- The Sims 2 is on its way. The creators have added features that they think will make the game more fun such as enabling the Sims to remember events and to share those memories with one another: if a daughter sees a father kissing someone who isn't her mother, the daughter may choose to share that memory with Mom. Why was memory added to The Sims? For moral reasons? |

- Although I use the term "columnist" loosely. But Media Notes is always one of the least partisan and most open sources of what's going on, day to day, in the world of politics. Today's edition is no different, and Howard Dean seems to be the focus of Howard Kurtz' ire. Best part: Dean is taking some GOP fire over the remarks I reported him as making yesterday (I was one of the few reporters there), assailing the president for supporting a reduction in combat pay and limiting veterans' health benefits. |

- By Ben Fritz In separate speeches about the issue of homeland security yesterday, Democratic presidential candidates John Kerry and Dick Gephardt both engaged in unfair attacks on President Bush, with Kerry making a vicious comparison to the Taliban and Gephardt repeating a falsehood that has worked its way through the media. Speaking at Iowa State University yesterday, Kerry - a Democratic senator from Massachusetts - gave examples of claimed abuses of Americans' civil rights by the Bush administration and then said the following: "A country where you are visited by the authorities for thinking or voicing an unpopular idea smacks more of the Taliban than Thomas Jefferson." The alleged abuses he cited, however, didn't involve the oppression of women, enforcement of a legal code based on fundamentalist religious views, physical abuse, or any of the other horrific practices for which the Taliban was known. The comparison is not a reasonable point of argument, but a cheap attack designed to create irrational associations between President Bush and Attorney General John Ashcroft (whom Kerry frequently criticized in his speech) and the Taliban. |
