Until next time, Im still your Newsman in Washington. ............................................... CIA AND FBI PLAY THE BLAME GAME Jamie Dettmer reveals that the fabled Clinton "war room," with its alert media reflexes and craftiness in unleashing quick ripostes to potentially damaging stories, had nothing on these spooks and G-men! http://www.insightmag.com/news/255121.html ............................................... DOLLARS AND SENSE Sean Paige writes that having blundered once already with a Susan B. Anthony dollar coin that confused people by looking and feeling too much like a quarter, the folks in Washington seem to have produced yet another dollar coin that hasn't caught on with anyone other than coin collectors. http://www.insightmag.com/news/255106.html ............................................... TAXPAYERS GETTING DRILLED ON FLORIDA LEASE DEAL Sean Paige has discovered that environmental groups are purring like kittens (kittens that ate the canary) after the Bush administration agreed to a $235 million taxpayer buyback of gas and mineral leases on public lands in Florida, where the president's brother, Jeb Bush, just happens to be governor. http://www.insightmag.com/news/255105.html ======================================== Liberals & Homosexuals Conspire to Subvert Seminaries Liberals who blame celibacy for the Catholic Church's pedophilia scandals are missing the real cause: seminaries that actively encourage homosexuality, moral laxity, and theological dissent all in the name of post-Vatican II "renewal."

If this was what CEDAW really was about, we all would applaud it. But it's not. http://www.insightmag.com/news/255108.html ............................................... PRO&CON: IS THE NEA FAIR TO ITS RELIGIOUS MEMBERS? http://www.insightmag.com/news/255099.html BOB CHASE SAYS YES: The record shows that NEA treats all teachers both union and nonunion with respect.

In May, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission determined that the National Education Association systematically discriminates against teachers who have a religious objection to joining or supporting that teachers union.
