Editorial: Legislative probes a waste of Kansas resources
The Kansas House committee hearings into contacts between two state senators and a state Supreme Court justice yield little new information. The panel, led by Rep. Mike O Neal, struggles as Morris Brungardt and Mor ris decline to testify. Barnett pursues a political edge for his gubernatorial bid, aiming to pressure school finance decisions. Democrats lament the waste of money as Republicans score political points, with ethics questions likely unresolved.

Coulter Attacks Widows Draw Bipartisan Condemnation
Leonard Pitts Jr, Miami Herald columnist, notes Ann Coulter’s scathing attack on four women who lost husbands in 9/11. He cites Hillary Clinton and George Pataki condemning her, contrasts conservative respect for pundits with Coulter’s vilification, and argues such rhetoric harms national discourse.
