| Some things are the same all over the world: people interpret the actions of others through their currently held beliefs - that is, through their paradigms. Paradigms act as filters of evidence that serve to support the paradigms… and that is why people, nations, groups etc. change their minds much less than could be considered healthy. |

| In a tactic similar to the widely condemned political technique called “push polling,” a top Hillary Clinton campaign official in New Hampshire pointedly raised Clinton political foe Senator Barack Obama’s own admissions of drug use in a way that was sure to get the issue out there to voters and the press.

| Even though I’m a Republican, I’m not a big fan of David Frum. That said, he is starting to make some sense lately about the future of the GOP. In his op-ed found in Friday’s New York Times, he sets up an interesting conversation among the three wings of the party. And what an interesting chat it is. There is a lot of meaty |

| As ridiculous as the Republicans have been with spending, we can always count on the Democrats to want to spend a little bit more. That $600-$1200 check you might have been expecting in June or July, has been delayed. Why? Senate Democrats wanted to add another $44 billion for the elderly, disabled veterans, the unemployed and “big |
