quadafi raged on for 95 minutes and 8 seconds, a diatribe against the u.n. from a jumble of handwritten notes and waving a copy of the u.n. charter and pretending to rip it up. it should not be called a security council. and he made no mention of the lockerde by scotland plane. and who called him? somebody by the name of lee harvey and jack ruby called lee harvey. whyle did he kill him? mystified the u.n. and the white house i t wouldn t try to begin to explain the actions today. the speech from the libyan dictator was weird. really weird.at he called for the u.n. headquarters to be relocated to libya so that he could avoid jet lag, but remarkably, this was not even the weirdest part of quadafi s visit to the united states. the weirdest part was his attempts to find somewhere to pitch his tent literally. he liked to travel with a tent that we set up wherever he is going and not talking about a small camping tent, a big structure to hang out with entourage and

that was the scene in kansas after resounding victory for abortion rights at the polls. kansans voted overwhelmingly to protect the right to an abortion in the constitution. not only was the result surprising in a state s conservative as kansas but, the margin wasn t even close. kansas voters rejected the anti-abortion measure by nearly 20 points and what s remarkable about the outcome is that kansas republicans did everything they possibly could to stack the deck in their favor. for starters, they scheduled the vote during a typically low turnout august primary instead of during the general election in november, because yesterday s primary focused mostly republican candidates running against each other and would presumably attract mostly republican voters. they made the language of the ballot measures so dense and confusing that the normal person would be hard-pressed to decipher at first glance what s a yes or a no vote even meant. republican groups even blasted out a barra
