I know, I know. This has been a great week with amazing progress for the country. We have seen an outstanding speech from Barack Obama, a strong and wise leader who challenges us to rise above the petty silliness in politics.

However, I tend to be a petty and silly guy. Look at this product you can purchase from McCain's official site:

Pastor Warren, the host of last night's forum was just on CNN. In an interview with Rick Sanchez the pastor admitted McCain was not even at the Church for the first half hour of the event. This admission comes as a surprise to those of us who watched the event and were told many times that McCain was at the Church and in isolation.

CNN says they talked to McCain's camp and they said no one in his camp was listening. The honor system, are you kidding me?

I think it is pretty clear at this point McCain did indeed know the questions in advance.

We all remember when that crazy Al Gore claimed he invented the internet:

But it will emerge from my dialogue with the American people. I've traveled to every part of this country during the last six years. During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system.

A few weeks ago Ed Rendell made a very interesting comment to a paper here in PA. He said:

"You've got conservative whites here, and I think there are some whites who are probably not ready to vote for an African-American candidate," he said bluntly. Our eyes only met briefly, perhaps because the governor wanted to spare the only black guy in the room from feeling self-conscious for backing an obvious loser. "I believe, looking at the returns in my election, that had Lynn Swann [2006 Republican gubernatorial candidate] been the identical candidate that he was --well-spoken [note: Mr. Rendell did not call the brother "articulate"], charismatic, good-looking -- but white instead of black, instead of winning by 22 points, I would have won by 17 or so."

There isn't really much you can say about a story like this, as reported by Time

The incident seemed like so many others from this war, the kind of tragedy that has become numbingly routine amid the daily reports of violence in Iraq. On the morning of Nov. 19, 2005, a roadside bomb struck a humvee carrying Marines from Kilo Company, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marines, on a road near Haditha, a restive town in western Iraq. The bomb killed Lance Corporal Miguel (T.J.) Terrazas, 20, from El Paso, Texas. The next day a Marine communique from Camp Blue Diamond in Ramadi reported that Terrazas and 15 Iraqi civilians were killed by the blast and that "gunmen attacked the convoy with small-arms fire," prompting the Marines to return fire, killing eight insurgents and wounding one other. The Marines from Kilo Company held a memorial service for Terrazas at their camp in Haditha. They wrote messages like "T.J., you were a great friend. I'm going to miss seeing you around" on smooth stones and piled them in a funeral mound. And the war moved on.

Don't. Vietnam is known as the forgotten war. The current forgotten war is Afghanistan.

I just saw a report on CNN about soldiers who have served in Afghanistan or who are going back after Iraq tours.

Their sentiment? Everyone tells me, "Afghanistan, well at least you aren't in Iraq, you will be safe."

The Afghanistan losses are going up. Read More

To volunteer for the armed forces is not to say, "I will die on the presidents whim."

Volunteering involves a sacred contract. A man or woman will agree to sacrifice their life if necessary in the defense of the United States and its Constitution.

In return, the government will pay, feed, and clothe the volunteer. In addition, and most importantly, there is an understanding that volunteers will only be called upon to make the supreme sacrifice when it is absolutely necessary and after all other options have been exhausted. Read More

The Hill reported June 7 that Rep. Maurice Hinchey (R-N.Y.) plans to introduce legislation barring the Justice Department from spending money to arrest and prosecute medical-marijuana users. The measure would be an amendment to a pending state, science, justice and commerce appropriations bill.

I become sad and angry when I read stories like the diary posted today, Police Bust 60-Year-Old Cancer Victim: 303 lbs Medical Marijuana.

However, my sympathy for someone who openly breaks the law, even an evil law, is not that great. Do the crime, you do the time. (Of course, the charges should be reduced to represent the reality of the crime in that case.)

The bulk of my anger at the Drug War is focused on the innocents caught in the middle who have commited no crimes. Here is a story of what happened to one such innocent. Read More

HUNT: Bob, why would Senator Frist refuse an offer to break the deadlock?

NOVAK: Because the whole system (INAUDIBLE) you're not going to have -- like going to a concentration camp and picking out which people go to the death chamber. You're not going to let the Democrats do that, say, We're going to -- we're going to confirm this person, we're not going to confirm the other person. They're going to -- they're going to say that this is not the way we're going to do it. They've had all kinds of different offers of that kind.
