The FBI and Capitol Police continue to investigate the circumstances which surround the tragic automobile accident that took the lives of Justices Alito, Roberts, Scalia, and Thomas when the Toyota Prius, in which they were carpooling, was T-boned by the SUV, driven by Justice Kennedy, on<br />
their way to my inauguration. Adding further to the tragedy was Justice Kennedy’s impalement on the SUV’s steering column when the vehicles’ airbag failed to deploy. Justice Kennedy was not wearing his seat belt, a clear violation of law. The departments of Justice and Transportation are also investigating the auto manufacturers.</span></font></strong></span></p>
<p><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px" /></font></strong></span><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px">As I promised in my campaign, we will always look for new and progressive ways forward and I believe that Bill and Hillary Clinton, serving as the first husband and wife team on the Court, demonstrates my commitment to that promise. </span></font></strong></span></p>
<p><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px">I’m sure that Justices Souter, Ginsberg, Stevens, and Breyer, join their new associates, John Edwards, Dennis Kucinich, and Al Franken in wishing the Clintons well as Co-Chiefs.</span></font></strong></span></p>
<p><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px" /></font></strong></span><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px">My fellow comrades, I have been informed by the NSA, as authorized by FISA, and other intelligence gathering agencies of the government, that there is considerable telephone and internet traffic suggesting a possible conspiracy in the death of the Supremes. It is imperative that this cease now. The executive orders which I issued to the FCC, under the “Fairness Doctrine” to halt “Talk Radio’s” sedition could be extended to individuals if we don’t get refocused on our two global emergencies immediately.</span></font></strong></span></p>
<p><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px">I</span></font></strong></span><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px"> outlined in my inaugural address that my administration will focus on two issues and two issues only: global warming and full global employment. I am again grateful to Congress and to Speaker Pelosi for shutting off debate and passing the enabling legislation quickly so that we can begin tomorrow morning.</span></font></strong></span></p>
<p><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px" /></font></strong></span><span class="text"><strong><font size="3"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 19px">The “Full Employment” treaty with the United Nations, which the Senate ratified yesterday, coupled with congressional passage of the “Full Employment” bill will once and for all bring peace and prosperity to the entire globe. Key components of the treaty and legislation consist of: elimination of the minimum wage, establishment of a 40% flat incometax, without exemptions, for all non-government employees and the establishment of a non-partisan commission to set government employee’s pay rates. Replacing the private sector minimum wage is a maximum wage that will be initially set at $11.00 per hour. This rate will be locked in until we reach full global employment.</span></font></strong></span></p>

Administered by the GSA, Government Services Administration, the program will turn the entire global economy into a giant construction contractor. In keeping with its long standing policies of private sector involvement, the GSA is reviewing lists of “Affirmative Action” qualified construction management firms. One will be selected to be the “global program director.”</span></font></strong></span></p>

My GW Czar, Al Gore, will advise the GPD and their UN counterparts on the surface and sub-surface projects which will be required.</p>
<p>Czar Gore has informed me that along with the cuts in fossil fuel use and rapid construction of wind and solar projects, coupled with the behemoth projects to cap continental and sub-ocean volcanoes, &#8220;we can whip this global warming thing by 2020.&#8221;</p>
<p>Comrades, my predecessor, George W. Bush warned you that the war on terrorism would be long. Well, the war on global warming may be long too. But with brothers and sisters, of all faiths, busy shoveling rocks into volcanoes, isn’t it great to know that there’s no time for killing. I really feel good vibrations here.</p>
<p>I know that you’ll sleep better tonight knowing that we’re here looking out for you.</p>
<p>I would ask for your consideration on one matter. Due to the security concerns of the office that I hold, I need to be exempted from this fuel reduction thing. I need Air Force One and my bullet proof customized Navigator.</p>
<p>Peace Be Upon You</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><font size="3">Kenneth Wells, while president of Freedoms Foundation, presented the foundation’s National Leadership Award, at a ceremony in Valley Forge, to Kenneth W. McFarland.  His introduction of McFarland, at the presentation, was short and correct &#8220;I shall identify our Freedom Leadership Award winner with a simple, unqualified statement - he is the greatest public speaker in the United States.&#8221;<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">I was fortunate enough to hear Dr McFarland speak before he passed away in 1985.  He was the greatest.  His usual themes were: patriotism, belief in God or a higher power, individual responsibility as the price for liberty, and the importance of teaching traditional American values in education.  And he practiced what he preached during his tenure as the superintendent of Topeka, Kansas schools.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">Dr. McFarland’s family and educational background was very similar to my favorite uncle’s;  including three degrees, in education, followed by the privilege of using Doctor before one’s name.  The dissimilarities between Dr. McFarland and my Dr. Uncle, at their deaths, was, however, stark.  At his death, one year after retiring from a major university, my uncle professed to be an atheist, a socialist, and a believer in a socialist one world system.<br />
