A Christian Liberal is NOT an oxymoron.

American women are making history, but not in a positive way. Life expectancy is falling:

The trend appears to be driven by increases in death from diabetes, lung cancer, emphysema and kidney failure. It reflects the long-term consequences of smoking, a habit that women took up in large numbers decades after men did, and the slowing of the historic decline in heart disease deaths.

It may also represent the leading edge of the obesity epidemic. If so, women’s life expectancy could decline broadly across the United States in coming years, ending a nearly unbroken rise that dates to the mid-1800s.

The Pennsylvania Primary happens today. The numbers will change, but the story will be the same - some will pressure Clinton to drop out and she will thumb her nose at them.

If you thought poisonous toys from China were scary, try poisonous medicine from China.

Hillary Clinton is spending more than she’s raising. Not exactly the way to run a campaign if you want to show that you can handle a budget.

Julie Nixon Obama says yes, you can; a Democrat might win in Mississippi, and Ted Stevens .

And the Abramoff ball is still bouncing - now in the Justice Department. I’m surprised. Oh yeah. That’s what I am. Surprised.
