Hope and Sanity

Special tributes to Ben Stein and Jed Babbin. Plus much more, including the truth about "In Like Flynt" and about Wyoming.
p> THE TAS COMBO br> Re: Jed Babbin's Fed Up With April Already and Ben Stein's Greetings From Rancho Mirage : /p> p>Jed and Ben make reading TAS pretty worthwhile. Living up here in lala land, I find them a welcome diversion from the complete craziness of the local media and events. The loon party met last weekend in Montpelier and decided to push for impeachment of Bush. That made national news for some reason and in my fair city of Burlington, "we" elected a "progressive" mayor who (as the second choice in an "instant runoff") promises to fix the fiscal mess left by the outgoing "progressive" mayor, while the state "GOP" (actually RINO central) has taken sides in a primary fight between a Jeffords RINO and a real conservative, siding with the RINO. So you can see that reading Jed Babbin's and Ben Stein's articles gives me hope that, yes, there is reason and sanity beyond the borders of Vermont. In effect, they are so reasonable and sane, they could qualify as bona fide Traditional Vermont Yankees, a group I believe should be on the federal endangered species list.