</font><font size="3">How could two men, similarly born, raised and educated end at opposite philosophical poles?  I think the answer is peer pressure from a now entrenched “education union” that has adopted a Stalinist / Fascist methodology to intellectual pursuit.  Kill it or shout it down.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">I loved my uncle, but he was truly best described by Dr. McFarland as “a fellow who obviously had been educated beyond his intellect.”  Education is now in the hands of those of my uncle’s ilk.  God help us!<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><font size="3">Is Fidel Castro in &#8216;grave&#8217; condition? Is he dead? Is he in a coma? Would you trust Granma to tell you the truth? <strong><em><span lang="EN">Granma</span></em></strong><span lang="EN"> is the widely read official newspaper of the Central Committee of the Cuban Communist Party.<br />
</span></font><span lang="EN"><font size="3">Cuban media is controlled by the Cuban government through anti-government propaganda laws. The national </font><a title="Newspapers" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newspapers"><font size="3">newspapers</font></a><font size="3"> of </font><a title="Cuba" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuba"><font size="3">Cuba</font></a><font size="3"> are not directly published by the government. They are published by various Cuban political organizations, notably the Cuban Communist Party, which is the only legal party in Cuba. </font></span><a name="National_newspapers"></a><br />
<font size="3">The 1<sup>st</sup> Amendment of the US Constitution states: “Congress shall make no law&#8230;abridging the freedom of speech or of the press…”  It would seem that law in Cuba and law in the United States are very much at odds.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">Hold on; maybe not. The ill named “fairness doctrine”, a regulation issued by the Federal Radio Commission and played with by its successor, the Federal Communications Commission, since 1969, attempts to control speech over the licensed airwaves through its bureaucracy and the Federal Courts. This regulation begs the constitutional question of whether radio, television and the internet are part of “The Press.” This writer’s opinion is that, if sent to the Supreme Court today, justices Roberts, Thomas, Scalia, and Alito, would say yea and Justices Souter, Breyer, Stevens, and Ginsburg would say nay and Justice Kennedy’s “swing vote” would decide whether you can listen to Boortz, Limbaugh and Hannity within sixty days of an election.  The current makeup of the court makes it easy to understand why lefty democrats don’t want and fight, lie, cheat, and steals to keep strict constructionist jurist off the Supreme Court.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">As reported by FMQB’s Website:<br />
</font><font size="3">Over the weekend, the National Conference for Media Reform was held in Memphis, TN, with a number of notable speakers on hand for the event. Rep. <strong>Dennis Kucinich </strong>(D-OH) made a surprise appearance at the convention to announce that he would be heading up a new House subcommittee which will focus on issues surrounding the <strong>Federal Communications Commission</strong>.<br />
</font><font size="3">The Presidential candidate said that the committee would be holding &#8220;hearings to push media reform right at the center of Washington.” The Domestic Policy Subcommittee of the House Government Reform Committee was to be officially announced this week in Washington, D.C., but Kucinich opted to make the news public early.<br />
</font><font size="3">In addition to media ownership, the committee is expected to focus its attention on issues such as net neutrality and major telecommunications mergers. Also in consideration is the &#8220;Fairness Doctrine,&#8221; which required broadcasters to present controversial topics in a fair and honest manner. It was enforced until it was eliminated in 1987. (By a Ronald Reagan Veto)<br />
</font><font size="3">Kucinich said in his speech that &#8220;We know the media has become the servant of a very narrow corporate agenda&#8221; and added &#8220;we are now in a position to move a <u>progressive</u> (ed. comment read socialist / communist) agenda to where it is visible.&#8221;<br />
</font><font size="3">Now making things visible is not the usual democrat methodology. Take exempting American Samoa from the minimum wage bill just passed in the House of Representatives.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">But hey <strong><em>Dopey Denny,</em></strong> bring that fairness doctrine garbage back out there in the daylight and see if the hue and cry from conservatives and the new alternative media doesn’t trump your intentions.  The Right will cover your lapdog main-stream mouthpieces with more lawsuits, for fairness, than the ACLU has lawyers.</font>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">Folks, this is not about Spaghetti-Os; it’s not about the USA’s relationship with the dictator of Spain from 1936 to 1975; and it’s not about some mortgage company, Gardner Franco American, in Maine, that I didn’t even know existed until I started writing this. </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">In my 62 years, I have traveled to 39 countries and have lived and worked overseas for 12 of the last 26 years. Since my return from Iraq in 2004 and relocating to Florida, I have spoken to a lot groups and clubs. Without fail, I am always asked: (1) “what was it really like in Iraq and the Middle East?” (2) “What’s your favorite place that you’ve visited?” and (3) “what’s the place you liked least?” </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"> </font></span></p>
