STAND UP AND YALE
Re: R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr.'s Caught in
the Ivy:
Nice try, but with the wonder that is Google, I found that the criminal in question is an alumnus of Yale, a formerly great university in the Ivy League. Why is it that these fearless seers from the late '60s or early '70s like this turd and others such as P. Erlich are never challenged about what they say now when their track record is so abysmal?
Just wonderin'.

ECONOMIC SABOTEURS
Re: Enemy Central's Nice Work If
You Can Get It:
You would suppose that with all that the nine hopefuls, Hillary, and Al Franken have to say about everything bad in America, they would at least comment on why individual states like California, Washington, Oregon, Michigan, and Illinois (that are run by Democrats) have some of the worst unemployment figures.
This "Economic sabotage" is just another form of terrorism this bunch implements, cheers on, then blames on the Right.
See the U.S. Dept of Labor statistics. Only Hawaii and Texas
don't seem to fit the trend.

WHAT'S LEFT
Re: David Hogberg's HateRush.com:
It isn't a surprise, really, that Rush gets that reaction. The
Left, believing itself morally superior, is very used to
conservatives cringing and cowering whenever they call us names --
what has always offended them about Rush is his refusal to accept
their claim to moral superiority. I wish there were more
conservatives -- say, in the Republican caucus in the Senate -- who
felt the same way. All these "hate Rush" folks have done is reveal
what losers, what pathetic "human beings" they are.

I was both amused and saddened to read about Margaret Cho's snide
attacks on Rush. You may not be aware of this, but Ms. Cho is (or,
at least claimed to be several years ago) a recovering alcoholic
and addict. I know this because I was an executive of a company
that several years ago produced a cable TV show comedy show called
"Bottoms." It was a live show at a small comedy club in L.A.,
featuring comedians in recovery riffing on their alcohol and drug
experiences and subsequent recovery. I have no idea how many of
those we taped are still clean. But one common theme among
recovering alcoholics and addicts is charity towards anyone who is
trying to kick the habit. To see someone in recovery attack a
person who had admitted their problem and is getting treatment is
simply despicable. Ms. Cho has no right to comment on anyone else's
problems.

If David Hogberg really wants to read vile postings on the Internet from the brain-dead of our society, he should try DemocraticUndergound.com.
Beyond the Rush hatred they spew, they are even worse on Bush and the war in Iraq. Many posting they actually pray for more American soldiers to die in Iraq so Bush won't be re-elected.
Only a country as great as the United States would send brave
men and women to fight and die to protect the rights of even the
most stupid and hateful of us.

Thanks for alerting me to MediaGeek. The others you mentioned are on my daily reading list and now I can add another top notch site.
In these days of rising Bushco fascism, humor is the best
medicine. You should try some.
