An Amish drive by shooting
I am really starting to feel sorry for New Jersey people.
They get rid of McGreevey...and who do they get??
Jon "let's tax them to death" Corzine..
Now..they get to choose between a corrupt Dem, Menendez...or an IDIOT rep, Kean!
There needs to be a coup in that state!! LOL
Small town America -- the Right Way -- Well, almost.
The not-so-big oil patch town I'm in just had their high school homecoming parade as they have every year. Wound down from the vicinity of the HS past our office down a state highway to downtown. High school, middle school bands, floats, clubs and youth groups in pickups and trailers. The street was lined with lots of spectators and the homecoming candidates rode in open convertibles provided by the local car dealerships. One difference from past years. The predominant candidates were Latinos, the majority of the kids in the parade were minorities and the predominant language from the spectators was Spanish. The changing face of America is not limited to California as we all know.
They couldn't go to Baghdad then do to the UN mandate. Why does no one remember that?
I know you didn't mean any harm, but that joke is kind of not funny now, given the recent circumstances.
Budget Deficit Drops Nearly By Half
Interesting news out on the Budget deficit (the annual short fall of revenues to costs of running the government). Apparently the economy is so hot it nearly cut the deficit in half from the projection back in February:
The federal budget estimate for the fiscal year just completed dropped to $250 billion, congressional estimators said Friday, as the economy continues to fuel impressive tax revenues.
The improving deficit picture _ Bush predicted a $423 billion deficit in his February budget _ has been driven by better-than-expected tax receipts, especially from corporate profits, CBO said.
So our deficits are dropping like rocks, taxes are low, unemployment is low [down to 4.6%], inflation is low and the DOW is at all time highs. And the Democrats want to change the direction of the country
.
Yeah, right.

Stephen Jones Demands I pull the Jordan Edmund Story
I got this email yesterday:
Dear William Kerr and Passionate America:
Please be advised that I represent Jordan Edmund. It is our understanding that you and Passionate American are identifying Mr. Edmund with certain Instant Messages ("IMs"). You have indicated that ABC News mistakenly published these alleged Ims and that you should not have been able to obtain this information. Whether this is true or not is beside the point. Without any foundation or legal permission, you are stating that our client is the person associated with the Ims. Neither ABC News nor Brian Ross have been error free in their reporting in the past. You should not assume that they are correct now. Like all individuals and institutions, they occasionally make mistakes. Therefore, I respectfully demand that you cease any further efforts to identify our client with these alleged Ims and cease publishing such information on Passionate America. Neither you nor Passionate American is authorized to use any photograph of him, his name or his personal information. You should consult with an attorney who is experienced in civil and criminal liability regarding the internet. If you are correct that ABC News should not have released the alleged AOL screen name and that ABC News has risked civil and criminal liability because of the unauthorized release, then your republication of the unauthorized release likewise exposes you to possible liability.
Sincerely,
Stephen Jones

So I have contacted some of the people I have met in the past few days for advice. My view on this is I have already published the story many people have put this on their websites also. Much of the main stream media has put the story out. The cat is out of the bag. Is Stephen Jones going to send these emails out to thousands of people? I believe I have done nothing wrong legally, until I hear different from people smarter than me I am going to treat this as a threat and leave everything on the website. I could use your help; do you know anyone that can help me? Send me an email.
