Breaking News!

Few things mandate two blogs in one day, but I just discovered that my favorite political cartoonist, Robert Ariail, is leaving THE STATE. Apparently, he and Brad Warthen, the editorial page editor, are casualities of the economic woes of newspapers. Although, he will still be nationally syndicated, I will miss his insight of local politics. Read Brad Warthen's words about Ariail. This is certainly one change that is difficult to accept. I will be adding his new website to my favorites and suggest that you do, also.
