Justin Katz suggest the APB on guy from NC is a case of Find a White Guy. His previous comments have been noticed as having a distinct Find an Arab guy flavor. HELLO MCFLY!

Avoiding Middle Eastern Description? Now
Avoiding Middle Eastern Description?
Now Instapundit is noting how hard everyone is trying to avoid the description of the assailants in the DC Burbs as Middle Eastern. Why would that be? Maybe because the witnesses aren’t claiming to have seen Middle Eastern men and Instapud and pals are trying to pin everything they can on Arabs.
And what the hell does Middle Eastern look like anyway?
Another interesting note on how bad Instapud wants this to be an Arab is his pointing out the Hispanic article which was posted early in the morning on the 4th while up above he mentions the specific subject being looked for today. Why would a 36 hour old news story be more reliable than the 2 hour old news story. Because he wants it to be an Arab?

All of the support coming from the wingnuts in the Christian Coalition for Israel has been quite humorous to watch. Maureen Dowd points out the weirdness here.

Tom Friedman identifies the the real problem with the Democrats. The Democrats seem paralyzed in fear of a man who couldn’t win the plurality of votes in the Presidential race. Instead of being against his energy plan, why not present an alternative that shows how beholden he is to energy interests. Why not make the case for multilateralism? Why not make the case for fiscal responsibility?

Homophobic? Yes. Juvenile? Definitely
The story about Jeb making cracks about two lesbians related to a missing girl has been claimed to be evidence that Jeb is homophobic. Sure he is. Andy Sullivan claims not, but well, that is Andrew Sullvan. It is a homophobic remark. No surprise. The surprise is how juvenile the comment is. I guess the adults being back in charge means Governors get to act like 6th graders.

Redistricting Illinois Style
Illinois Issues has a good story on the impact of redistricting on the Illinois Senate. A must read primer for the election. Even Rauschenberger is seriously challenged. While I’d like to see a Dem Senate, Raurschenberger is a serious guy on budget issues and it would be a shame to lose him. Kinda check on the system kinda guy.
Same issue, has a rundown
The interesting thing is how on the defensive the ICFST is. There is virtually no mention of targeted pick ups or contested seats except for defensive slots. It would appear, from the Republican side, that reallignment is close to done and that means a strong Dem position for a while.

Instapundit thinks the Maryland/Virginia shootings are terrorism being covered up. So when you eat the crow later, how would you and Mr. Quick like to have it served?
What is it about people refusing to believe that an American is capable of such an act? This has Soldier of Fortune fruitcake written all over it. But a good white American boy couldn’t do something like this, could they? So we are going to pretend it is Arab Terrorism and dismiss the possibility that our culture could produce something like this. For a group of bloggers, who are represented by these two, who insist anti-war advocates are putting their head in the sand, I’d say they need to get their heads out of their asses.

Kit Bond did a bang up job on keeping election reform alive and eventually passing it. His requirement that first time voters show ID is reasonable and the bill starts to address the problems this country has with the infrastructure of voting.

Topinka looks to improve the tourism surrounding Cahokia. The first thing might to buy up some of the car heaps claiming to be car repair facilities.
I’m always amazed that Cahokia isn’t a national park. The State of Illinois does an adequate job, but the level of history available should be maintained by the National Park Service.

The Congressman I respect more than any other disagrees and is against war in Iraq. This is especially interesting because of Leach’s close personal relationship with HW.
