She is an intelligent, articulate, passionate, gracious lady. High energy level. Very attractive in person, though we had to behave ourselves as her parents were also at the event. :) I had the pleasure of speaking with MKH at a recent Tea Party here in Raleigh a month or so ago.

Hmmm, I may have to fight you for her (or arm wrestle you, or pitch pennies, or rock, paper, scissors, or Trivia Pursuit)!!! BT: Jimmy T sends.

I kid myself, the third branch is staffed by the first two. Given unchecked power, they will invariably grab all they can. My guess is they will over-reach, and the next congress may take some of that power away. But not all of it. And by such steps are our freedoms siphoned away. - Max It is about power, true, and the real concern is now that there is a majority in both houses of Congress and the Executive is of the same party, will the third branch be able to serve as a check?
