    Here’s a really stupid one “Ethics Commission Decides Not To Fine Kline.”

    That one is straight out of a Cap-Journal article in which Kline was unanimously cleared of any ethical wrongdoing whatsoever, and even then the media hatemongers tried to make it appear that the Ethics Commission had gone soft on him.

    Which brings me to my suggested headline: “Kansas media leads way to Fourth Reich, gassing of evangelicals.”

    CAPNAMERICA NAILED FOR BLATANT HYPOCRISY

    I thought that it was open season on conservatives and fundamentalist Christians, said an obviously confused Capn. I didn’t think calling people and groups names was really judging. Oh well, like I always tell everyone; “Do as I say, not as I do”.
