Victim In Fatal Car Accident Tragically Not Glenn Beck

Time for A Compromise

The country currently has its shorts in a proverbial bunch over the so-called 'Ground Zero Mosque.' The question we face is, do we demonstrate the freedom that the United States stands for and allow it to be built, or do we lower ourselves to the same intolerance that plagues much of Islam?

Putting aside the minor detail that the thing is a cultural center and not just a mosque, and that it would actually be located two blocks from Ground Zero, I would like to offer a compromise:

Do NOT allow the facility to be built, and in return the Catholic church stops building churches next to playgrounds.

A Prayer for the Stressed

Lord, grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change;
The courage to change the things I can not accept;
And the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I had to whack today because they pissed me off.

An Old Argument, Now More Timely Than Ever

This past weekend Virginia was the scene of a tragic car crash that may have national implications. The reason: An illegal immigrant was driving drunk and ran head-on into a car carrying three nuns, killing one and sending the other two to the hospital. To their credit, other members of the Benedictine Sisters are saying that the incident should NOT be used for political purposes in the debate over illegal immigration.

In any event, the tragedy calls to mind a heated argument between Bill O'Reilly and Geraldo Rivera that took place several years ago:

Escaped Killers on the Loose; Nothing to Worry About

Three convicted murders have escaped from a prison in Arizona. Officials have identified the escapees as Tracy Province, 42; Daniel Renwick, 36; and John McCluskey, 45. At one point the trio hijacked a truck and forced the driver to take them to Flagstaff.

State officials say there is no need for the public to be alarmed, however. None of the escapees is an illegal immigrant.
