In the middle of this political year, let's take a break and look at something really important: high speed police car chases. How can we avoid them? One solution from South Florida is shown below. This of course is a Ford Pinto, used by Old Port Cove (near West Palm Beach, FL) as a patrol …
No Matter Where Mike Huckabee Turns…
Mike Huckabee's website informs us of the following: The former governor and his wife, Janet, live in North Little Rock. North Little Rock's main mall is none other than the...McCain Mall! And you can bet that both he and Janet have spent a good deal of time there. Neither he nor the Republican Party can …
Dodging the Bullet in Palm Beach
The town of Palm Beach does indeed have a lot to be thankful for, as investment manager Robert Harvey steered them clear of one subprime meltdown: Independent money manager Robert Harvey, of Palm Beach, will receive kudos at the Town Council meeting for his vigilance about the risk to $51 million the town had invested …
That’s One Way to Achieve Change, and More Boomer Provincialism
"A Thinking Democrate" states the obvious in her reply to the story on the last Clinton-Obama debate: When Hillary was asked how did she represent change in this election, her answer was that she is a woman. Come one....give me a break. If thats all we needed in this country for change we could elect …

Ann Coulter’s Dangerous Gamble
Honestly, I thought that American conservatism had taken leave of its senses when Ann Coulter blurted out that she would vote for Hillary Clinton over John McCain. The truth is, she and other conservatives are working under grievously false assumptions: She assumes that Hillary would direct the force of anti-terrorism against Islamicist groups. But liberals …
Too Many Cooks Make a Megachurch
There's been very little said in the Evangelical press about the election of a committed Christian, Lee Myung-bak, as President of the Republic of Korea. Given our current woes with our own "Evangelical," this may be understandable. His position has caused some consternation with non-Christians in Korea (which make up 70% of the population.) But …
The Steps of Brian McLaren
This week's podcast is Every Step I Take from Brian McLaren's album Learning How To Love, which is available from Heavenly Grooves. Ken Scott, the Archivist for "Jesus Music," wondered who had ever heard of Brian McLaren. Well, many, as it turns out, for now he listed as one of Time Magazine's top 25 evangelical …
Illegal Immigrants Might Get Tax Rebates
I'm sure that many conservatives--to say nothing of Lou Dobbs--will go postal over the idea that illegal immigrants would get tax rebates, as is proposed (unintentionally?) in the House package. In their bipartisan zeal to quickly cut a deal on an economic stimulus bill, GOP lawmakers overlooked something that will certainly inflame the conservative base--illegal immigrants could …
John Edwards: The Wishful Thinking is Over
Greg Cruey was hoping for John Edwards to stick it out: If Edwards withdraws and the race becomes a two-candidate race, either Hillary or Obama will most definitely win. Personally, I think both of those candidates have electibility issues in the general election. And they look determined to cripple each other before the Democratic Convention. …

More Conservative Voting Problems in Palm Beach
I've documented some of Ann Coulter's voting problems in Palm Beach here and here. Now Rush Limbaugh can't quite get the hang of it: On his syndicated talk show this afternoon, Limbaugh said he was trying to vote in today’s primary when the screen seemed to freeze or “stick” on the list of presidential candidates. …
