position-of-power people house
Often what we do is open our house for various charity events. I don't seat according to protocol. I don't invite people because of who they are in the administration or their positions of power. The few who do come, are there because I like them.
people
Most of the people who live in Washington come from other places and you can learn something from them.
husband interesting advice
Last week I did a piece for Style on advice to Laura Bush about how to help her husband. This week it's religion. It just depends on what I find interesting at the moment.
believe world i-believe
I would rather live in McCain's world than Obama's. But I believe that we live in Obama's world.
sports football pain
The football season is like pain. You forget how terrible it is until it seizes you again.
pigs two ongoing
I never know what I'm going to do for the Post next. Two weeks ago I had a piece on Homeland Security. This is one of my pig ongoing projects. How unprepared we are for a terrorist attack.
years people crowds
I first came on the scene during the Johnson years and that crowd was out all the time enjoying themselves. Nixon wasn't particularly social but a lot of the people in his administration were.
polls democrat journalist
Every poll shows that most journalists are Democrats.
thinking white people
Even Colin Powell who was everywhere before he became secretary of state, just stopped going out. I think part of it was he didn't want to be viewed suspiciously by the other people in the White House who rarely go anywhere.
running people black
The first term of the Clinton administration was very jolly. Everybody was running around meeting people and of course, in the second term, everyone went down the black hole, which also happened at the end of the Reagan administration.
christian morning posts
This morning in the Washington Post there was a statistic about how 85% of Americans are Christians.
wine home lunch
I had cottage cheese for lunch and a glass of wine when I got home tonight.
