You've got to be kidding

I suppose this would be OK if they were required to vote Republican.

Home-schooled kids -- The Horror

The New York Times has an interesting article about small Patrick Henry College, which was founded eight years ago to serve mainly evangelical Christian home-schoolers. Patrick Henry's purpose is to turn students into political leaders -- much the same as many Ivy League schools. However, these political leaders would be Christians first, and politicians second, […]

9/11 and the 2004 election

President Bush has unveiled his first television ads of the 2004 campaign (you can see them here). Two of the three ads show some a couple of seconds of extremely tame 9/11 images. Predictably, Bush opponents -- including some who are relatives of 9/11 victims -- have come out decrying the ads as insensitive. Get […]

Super Tuesday

I had no problem voting early Tuesday afternoon using the new touch screen machines. I talked with the poll workers, and my precinct was one of several across the county that had problems with the new machines.

Running for Senate in a red state

Daschle told state chamber of commerce representatives meeting in the South Dakota capital that he is satisfied with […]

Is Bush in trouble?

Much has been made in the media the past few days of this poll which shows both John Kerry and John Edwards leading President Bush by double digits in a hypothetical general election matchup. After nearly two months of free anti-Bush campaign ads masquerading as a Democrat primary, this is no surprise. I don't think […]

Think this might be relevant?

The Alabama National Guard base commander who Democrats have cited as an authority on "Bush never showed up" claim, suffers from Alzheimer's. Retired Brig. Gen. William Turnipseed, the 187th's Tactical Reconnaissance Group's former commander, recanted his statement that he couldn't remember if Bush reported for duty, now saying his memory is faulty because he's in […]

Senate Democrats have revealed the party affiliations of these two types of people. A whistleblower is always a Democrat and a thief is always a Republican. And Democrats accuse Republicans of always seeing things in black and white.

Politics and history

Last weekend I finally got around to seeing "The Pianist." The movie is the story of Polish Jewish concert pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman and how he survived World War II through luck and the help of friends and other people who risked their lives to save him from the concentration camps. There are several scenes in […]
