Charles Keating Stiffed Me on a Nearly $1,000 Restaurant Billnew
I had heard of Charles Keating. The man became famous as an anti-porn crusader in Cincinnati back in the '70s, hustling his version of morality against Hustler's version of what the Founding Fathers meant in the First Amendment. My knowledge of Mr. Keating didn't end there, however.

As a Working Mother of a Child with Down Syndrome, Sarah Palin Makes Me Sicknew
Palin is shamelessly using her personal life to sell her candidacy in a way that's reminiscent of just one other politician I can think of -- and that's John McCain. But at least in McCain's case, he's his own pawn, vis-a-vis his POW story. Track, Bristol, Willow, Piper, and Trig are their mother's pawns.

Democrats have been extremely slow learners. They must take a cue from the balls-out Karl Rove before the midterm elections in 2006 -- or the religious right will be ruling our lives in the Theocratic States of America.
