Harry Reid Politicizes Dr. King Memorial Event

Seeded on Tue Apr 8, 2008 4:42 PM EDT ("The Reid Report")

LDS President Gordon B. Hinckley dies at age 97

We will miss you, President Hinckley. You emulated Christlike attributes in all that you did, and we know that now you have a different work to do in a different place. May the spirit world love you as much as the physical world, is my prayer.

Thompson out, Huckabee next?

Tue Jan 22, 2008 7:06 PM EST

Fred Thompson's finally out of the race, we learned today, so my next question is: when is Mike Huckabee going to follow the lead? His money seems to be running as dry as usual, and his delegate count is in the league of politicians like John Edwards.

Comments & Feedback

Thanks Megan to Pagan for likewise being firm against disrespect and religious bigotry. I have compassion for people who feel that they have suffered injustice, but I also don't believe that spreading misconceptions about things people consider sacred is a good way of getting your feelings out.

TJ, I reported Sandie and Gwenny for their disrespect. It is against Newsvine Code of Honor to behave the way they have. Good for you for standing up for what you believe in.