<p></font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">There is not space here to give you the answer to number one. The answer to number two is Greece, the birthplace of Western Civilization. And the answer to number three is “if I have to pick one place as my least favorite, it would be France. It’s not that I really didn’t like France, I just can’t stand the French.” </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"> </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">This article is about the people and culture of France and the people and culture of America. </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"> </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Arial">America</span><span style="font-family: Arial"> owed a debt to France for their support of our Revolutionary War of Independence. “Political Correctness” ends here. And we repaid the debt to them by fighting three wars in their behalf and liberating their country twice. The debt is fully paid with interest. So I feel free to <u>tell it like it is</u> about the French at will. </span></font><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Arial"> </span></font></p>
<p></font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">The French, as a nation, are arrogant, lazy, liberal, immoral, cowardly, self-absorbed, prissy, hairy, and, oh did I mention, smelly little commie people. I wouldn’t drink a bottle of their Bordeaux or Perrier if I were dying of thirst. That’s called principle. </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"> </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">Fellow Americans, we’re on the slippery slope of becoming French. If you can’t take a little heat, and I mean conservatives, liberals, and libertarians alike, then you should probably quit reading right now. </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"> </font></span></p>
<p></font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">The French became the way they are because they had a revolution and were then educated to believe in and pledge allegiance to any system that would give them some of the privileges enjoyed by the aristocracy prior 1799. All the while Western European immigrants, coming to America, were self educating themselves about what was in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and taking those few privileges and building a great nation around them. </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"> </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">“Fast forward” 200 years from 1799. If you understand “fast forward” then you must know about VCR and DVD players. Is use of those “toys” a privilege of the American aristocracy? Our government must think so. It takes money from taxpayers and gives it to non-taxpaying citizens and non-citizens alike to buy these toys. This is not a myth. I’ve seen it with my own two myopic eyes. </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3">We are in a subtle revolution in America for the soul of the country and too many are sitting it out. IGM, I got mine, is the mantra of the sitters. Well, I care about my kid and grandkids. I want them and their progeny to have the opportunity to make America even better. But this takes some effort. </font></span><span style="font-family: Arial"><font size="3"> </font></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><font size="3"><font face="Arial">At your core, are you a good person or a bad person?  Western Philosophers, beginning with Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, have asked and answered this question through twenty four centuries.  And the answer is?  It matters not what others answer.  It is an individual’s question.  You look at yourself in a mirror, straight in the eyes, and ask; am I good or am I bad?  You then make your decision based on the power of your individual intellect.<br />
</font></font><font face="Arial" size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3"><font face="Arial">In America, the folkways and mores of the culture started with the philosophical premise that you are good while not ignoring the possibility that you could do bad things.  The founding document of the American Republic, the Declaration of Independence, enumerated a long list of bad things that the King of England was visiting upon his subjects.  This document was followed by a very short set of rules and covenants, the Constitution, which is the basis for the laws of the land.  The laws, as codified, were strongly influenced by Judeo Christian beliefs but also contained secular provisions based on philosophies outside theocratic thought.  The key recurring refrain throughout the founding documents is <u>individual</u> freedom and liberty.  This is why, in the Republic of the United States of America, you are free to look in the mirror and make up your own mind as to your goodness.<br />
</font></font><font face="Arial" size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3"><font face="Arial">Contrast this philosophy with those that are prevalent almost everywhere else.  You will submit to Communism, Islam, Socialism, or Fascism as your ticket to drawing your next breath and your measure of individual freedom and liberty will be smaller than two figs.<br />
