Palin Speaks
September 3, 2008
I’m watching Sarah Palin address the Republican National Convention right now. She seemed a little nervous at first, for which I don’t blame her. I was rather impressed with her, overall. She had a few fun little digs on Obama, which is something that we were definitely expecting. I didn’t know, though, what else to expect. She seemed down to Earth and seemed to enjoy her time on stage. That’s a good thing because she has picked the wrong profession if she doesn’t like speaking in public.
All in all, I think she could have good future and would like to see her do well.

Public Property not for Public Use
August 27, 2008
I’m a little surprised at this.
Police in Denver arrested an ABC News producer today as he and a camera crew were attempting to take pictures on a public sidewalk of Democratic Senators and VIP donors leaving a private meeting at the Brown Palace Hotel.
Well, maybe I’m not too surprised.

Here is one more thing to add to the “Things You Only Do Once” list.
Photography is not a Crime!
July 16, 2008
I know how this guy feels. I have felt very uncomfortable, at times, when taking photos because I am afraid of what people are thinking of me. I always go way out of my way to make sure that it doesn’t look even remotely questionable.

News Flash: ACLU Gets One Right!
July 11, 2008
Wow. The ACLU was actually on the right side of a lawsuit!
A federal appeals court ruled Friday that officials at an Arizona school violated a 13-year-old student’s constitutional rights by subjecting her to a strip search for drugs based on a classmate’s uncorroborated accusation.
By a 6-5 decision, a full panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco reversed an earlier ruling by three divided judges from the same court.
In the latest ruling, judges said officials violated Savana Redding’s Fourth Amendment right “to be free from unreasonable search and seizure” and called the search in 2003 “grossly intrusive.” The girl was an eighth grade honor student at Safford Middle School when she was pulled from class by a vice principal who was investigating accusations that the girl was giving prescription-strength Ibuprofen pills to classmates.
