Releasing Paris Hilton early matters. It matters precisely because it is another example of what Sen. Obama talked about earlier this week in Virginia when he warned of a “quiet riot” in black communities that could erupt much like Los Angeles erupted in riots 15 years ago after the Rodney King verdict. Obama warned: “Those…

We’ve just completed a long transition to a new, more powerful, blog tool that will allow me to do a lot of very cool things. Once I figure out how to do them. Many thanks to Jenn who has overseen and managed the whole, very challenging, very laborious process.

Fred Thompson’s stock is rising in Florida too – or so it appears. He’s tripled his support there. Good for him. Again, this isn’t about him. This is about a GOP field so weak, so without evident soul, that Fred Thompson appears to be the savior. Maybe he will be. Maybe he is the next…

A commentary I did today on Democrats, Republicans, and Jesus can be found here.

Yesterday ubermodel Giselle Bundchen spoke out against the Catholic church’s condom ban during Rio’s Fashion Week. That isn’t terribly surprising. I’m with her and we both may be with an increasing number of people inside the Vatican who are questioning the policy – possibly even the Pope. I find it horrifying that condoms that can…

He talked more about religion in the following minute than at any other point in these debates – perhaps ever publicly. Imagine what might have happened if the lightning had…

A staggering item this morning: In a poll of 1,000 respondents, 50 percent of Christian men and 20 percent of Christian women were found to be addicted to pornography. Conducted by ChristaNet.com, a popular Christian marketplace website, the poll asked visitors about their personal sexual conduct. Realizing that web polls aren’t as representative as phone…

Listening to the three Democratic evangelists, er, presidential candidates at Monday night’s Sojourners’ Faith, Values, and Poverty Conference, I couldn’t help noticing some serious mistakes they are making in trying to sound like “Godly” political leaders. They need to repent of some big mistakes. They are falling into Bush’s “pastor in chief” trap. When he…

Marc Ambinder has launched a new “reported blog” on politics. It is worth the daily read. Take, for instance, his take on Fred Thompson and his penchant for campaigning from, um, comfortable surroundings.
