Season's Gratings

TO HILLARY AND BACK
Re: Enemy Central's Search and Restore:

Ah, these EOWs (Enemies of the Week) are so well done. This one was especially good. I'm not sure even EOY (Enemy of the Year) describes her well enough. I'll say this about the Clintons, they seem to have energizer bunny stamina. Where, oh where is the wooden stake, the silver bullet, the bridge too far for them?

I'm so glad The American Spectator is back on the web in fine fettle. Merry Christmas, and best wishes for a Prosperous New Year from a big fan.

Hillary Rodham Clinton Rodham has had quite a year. Best selling fiction author, non-candidate for President, power broker for the Senate subversives, ambassador of bad will and now EOY. Well earned and deserved.
-- G.M. Strong
Media, Pennsylvania

Enemy Central replies: No jumping the gun, please. Ms. HRC was merely EOW in this year's penultimate sweepstakes. Whether she goes on to win the big prize next week is as uncertain at this writing as whether she deigns to run for president next year or in 2008 or 20012 or 2016 or 2036 or 2136.

JOYFUL AND TRIUMPHANT
Re: Shawn Macomber's Caroling With the Supremes:

'Tis a shame only two of the Justices were present -- I suspect some of their brethren were in the back, searching for some precedent which would bar the explicitly Christmas carols from the festivities.

SIZE WISE
Re: Patrick Hynes's The Intolerant Left:

Patrick Hynes mentions that "Many liberals want to prohibit news organizations from getting too large, and Fox (actually News Corp) is really, really big."

Actually, News Corp isn't all that big in relation to the other news players. According to an interesting article in the Atlantic, "The Age of Murdoch" by James Fallows, in 2002:

• News Corp had revenues of $17 billion.
• Viacom (CBS) $25 billion.
• Disney (ABC) $26 billion.
• Time Warner (CNN) $42 billion, and
• General Electric (NBC) $131 billion.

This makes one wonder why Fox would be the target of Dean's ire, well it would if one believed that the size of the media outlet was the real issue.

"The Intolerant Left" article by Patrick Hynes points out some very disturbing trends. The left wing in America will stop at nothing to regain power. Slowly but surely they are whittling away at our rights. Kudos to you for pointing out their efforts to silence dissent. Our ability to speak our minds, even when our views may be unpopular, is what America is all about. Keep up the good work!

VATICAN CIRCUS
Re: George Neumayr's Vatican Shuffler and Vincent Chiarello's letter ("Souls on Trial") in Reader Mail's The Big Tease:

My one-line response to Mr. Neumayr's fine piece was going to be: "George Neumayr for Ambassador to the Holy See!"
