Too Stupid to Know They Are Racists
Former
House Speaker Newt Gingrich equated bilingual education Saturday with
"the
language of living in a ghetto" and mocked requirements that ballots be
printed in multiple languages.
Gingrich made the comments in a speech to the National Federation of Republican
Women.
I'm sure those
Republican women gave Newt a standing ovation.
Going, Going, Gonzales
For all the explanations Attorney General Alberto Gonzales has given about his role in the firing of eight U.S. prosecutors, he hasn't yet given one under oath to Congress. For the White House, it suddenly seems that day can't come fast enough.

Barbara Bush has also been an enthusiastic backer of her son's {Neil Bush]
business. In 2004, the former first lady was guest of honor at an Oklahoma
fundraiser with proceeds earmarked for purchase of COWs, the Los Angeles Times
reported. And in 2005, Mrs. Bush donated an undisclosed sum to a Hurricane
Katrina fund with the proviso it be used to buy COWs for Houston schools flooded
with Katrina evacuees.
Some educators, though, find COWs gimmicky and question the cost, $3,800 a year
to lease or $6,800 to own.
"You can't even get basics like paper and scissors and we went out and bought
them," one middle-school teacher, Jon Dansby, told the Los Angeles Times. "I
just see red."

Fox
News, conservative talk-show host Sean Hannity sought to put Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice at ease so he could find out what she was up to.
"Today Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is with us. How are you?" he asked.
Rice, having just returned from a disastrous, waste-of-time trip to the Middle
East, responded: "Hi, Sean, I'm fine. How are you?"
"I'm good. We always appreciate you being here.
Now, what do you do in the off-season when football's not going on? Do you like
baseball?"

A painting depicts an asteroid slamming into the Yucatan Peninsula approximately 65 million years ago. The asteroid wiped out the dinosaurs and paved the way for mammals to dominate, but it took another 10 to 15 million years for the ancestors of today's mammals to really take over, scientists said on Wednesday.
