George Will is right: Jeff Sessions, with his defense of civil asset forfeiture, has no regard for due process or the rule of law. NO to AG!— Ronald Guillemette (@raguillem) December 25, 2016

RIP, George Michael
There's a lot of confusion about the unexpected death of the brilliant songwriter/performer who fronted the pop duo Wham before going solo in the 1980's, one of the top pop artists of the 80's (besides Michael Jackson, Lionel Richie and Madonna). There was earlier discussion of him dying peacefully with his family nearby (which leads one to wonder if he had some serious illness like cancer), but the word now is that he died of heart failure.
George Michael wrote one of the most brilliant pop singles of all time ("Careless Whisper"), and he would be remembered for that alone. He sang other big hits as well, the enigmatic hit embedded below being my personal favorite; the arrangement and performance are spectacular.
