Tom Christy

CHRISTY: The Age of Hypocrisy

This week I read “Mornings on Horseback,” the biography of Teddy Roosevelt’s early years written by America’s premier biographer David McCullough.....more>>

  • CHRISTY: Another spectator sport
    Tom Golisano is handing his political director, former Erie County Democratic Chairman Steve Pigeon, $5 million for an unprecedented political attack fund targeting the New York State Legislature.
  •  CHRISTY: Another unnecessary kick to your wallet
    Another major expense at the New York Power Authority — completely unrelated to the generation of power — has been uncovered by the media.
  •  FAIR GOVERNMENT: The wasting of a great regional asset
    My biggest pet peeve is that we tend to value things rather than people, when in fact people are our most valuable asset. It’s important this week that we talk about the New York Power Authority.
  • CHRISTY: In the blink of an eye
    Life comes at you fast — so says the television commercial for a product I can’t even remember — and you’d better be prepared.
  •  CHRISTY: Do you matter?
    Let’s state right off the bat that every human life matters and everyone has value in our society.
  • CHRISTY: World justice
    The world is flat they say — meaning that information travels at such a speed and quantity that every country is now in direct competition with every other country, no matter where on the globe you sit geographically.
  •  CHRISTY: It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt
    Isn’t anyone willing to stand up and say enough is enough?
  • CHRISTY: Rodeo season in full throttle
    Our great state legislature, the highest-paid and most regal in the nation, is winding down its 2008 season by putting forth as many distractions as possible.
  • CHRISTY: Republican or Democrat
    Each political party thinks they get attacked, picked on or singled-out every time an official gets labeled as doing something stupid, unethical or even illegal. It’s the classic kindergarten strategy: look, they do it too, go yell at them.
