The PBS show NOW has an online poll asking...

Do you think Sarah Palin is qualified to serve as Vice President of the United States?

I was forwarded an email which read...

PBS has a short video on Sarah Palin on their website. Also included
is a poll that asks: Is Sarah Palin qualified to be VP?

I logged on a few minutes ago and 34% percent had voted YES, 66% NO.

Let's turn this around..... You don't have to give your name or
email address in order to vote. It's very simple.

Maybe we all can turn it back around.

PBS NOW poll

We have nothing to fear but ourselves.

Sometimes those of us who live in small towns in the middle of nowhere can feel kind of detached from what is going on in this country and then sometimes Bush's new America catches up with you in the darnedest places. One day your reading about how Abu Gonzales is threatening to investigate and crack down on journalists who talk to whistleblowers and the next thing you know a guy from Homeland Security is in your office at the local newspaper asking questions about and investigating other journalists who want to come to your town to do a public interest piece. And later on when you write about it for your newspaper you find out;

U.S. Border Patrol Assistant Chief Lonnie Schweitzer of Grand Forks said the purpose of the questioning was to verify the "legitimacy" of what Al Jazeera was reporting on. He said inquiries have been made into the movements of other foreign journalists visiting the country, including some from Canada.
