Jerry Brown is blogging

Yes, that Jerry Brown, former governor of California and Mayor of Oakland.

Political types can't seem to help themselves.
Detective Columbo once said, "I guess it's my line of work. Every time I see a body I think somebody killed it."
Likewise, politicians only see the world through political lenses.

The death of Sun Hudson - a 6-month-old with a fatal genetic disorder who was taken off life support against his mother's wishes in a Texas hospital last week - adds some depth to the emotional debate over the fate of Terri Schiavo. The MSM are hanging on every twist and turn in the Schiavo case, and protesters have descended on Florida to denounce what they call "murder."

...President Bush, who signed a bill to allow Schiavo's parents to fight for her life, is in an awkward position on this one. [Emphasis added]

I'm glad to see somebody as important as Governor Brown into blogging, but he gets beat up pretty bad in the comments.

If more politicians would try their hands at blogging they might be a little more circumspect about what they say, when they say it, and how they do their jobs.
