John Edwards' wife Elizabeth had another theory to explain Lynne Cheney's reaction. "I think that it indicates a certain degree of shame with respect to her daughter's sexual preferences," Edwards said in an ABC radio interview. But there's no evidence that the Cheneys have treated their daughter with shame. After the vice-presidential debate, Mary and Heather both went up on stage with the rest of the family while the TV cameras were still rolling. Later Kerry said that he had meant to hail the Cheneys as an example of "the way strong families deal with this...
...long foreseen, but when it finally happened, it still seemed spooky. The FDA last week approved an implantable microchip for medical uses. When activated by a handheld scanner, the tiny VeriChip emits, via radio signal, an ID number that can be linked to a patient's medical records. Critics see Big Brother. Enthusiasts say ambulance crews and ER doctors will be able to access such critical data as medications and drug allergies, even if a patient is unconscious. Future versions may have sensors to read vital signs like pulse, temperature and blood sugar...
...Roman Catholic Church and other Christian churches exceeds 90%. That's the strategy deployed this season by Focus on the Family, the conservative group run by James Dobson, to try to sway the Hispanic vote for George Bush.

It outraged many moralists, infuriated not a few scientists who questioned its reliability and was boon to radio comedians who found that Kinsey's name had become and acceptable synonym for sex. One spinster snapped back at Kinsey that his elaborate study only confirmed what she had known all along--that "the male population is a herd of prancing, leering goats." More serious critics took issue...
...Saturday, Bush himself devoted part of his radio address to wedge issues, smacking Kerry for voting against bills proscribing partial-birth abortion and against the Defense of Marriage Act, which banned federal recognition of same-sex marriages but otherwise left the matter to the states. Kerry says he voted against the abortion bills because they didn't contain sufficient protections for a mother's health. He now agrees with the marriage act's provisions, but he has said he voted against it because he didn't want to support "gay bashing...