</font></font><font face="Arial" size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3"><font face="Arial">So I hope that the young woman, who spit in the face of two soldiers, who had just completed a tour defending her individual freedoms sees a reflection in her mirror soon.  God knows, honey, you look like the Devil.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><font size="3">When will lawyers, academicians, democrat politicians, and the mainstream media quit perpetuating division among Americans?  African-American, German-American, Hispanic-American and on and on and on; why are we not just AMERICANS?<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">Consider two human beings arriving in a young United States of America in 1811.  The first, a Negro man kidnapped in what is now Nigeria Africa and sold to a plantation owner in Alabama; the second a Caucasian man conscripted in Prussia, what is now Germany Europe and delivered to a militia in Indiana.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">Now consider, 10 generations later, a descendent of the first man is Condoleezza Rice, Secretary of State of the USA and a descendent of the second man is John Bryant, tire salesman for Firestone.  Do John and his lineage owe <u>Reparations</u> to Condoleezza and hers?  Only in the mind of liberal educators and sleazy lawyers!<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Political pundits, left, right and center continue to blather about what the 2006 midterm elections signified.  It’s what pundits do for a living.  Meanwhile most of the American electorate has tuned out and turned off “things political” and joined the pursuit of happiness found in acquiring a PlayStation game console at twice or three times its suggested retail price.</p>
<p>Is there something to learn from this?  You bet.</p>
<p>The pundits and the major political party talking heads must have issued millions of words about the election and Sony and their downstream entrepreneurs have a dollar for every word. Why?  Because Sony understands market forces and the Democrat, Libertarian, and Republican parties do not.  Sony is supplying what the market demands and the political parties are not.</p>
<p>Two times, in recent history, a political party offered PS3 quality candidates to the voters.  In 1980/84 Ronald Reagan supplied what Americans demanded in 49 of the 50 states.  And fortunately he came with a “conservative term of office warrantee.”   In 1994 a conservative slate of legislators became the majority in congress with their “contract with America.”  Unfortunately, the contract was a short term one and that group of legislators had defective parts which have now been dispatched to the landfill.</p>
<p>Americans are demanding consistently conservative, honest, and fiscally responsible people to represent them in our Republic. Americans want representatives who never forget that the USA is a Democratic Republic and not a Democracy.  Americans want the size of their Federal government reduced and Washington’s ever increasing intrusion in their lives and businesses stopped.</p>
<p>I believe there’s another “Reagan Revolution” coming unless Adam Smith’s Invisible Hand gets amputated by some bureaucrat.  And, in your humble correspondent’s opinion, Newt Gingrich is the only potential candidate on board the revolutionary train because he never got off.  I applaud his courage.  Others may join soon.  We’ll see.

		<title>EARNEST EAGLE ON EGALITARIANISM</title>

		<description><![CDATA[EGALITARIAN
Hey Americans!  Don’t let this word confuse you.  It has nothing to do with Eagles.

<p><span class="text"><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial">Hey Americans!  Don’t let this word confuse you.  It has nothing to do with Eagles.</span></strong></span><strong><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial"></p>
<p><span class="text">I know the word sounds like some <u>philosophy</u> that my specie might embrace or a <u>political group</u> to which we might affiliate, but </span>nothing<span class="text"> could be further from the truth.</span></p>
<p><span class="text">I live under the laws of <em>Nature</em>, as do you humans.  And <em>Mother</em> tries very hard, at the beginning of our lives, to make us equal </span>under<span class="text"> her laws.  You Americans also live under a body of laws, your Constitution, which guarantees equality of opportunity in </span>your<span class="text"> society.  But nowhere, in either set of laws, are there guarantees of outcome.</span></p>
<p><span class="text">Every day I have the opportunity to fly off my nest to hunt and fish.  Guess what?  If I don’t, I don’t eat.  I really enjoy living this way.  Something about freedom and liberty, those natural individual unalienable rights, just does it for me.</span></p>
<p><span class="text">So the next time you are watching CNN (communist news network), and that Lou Dobbs fellow, while interviewing Al Franken, pauses to pontificate that America is an egalitarian society, remember, they’re both full of what I occasionally deposit on the ground under me.  </span></p>
<p><span class="text">You know, that Al Franken guy reminds me of a scruffy old hippie owl, here in our forest, who’s always flapping his left wing.</span></p>

		<title>FROM RUBE TO RUBEPUBLICAN</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><font size="3">I am trying to provoke you.  So I’ll start by quoting Webster’s - provoke - “…implies beneficially stimulating and making active” like you didn’t know the definition of the word.  And to provoke you further, rube – Webster’s “1. an awkward unsophisticated person – 2. a naive or inexperienced person.”  OK, we’re all on the same pages so far, right?<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">In 1962 I matriculated…damn, one more (Webster’s for Rio Lindans – matriculate “to enroll as a member of a body and especially of a college or university”).  I matriculated to the oldest state university in America, the University of North Carolina.  At that time, <u>I WAS A RUBE</u><strong>!</strong><br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">I was born, and lived my early life, less than 100 miles from the geographic center of the lower 48.  And even though my family and I traveled quite a lot, to places like Minnesota, Arkansas, Colorado, Missouri, and Iowa, I didn’t see an ocean until I was 16 years old.  I’ll bet everyone in Rio Linda, California has seen the Pacific Ocean.