When Katherine Harris folds her Campaign Tent,

who will be left to engage the culture for Christ on the "Bringing Faith to the Public Forum" bus tour? Does this mean Sean Hannity won't tour Florida? Maybe he could bus around with Charlie Crist or something. Just doesn't grab you in the craw the same way though, does it?

- The Bene Gesserit Litany Against Fear

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."

Freedom is fragile and always presupposes risk. "The people who can destroy a thing, they control it." This axiom is as true for the reactionaries that run the US Government as it is for Al Qaeda.

Election official hammered for telling the truth.

IN FLORIDA REAL HEROES JUST CATCH HELL.

Florida's secretary of state's office disparaged Sancho's finding, demonstrating considerably more interest in propping up vendors than protecting elections.

Ask yourself why Bush suddenly found his Veto Stick and brandished it wildly at any legislation intended to stop the Dubai port deal.

assault on first amendment by guess who?

“Our first object should therefore be, to leave open to him all the avenues of truth. The most effectual hitherto found, is freedom of the press. It is therefore, the first shut up by those who fear the investigation of their actions.”

The job of the media is to report that Leader has won every battle - for a battle is won when it is reported to have been won....Sore-jaw’ed media types who are wondering “what do I have to do to please these people?”: you have to die for their sins, darlings. You have to be driven off into the wilderness with their sins on your head. Because nothing is real. Something to keep in mind as you strive for “balance.”

The Rude Pundit's Plan to Fight Back in South Dakota:

The cherry poppin' noises'll make it sound like New Year's Eve.

Nothing new or outrageous...

Gov. Jeb Bush's office is refusing to release documents or answer questions about a $400,000 tax credit awarded to MZM Inc., whose former chief executive pleaded guilty last week to bribery and illegal campaign contributions.

The former CEO, Mitchell Wade, spent $1.08 million buying a four-story office building at 601 E. Twiggs St. in downtown Tampa on May 20, 2004. That was two months after Wade met U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris and gave her $32,000 in campaign contributions from his employees. Prosecutors in the case have said Wade did not tell Harris the contributions were illegal, and she says she didn't know.

As we now know, Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia said,
'Most people already believe everyone in Congress takes bundles of cash from contractors, and may see nothing new or outrageous about a scenario in which a contractor asks Harris for favors over dinner'."

Katherine Harris is now canceling campaign stops in Southwest Florida.

"The best thing going for Harris is that most Americans already believe Washington is so corrupt that Harris hasn't done anything abnormal."




"Brandon-based political consultant Mark Proctor said he advises clients to hold court early with the media to avoid a story dragging on for a week." Of course defense attorneys typically offer contrary advice, urging their clients to dummy up quick.
