FROM THE RIGHT
1. If FCC rules do not allow more duopolies and consolidation, stations in small to mid-sized markets won't be able to compete and local broadcasting dies.

2. Estrada was never rejected by Congress in the manner prescribed by the Constitution, but by Democrats and Republicans who think they can trash the Constitutional process if it suits them. Now, a majority of Senate means 60+. The good news, maybe that means the Senate won't do anything for a long time. Who needs new laws, they are all going to be political payoffs to the unions or AARP.

3. GWB is overspending, Republicans in Congress are overspending, and everyone wants free prescription drugs. First the baby boomers force the 60s and 70s on the world, and now they're going to make us by their meds. Screw 'em.

4. Arnold was wise to skip the debate. Nothing is revealed in debates. Politicians repeat rote answers that have no basis in their actual beliefs or plans for the state. It's a charade, and Arnold knows an act when he sees it. I hope he wins.

OK, I'm feeling a bit cynical.

Not So Fast
Michael Powell's gambit to let "Big Media" get bigger gets put
on hold. Perhaps another look is warranted.........how often do you find NOW and the NRA on the same side?

He Finally Gets the Message.....
After months and months of denying political reality and loud, hypocritical whining from his GOP supporters, Estrada finally accepts
his rejection from Congress. After unsuccessful attempts to play the race card, Orrin Hatch and gang have finally given in.

Crumbling Foundations
OK, George. Since you are no longer concerned about deficits (as your actions so clearly indicate) perhaps we should spend a few billion
at home. You can't build a 21st century economy on crumbling, mid-20th century foundations. You also can't ignore the needs of the nation. Tax cuts aren't going to build roads and bridges. Will you lead, George?

If the Shoe Fits....
Jay Leno, on the California Governor debate: "Some people are criticizing Schwarzenegger for not going. They say Arnold goes around telling people he cares, things are going to be great, forget about what he did in the 70's. Hey, it worked for Bush" ("Tonight Show").

10 COMMANDMENTS
Thou shalt not kill, a phrase that would not have ruled the day if a similar dispute arose in any number of nations. Despite the coming dirty fight of Campaign '04, Decision '04, You Decide '04 (whatever), we are still a shining example to much of the world. Regardless of the decades of idiotic "interpretation" of the establishment clause, no civil war has been sparked. People haven't been bombed at discos. The Republic survives and peace prevails. Thank God.

Speaking of the coming campaigns, I want one of
these shirts.
