Rhoades was facing two challengers in the upcoming election, Democrat Peter Symons Jr. and independent Dennis Baylor.
The Republican Party would have to get a court’s permission to remove Rhoades’ name from the ballot and replace him with another candidate, a Senate Republican spokesman said.
Republicans hold a 29-21 majority over Democrats in the Senate.
“We were counting on him to be re-elected. I don’t know what happens now,” Gleason said. “He’ll be missed by everyone in the Republican Party.”

Most people get thrown in jail for having a quarter ounce of pot, but litle Cindy walks?

Haider's funeral brought out men in kilts:
A flourishing trade in kilts started in the southern Austrian province of Carinthia where Dr Haider was governor after local historians claimed to have proof that Austria had the kilt 800 years before Scotland.
...the most popular item has been the Carinthian National Dress (Kärntner Anzug) which for the men comes complete with kilt and black velvet waistcoat. "The ones with little flowers stitched into them have been the most popular,” he said.
Austria’s claim to giving the world tartan is based on a fragment of material that experts say is a tartan cloth found in a peat bog not in Scotland but in Molzbichl, central Carinthia. It was dated to at least 320 years BC - over 1,600 years earl- ier than the oldest Scottish tartan which was made in 1,300 AD.

Doesn't sound to me as if they were women friendly in ancient Greece:
oh, no - i just meant the greeks didn't start it.
and they weren't that men friendly all the time, either.
Women in Ancient Greece were major power brokers in their own right, researchers have discovered, and often played key roles in running affairs of state. Until now it was thought they were treated little better than servants.
The discovery is part of an investigation by Manchester researchers into the founders of Mycenae, Europe's first great city-state and capital of King Agamemnon's domains.
'It was thought that in those days women were rated as little more than chattels in Ancient Greece,' said Professor Terry Brown, of the faculty of life sciences at Manchester University. 'Our work now suggests that notion is wrong.'
i like the idea that the original democratic society (whatever that means) wasn't as misogynistic as we think.

Homeschooling is not inherently honoring to God and does not automatically produce godly children. But it is the best avenue, channel, instrument that we have to instill in our children the proper Christ-centered education and God honoring values that God wants in our children.
By the grace of God, we can keep our children innocent in what is evil and wise in what is good. Allowing wicked, secular influences on a schedule that we set, once we believe God has prepared them to stand in the midst of the darkness of this world. Homeschooling is the best way to disciple our children in every subject of life. May God grant you the conviction to do whatever it takes to raise up boys and girls who see God's hand in all of life, in every subject they study.

"The McCains have to realize their campaign backslide and bad press has everything to do with their negative tactics, poor investments and not to any small degree, their association with thuggery, which is well known by a large number of people."
Sadly, I believe youre wrong here. Its much more likely due to the economic downturn. The negative ads probably are effective. I actually wish it was not the case. If McCain is to win - which I believe he will - it should be due to the power of conservative ideas and ideals. Not fear tactics.

Hey, what about my Catholic K-12 education? ...well, it did instill in me a fear of the God-fearing. I think God would approve of that, given what Jesus said about Pharisees ...

170 posts; you all are way off topic by now I'm sure, but I'm just blowing in to say that Jodi Kantor, one of the NYT's article's authors, so enraged me about 7 years ago for some piece about Iraq that I took the unusual step of writing to the Times a letter to the Editor that they, of course, didn't print.
I wish I could remember what Kantor said, back then. It was something really really stupid, is all I can recollect.
Definitely a Judy Miller in waiting.

yes, Terry, keep identifying with the micro-peen little boys who got stunted in their moral & emotional development somewhere before respect for women kicked in.
then look up the difference between stunted emotional development and emotional complexity that presents a challenge for expression.
As a philosophical pragmatism, let me say that god, or God or some such thing, can be a useful idea if used well. It's just another tool to help us realize the "Golden Rule" which is not a "rule" at all, but a useful idea, one of several that Jeshua Ben Joseph propounded before he put himself cross-wise with the Roman Empire.

Number one, individual responsibility, then wise tax policy, promotion of small business success, limited government, respect for state and local rights and limited unneccessary foreign entanglements. Yes, Bush had betrayed many of these.
But you already knew what conservatism is.

Yes, John McCain is a creepy old man.
His marriage is kind of a joke.
By this point in the election cycle, anyone who cares already knows this, so why bring it up.
We need to get to the elections, have Obama win, and start rebuilding this country. Pull the things out of the creek that GWB threw there in his drunken rages.

"I have found that Jehova Witnesses leave my porch immediately when I proclaim myself to be a Deist

My wife invited them in to sacrifice a chicken ... an old ploy, but it sent them scurrying off the porch and down the road to the next farm.
I have a great deal of respect for the courage and integrity of Jehovah Witnesses. Holding to their ideas and ideals put them in the concentration camps along with the Jews, Gypsies, and Poles. I also know quite a few who did prison time during 'Nam rather than accept a C.O. status. They are one group of principled folks. I would rather that the world be full of them than these contemporary fundies.

Someone at the NY Times must have decided to throw some red meat to the slavering right-wing masses by running this front-page article.
Faux News, no doubt, will run with this for days, attacking the NYT WYT's (TM) at the NY Times as being "left-wing," giving the NIT WIT's on the right-wing something to talk about besides the critical issues facing all the citizens of our nation today, while providing cover for McCain and Palin, whose crazed right-wing policies will only make things worse.
And I agree with you and Greenwald about the huge disparity between the media delving into the Clintons' private life and the free-pass given to George W. Bush. Granted, the Bush family (primarily Poppa Bush) spent a lot of time and money into burying all the things that little Georgie did during his drunken years, beginning with when he went AWOL from the Texas Air National Guard, but when reputable people (like Mrs. Knox on Dan Rather's program) came forward and confirmed some of the worst about George W. Bush, the right-wing media chose to cover-up for George W. Bush instead of digging, digging, digging.
This is why this Cindy McCain "expose" smells so much, especially with it getting front-page NY Times coverage. If one thinks about it, this is throwing red meat to the right-wingers just as if the NY Times were running some Clinton "expose" just before a major election. Anything to keep from remaining focused on the issues.
