Kansas Education [1] has a post promoting a new report about early childhood education issued by the Flint Hills Center for Public Policy. An excerpt: "As appealing as the logic of universal pre-K may be, there's a final reason to cast a critical eye on it: putting all or even a majority of very young children into government-run programs threatens the balance of responsibilities among important institutions such as family, religion, business, and government. Some level of government is required, but too much distorts a society." The post is here: Plato's Republic on the Plains [2].
The Kansas Trunkline [3] wonders Where in the World is Kathleen Sebelius? [4] and How far left is Kathleen Sebelius on the Holcomb Power Plant issue?
[5]
The Kenig Konnection [6] reports updates in the second and third district congressional races in Kansas: 2nd, 3rd District Updates [7].
At The Kansas Republican [8], Wyatt comments on the controversy surrounding Kansas Governor Kathleen and her church: Bishops cut Sebelius off at the Knees [9]. But in Dan Glickman: Boyda, Moore, You're Wrong on Colombia [10], I must disagree with Wild Bill when he states "[former Kansas congressman and Secretary of Agriculture] Glickman knows a thing or two about good agriculture policy." The best policy is, of course, no policy.
The Kansas Meadowlark [11] has been hard at work again. He reports on the formation of a Kansas political action committee headed by Scott Allegrucci, a benefactor of political patronage in the past: New Kansas 527 PAC: GPACE Action [12]. The Meadowlark notes a little about Scott's mother, but it is his father who Kansans should keep in mind. See The Ethics Case Against Justice Donald L. Allegrucci [13] and The Wrong Canon; The Wrong Allegrucci [14].
Other Meadowlark articles of note include District Court Nominating Commission Works as Designed: 3 of 3 nominees are Democrats in a county with 21% Democrats [15] and Friend of Gov. Kathleen Sebelius? Did you get to fly the State of Kansas Executive Aircraft to the NCAA basketball tournament in San Antonio? [16].
The Quiet Conservative [17] comments upon Governor Kathleen Sebelius's veto of CARA, The Comprehensive Abortion Reform Act: The Forgotten Veto [18].
The Boondoggler at the Wichita 259 Truth [19] blog has a nice article commenting on my recent appearance before the Wichita public school board of education. Wichita School Board Information Management [20].
