For the last few weeks, someone has been whining about BYU not being considered for the BCS bowls. Perhaps playing a bit tougher schedule might help.

Joe Lieberman is slated to appear on Tim Russert, Sam and Cokie and Fox News Sunday. The Democrats know that the "slime monsters" Billy Daley, Warren Christopher and his cadre of lawyers are not selling the public. Lieberman is being used by the Gore campaign to try to sway public opinion. Interestingly enough, Lieberman cannot bring himself to say that even if the manual recount shows Bush in the lead that he and Gore will not give up. The Gore folks know that if they steal this election, they have used the wrong mouthpieces in Daley and Christopher and may ...

During one of his many "reinventions" Al Gore decided to call his campaign the "Peace and Prosperity" tour, or as Rush called it the PeePee tour. Ha!!!Sitting here today, we have terrible violence erupting in the middle east, between Israel and the Palestinians, compounded by a terrorist act on a United States Navy vessel. The Dow is down nearly 12% year to date and the Nasdaq is down almost 16%. Worse, since September 1, just about the time Al Gore was announcing the PeePee tour, the Dow was at 11,400. Today it closed just short of 10,200, down nearly 11.75%. ...

Well look what has happened, his debating "skills" may ultimately be the weight that tips the scales not in his favor, but to his opponent's. Gore's real personality showed in the first debate and everyone, including his handlers told him not to let it show in the second. Bush, by pointing out early in the campaign that Gore constantly reinvents himself was right on the money! The second debate ...

Before we get even one minute of Olympic coverage by NBC, I would like to say how disappointed I will be with the coverage. This will be the "feel good", "up close and personal" Olympics, which (sorry about this ladies) will try to attract as many women watchers as possible! As a result, we will not see many boxing (if any), decathalon or any track and field events for that matter. Instead, we will get hours of the women's gymnastic events, diving (mens's and women) and any sappy human interest story you can imagine.If you want to catch any of ...

Time Warner Inc.'s cable news giant, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, has seen its ratings erode over the past year, thanks in part to a slower news cycle, and increased competition on cable and the Internet.With a 0.6 rating (equivalent to 432,000 homes), CNN plummeted 35% in primetime household delivery during 2000's second quarter compared with the same period last year (0.9/664,000), according to Nielsen Media Research.CNN also dipped 36% in total day delivery (to 253,000 homes from ...

NEW MYSTERY WITNESS COMES FORWARD, CHARGES WHITE HOUSE WITH E-MAIL COVER-UP A new insider witness emerged late last week charging the White House with the suppression of evidence concerning unproduced e-mails relating to Filegate, Chinagate, Monica Lewinsky, and other Clinton scandals, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. MORE The Declaration of the new witness is being filed under seal in the ongoing Filegate lawsuit by Judicial Watch to avoid the potential for witness intimidation.
