Demo's
From the PatriotPost:
“The Democratic Congress has done virtually nothing except to try (and fail) to pass measures to cripple the war effort and to hamstring efforts to surveil terrorists. Voters have noticed. The current Congress is the most unpopular in the history of polling. Voters rate Congress lower today than in October of 2006, days before they tossed out the Republicans. Voter esteem for the Democratic Congress is not likely to be enhanced by kamikaze missions such as an effort to impeach the President and Vice President... Normal people will be angered by the frivolity, immaturity, and blatant partisanship of the efforts. The moonbats will be angry because the efforts will fail. Unfortunately for Democrats, there are many moonbats in their party, and what it takes to keep them on the reservation drives moderates off...[G]iven a choice between victory and self-inflicted defeat, Americans prefer victory. But as signs of victory in Iraq mount, the moonbats have become more strident in their demands that Democratic leaders in Congress end the war before it can be won. Democrats compound their foreign-policy follies by trying to give college-tuition breaks and driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants, and by proposing humongous tax increases. After a glimpse of Democrats in power, Republicans don’t look so bad.” —Jack Kelly

The Jena Six
Don't know how closely you have followed this story - but here is something you probably haven't heard. I know I hadn't until now. This is quoted from the Patriot Post, Edition 7-44 Brief. (See the link to their main site on the right.
“I have never before witnessed such a disgrace in professional journalism... I should know. I live in Jena [Louisiana]. My wife has taught at Jena High School for many years. And most important, I am probably the only reporter who has covered these events from the very beginning... According to the expulsion committee, the crudely constructed nooses were not aimed at black students. Instead, they were understood to be a prank by three white students aimed at their fellow white friends, members of the school rodeo team. (The students apparently got the idea from watching episodes of ‘Lonesome Dove.’) The committee further concluded that the three young teens had no knowledge that nooses symbolize the terrible legacy of the lynchings of countless blacks in American history... As with the Duke Lacrosse case, the truth about Jena will eventually be known. But the town of Jena isn’t expecting any apologies from the media. They will probably never admit their error and have already moved on to the next ‘big’ story.” —Craig Franklin, assistant editor of The Jena Times
