For those not educated in recent public education, today is actually Abe Lincoln's birthday. FTR, no one called attention to yesterday's misstatement q:-)

L-E headline/story: "Poll: Georgia evangelicals, very conservatives favor Newt Gingrich * Editor’s note: The Ledger-Enquirer received this story through the Georgia Newspaper Partnership * In addition to evangelical Christians and very conservative voters, Gingrich especially appeals to rural voters, residents of north Georgia, those with less than a college education and those with incomes below $50,000." -- This last sentence demonstrates media bias to a "T". In a poll that specifies was "97% white, men and women were equally represented. About half were college graduates. 59% said their annual income was $50,000.00 or more", the reporter HAD to highlight that those who hold on tight to their Bibles and guns were Gingrich's strength as though it was a negative.

L-E headline: "PRISON SCANDAL * Investigation of Muscogee Co. Prison uncovers gross misconduct by staff, abuse and sexual relationships" -- Just proves the point that when good people are thrown into a negative environment, the negative environment will probably rub off on the good people, and not vice versa.
---
Liberal's L-E "soundoff": "For 60 years Elizabeth has been Queen of England. Wouldn’t it be nice if Obama could be president for 60 years?" -- Only if we lived in England.

Picture from the L-E:

This is from a protest of Alabama's new immigration law. Please not that even the made-to-look like individually hand-printed signs are obviously made by the same person.

L-E's "Thought for Today": “Men make history and not the other way around. In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still.” — President Harry S. Truman (1884-1972). " -- And in potUS O'Blather's case, where their is negative leadership, society disintegrates.
---
L-E's "Late laughs": "David Letterman: "NEWT GINGRICH says that people who ride on subways here in New York are the elite. I was on the subway today and one of the elites sitting next to me was smoking crack." -- What he failed to connect is that the elite crack smoker was probably his first guest of the evening.

NCLB is being relegated to "file 13". If the CRCT isn't to educators liking, then change acronyms rather than results. At least the latest acronym, "CCRPI" looks like it would be pronounced like the results of the CRCT, "Crappy".
---
L-E headline: "Commentary: Public or private, faith is what you really are - Leonard Pitts " -- Hmmm, and what Leonard Pitts is is "the Pits".
