Shire Network News is back and this week we continue with Part 2 of our interview with journalist Bill Bishop, author of "The Big Sort: Why the Clustering of Like-Minded America Is Tearing Us Apart".  He says America is increasingly divided, not just politically, but by basic, fundamental world views.

You can find his book at Amazon: The Big Sort: Why the Clustering of Like-Minded America Is Tearing Us Apart.

In blog news this week we look at the use of sniffer dogs in the UK. Guess which religion has a problem with sniffer dogs. I don't know, they had the cutest beagle at JFK. Adorable.

For more Latin Mottos for Obama, head over to IMAO. And I will apologise for my merciless massacre of the Latin. Sorry.

For the full comedy video from Canada, head over to YouTube. Beware.... there be bad language there!

This week's new boy is Peter Glover. You can find his blog and other work here. Say hello and tell us what you think in the comments.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: freedom, justice, honor, duty, mercy, hope.
~ Sir Winston Churchill
Battles are won by slaughter and maneuver. The greater the general, the more he contributes in maneuver, the less he demands in slaughter.
~ Sir Winston Churchill
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
