Swimsuit Censorship Changes

According to media reports, the Kirkwood, Missouri librarian is upset that Sports Illustrated decided to withhold its annual swimsuit edition from schools and libraries. SI believed it was inappropriate for children.

How times have changed. When I was in high school, the librarian kept the issue in the back room. Otherwise pictures would be ripped out and stolen. (Imagine that.)

Has censorship occurred? Seems to me that SI was showing a bit -- albeit a miniscule amount -- of responsibility.

The Republican Dark Horse for President

The conservatives are between a rock and a hard place in this election. The truly conservative Republicans can't get elected and the Republicans who can get elected aren't truly conservative. This fact is mentioned by Doug Patton in an intriguing article. He suggests the best candidate is Fred Dalton Thompson, currently an actor playing the DA on Law and Order. Thompson has been a real DA and a real U.S. Senator. Hmmm...an interesting thought...

I know, it's a rude question to ask "How ignorant are you?" But can you name every one of the Ten Commandments? Only 60% of Americans can name five. Ignorance of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism cripples the ability to understand world events.

Dred Scott Case Reveals the Weakness of the Supreme Court

 Today is the 150th anniversary of the Supreme Court decision in the Dred Scott case. Scott was a slave who had lived in a free state. He sued for freedom in St. Louis Circuit Court, arguing that living in the free territory made him a free man.

After an eleven year legal battle, the Supreme Court denied his claim on the grounds he was not a citizen. The court also ruled Congress had no authority to outlaw slavery in federal territory.

The case is considered the worst decision ever rendered by the Supreme Court. It was an important event leading to the Civil War.

The case should always remind us that Supreme Court Justices are human beings who can make incorrect and damaging decisions. And it reminds not to trust the Court to settle polarizing social issues.

What Kind of Conservative?

Fiscal conservative? Social conservative? How about Family-First Conservative? The Evangelical Outpost has posted a manifesto. Though it doesn't exhaust the principles of my conservatism, it certainly captures my beliefs about family.
