The mission here is not accomplished. What we need is Presidential leadership, not just another speech filled with empty promises. Our recovery's success, struggle, or failure will be intimately woven into Bush’s legacy, for better or worse. What Americans think about America is deeply affected by how this country rises to national challenges, none more significant than post-Katrina New Orleans. Fully restoring New Orleans to its formerly unique and permanent place in American culture is this nation's greatest domestic challenge. Bush’s leadership, or lack thereof, of our country through this difficult time will serve as an American character lesson for future generations.
[T]he paper's executive editor, Mark Woodward, is married to Bridget Woodward, a staffer for Collins in the Senator's Bangor district office.

In this MSNBC clip Tucker Carlson describes how he and a friend attacked a guy who hit on him in a restroom in Georgetown. Meanwhile Joe Scarborough and some other guy giggle away like it's the funniest thing they've heard in weeks. We have a name for beating up gay people for their sexuality Tucker, it's called a hate crime and I'm kind of amazed you can just describe one on TV without consequences. Note that, whatever the initial action was, Carlson describes leaving and then returning with a friend which rules out self-defense and makes it pretty unambiguous that he was beating up the guy because he was gay.
