But I can't pass up the chance to comment on this week's Big News from the Democratic campaign:
Democratic candidate Barack Obama has been endorsed by British parliamentarian George Galloway:
How Obama Has Given America A Reason To Believe
"...my guess is America is looking for real change, and only Barack Obama represents that."This is a major set-back for the other front-runner, Hillary Rodham Clinton, as the Galloway endorsement for Obama casts serious doubts on Clinton's anti-american credentials, to the point where she may have to write off the anti-american wing of the democratic party, and search for primary votes elsewhere.
Maybe Madame Clinton, in her desperation, would consider a change (if you'll pardon the expression) and tack a little more... to the right.
To help her get her bearings, I've assembled a little promotional video on her behalf, which I hope will, in its own modest way, manage to rescue America from a Presidency beloved by the likes of George Galloway.
I call it: "Stay to the right":

Excellent video! And no doubt a message, especially re the devil, that is actually often on Hillary's mind!
I checked out the Galloway article to see if he could remember Obama's middle name. Nope. But boy, it's good to see that maniac is a poor writer.
Sentenced to death: Afghan who dared to read about women's rights
From http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/asia/sentenced-to-death-afghan-who-dared-to-read-about-womens-rights-775972.html
A young man, a student of journalism, is sentenced to death by an Islamic court for downloading a report from the internet. The sentence is then upheld by the country's rulers. This is Afghanistan – not in Taliban times but six years after "liberation" and under the democratic rule of the West's ally Hamid Karzai.
The fate of Sayed Pervez Kambaksh has led to domestic and international protests, and deepening concern about erosion of civil liberties in Afghanistan. He was accused of blasphemy after he downloaded a report from a Farsi website which stated that Muslim fundamentalists who claimed the Koran justified the oppression of women had misrepresented the views of the prophet Mohamed.

How you can save Pervez
Sayed Pervez Kambaksh's imminent execution is an affront to civilised values. It is not, however, a foregone conclusion. If enough international pressure is brought to bear on President Karzai's government, his sentence may yet be overturned. Add your weight to the campaign by urging the Foreign Office to demand that his life be spared. Sign our e-petition at www.independent.co.uk/petition
I can't contribute directly to this discussion due to my computer freezing up when it tries to load a video; I'll write then that I would dearly love to have a full-blown dvd to share with friends of the Collected Works of Charles Henry for a retrospective at my local videoteque, i.e. a friend's place or somewhere we can sit and watch the whole thing and chat about it, copyrights be damned.
