Republican National Convention
I disagree. She is showing that any person can understand terrorism. If she can, then certainly ger husband can. Takes away the "you have to be smart" to be President angle.

Republican National Convention
Since there wasn't formal scoring in the debates and Bush has been working the past four years, I would say he won the debates. Debates are not Dubya's strength but all he has to do this time is look Presidential and keep it to a draw. As long as he doesn't say something monumentally stupid, he'll be fine. I think the Bsh campaign has to be wary of the poll numbers. I believe Kerry has the same type of support that Clinton II showed. Asked who they are voting for, people where reluctant, dare I say embarrassed, to admit voting for Clinton so they said Dole. Then a landslide came. Same thing with Kerry, I believe a decent percentage of respondents are saying Bush but will pull Kerry. Here's a peek at Presidential Campaign politics. The local Dem party here is getting together a big ass pile of cash to woo Kerry to make a sacrificial campaign stop in South Texas. This is an area that Kerry will win with 80-85% of the vote. But how meaningless is that. Texas is solidly behind our favorite son, Dubya. But some would think it will remind Kerry he does have support in Texas, just in case. Dubya made a campaign stop last time around, promised stuff for the border region and never got around to it, maybe next term

Illinois Senate Election
I view the Senate in a different light than congress and look more to the person's intellect and character than their politics. The Senate should be the one area we debate high ideals. There is a difference between the House and Senate. Most of the Republicans I have voted for have been Senate candidates. The difference between Hillary dropping into NY and Keyes is the Clintons needed to move out of their present house and find new dwellings. Of course politics playes a roll.

Alan Keyes meltdown
What has happened to Keyes since the days he was the GOP wonderkid who was going to lead the way for more minority involvement in the GOP? His rebuttal to one of Clinton's State of the Union speeches was great. Now he's psycho from what I'm reading.

READ THIS POST-NEW SOXTALK POSTING POLICY
Actually you are not. All businesses have the right and I would add responsibility to remove unruly patrons. If you walked into McDonalds and started screaming obcenities and claimed 1st Amendment protection, how long do you think they will let you stay? Freedom of speech does not mean you can spout whatever you want in any forum you want. With thatr right comes the responsibility of knowing when and where it is appropriate. The classic example is your right to free sppech does not allow you to scream Fire! in a crowded theater.

Hmmm, I think you do like it sensored, it always the brightness to be automatically dimmed or brightened depending on ambiant light levels Some people do not like censorship on their TV.

That turned from a drama to a greek tragedy about 6-8 weeks ago. Now I believe its a comedy.

Alan Keyes Goes Nuts on FOX Chicago
I get the impression they were not in this to win but to wound Obama. I could almost understand Hillary's moving to NY since her husband's job had forced her to relocate to Washington DC for 8 years. And as soon as his contract ran out they moved to NY.

Best TV Drama
About six months ago when one of the stations had a marathon I watched a couple episodes and got interested. Now I'm scanning the channels and loving Bravo for carrying the reruns.

US History Teacher Owned Us
My daughter's Texas History teacher started class last year by telling the students that the administration complained about the noise coming from their classroom and that one student was going to be suspended for two days. This is a Gifted and Talented class with all high achievers who being suspended was a major scare. Since he didn't know who was the problem they were going to pick cards to determine who was going to be punished. The poor girl who ultimately was selected was in tears crying when he explained this was to teach them about a key event in Texas History the Black Bean Epsiode. Good thing the loser was his daughter.

Republican National Convention
All politicans are cut from the same cloth and will follow the same predictable paths. I laugh when they argue both sides on subsequent years. Viet Nam doesn't matter then it does depending on what your candidate did.
