Whenever I hear a man
apologize for telling the truth because some idiotic group puts pressure on
him, I want to vomit.
But I won’t be retching today

Paratroopers mistakenly land at prisonCANON CITY, Colo. -- A unit of 25 military paratroopers landed inside the perimeter of a state prison, but not to quell a riot or attempt some movie-script breakout. They just goofed. The paratroopers, armed with exercise rifles that shoot rubber bullets, landed in a corn field outside the Fremont Correctional Institute early Thursday, Colorado Department of Corrections spokeswoman Katherine Sanguinetti said. Guards escorted them off the grounds with no violence, she told the Rocky Mountain News. Sanguinetti said she did not know which military unit was involved. She said an investigation is under way but it appears guards handled the inadvertent intrusion correctly. The newspaper said the Army and Air Force denied knowledge of the episode. The Colorado National Guard did not return a call seeking comment.

American Grit: We can't fire the president right now, so we're waiting it out

 As I watched the news conference, it occurred to me that one of the things that might leave people feeling somewhat disoriented is the president's seemingly effortless high spirits. He's in a good mood. There was the usual teasing, the partly aggressive, partly joshing humor, the certitude. He doesn't seem to be suffering, which is jarring. Presidents in great enterprises that are going badly suffer: Lincoln, LBJ with his head in his hands. Why doesn't Mr. Bush?

into disarray this week, kicked off by the news it had raised a scant $24
million so far. Mark these money woes down to any number of problems, but don't
entirely discount the McCain-Feingold effect.

Corporate Diversity Training
by

on Sat 14 Jul 2007 12:04 PM EDT
If prostitution is the world's oldest profession, then corporate diversity training has to rank as one of the nastiest as well as newest. And it's considerably less honest. At least with a prostitute, a customer usually knows what he's getting in advance. A diversity trainer, on the other hand, is full of surprises -- at least for unsuspecting white employees. And they're not very pleasant surprises at that.
