You can listen to NPR at 6.66 on your AM dial :-)

"6.66" is also the interest rate for my current mortgage loan - eeeerie.

I listen (actually, he's on in the background) to Bob Brinker locally on WABC 770. I've caught myself (during the BJ/Hillary regime) yelling at him for some pro-BJ or anti-conservative approach & thereby ludicrous statement.

I think Bob is a BJ/Bob Ruben statist central control sycophant - definitely anti-Bushite. Prolly hangs with Kevin Phillips.

Conservative Historian? Kevin Phillips hasn't been a "conservative" since Nixon was president!

Can't one be a conservative historian without actually being a conservative? Could not a conservative person study the history of liberals to such degree that the conservative comes to be known as a liberal historian?

Inspite of his past associations, methinks this is the case of Phillips, a liberal who studies conservative history.

Because it is supposed to be a scandal about the Bushes.

As the election draws nearer, do not be surprised at anything you hear on either the Bush family or President Bush himself.

Be surprised only if it is the truth.

Perhaps. But more likely, the college student who wrote the headline saw that Phillips mentioned he was a Republican back in the day, and decided to call him a "conservative historian" in the headline.

they will find that this author has some kind of grudge against the Bush's.

Didn't have to look far:

My distaste for the Bushes in a mild way goes back to the Nixon years. Nixon used George Sr. for essentially social missions. When he was ambassador to the United Nations, what he did was entertain people. He belonged to a lot of clubs. There was an element of him be ing Nixon’s ambassador to club land. He was a walking preppy watchband.

Class envy.

Is there a Mrs. Phillips or has Kevin not made it to San Francisco yet?
