McCain Cancels Interview with Larry King on CNN
Good! I found Cambell Brown to be particularly rude and dismissive about the lovely Sarah, which is saying a lot in this current environment of highly biased media coverage. The McCain camp did as well and canceled tonights interview with Larry King.
To bring a little clarity to the issue from the Columbia Encyclopedia: Congress was entrusted with organizing, arming, and disciplining the militia, but the appointment of officers and the training of the militia were reserved to the states. Further provisions were made in the Second Amendment. In peacetime the National Guard is placed under state jurisdiction and can be used by governors to quell local disturbances, as in Newark and Detroit riots in 1967, and to help in times of local disasters, such as floods and hurricanes.
On a happier note, MSNBC has professionals in the chairs today.
