Just a simple Cherokee trial lawyer, Barkman has been forcing his opinions on others in print since, for reasons that passeth understanding, he was an unsuccessful candidate for state representative in 2002. His philosophy: "If people had wanted me to be nice, they should've voted for me."

No, This Is Not An April Fools' Joke



The US Supreme Court has ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency must actually, you know, protect the environment. Which includes doing something about global warming. I think the significance of this decision is that it paves the way for other states besides Massachusetts to sue the Federal government to force action on pressing environmental issues. Don't hold your breath waiting for Texas, however.

I think anyone who sees school vouchers as an important issue in the upcoming Presidential election should look at supporting Tom Tancredo. Many see him as a one issue candidate, and essentially he is (immigration). However, he has a good track record and good stance on school vouchers.
