Yes, this is a repost, but we are down to 74% and the poll will come down tomorrow. So follow the link and vote again...

The Kankakee (IL) Daily Journal is running an on-line poll regarding the extension of benefits to partners of gay and lesbian state employees in Illinois. As most of you know, Governor Blagojevich has recently extended these benefits to gay and lesbians in Illinois. By way of demographics for those of you who are not familiar with Illinois, Kankakee is in the heart of conservative, Republicans central Illinois. It is important that we stack this poll!

David Batstone has a very good summary on the "gray" rulings on the Ten Commandments display in Sojourners. I agree with his assessment.

Bob Dole's former Press Secretary has a fantastic article in today's Chicago Tribune asking the cable networks why they are obsessed with missing white females and pay no attention to missing minority women. I am attaching a link.

Okay, maybe I'm a bit overboard on the "I can't stand Ronald Reagan" scale, but I am tired of Republicans trying to put his face everywhere. So yesterday when I went to the post office and saw that he had a stamp was the last straw.

I think that everyone here at kos who still uses snail mail should stock up on the stamp that celebrates Marian Anderson and Black History month.A biography of Ms. Anderson is availbale here: http://www.afrovoices.com/anderson.html and she is much more worthy of celebrating than is Reagan.

From the Denver Post:

Results of a Denver Post poll of 400 likely district voters released Thursday puts Beauprez ahead of Thomas by six percentage points. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus four points.

The poll, conducted Oct. 25-27, shows Thomas has picked up five percentage points and Beauprez has picked up one since a Denver Post poll was taken early this month.

The new survey shows Beauprez with 46 percent, Thomas with 40 percent, American Constitution Party candidate Clyde Harkins with 3 percent and 11 percent undecided.

Bush's push in Minnesota hit an unlikely roadblock yesterday. Former senator David F. Durenberger (R), a well-respected voice on health care, penned an article in the Minneapolis Star Tribune eviscerating Bush's record on the issue and describing Kerry's plan as moving "in a long-overdue direction."

Here is an article from The Rocky Mountain News about the ad running on Denver Stations attacking my personal favorite witch. Is it over the line? Nothing is over the line when it is attacking someone who has built a career on bigotry as far as I am concerned!

The only thing I'd like to know is if the person portraying Ms. Musgrave is a drag queen!

Administration cracking down on EPA

EPA ISSUES PRE-ELECTION GAG ORDER TO STAFF
EPA Directs Employees to "Refrain From Answering" Media Inquiries
Washington, DC - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has directed to its staff to "refrain from answering" inquiries from the news media in order to "prevent EPA management from being surprised by news coverage," according to an agency memo released today by Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER).
Earlier this month, Bharat Mathur, the top EPA official for the six-state Mid-western region (covering the states of Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio and Wisconsin), issued a memo to the entire staff within the region entitled "Working with the Press." The memo, however, orders EPA not to communicate with, let alone work with, the press. Instead, all inquiries from reporters are to be routed to the EPA Office of Public Affairs.
Mathur's memo forbids employees from initiating any contact with a reporter or from responding to inquiries made by the members of the press. Even EPA employees who are designated public spokespersons on particular matters must "report their conversations" with reporters to the Office of Public Affairs.
"The ultimate sin in the Bush Administration is going off message, especially when that discordant note is authoritatively accurate," stated PEER Executive Director Jeff Ruch, whose organization is challenging Bush Administration non-disclosure policies for federal workers. "This policy shows the EPA political leadership's profound fear of the expertise of its own professional staff."
