Actually, this is a real sad story and a horrible tragedy, but I can't help but wonder...

Will the Bakers now form an organization to ban/outlaw pools?

Sad, but true, more children die each year in pool accidents than by handgun accidents, but nobody gives a hoot.

From HCI to PCI, here we come!

That's the saddest thing I've heard in a long time.  Ever since the Gulf War I've had a lot of respect for James Baker.  As Secretarys of State go, he makes Powell look like a buffoon.

Yes, the same James Baker that the GOP sent down to Florida 2 years ago to get GWB's butt out of the sling and into Washington.  Yes, Mr. Baker seems to be able to "fix" alot of problems.  One of Reagan's best!!!

I think you need to retool this entire post.

James Baker = good guy.

James Brady = sorry puppet of lunatic wife Sarah Brady.
