I spoke to my friend Beth Rickey late last Friday afternoon Eastern time. She was a true American heroine. Don't ever let it be said that conservatives won't stand up and eject haters from their midst. In the fight against David Duke, Beth Rickey did just that. Blessings to her. R.I.P.

UPDATE: I hope I am now abusing my prerogatives here, but this ran at 5 a.m. and might not have been seen by as many as I would have liked, so I am promoting it to this space and also adding this new link to the story from her hometown paper in Lafayette, LA. It quotes several of my other old friends from LA political days, and broadens the perspective to explain that Beth did far more for conservatives than merely her fight against Duke. It adds to the story in a very useful way.
