EDIT: News with updates already diaried here. Didn't search thoroughly enough. Read on and flame on if you want :p.

I must say I'm a little surprised to not read one word about the ongoing investigation surround Congressman Weiner on this site. I certainly understand the desire to move on as there certainly is other news and topics of import to discuss. But nothing on the FP. Nothing on the rec list? Nothing in the recent diaries list? Really? This has moved from a story about what we can all probably agree were awful choices that at the end of the day needed to be sorted about between Weiner and his wife, and Weiner and his consituents, to the police visiting the home of a 17 year old girl that Weiner was in contact with.

To me, the potential outrage over Obama's comments is that they appear to be elitist. In response to a question having something to do with getting support in rural communities, he answered with his personal opinion about why these communities are frustrated with government. In an effort to convey his opinion he probably could have chosen better words. Whether or not his premiss is correct could become less of an issue than his stereotypical statements. In my humble opinion, he is boiling down the motivations of voting for a large, yet diverse group, to issues he seems to dismiss as not being that important. It is a little presumptive to charactarize these voters as acting out of frustration rather than acting in their own self interests.

If I haven't pissed you off too much, hang with me a little bit longer...

Much has been made this election cycle about the conservative credentials of John McCain. The MSM seems to have trouble understanding why a noticeable percentage of conservatives are having trouble accepting his current front runner status. Conservative talk radio is being told to shut up, fall in line, support the party. Heck, I have even had a few mini-conversations with a few of you who believe McCain is a true conservative. Follow me over the fold for an illustration that I hope will help understand why I am losing sleep about this election whether or not my side wins.

I am a conservative. You can thank Bill O'Reilly for my presence on this website. I am sure you all vividly remember his attack on Chris Dodd for attending your debate citing some posts he perceived to be unseemly. I decided to check the website out for myself (you know, "You Decide"). Of course I did not find what I expected. For the most part I do not agree with the viewpoints voiced on this website, but I have found that the vast majority of the time your opinions are well thought out and respectful.
