Invoke the president but fail to mention his name. Nice move.
The McCain video bio
To quote my wife, Annie:
This is the most boring thing I have ever heard.
Heavy on the POW narrative — something he consistently says he hates talking about. Except for all those times he’s spent talking about it.
Tribute? Maybe. Campaign ad? Without a doubt
The Republicans have just shown a short video about 9/11 that links those terror attacks with earlier, unrelated attacks to create an ideology — defined as Islamism — against which we are supposed to battle. The idea was to recreate the communist menace, to use the images of horror and tragedy that we all remember to scare voters into backing John McCain. They want this to be about security and the only way they can make this about physical safety is to scare us.
Keith Olberman, who I lately have found to be too partisan, calls the GOP out, saying that TV news channels would have rightly been castigated for showing so many graphic scenes from 9/11 and that the video shown by the Republicans was inappropriate. He’s right.
A view of the park
This picture doesn’t do the park justice.
First visit to Rowland Park
I’m standing at Rowland Park watching my nephew’s baseball practice and I have to say I’m impresses with facility. There is plenty of space and the fields are well groomed.
I’d like to think this covers the township’s needs — or should — for the forseeable future.
