Stop Talking, the title of this week's Talk/Talk with Jackie Salit and Fred Newman, about the end of the pre-primary season....
Renewing Political Debate has some interesting viewpoints: “You’re weird!” said Rick Tyler (currently the press spokesman for former Speaker of the House, Newt Gingrich) to 30 Washington DC American University students who claimed they watched Sunday morning talk shows, rather than sleep, watch football, or play golf like “normal people.”
Nancy (Pelosi), Harry (Reid) and John (Conyers) Are You Awake Out There... posted on Idealthoughts--Ideas, opinions,views, humor,and analysis. There are no sacred cows except the Constitution. (worth a visit if only for the absolutely gorgeous picture) by Constitutionalist has a debate question: ..."when you took your respective oaths of office, where did it say in your oath your allegiance to the Democratic Party or your vision of that party, superseded your allegiance to the Constitution?" Idealthoughts has endorsed John Edwards.
I recommend a visit to Rock the Debates, which shows progress in their "pop quiz" to the presidential candidates: Would you be willing to debate independent candidates in the general election? Positive answers from Ron Paul, Tommy Thompson, Steve Adams, Mike Huckabee and Bill Richardson. "No" from Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, Barack Obama, and Sam Brownback. And (of course) a generous "Ambigous" from Hillary Clinton. Please see the video responses at Rock the Debates!
In Beyond The Curtains (advertised as: Here at Beyond The Curtains we take reporting entertainment news to a new level. We are the first site that brings views unique to both sexes. Basically we bring the talk men love to hear and the exclusive news ladies love to read.... I'm already intrigued! -- I give them a "A" for originality and irony!), Why Are They So Afraid of Ron Paul? Quincy Morgan has some choice words: "As I predicted last month, the only consistently antiwar candidate on the Republican side of the aisle is breaking through – but in a spectacular manner that I certainly did not foresee. Suddenly, Paul is everywhere, from the Sunday morning talk shows to the length and breadth of the blogosphere.... All this buzz, however, has generated a counter-buzz, a sinister stream of smears and jeers coming from both Right and Left. What's instructive is how similar these attacks are in their viciousness, and, in the case of the "serious" mainstream critics, their juvenility...." Oh, but there's more! See this article for a very thoughtful and thorough history of libertarianism including the unfortunate left attack.... The official left (which is really irrelevant at this point but still has an impact in the way a revered dead aunt does on the children...) has come of age in its role as as attack dogs facing anything remotely left of the Dem Party. Their MO is to cry "facist" while the country dies...

Thank you for the visit and review. I have a more pertinant question to all candidates.....
Are you familar with article V of the Constitution and the fact that the Protect America Act and Patriot Act are in direct contradiction the Ammendment IV? How then can these acts become law since the Constitutional Convention required in Article V has not been conveined?
constitutionalist -- thanks for checking in! If what you're saying is that we are losing our constitutional rights as democratic people, I would agree. What are you doing with this? Say more!
