After receiving a mailing from Rep. Pete King (NY-3) boasting of his bipartisanship, I did some quick research at CQ. I have created a short clip explaining where King really rates. All advice/comments welcome:

Peter King (R-NY) is currently engaged in a tight battle for his seat with Dave Mejias, an excellent candidate. King, as you may know, heads the Homeland Security Committee in the House.

Through the last two decades, King was the most prominent American backer of the IRA. As a result, he always has to refer to terrorism with the prefix "Islamic" - because there are still questions about his support of IRA terrorism.

This is the first serious political video I've put together, and I'd appreciate feedback. Thanks everyone.

You can really go a long way in this life if you're willing to bully your way through while shifting your principles to suit.

So yes, this is about Peter King. Rep. King now holds the spot at the head of the Homeland Security Committee, a plum assignment for the Long Island Republican. And his leadership has paid off, as Chertoff drained funding for New York this year in favor of popcorn factories in Indiana.

There have been growing numbers of national figures speaking up and saying that their vote to authorize the Iraq War was a mistake. But where is Hillary Clinton? Read More

"America Supports You" is the sponsor of this weekend's pro-Iraq War march that just coincidentally falls on the anniversary of 9/11, a date unrelated to Iraq in any way.

The group's site allows people to post messages of support to our troops, so I've tried twice now to post. Neither has been included in the thousands of supportive messages.

The NY Times ran an odd story in the business/media section yesterday. The basic premise was that media bias exists, and has "no discernable effect." Read More

I was doing my standard Sunday afternoon reading, trying to catch up on what's happened in the past 6 years, when I came across a CNN/AP story from 1999. In it, the first President Bush offered sharp remarks about the "lack of respect" for the office.

Former President George Bush worries about Bill Clinton's apparent "lack of respect" for the presidency, but is optimistic any embarrassment to the country will be short-lived.

I recently opened a new account at Bank of America. They gave me a nice big book of check design choices, and I noticed that between the Betty Boop and Scooby Doo checks, they had several designs that incorporated either angels or Biblical quotes. But there were no checks featuring Jewish, Moslem, or even atheist designs.

Bush stated yesterday that schools should teach creationism alongside evolution. Great idea! And while we're at it, medical schools should teach that humans are filled with taffy. In history class, we could all learn about how the Egyptian pyramids were built by Jack Russell puppies. Read More

Just about everything enrages me these days. But it's only once or twice a year that something makes me sick enough to my stomach to write to the newspaper. Bush's attempts to block the release of Abu Ghraib photos plus his threats to veto the defense bill if torture was investigated pushed me over the edge. This morning, my letter was published in Newsday (New York). Read More
