A Maryland state senator yesterday accused U.S. Rep. Wayne T. Gilchrest's reelection campaign of appropriating his name to open a phony e-mail account and to spread allegations of sexual harassment against Gilchrest's opponent in the March 2 Republican primary.
Sen. Andrew P. Harris (R-Baltimore County) said he sent letters yesterday to the FBI and the U.S. House ethics committee calling for an investigation into an e-mail that bears Harris's name but contains information suggesting that it was composed on a computer in a congressional district office. ...
"I would not be surprised, when all is said and done, that someone connected with the congressman and his campaign is behind this," said Harris, one of three Republican lawmakers in Annapolis who have endorsed Colburn's long-shot bid to unseat Gilchrest, who is seeking his eighth term in Congress.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the
president, or that we are to stand by the president, right or wrong, is
not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the
American people."
- Teddy Roosevelt
"Government has a final responsibility for the well-being of
its citizenship. If private cooperative endeavor fails to provide work
for willing hands and relief for the unfortunate, those suffering
hardship from no fault of their own have a right to call upon the
Government for aid; and a government worthy of its name must make
fitting response."
- Franklin Delano Roosevelt
"I am not an advocate for frequent changes in laws and Constitutions, but laws must and institutions must go hand in hand with the progress of the human mind. As that becomes more developed, more enlightened, as new discoveries are made, new truths discovered and manners and opinions change, with the change of circumstances, institutions must advance also to keep pace with the times. We might as well require a man to wear still the coat which fitted him when a boy as civilized society to remain ever under the regimen of their barbarous ancestors."
- Thomas Jefferson

"All men having power ought to be distrusted to a certain

"I believe in human dignity as the source of national purpose, in human liberty as the source of national action, in the human heart as the source of national compassion, and in the human mind as the source of our invention and our ideas. It is, I believe, the faith in our fellow citizens as individuals and as people that lies at the heart of the liberal faith. For liberalism is not so much a party creed or set of fixed platform promises as it is an attitude of mind and heart, a faith in man's ability through the experiences of his reason and judgment to increase for himself and his fellow men the amount of justice and freedom and brotherhood which all human life deserves." - John F. Kennedy
"Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things. Among them are [a] few other Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or business man from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid."
- Dwight D. Eisenhower
