The House Oversight Committee released a report saying that e-mail records are missing for 51 of the 88 White House officials who had electronic message accounts with the Republican National Committee. And: The Bush administration may have committed “extensive” violations of a law requiring that certain records be preserved, said the committee’s Democratic chairman, adding…

Billy Graham was preached in front of 210 million people. It is impossible to wrap our heads around that. How many stadiums is that? He was the master of that medium. Who will be the master of the multimedia Internet realm? Any ideas?

Ruth Graham was buried in a simple casket made by a now-deceased murderer from a Louisiana prison. Try that one on for size. Shortly before he died, convicted murderer Richard Liggett was asked to make two of the simple plywood coffins he meticulously crafted for fellow prisoners. Except the caskets would be for Billy and…

Fascinating little thing. One can find virtually anything on YouTube, right? Here, for instance, making ice cream with liquid nitrogen:Nearly 30,000 people have watched that one. When I enter “mac ads” there are 2,920 different offerings. But you know what I can’t find? I can’t find any of the video of Ruth Graham’s memorial service.…

“End of construction…thank you for your patience.” That was Ruth Graham’s proposed epitaph. At least it was at the end of her memoirs. Perhaps it has changed now. We will soon find out because her earthly end has been reached. Now that the end has come she would, I think, ask people to skip the…

His name is Aidan David Kuo. I fell in love with the story of a 7th Century Irish saint named Aidan of Lindesfarne before we knew whether Livvy was a boy or a girl. It was said of Aidan: …he exhorted all he met “whether rich or poor, if unbelievers, to embrace the mystery of…

Tony Blair’s speech on “Public Life” yesterday is being called the “feral beast” speech because of a specific use of the term to the media’s pack mentality in the vicious 24-hour news cycle. That is not the heart and soul of the speech. Ironically the coverage of the speech itself proves Blair’s point – look…

[Disclaimer – there are the fuzzy thoughts of a father with a four-day-old child.] Compassionate conservatism is dead. It died from neglect – Bush’s crust-less Wonder bread domestic agenda (to put it nicely) – and deception – Bush’s claims that much was happening when little was – and most of all from lack of heart…

A reporter emailed asking my opinion on some conversation Paris Hilton had with Barbara Walters. Being in the midst of baby bliss, I don’t really know much about it other than that it was about God. I’m reprinting a post from May 2….back to baby…I’ll be back blogging as normal tomorrow Paris is going to…

This morning my wife Kim gave birth to a 9 lb., 5 oz. boy. He is 21 1/2 inches long and at the first gulp of air took the opportunity to scream at the top of his lungs – it was an impressive and sustained show. We aren’t quite sure about the name just yet…
