Honoring America's workers
Monday September 06, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- Today is Labor Day, and we have been celebrating the holiday for well over 100 years.

It has to be dark to see the stars
Monday August 30, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- It has to be dark to see the stars, and Hurricane Katrina has been no exception. Coming to the Gulf Coast 15 days after the storm, I saw the devastation and the chaos it created. That chaos was not only in the buildings gone but in lives unmoored. Families that were barely hanging on were ...
What happened to loyalty, friendship?
Monday August 23, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- There is a huge lack of loyalty in the United States. People are all too willing to throw people under the bus, and they do so at any convenience. Before the Internet and even fax machines (late 1980s), there was much more direct communication. You had to pick up a telephone or go see s ...
Kagan to bring a 'center' court
Monday August 09, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- Elena Kagan was sworn in, and now we have a court that is a bit more to the center. Kagan is no Justice John Paul Stevens, although my hope is that she will grow into a more liberal justice. The hearings were as expected, and so was the vote with the more centrist Republicans ...
Solution to America's dangerous addiction
Monday August 02, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- Spending the weekend in the Mississippi Gulf, I marveled at its sheer beauty. The weather was hot, and the ocean was gorgeous. The beaches looked pristine. Then, when I looked a little closer, I saw men wearing vests, little white tents and lots of plastic bags. The BP cleanup crews work from daw ...
Conservatives: Hold Breitbart accountable
Monday July 26, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- When I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, I learned that we had trial by jury and that people were innocent until proven guilty. We watched courtroom dramas where people we thought were guilty from all the available facts were proven innocent when the likes of Perry Mason defended them in court. I thoug ...
Haley's Navy
Monday July 19, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- First, truth in advertising. I am a liberal Democrat who knows Gov. Haley Barbour, as I am president of the Marsha Barbour Center in Pass Christian, Miss. The center was named after Mrs. Barbour because of the amazing work she did after Hurricane Katrina. That being said, I am in a unique positio ...
America turns its back on the hungry
Monday July 05, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- Today is a holiday, and yesterday we celebrated the birthday of our nation. America was founded as a place "with liberty and justice for all." That would be wonderful to believe, but in an incredible report, "A Place at the Table: Prohibitions on Sharing Food With People Experiencing Home ...
Soccer captures America
Monday June 28, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- There have been only two times that I have seen the press act out of character. The first was in the mid-'90s and six of us were touring one of Mother Teresa's facilities in Africa. After a tour arranged by Catholic Relief Services, several members of a group of six reached into their pockets and ...
A vision for Ohio and America
Monday June 21, 2010 by Ellen Ratner -- Yesterday was Father's Day. I lost my father when I was 10. He was an immigrant, and the United States allowed him to do well, earn an Army-Navy Production Award for the production of gun triggers during World War II and provide well for his family. He was a model of charity and giving and was pa ...
