This is your staff announcer reminding you that Hillsdale College reaches far beyond their

campus with their teaching. Their online courses on the Constitution, the nation's history,

and exploring the work of brilliant authors are some of the most watched series created by Hillsdale

professors. And now some of those courses have been put into DVD collections so that the learning

can be shared in many more ways. These DVD collections make a great gift for family and friends.

Today at Hillsdale DVD dot com. That's Hillsdale DVD dot com.

Over the weekend you could not miss the outpouring of kind words and affection for President George

H. W. Bush. The drive by media praised Bush 41 as a symbol of decency. They praised him as an

American patriot who served his country as a war hero CIA director, vice president,

a renoldess magnus, and of course president himself. They spoke of his courage,

selflessness, his humor, his love of family, and his devotion to the country he loved.

We saw high tributes that are rarely given to any political figure or respect for the man

and a respect for his great accomplishments. And all the praise is deserved and it comes as no

surprise to anyone who knew President Bush and knows his family. He was a profoundly decent man

and his lifetime of public service speaks for itself. And it's also no surprise that the same

drive by media full of praise now has collective amnesia. They've forgotten their own

indecent and often despicable coverage of President Bush during his time in office,

but they are who they are. And when Republicans die, that's when they're good people.
