A big orange moon glowed through the thin midnight-blue clouds on the eastern horizon this Election Eve. It was a rare day of little wind here in
Kansas........well atmospheric speaking.

For the verbal blustering continued unabated on all political levels. Christmas will be good in the domiciles of the hack speech writers this year if they get paid by the slur. In a rare chance to watch the TV today, I was agog as I watched the beating of the Republican Drum. Joeseph Goebbles was a rank amateur compared to these propagandists. Somebody jump-started the machine and it rolled into action.

I espeically resent the Rube-publican card. Out here in the center we never see Presidents or Presidential candidates unless the race is close. Id est the ruling party is in trouble they show-up on a tarmac, interpret the local cafe; anything fot the just-plain-folks-sound bite. The old 'raise yer taxes n gay marries' plays well out here where wages are far below the national norm and the populace heterosexual. I'll bet whole congregations drove to Topeka yesterday to watch the medicine show in person....Which leads me to believe that their snake-venom isn't selling too well in the Big City.

And speaking of churches......What has become of Phill Kline's Church Memo Investigation? And he has the audacity to scream about " Selling the Vote?" He likes plain honesty? Good. You sirrah, are an embarrassment to the state. A simple lackey of those who would impose their minority fondling religious beliefs on others by using any means possible. Including shootings,bombings,intimidating.....hey aren't those terrorist actions?

As for the State Board of Education I am actually kind of impressed that members of the Flat Earth Society infiltrate that august body. I can hardly wait for their version of the Spanish Inquisition...
