Son,
Your entry into the Christian Ministry has been a source of great pride and joy for me. Even given that you choose a wacky upstart like the United Methodist, or whatever you call it.

Barack, Public Funding, and My BackyardBarack Obama this week rejected public fundung for his campaign according to the Los Angeles Times. This seems like a big deal, I know, and a lot of good government analysts are saying that it is a mistake and that it could be a strong point for McCain in the gneral election It is not so much that he rejected the public financing, but that he said previously that he was committed to public financing. So he has done some backpedaling. He will certainly have to answer for that. But is the actual rejection of the public funding a big deal? I say that there will be some huffing and puffing, but ultimately it won’t be a big issue.

Tim Russert DiesShocking news. Tim Russert, the journalist of NBC and MSNBC fame has died of an apparent heart attack.
This writer has not been kind to Mr. Russert. We did not appreciate his managing of political debates. But that does not diminish our shock at the sudden and unexpected death of Mr. Russert.
Mr. Russert was at his best when moderating Meet the Press with a cadre of other journalists. He also hosted another program on cable. In this program Mr. Russert interviewed notable celebrities, politicians, and authors. This program found him in his element.
