search for stories on non-excerpt required news sites

Many of my favorite sites don't require excerpting, and I try to use them a lot.

The Sacramento Bee does, but nobody else has the analysis of California State Government that they do.

The San Francisco Chronicle also does, and they are the window on soul of blue-state California. And the Chronicle is home to my favorite columnist (see my home page if you don't already know who). For all its faults, nobody's AP wire is quicker than SFGate (Well, maybe the Bakersfield Californian, but I wouldn't dream of poaching there).

Just look at that picture of Telly Savalas and you can almost hear him saying around that lolly pop... "WHO LOVES YA BAYBEE???

I know you grow weary of the jetsam and flotsam on here from time to time, but remember what Ceasar always used to say: "ILLEGITIMI NON-CARBORUNDUM!" (Translated = Don't let the bastards grind ya down!!!)
