Barbara Olson: New York
built 635 days ago
While much of Barbara Olson's work has been published in the American media (The New York Times, The L.A. Times, USA Today), this collection has been designed with the Canadian solver in mind. These puzzles are not overpowered by Canadiana, but they do have a mild "maple" flavour that will appeal to anyone wishing to learn more about this country, and to all those crossword-solving Canucks with an appetite for a taste of home.

The Clinton M.O., as Barbara Olson recognized, has usually been to "engage in some marginally lawful and blatantly abusive conduct, often actually violating existing laws. When caught in the act, they could call for new laws making their prior conduct illegal and decry the flaws in the system that allowed them to misbehave in the first place. It was like O.J. Simpson calling for an investigation to find the murderer of his wife. Except that the Clintons trotted out this maneuver again and again."

While Ted Olson made arguments for candidate Bush, Barbara Olson became a well known face on cable TV news programs. Camera-worthy in long, straight blond hair, sleek suits and spike heels, she delivered unrelenting Right-wing, and sometimes contrarian viewpoints, as was the case during the Clarence Thomas hearings.
