A thoughtful analysis of Biden's speech

August 28, 2008

"First, he didn't just ramble on and on and on about himself, so from that prospective it was a triumph.

OK. If we are supposed to judge him a success for his son Beau, who is on his way to serve his country in Iraq as part of the mighty Delaware National Guard, what judgment are we supposed to give for his son Hunter, who is a lobbyist and financier who has ear mark, conflict of interest and lawsuit problems?"

Is the media going to cover the protest, or join it?

August 28, 2008

"As I was filming the anti-war march outside the Democratic National Convention today, a pair of journalists in full DNC press credentials happened to wander in front of my camera.

"While private property owners watch their rights eroding throughout the state, pproperty owners in Greeley can come out of the closet. For now your private property rights are safe!

The Greeley City Council voted 5 to 1 to deny a blanket historic designation for the Cranford neighborhood that would have altered the property rights for hundreds of property owners.

Udall "publicly edits" his own Wiki

August 28, 2008

"It is widely reported and documented the Democrat Mark Udall has a paid staff member of his campaign rewriting his entry on Wikipedia to either eliminate or censor the fact Democrat Mark Udall's wife - Maggie Fox - is a lobbyist with direct connections to the League of Conservation Voters - which has been running smear campaigns against Republican Bob Schaffer.

This is the Democratic Party in the 21st Century."

Disunity over unions a good sign for some

August 28, 2008

"For Americans who rank better education as a top national priority, and for teachers who don’t walk in lockstep with unions on politics and policy, this rift can only be seen as a hopeful and welcome development.
