...been the driving force behind Farm Aid for almost two decades. This year's concert [Sept. 30] is in Camden, N.J. Seems like an odd place for a Farm Aid show...
...Since moving out of the West Wing to take over State in early 2005, Rice has returned there often and has remained close to the President and First Lady. Now the President's hopes for becoming a Middle East peacemaker lie with the imperturbable and at times inflexible concert pianist and childhood championship ice skater he calls "an unsticker"--a solver of insoluble problems...

Ann Coulter had to do it by trashing 9/11 widows...
