At the Corner Deli I'll spread knowledge, comment and the exchange of ideas through discussion of topics of the day, history or whatever moves me to write. The views, fantasies and delusions I write about are tinged with the Jewish spark of my memories of places like the Ashkenaz Deli on Morse Avenue in Rogers Park, Chicago -- a place where you could come and discuss anything. So please, kvell and kvetch a little.

John McCain to the Des Moines Register on Sarah Palin
What McCain says here is at the same time a joke and a lie. The first part is a joke. The second part, concerning Mrs. Palin's "vast experience with one of America's significant challenges, energy" by getting a $40 Billion ("with a B") pipeline, is a lie. She paid off the Canadian Joint Venture to the tune of $500,000,000 (that's $500 MILLION, with an "M") "just to get a seat at the table" and the "agreement" that was signed with the oil company for a CNG pipeline obligates the Canadians to do absolutely NOTHING. She gave away the money for nothing.
