Nevada GOP Delegate Split Spells Trouble for McCain

Two Nevada delegations are packing their bags for the Republican National Convention Sept. 1, and if the latest party ruling stands, neither of them will be seated.

A fiasco at the state convention spawned the dueling delegations -- one for John McCain and one for Ron Paul -- and their continued wrangling has exposed a split in the party that may spell trouble in a key state for the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.

Our children have access to "dangerous books!"

JoAn Karkos, age 64, checked out a copy of Robie H. Harris and Michael Emberley's It's Perfectly Normal, a lovely book about dealing with the physical and sexual aspects of puberty and adolescence, and is refusing to return it. She may face jail time.

One of the several quotes from Karkos reads, "The book subverts true liberty, hates well-ordered discipline, and wages war against peace and harmony in public and private lives of youth and children." You have to love the Catholic (and yes, she is a Catholic) attempt to redefine "liberty"; that's one battle they've been at for twenty years now, and it's just going nowhere.

And NPR was just yesterday reporting on Hillary's speech urging all her supporters to join together behind Obama, and how McCain is flogging the split between the supporters of Hillary and Obama, and how united the Republicans are, with a clip from one of his ads. Sounds like the beginnings of a case of denial here...
