Alright, that's it for me this week. See you again next time. Thanks as always for reading and clicking and reading.

Seeing the Forest: From free trade to Baltimore.

Simply Left Behind: Mike Huckabee vs. the modern world.

Fruits and Votes: The U.K. election and Duverger's Law.

Hullabaloo: The myth of black father absenteeism.

Over at my place: Will America vote for Hillary or against the GOP? Does it matter?

And coming full circle to a story I addressed last Monday in this space, yes, even Rick "man on dog" Santorum loves and accepts Bruce Jenner.

Of course Jenner is a Christian Republican, so be as cynical as you want about that one. You're probably right.
