) the Danish political cartoonist who drew a depiction of the Prophet Mohammed, the creators of South Park who pretended to, and David Letterman who mocked Al Qaida. 3 Mirroring the Political Climate: Satire in History 1 . I urge readers to review K. J. Dover’s (1974) and Jeffrey Henderson’s (1980) work on Aristophanes, and see Peter Green (1974) and Susanna Morton Braund (2004). Other work on Juvenal includes texts by Gilbert Highet (1960) and J. P. Sullivan (1963). I have also been directed by very smart people to Ralph M. Rosen, Making Mockery: The Poetics of Ancient Satire, (New York: Oxford University Press, 2 0 0 7 ) . 2 . Apparently, the “definitive” Pope prose is found in the volume edited by Ault and Cowler (Oxford: Blackwell, 1936–1986), and the “definitive” text for Gay’s poetry is edited by Dearing (Oxford: Clarendon, 1974). 3. The best collection from Swift comes from Cambridge Press: English Political Writings 1711–1714, edited by Goldgar (2008). Thanks to Dr. Sharon Harrow for her assistance in finding this authoritative resource. 4 . The most authoritative biographies of Franklin are from Isaacson (2003) and Brands (2002), and I recommend readers look to these two authors for more information on one of the most fascinating of our founding fathers.

HOWEY and JACOB CURRY INDIANAPOLIS – If there is a ticking time bomb or two awaiting Gov.

During his third State of the State address Tuesday, Holcomb fully en- joined both issues.

    NAREIT capitol Summer 2009 comments The quote to the left is attributed to the former Speaker of the House of "All politics is local." Representatives, Thomas P. (“Tip”) O’Neill, Jr. However, as revealed in his 1987 autobiography, Man of the House, O’Neill did not coin this phrase – it was —Thomas P. O’Neill, Jr. passed down to him from his father, Thomas O’Neill, Sr., on the occasion of the only political election the former Speaker ever lost, a seat on the Cambridge, MA City Council. As recorded in the book, “…when [the campaign] was over, [my father] pointed out that I [had] taken my own neighborhood for granted…I had received a tremendous vote in the other sections of the city, but I hadn’t worked hard enough in my own backyard. ‘Let me tell you something I learned years ago,’ he said, ‘all politics is local.’” And so, with this quote, the strong link between knowing what is happening in one’s own backyard and being a successful politician entered the political lexicon. For this reason, NAREIT staff began three years ago to undertake a serious effort to familiarize Members of Congress and Senators with the various REIT properties that form part of every Congressional backyard, or district. After all, there is at least one REIT property located in each of the 435 congressional districts. Legislators have accepted invitations to visit specific REIT properties located in their districts or states – shopping centers, regional malls, office buildings, research centers, and industrial warehouses – that were recently opened, recently expanded or redeveloped, or simply constituted a significant presence in the district’s local economy.

  • With Evan Bayh's Surprise Entry, Indiana's Senate Race Has Turned
    With Evan Bayh’s surprise entry, Indiana’s Senate race has turned from red to purple overnight blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2016/09/19/with-evan-bayhs-surprise-entry-indianas-senate-race-has-turned-from-red-to-purple-overnight/ 9/19/2016 In a traditionally Republican-leaning state, former Democratic Senator Evan Bayh’s bid to get his old job back now means that Indiana may be competitive for the Democrats in the Hoosier’ State’s US Senate election this year. As part of our series on this year’s key Senate races, Andre P. Audette writes that Bayh may not face an easy race. GOP Congressman Todd Young has been relatively insulated from any negative effects flowing from having Donald Trump at the top of the ticket, and Bayh has already faced accusations that he no longer maintains his Indiana connections. The highest profile races in Indiana in the 2016 election cycle were both defined by sudden changes to the ballot: the gubernatorial race when Mike Pence (a Republican) left the race to run as Donald Trump’s vice president, and the senatorial race when former Democratic Senator Evan Bayh shocked Hoosiers by jumping into the race at the last minute, replacing Baron Hill as the Democratic nominee. The latter race promises to be hotly contested as control of the US Senate hangs in the balance. Bayh’s entrance changed most political rankings of the Senate seat from “safe Republican” to a toss-up or even leaning Democratic, which is reflected in most polls showing Bayh leading his opponent, Congressman Todd Young, by a comfortable margin.
