Joe Pisani (opinion): Cures for political division - golf, veal parmigiana and the Swimsuit Edition Joe Pisani FacebookTwitterEmail This artwork by Nancy Ohanian refers to different Republican and Democratic perspectives.Nancy Ohanian I have this really bad personality defect. Well, there are many, but this one’s so obvious I probably should do something about it. Counseling. Reprogramming. Mortification. It troubles my family members and friends because I keep what was known in the olden days as “bad company.” You see, I consort with liberals and conservatives ... even though it’s not always easy and nowadays it’s practically verboten. Quite honestly, it would be easier to pick a side and just delete half of my address book, but I can’t do that because you never know when I might need some good legal advice from my liberal lawyer or a good colonoscopy from my conservative gastroenterologist.
