"We hold these truths to be self-evident," wrote Jefferson in the final draft, "that all men are created equal." A million politicians and high school orators have reverently intoned...

Longstreet ************************************* It bothers me when I hear politicians, and former politicians, call for a lasting peace in the Middle East… especially a Southern politician, a Baptist, at that, and… a former President of the US. I am referring, among others, to former...

Not only are the freemasons a bit weird, but they’re also a bit racist. The admittance of Victor Marshall, a 26-year-old African American, to a chapter in Atlanta last year caused many Georgian freemasons to seek to revoke the charter of Marshall’s chapter, sparking a legal battle over equality that points to the pure malarky of a “post-racial” world. The Guardian: There is...

Family law attorneys have to have thick skins. Think about it – in virtually every case, one of the parties doesn't like you very much. In contested cases, it can sometimes reach the level of hatred. Recall that I was called "the devil" by a party in open court several years ago. However, in light of what has happened to Randall Kessler , I don't feel too bad. In case you aren't familiar...

After my previous posts on Georgia , it seems only fair to note the bank closings in Illinois today. There have been 13 bank closings posted (as of right now, about 6:50pm) in the state of Illinois since last March. That alone is significant—but, even more interesting, six of them occurred today. This exceeds the previous record for a state, Georgia's five last week . Three (in Elizabeth, Oregon,...
