    That's all well and good but the truth of the matter is that Rachel Ray is a known terrorist and is hiding Osama Bin Laden: http://www.236.com/blog/w/katie_halper/rachel_ray_scarf_says_terroris_6809.php

    real simple, let's find out how many sorties Mccain engaged in as a pilot over southeast asia, make a projection of how many women and children he's responsible for "murdering" in the name of freedom or some other such distortion. This is significant. The focus has been on his hero's status as a POW. The time has come for soldiers to be responsible for their actions. Top Gun is a ludicrous fantasy; it's estimated that as many as 3 MILLION human beings were killed in the greater Mekong delta region during the war. Most by massive and largely indiscriminate aerial bombardment. Afterall, they were only "gooks", subhumans really.

    ...but I was beginning to wonder if I could vote for him again. I'm glad he finally seems to be getting his feet under him.

    Northwest University's [http://news.medill.northwestern.edu/chicago/news.aspx?id=90661 Medill Reports] has more on the anti-ethanol PR campaign, which it says is being far outspent by such pro-ethanol forces as the National Corn Growers Association and [[Archer Daniels Midland]]:

    [L]ast week the Glover Park Group, a public relations firm in Washington, staged a teleconference with reporters to disparage what it called the U.S. food-to-fuel policy. Hours later, ethanol booster Sen. Chuck Grassley, a Republican from Iowa, held a press conference on Capitol Hill with five fellow senators to “dispel myths being perpetuated by a newly emerged version of the anti-ethanol campaign." ...

    [T]he [anti-ethanol] teleconference was held on behalf of the National Restaurant Association, Earth Policy Institute, National Retail Federation, Environmental Working Group, National Chicken Council, National Council of Chain Restaurants and the National Turkey Federation.

    Meanwhile, Merritt Cluff, the co-author of a new report on the global food crisis from the United Nations' Food & Agriculture Organization [http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/7424375.stm says], "Biofuels are the largest new source of demand for agriculture and are causing higher prices."

    There's a very strange dynamic at play here. On the one hand, Hagee's over-the-top rhetoric has largely immunized him from scrutiny. It's bracketed off by the press as "religion" and therefore out of bounds for criticism, at least up to the point it violates Godwin's Law.

    What's been ignored is that this guy is not only a loon, but a real player. Senators and prime ministers have kissed his ample butt. I can't believe how many people have said "I never heard of this guy, what's the big deal?"
