Iowa basketball players Matt Gatens and Eric May took time out of their busy schedules Saturday to come to our hotel and meet our children.

I still can't believe my 4-year-old is going to preschool for free. I'm guessing the parents of 95 percent of the class could also afford to pay. If you want it badly enough for your child, prioritize. Turn off the TV and read. The state doesn't owe us a freebie.

Let's say I want to be protected, so I carry my handgun with me to the grocery. Suddenly shots ring out and I see people drop to the floor bloody and screaming. I pull my gun out and see six other people brandishing guns. Whom should I fire at first?

In the world we live in today it comes as no surprise that the spineless cowards at MSNBC would fire Keith Olbermann in yet another attempt to suppress the truth. Being intellectually deficient has never been more popular.
