...what she learned in church.

Yes, there's a benefit stemming from the 9/11 tragedy. Both tickets for president have agreed to suspend their campaigning today. Suggesting it's inappropriate to bicker on this day. Oh, blessed relief. Thank heavens for 9/11. Almost like Christmas. When we vow to be on our good behavior for a day. And practice the Yuletime spirit. Too bad we can't live this way daily. All 365 days of the year. Our political campaigns are far too long. Too laborious. Too devoid of focused issues. Instead, pettiness prevails. And the cult of personality, too. One of the vice presidential candidates grew up in a Pentecostal church. Where folks speak in tongues. Another name for gibberish. Words that only god is supposed to understand. By golly, little wonder that she's a politician. She practices what she learned in church. --Jim Broede
