I can’t agree with the headline (“No new twists in second Barbour-Eaves debate”) in this article on the Mississippi Governor’s race, where Republican Haley Barbour is running for reelection against Democrat John Arthur Eaves Jr.. John Edwards and Rudy Giuliani’s names are cropping up

Barbour criticized Eaves for giving money to Democratic presidential hopefuls, including John Edwards and John Kerry. Eaves said that Barbour is friends with Republican presidential hopeful Rudy Giuliani, “who is for taking our guns away, for abortion rights, for gay marriage.”

Well, thank goodness Eaves pointed out that Barbour is friends with Giuliani! The voters of Mississippi, armed with this new information, now can conclude that obviously, because they are friends, the two men must have the same opinions. Everyone knows that you only become friends with people who agree with you on every issue!
