New Jersey Drops the Torch
Senator
Torricelli of New Jersey has finally realized that being crooked, and being
caught at it, really impairs one's re-election chances. And so, he has dropped

The Faces of Reason
Since the Al Qaeda attack on America last year, there has been a
xenophobic cry of, "Why don't the Muslims in this country speak up?" Well, on
the Curtis and Kuby program on MSNBC the other day, America was treated to four

demands. Three of them had been falsely detained in Florida on suspicion of
terrorism, and the other was their lawyer. The only un-American thing said was,
"We have no intention of suing." Click here for more.
He's a Psycho, Not a Terrorist
Members of the media and their pundit buddies have been rather sloppy

Americans this month than Al-Qaeda and Saddam Hussein put together, and that he
has parents fearing for the safety of their kids during school hours. But that
doesn't make him a terrorist. Click here to find
out why.
