Waukesha Carnival

by thoughtfulconservative

Well, I had the carnival written and ready to post and somehow lost most of it. I’m tired and going to bed, which means this week’s carnival will probably go the way of last week’s, because I’ve got a class to prepare for, Blog ‘n’ Grog and choir practice, this week.

Vote tomorrow [today]

by thoughtfulconservative

I’m endorsing and voting for Rose Fernandez. James Wigderson has some background.

“Justice Dept. defending Bush secrets”

by thoughtfulconservative

From msdnc.com

Despite President Barack Obama’s vow to open government more than ever, the Justice Department is defending Bush administration decisions to keep secret many documents about domestic wiretapping, data collection on travelers and U.S. citizens, and interrogation of suspected terrorists.

Hmmm. I wonder why. No, really, I do. Do any of my left-of-center friends want to take a shot?
