1) My personal “endorsements” for Michigan voters
2) Ditto Illinois
3) Six blogs and one dozen political links
These three posts will take me a lot of time, and I also have to submit a grad. school application by this weekend, so I don’t expect to post much of anything else.
… Read the restI got an email from Michael at i-magery.com several days ago. We’ve begun corresponding, and I’ve enjoyed his blog more than any other pro-Bush site I’ve come across.
His original email wasn’t short (and my response downright long-winded), so I’m posting the guts of our correspondence here:

THE FLINT JOURNAL PRESIDENTIAL ENDORSEMENT
The Flint Journal endorsed Kerry, which is good, although they’ve written the wimpiest nomination I’ve ever read for any candidate in any periodical.
First, they outline Bush’s achievements, with some qualifications… their praise touches upon the ousting of the Taliban, No Child Left Behind, the introduction of Homeland Security, and one of the most incomprehensive paragraphs I’ve ever encountered in a newspaper, regarding the war in Iraq:

It’s been a couple days, and I’m afraid it’s going to be a few more: I’m back at the hospital, 40 hours per week as of tomorrow.
More on that later.
I don’t have the time tonight to read/research political stuff (my “Pyramid politics” thing will have to wait), but I’ll open a couple cans of worms for chewing in the meantime.
