[Translate] http://zennie2005.blogspot.com — Last Friday’s Olympics Opening Ceremony in Beijing Olympics Stadium was without a doubt the greatest event of its kind in the history of the Olympic Games. It was China’s “coming out” party, and the organizers $300 million was well-spent. The results showed in China Olympian Li Ning’s levitating speed-skater style “walk” around Olympic Stadium and his lighting of a giant torch, which in turn caused what had to be the largest fireworks display...
[Translate] On the morning of July 31st 2008, I boarded a United Airlines morning flight to Denver to attend the final (?) media walkthrough before the Democratic National Convention, this one at Invesco Field.

[Translate] UPDATE: Clinton on “Meet The Press” See Blil Clinton sleep on MLK day! Like many of you who follow politics, I saw the exchange between Fox reporter Major Garrett and Senator Hillary Clinton, where Senator Clinton said “Dr. King’s dream began to be realized when President Johnson passed the Civil Rights Act,” Mrs. Clinton said when asked about Mr. Obama’s rejoinder by Fox’s Major Garrett after her speech in Dover. “It took a president to get it done.” After some reflection, I don’t...
[Translate] Click to see the new video on Clinton’s Martin Luther King “mistake”. Wow. This is a sure sign of desparation on the part of the Hillary Clinton campaign. To attempt to mislead voters in this way, or any way, is totally wrong and dangerous to boot. What they’re thinking I don’t know. She’s also lied about his record on the Patriot Act.
