his April position
Stern is doing what the lame Burklewatch should be doing: throwing out a cornucopia of potential leads that more respectable reporters (like Dan Walters) can check out. ... If Stern's output survives without provoking a fatal lawsuit, it could start a trend. But I advise reading it immediately--go ahead, leave my blog, I'll be here all day--before the Singer letters start arriving at Denton HQ. ... 5:59 P.M. Friday, April 14, 2006 Nevada Republicans try to pressure Sen. Harry Reid on immigration by calling him a "rich Anglo"--an impressively unprincipled, offensive, and desperate move. [Also 'ironic'--ed Yes. But 'ironic' is now an unusable cliche.] ... 11:59 A.M. Walter Kirn blames Malcolm Gladwell for the Iraq War. ... Not really. But not 100% not really.
Storm spreads rain, damage across Indiana
State Police say wind and heavy rain might also have been a factor in a fatal crash in New Albany. The head-on collision killed 41-year-old Charles Ennis of New Albany. Marilyn Prince of Poseyville says she was fixing dinner when the storm was suddenly upon her. She says there are no warning sirens in the rural area, so she and her husband had no time to get to the storm cellar. The storm destroyed their house as they cowered near the refrigerator. The highest recorded wind gust was 81 mph in Greencastle. Hail more than a half-inch in diameter was reported in some areas. National Weather Service meteorologist Michael Koch says severe weather in January is rare. He says moisture from the Gulf powered last night's storm. Martinsville damage Tuesday night's unusually powerful storms ripped off part of the roof of the Morgan County courthouse in Martinsville and sheared off the tops of trees.
Give our troops funding, support

Some have also presented the alleged conduct of a couple bad apples as the norm for our military as a whole. You guys may as well throw in baby killers. These statements amount to slander because you guys are willfully and knowingly misrepresenting the true reason that they are there with malicious intent. You guys are giving aid and comfort to an enemy during a time of war. It is immoral, unpatriotic, anti-American and amounts to an act of treason.
