In a stunningly surprising display of a Democrat doing the right thing, Tom Daschle withdrew his name from consideration for Secretary of Health and Human Services. Saying "I'm sorry" had about as much an effect as if Charles Manson were to apologize. (Speaking of Charley, I used to drive by his houses, first in Vacaville, and now in Corcoran, and shout out "Hello" from the safety of the highway. I haven't been in that area for almost six years. How's that crazy Charley doing?)

President Obama is upset with the FDA over the peanut scare, because his daughter eats peanut butter. You would think that a man who now earns $400,000 per year could feed his children more nutritious food, especially since the most popular commercial peanut butters contain added hydrogenated oil(s), and sugar and/or salt, which even first born won't eat.
