Forecasting the New Senators by BooMan Mon Jan 5th, 2009 at 03:20:24 PM EST If it's hard to be an effective senator in your first term, it's even harder to be effective in your first two years. Appointed senators often find that they are not fully accepted until they have run and won a mandate from the voters. It was not until recently that first-term senators had the temerity to even speak on the Senate floor. To be successful, new senators need to establish that their word is good and to dJanuary is Poverty Awareness Month

Here is the way the Constitution works now. Roland Burris, a longtime public servant in Ilinois, will not be allowed to take his seat in the US Senate because he has been appointed by a corrupt governor in a corrupt state. No matter that the Senate has never in its history denied a seat to an senator, whether elected or appointed, and no matter that there is not a hint of scandal about Burris’ appointment. It is highly doutbful that the Senate possesses the right to deny a seat for any cause,THAT. That's what we're talking about...and HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT.
The Wall Street Journal has an interesting piece on how the Kennedy family came to embrace "abortion rights" as doctrine. While the article doesn't always note it, most* of the prominent priests mentioned therein -- such as then-Fr. Albert Jonsen, Fr. Giles Milhaven, Fr. Richard McCormick, Fr. Joseph Fuchs, Fr. Robert Drinan and Fr. John Courtney Murray -- were, sadly, Jesuits.

by Kevin McCullough Townhall.com Anyone who spends time reading message boards related to online news articles today can see things that are readily self evident. One of these self evident truths is that today’s political and theological left still very much represent the racism they did when they initiated a secret society named the Ku Klux Klan.
