Blogging will be light to non-existent for the next few days. I'm heading to the Wheaton Philosophy Conference. The theme is "Divine and Human Freedom."
A few items of interest before I head out the door:
Ralph Peters--author of Beyond Baghdad: Postmodern War and Peace--pens a helpful take on those missing explosives. Peters column was written before the Gertz story broke, but he still gets the issue exactly right. It's called: The Myth of the "Missing Explosives": A Shameless Lie. This should be read in conjunction with Hugh Hewitt's piece in the Weekly Standard, entitled The Commander-in-Chief, which shows how Kerry's latest attack on Bush is in reality an attack on our military and the fine men and women who are so bravely serving our country in Iraq.
Jim Gerharty, who runs one of the best political blogs of this election season--The Kerry Spot--is reporting that ABC News will be turning to him, and some other bloggers, throughout election day for analysis and commentary. This is excellent. Even though I have a great deal of frustration with the MSM, they are still indispensable and are not going away any time soon. So it's certainly exciting to see this kind of synergy and cooperation. It makes me much more likely to watch ABC News on Nov. 2. [Ed. note: Have you considered watching CBS News's coverage? Um, no.] Oh, by the way, guess who the BBC will have on during their election coverage? They will be turning to Michael Moore and George Soros, among others! (No, I didn't make that up!) The bias runs deep, doesn't it?
Finally, Joe Carter at the Evangelical Outpost has posted an indispensable primer on stem cells research and policy.
