Bush wrongly appeals to Vatican

More on the separation of Church and State: According to a NY Times article, Bush requested help from the Vatican to have American Bishops speak out more on political issues. You know, I would almost like to see it happen then have the church’s tax exempt status yanked out from under them! The lesson would be learned quickly then about the history separation of church and state in the United States.

Great piece by Friedman in today’s NY Times urging Israel to take the higher ground and move quickly and totally out of the Gaza Strip. I agree with Friedman that it would be one way to get public opinion to be more positive for the Israelis.

A New York Times editorial covers a topic near and dear to my heart: the safety of electronic voting. They compare the lack of rules, regulation and testing to the well-oiled machine of testing slot machines by the Nevada Gaming Commission.
