Wow, an actual article from Mona Charen, wow. Of course she is not writing about Bush. Must be IR policy, only publish conservatives when they aren't for Bush. She does an interesting piece on how liberal policies have set the stage for men demanding their rights on their fetuses, wow, how radical. This one has been coming for years. Women demanding choice while denying choice to the men. Should be interesting in the future. Expect this one to be fought for years. Give this one a 2C for writer and a 1C for article. She didn't mention either party and only her first sentence actually stated it was a liberal created problem.

I really wish the IR would label Democrats when they publish them. It is never noted that Pat Williams is a staunch Democrat at the end of the article where they note his history. So now we have purple states, neither red nor blue. Since their are absolutely NO states that have a totally majority all states are really purple. But if you just want to look at the majority then they are all either red or blue. Dumb premise. Williams picks and chooses from selected polls to play to the liberals. The use of polls (often highly unbalanced depending on how the questions are asked) seem to be the news today. Polls seem to be taken to create a news story. And if polls are so great maybe we should just take polls and run the country according to the results. Give this article a 3L for writer and 3L and anti-Bush for writer.

Political cartoon and small OP-ED were some what neutral for today.
