Madison Leonard, a wonderful young woman from our community, has just won the NATIONAL Junior Miss competition, which has been renamed the Distinguished Young Woman Award. Congratulations Madison! This 18 year old has been an active part of the Tea Party Patriots of North Idaho, speaking and singing at our events. She is deeply dedicated to the founding ideals of this country and clearly articulates her concerns about large government taking over our freedoms. Madison is outstanding and her win of this national title, and the college scholarship that comes with it, are great accomplishments.
Meanwhile, Ironman is done, Hoopfest is over and the summer moves on. Any comments, questions or ideas?
She and her parents are to be commended for her achievements and for her decision to escape Idaho and attend Pepperdine University.

I read this today: The 18-year-old kids who are fighting in Afghanistan right now were only 9 when the World Trade Center was attacked.
Can someone explain to me how the country with the largest military and (supposedly) top-notch intelligence is unable to find one guy hiding in a cave? Are we that incompetent, or is it just useful for the ruling class to keep Bin Ladin alive? Is he our Emmanuel Goldstein?

Dan, it is as you say. Obama is also promising a “workers paradise”.
