[proud American in Canada]

"it from me, this (FR) is the site in the country with the most intelligent (and most humorous) members of all. It is a joy to communicate with such substantial and motivated people. This site is a genuine compliment to America."


Well said! And thank you for a terrific thread. I hope something comes of it.

and now to find my letter to WGN, buried somewhere in this massive thread! :) I'll cut and paste it to some other media outlets.

btw, I can't get anything up here other than CNN--not even Tim Russert's show. Have any of the Sunday morning talk shows brought up her comments?

Speaking of Tim Russert. He just pulled a DIRTY one in opening his show. He showed Bush's Iraq trip then showed LBJ in Vietnam 37 years earlier. THEN, he said something VERY much like, "Then just a few days later Hubert Humphrey had to deal wit the political FALLOUT from the trip"! (equating Vietnam to Iraq?)

Can you believe that? As if Bush's trip was going to be followed by negative political fallout. The outright bias is disgusting, and Russert is one of the least nasty.
