An important article about polls and reporting on American popular sentiment about withdrawal from Iraq from the media's highly-respected trade journal Editor & Publisher in Nation section today...
Adding articles from a new source today -- The New Standard, an online newspaper that is reader-supported. What intrigued me more than its populist take is that they seem to be rigorous about posting links to background info -- a nice touch for any fact-addicts out there. TNS will now appear in the 'frequently cited' links at the bottom of the page.

.......... - I posted this link yesterday, but didn't have a chance to go through it until later [it's not a quickie!]. This is an important, thorough and thoughtful review of how sales taxes are put to work state-by-state and category-by-category across the country. It's an eye-opener. While a couple of things they propose might be taxed made my blood boil, you will be surprised by some of the things that are NOT currently taxed in New Jersey. Overall, a valuable contribution to the current debate about resolving the perpetual budget crisis. -- Dan
