Have the “Hate Bush” people stopped listening?
I just posted the following comment on CNN.com: I think this quote from a previous comment shows something very clearly: “‘I just want to close my eyes and ears until he is out of office.’ Posted By Jared … : September 6, 2007 6:43 pm” It seems that some folks need this war to fail….
Institutions of Freedom
I just read an outstanding article by Alan Keyes at renewamerica.us.

Is McCain going to drop out of the race?
Now that would be an interesting development if McCain dropped out because he couldn’t raise enough money to keep running! I haven’t decided who to vote for yet. I’ve got my eye on Mike Huckabee; I am curious about Fred Thompson; I am not sure about Mitt Romney; and I am also interested in Sam…
