This NYT story is about a driving holiday in the southwest corner of South Dakota. But I use it mostly to spin some stories of my own.

An honest bureaucrat in the U.S. federal government got demoted by the Bush administration after complaining some politically-minded officials in his department pressured him to play down police racial profiling statistics.

This was sent to me by a friend who may have recognized some of himself in the article -- although if the truth be told, there's definitely some of me in it too. :)
