More Pro-Gun Antics In Arkansas
2009-02-16 16:36:00
This news story tells us that Arkansas state rep Beverly Pyle introduced a bill recently that would allow churches to decide whether or not guns would be allowed on their premises?Under current Arkansas law, holders of concealed weapons permits can take their guns anywhere they want except bars and houses of worship. A bill in the state Senate would let churches decide for themselves whether weapons should be allowed."I believe it would disturb the sanctity and tranquility of church" said Pastor John Phillips, a bill opponent who was shot twice in the back as he finished a service 23 years ago. If a church opts out, "Do you want ushers to stop you at the door and frisk you?"The bill's supporters say the issue isn't gun rights but a constitutionally protected right for churches to set their own rules. Opponents say worshippers should be allowed to pray without worrying whether the person next to them is armed.?Grant Exton, the executive director of the Arkansas Concealed Carry Asso...
Arkansas Dems Say USA ?Founded By Slaveowners? ? Were ALL Founders ?Slaveow

Senate Watch: Arkansas Capsule
2009-01-22 06:24:00
State OverviewThough native son Bill Clinton carried the Arkansas' six electoral votes twice, Republicans have now won the state three presidential cycles in a row and it was one of the few places where John McCain out-performed George W. Bush. Despite the increasingly red hue at the federal level, Democrats continue to dominate state and local politics in Arkansas. Democrats currently control all of the statewide elected offices and hold comfortable majorities in both houses of the state legislature. In 2008, first term Senator Mark Pryor ran without Republican opposition, cruising to an easy victory. Amazingly enough, all four members of the House delegation--where Democrats currently have a 3-1 edge--went without major party opposition in 2008 as well.Incumbent: Blanche Lincoln (D)After serving two terms in the House, Blanche Lincoln was first elected to the Senate in 1998, replacing retiring Democrat Dale Bumpers. There she has crafted a moderate record, though perhaps sligh...

Bill Gwatney, Arkansas Democratic Party Chairman Killed Before DNC Conventi
2008-08-14 05:58:00
In a totally sad story of the work of a sick mind, Arkansas Democratic Party Chairman Bill Gwatney was killed by an obviously mentally deranged Timothy Dale Johnson, who walked in a shot him for no apparent reason. other than Timothy Dale Johnson had lost his job.Gwatney was to appear at the Democratic National Convention on August 23rd to August 29th. I did not have the pleasure of knowing Mr. Gwatney but am saddened by the loss as I very will could have met him at the DNC Convention. Moreover, it brings into sharp focus how dangerous our society has become, especially to those who represent a political party during a poor economy.

Toddlers Can No Longer Marry In Arkansas
2008-04-04 07:02:00
Yes, you read that correctly. The state of Arkansas has just repealed a law that mistakenly allowed anyone under the age of 18, even toddlers, to marry with parental permission. Legislators meant to instate a law that made 18 the minimum age. Instead, they removed the age limit completely. D'oh! Representative Will Bond, a Democrat, was the sponsor of the bungled law and he just asked his colleagues to "throw me a rope and bail me out here." It's called proofreading, Will! I'm sure you have someone on staff who can do that for you. According to Rep. Bond, no children have married in Arkansas as a result of this mistake. He also added, "First cousins, of course, are still fair game." I'm kidding! He didn't say that. I love Arkansas, really. Home of the Boggy Creek creature.

It’s college picking time for San Lorenzo Valley senior track star Taylor Johnson, and that means the 17-year-old middle distance runner has done some serious deliberating.Johnson generated national attention with her four-minute, 57.01-mile time last season, one of the top times in California. Since then, her sights have been set on a major university with a strong track program. She maxed out her official college visits (five) and made another unofficial visit, narrowing her choices to two powerful track and field schools — University of Arkansas and Arizona State University.For the rest of the article from the Press Banner check out the following link:•SLV runner commits to University of Arkansas

From Arkansas, with Love
2008-03-12 02:47:00
This morning Kevin loaded suitcases, snacks, Nick, a scatterbrained wife, and two large travel mugs of coffee into the car. We were off on a whirlwind visit to my inlaws in Arkansas.It took 6 hours of Barney and Sesame Street to get here, but we survived, and baby is now blissfully asleep. My husband was born and raised here. I have particular affection for the town because it is where I discovered that Piggly Wiggly is a real grocery store (I thought it was a made up name when I saw Fried Green Tomatoes back in college).No cooking to report today, but it was a ridiculous eating day, so I thought I'd offer up the absurdity of my ways for a few laughs. For those of you interested in such things, this was inspired by the blog option on the food and drink forum egullet, where people chronicle every morsel of food and drink that passes their palates for at least a week or two at a time. I won't make you suffer through a fortnight of my food ways, just one day of my unenlightened condu...

Super Tuesday Answers Nothing for Democrats: Both Going to Denver?
2008-02-06 08:30:00
The early states were supposed to filter out candidates and give us our nominees. After the early states, Super Tuesday, was supposed to be the deciding factor. We go on to March 4th and the battle goes on. Barack Obama won a majority of the states in Tuesday?s contests but it looks like the delegates could be split right down the middle. Obama won Alabama, Alaska, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, and Utah. Senator Clinton won her adopted home state of New York but probably not by as much as she hoped. Clinton won a big victory in California but as many as one-third of the votes had been cast weeks prior to Tuesday. Barack Obama was certainly hurt by early voting which did not reflect his recent surge and Senator Clinton did very well among women in California. Obama?s advantage with men in California was not as large as Clinton?s advantage with women in that state. New Jersey was als...
