Hi Jay, Re: The Michael Jackson sideshow is on full. It may turn into the debacle that the OJ Simpson show did. George Bush certainly hopes so: truthout.org Distraction is a hallmark of the psyops campaign now being waged against the American public by the Bushies. ***** Re: The differences in the spin and the reality of the presidential visit in London shows are illuminating. Not to mention the police riot at the abruptly ended FTAA meeting in Miami. democracynow.org ******** Re: The Arnie California Show is up next Arnie is meeting stiff resistance in the Legislature from both the Left and the Right. His bond scheme is meeting a lot of opposition, and his hand picked financial guru from GOP central casting abruptly walked out of a meeting with legislators when she couldn't handle the tough questions. And what of Arnie' rhetorical style? Here's a fun quibble about his Inaugural address: "In his inaugural speech, incidentally, Schwarzenegger said he was repealing the "300% increase" in the car tax. The car tax had been tripled, which of course is a 200% increase. This may sound like nitpicking, but isn't anyone alarmed at the thought that Schwarzenegger's people, drafting an ostensibly epoch-launching speech, allowed a simple arithmetic error to go through because the bigger number might have sounded politically more rousing? Are they going to do all the budget math this way?"

It's a lively discussion. :)
