Did I miss something? Is today Friday?
I must have not been paying attention, I sure missed the start of this
discussion!
And I won't get started on stopping federal gas taxes for the summer, just
to encourage Americans to consume more gasoline!
But John, how are you feeling? Are you better? I hope so!

I have had a total falling out with television news media. They are all
full of crap. I have had a bit of a problem lately even with Lou Dobbs.
They all are puppets who dance to the Corporate Pied Piper because guess
who pays their salaries?? Big Corporate America.! So, whatever they say,
it's tainted by the corporate influence.
For the most part, Lou Dobbs sticks pretty much on domestic issues, but
what has been bugging me is he will not even mention the words -
"Islamization of America". But then neither will anyone else. There was
one reporter on MSNBC who responded bluntly to a question about Islam -
I am afraid to discuss it, you don't know when some readical Muslim will
come at you from a crowd with a gun of knife, or will try and blow you
up or otherwise kill us. - me and my family."
I could write a small book on this subject.

under Bush senior. Funniest comment I've ever heard was Bill O'Rielly saying
that the good economic times under Clinton were thanks to Bush senior-yeah,
right. Jeff