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">My “rubic credentials” hopefully established, consider the campus environment in which I found myself during the second year of John F. Kennedy’s Presidency.  Twelve percent of my fellow freshmen were graduates of Northeastern preparatory schools and 100% of the 12% were ethnically white.  Ninety eight percent of the freshman and sophomore classes of 1965/66 were males (females could only transfer to UNC–Chapel Hill after completing their underclass work at UNC-Greensboro/Women’s College).  Ninety nine plus percent of the entire student body were ethnically non-black.  Three students were ethnically black.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">Two of the three black students were friends from a summer work experience and both were much more socially sophisticated than I.  If you recall the “tag line” from the motion picture American Graffiti “where were you in 62”?  I know precisely, where I was; I was in Chapel Hill, North Carolina and in another state as well – confusion.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">Truthfully, in retrospect, I believe the swirl of new ideas and experiences surrounding me nearly drove me crazy.  I was having great difficulty finding “Value Anchors.”  I was also a scholarship (tiny) student athlete, which wasn’t an oxymoron in 1962.  My coach, bless his also born in rube central heart, encouraged me to get out, make friends, pledge a fraternity, go to church, and “focus on what your intellect tells you is the truth.”  He said “there are a lot of weirdo professors on this campus, so take everything you hear and read, with a grain of salt.”  Recall that this was 1962.  People had just started using words like weirdo.  Today, I think it would be nut job.  Also, you might be interested to know, that in 1962, UNC-Chapel Hill was aka CU (Communist University) among tobacco farming communities of central and eastern North Carolina.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">So if you’re still with me, “here’s the beef.”<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">I took coaches’ advice and did all those things he suggested.  I also became a voracious reader.  The Daily Tar Heel, the campus broadsheet, started my morning.  In that school newspaper, I read a young syndicated columnist for the first time, William Frank Buckley Jr.   I also, shortly thereafter, read his book, Man and God at Yale.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">I began forming opinions about what Buckley had to say and opinions about everything else I heard and read over the next few years, while in school; Always, as coach admonished, shaking a few grains of sodium chloride on top.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">The learning process never stops and everyone’s opinions shift over their lives within the boundaries of their core values.  But it’s the establishment of those core values in America’s youth of today that concerns me and on that subject I hold strong opinions.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">These are a few on the topic “becoming educated.”  Remember, they are just my opinions.  Also they are free to you so they may be worth exactly what you pay for them:<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">1.</font>       <font size="3">Written and spoken words are how we communicate with each other and how past generations have communicated to us over century upon century.  Please don’t bastardize language.  Words have to have meaning.<br />
</font><font size="3">2.</font>       <font size="3">Be vigilant in your acceptance of new ideas and concepts especially from academicians.  Know that public and private school faculties and administrators come from the bottom fifth percentile of college and university graduates.  In other words, consider the source.<br />
</font><font size="3">3.</font>       <font size="3">In America you are constantly bombarded with information.  We’re fully immersed in the “information age.”  Also know that every bit of information that comes your way has a mission.  General Motors doesn’t spend millions on TV ads to get you to buy a Ford.<br />
</font><font size="3">4.</font>       <font size="3">That sociology professor, who may have you, your child or grandchild by the nose and is trying to lead you or them to utopia via a Marxist state, has a mission too. And the mission is not to expand your individual freedom and liberty.<br />
</font><font size="3">5.</font>       <font size="3">Whenever you or I communicate, we have a mission too.  I have a mission, in this piece.  I want you to agree with me or, at least come down on my side of the argument that American government and American education has gone too far Left/Liberal.<br />
</font><font size="3">6.</font>       <font size="3">Ann Coulter is today’s Bill Buckley.  Find out how many college and university newspapers run her column.  How frequently is she hooted and heckled when speaking on campus?<br />
</font><font size="3">7.</font>       <font size="3">Finally, who is responsible for these conditions?  Quote Pogo “we have met the enemy and they is us.”  We are!  I saw 50 and 60 year olds scuffling in the street to get to the front of a queue for a Sony Playstation.  What a sorry sign of our times.  And I’m willing to bet that many were not shopping for the kids.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">For some reason, the Left finds ways to get organized that the Right doesn’t  I think it may be because those who hold Leftist views in America are sheep that never had Josef Stalin as their shepherd.  And those on the Right all want to be shepherds.  I’m just not sure and I’m studying on it.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">So that’s how I went from rube to rubepublican.  I don’t agree with everything the Republican Party does but if they are not to the right of the Dems, then I got educated beyond my intellect.<br />
</font><font size="3"> </font></p>
<p><font size="3">Let Freedom Ring,<br />
