That song is NOT dead it's BACK
“Earlier this week, Bon Jovi and bandmate Richie Sambora recorded a version of Ben E. King's classic "Stand by Me" with Iranian superstar Andy Madadian. Their mission: to send a message of global solidarity to the people of Iran who are caught in the midst of debate and protest over the country's recent election.” Huffington Post- http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/06/28/iran-uprising-live-bloggi_n_221946.html
Because of this, that song is dead:

More curb painting
Some more photos of curb painting in Coatesville. Joe Carroll and James Grove painting. I don't know the other man's name.
Check Matt Baker's site for more photos and information about curb painting. We still have the Avenues to do.

I would argue that the Republican Party is not “on the ropes” but down for the count.

Sanford Case a New Dose of Bad News for Republicans
By JIM RUTENBERG
WASHINGTON — Republicans were just starting to breathe a little easier.

I would argue that the Republican Party is not “on the ropes” but down for the count. The Republicans used the ladder of racism to climb to the top. That ladder fell and broke into pieces. One of those pieces is the Republican Party. Some others are “Reagan Democrats” and white supremacist organizations. People like Karl Rove and AM talk radio extremists like Hal Turner and Rush Limbaugh are carrying pieces of the ladder.
It’s true that the Southern Democrats once owned that ladder, but they dropped it with the Civil Rights Act and Ronald Reagan picked it up in Philadelphia Mississippi supporting “States Rights”.
There is a difference between people who register to vote as Republicans and the Republican Party. It is more of a chasm than a difference. Most of the people in Chester County who call themselves or register as Republican are not avid fans of people like Hal Turner; an extremist talk show host who has just been arrested by Patrick J. Fitzgerald, U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Illinois. They are what as known as Eisenhower Republicans. President Obama is much more like President Eisenhower than Adlai Stevenson.

The Democratic Party has been migrating to the “center” of US politics. Eisenhower supported the “New Deal” and thought that Republicans like Barry Goldwater were extremists that could never represent Republicans. The Democratic Party has now matched the beliefs and philosophy of Eisenhower Republicans. The present Democratic Party is in general to the right of President Eisenhower's beliefs. That is the reason that Republicans here continue to flock to the Democratic Party and leave the Republican Party here in Chester County to be supported by a few insane extremists and some others who allegedly could lose big if there was a change at the county level.
I think the best description of the present state of USA politics is found here:

Look for a press conference from the Chester County District Attorney’s Office.
Something everyone knew happened but didn’t want to be reminded of. Just too horrible to contemplate. Our police, District Attorneys and press are forced to be in the middle of it.

WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?
When the Philadelphia Inquirer and Daily Local News ask for PUBLIC RECORDS they are routinely stonewalled by Walker and Lehr. Do you think that the extreme steps the Coatesville Administration takes to hide public information from the public means that what they are hiding is incriminating information?
