Peace in Israel

When McCain renounced Pastor John Hagee’s endorsement last week, you thought Hagee would be banished from mainstream American politics forever, right? Wrong!
Senator Joe Lieberman of Connecticut is still standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Pastor Hagee, the man who preaches Hitler was only doing God's bidding.

What was Hillary thinking?

SIOUX FALLS, South Dakota (Reuters) - Democratic presidential contender Hillary Clinton drew a sharp rebuke from front-runner Barack Obama's campaign on Friday after she mentioned Robert Kennedy's assassination while explaining why she was remaining in the race for the party's nomination.

Clinton made the remark to the editorial board of the Sioux Falls Argus-Leader newspaper, explaining that other races for the Democratic presidential nomination had lasted into the summer.

"My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it," she said.

Robert Kennedy, brother of slain U.S. President John F. Kennedy and of Sen. Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts, was assassinated during the 1968 race for the Democratic nomination.

The comment drew a sharp response from the Obama campaign.

"Senator Clinton's statement before the Argus Leader editorial board was unfortunate and has no place in this campaign," said campaign spokesman Bill Burton.

Clinton quickly apologised.

"I regret if my referencing of that moment of trauma for our entire country and particularly the Kennedy family was in any way offensive. I had no intention of that whatsoever," she said.

The REAL Indy Jones

BELOIT SWASHBUCKLER WAS THE REAL INDIANA JONES.
From: Wisconsin State Journal (Madison, WI) | Date: 1/24/2007

Everyone knows Indiana Jones, the archaeologist hero of three Oscar-winning films. But few people know that his legend began in Wisconsin.

Beloit-born Roy Chapman Andrews (1884-1960) is widely believed to be the model for Harrison Ford's most famous role. "I never had any choice of a profession," Andrews said. "I wanted to be an explorer and naturalist so passionately that anything else as a life work just never entered my mind."

Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull opens in Madison at the Marcus theatre on May 21.

The Un-United Methodists

We just returned home from the United Methodist 2008 General Conference in Fort Worth, TX and although there was some progress made, they are still closing doors for LGBT people in the church. It was a rollercoaster ride this last week and I will try to sort things out after I rest up a little and give you some of the highlights and lowlights.
