SPECTER OF CORRUPTION
Okay, cheap pun of a headline. Nevertheless, this story in USA Today highlights how the husband of an aid to Senator Arlen Specter benefited from earmarks Specter inserted into various appropriations bills:
The Pennsylvania Republican asked for the review of legislative assistant Vicki Siegel Herson's actions after USA TODAY reported Thursday that his office inserted 13 provisions into spending bills benefiting clients of her husband, Michael Herson, a registered lobbyist.
Can’t say I have much sympathy for Specter. Just last week he was calling the cuts in President Bush’s so-called “austere” budget “scandalous.”
Looks like a poor choice of words now, eh?

MORE GASOLINE ON THE FIRE
Looking at Ann Coulter's latest column, looks like she has changed the "rag head" remark:
If you don't want to get shot by the police, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, then don't point a toy gun at them. Or, as I believe our motto should be after 9/11: Jihad monkey talks tough; jihad monkey takes the consequences. Sorry, I realize that's offensive. How about "camel jockey"? What? Now what'd I say? Boy, you tent merchants sure are touchy. Grow up, would you?
