Here’s another adventure in what may become a regular feature, “Debunk the Statistical
Conclusions”. This time it’s a survey about Catholic voting preferences.

Dubious Support
I don’t think John Kerry is likely to brag about support from the King
of Sleaze and his minions. Who would? Perhaps Larry
Flynt.

Pro-Eugenics Candidate Running for Congress Again
A Republican candidate for Congress in 2004, repudiated by the GOP for his support of eugenics and talk of “favored races,” has again made it onto the ballot in Tennessee. But evidently not for long. James L. Hart, 62, who marched with Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke, will be the subject of a Republican Executive Committee meeting March 25 for a vote on whether he is a “bonafide Republican,” or should be stricken from the ballot in Tennessee’s Eighth Congressional District. Hart won 8,227 votes in the Republican primary election in 2004 and went on to collect 59,853 votes in the general election won by incumbent Rep. John Tanner, D-Tenn., with 173,623 votes.
This
guy won’t do anything to help the Republican party’s reputation as being the
“rich white guy” party. I’d like to see him debate Alan Keyes.
Lieutenant Kerry
A reader of mine wants to squash what he perceives as vicious lies concocted by "Bushies". To that end, here's the Snopes article on John Kerry's "fishy" medals. Snopes is a nonpartisan site whose purpose is to stop the circulation of urban legends and other misinformation.
Taking Sides
So, the bishops of Atlanta, Charlotte and Charleston have joined
the ranks of those who refuse Communion to pro-abortion Catholic public figures.
Again, I wonder aloud how many are for, against, or on the fence. I’m sure someone
in the vast horde of Catholic geeks on the Net has taken the trouble to keep a tally.
I suppose I might have to get off my lazy butt and do it myself. *sigh*
