We have relatives in Wisconsin, in Juneau County in fact!

From AOL:

Wis. DA Threatens Arrest for Local Sex-Ed Teachers

(April 7) — A Wisconsin district attorney is urging schools to drop their sex-education programs, warning that the teachers involved could be arrested if they follow a new state law requiring them to instruct students on how to use condoms and other contraceptives.

In light of a letter from Juneau County District Attorney Scott Southworth, leaders at the five school districts in the county are evaluating what to do now, New Lisbon School District Superintendent Tom Andres told AOL News today.

Of course now the question is, who will protect them from the lack of common sense displayed by the local DA??

I remember where I was when JFK was assassinated. As a senior at West Aurora High school in Aurora, IL, it was right about lunch time when rumors started to swirl through the school that something had happened. Finally, it got to the point where classes were dominated by talk of the shooting and the school principal made an announcement over the PA about the shooting. By the time I got home from school the news that he was dead was everywhere.

The JFK assassination was not ‘life changing’ for me. More like a loss of innocence. In any event, I will never forget where I was and what I was doing when I first heard the news.

This is the opening sequence from the 1991 Oliver Stone film ‘JFK’. I thought it was interesting as it includes excerpts from President Eisenhower’s 1961 ‘military-industrial complex’ speech. In addition, there are a couple of excerpts from JFK speeches that show the two presidents were not that far apart ideologically.

It’s pretty obvious today that Eisenhower was absolutely correct. Too bad we failed to heed his warning. And JFK’s dream for a peaceful world, and not a ‘Pax Americana’, seem farther away than ever. You have to wonder if there would be a place in today’s GOP for Eisenhower. I don’t think so.

When I first saw this item, I thought it was crazy. Jon Stewart, the comedian, is the most trusted newsman in America.

Poll from Time Magazine on the most trustworthy news anchor.

Then I saw this episode of his show, and actually, the people got it right. An American comedian is the most trustworthy source for news in this country.
