Daniel, Count your blessings. If you read the NY Times, at least you get some fair reporting. Most Americans get their news from Rather, Brokaw, Jennings, and CNN...all of them shameless Clinton worshippers. I read the L.A. Times almost every day. If the editors of the L.A. Times had their way, they would crown Bill Clinton King. Geraldo would wash his feet in a basin while the Pope blessed the new King. Personally, I don't know why people love Clinton so much. The guy has done major harm to the Presidency. Gingrich showed that he was a man. He resigned because he realized that he had become bigger than the issues. He did not want to harm his party any longer. However, if you watch Clinton hide behind his lawyers and dodge reporters, you have to wonder what kind of spine he really has. If Clinton was really the decent man some say he is, he would step up to the plate and deliver rather than dodge, whine, and hide. What country is he off today for? When is the last time he has spent a night in the same town as Hillary? The guy claims he wants to "keep working hard for the American people". If that is so, why did he spend 151 days fundraising, and 8 weeks on vacation so far this year. If most Americans turned in a timecard like that they would be fired. -John

Ok, people don't like the word liberal. I propose we replace it with TBBs. Those [Who Are] Blind to the Bias Interesting pattern I detect. Whenever the subject of media bias is broached, TBBs inevitably respond with "Stop picking on the New York Times". I don't read the NYT, never have. The paper I'm most familiar with is the Minneapolis Star Tribune. It is not just liberal, it is loony left on every page including sports.

Scientists Find a New Weapon to Quell Prison Riots and Cure Insomnia Maryland scientists are claiming they have discovered a revolutionary way to combat prison riots and cure insomnia. Their new weapon... audio tape recordings of Al Gore's political speeches. Said one Maryland scientist, "It's remarkable. We found that prison riots can be stopped dead in their tracks when Vice President Gore's speeches are played over the prison loud-speakers. Prisoners are instantly transformed from an agitated, angry and dangerous state to one that is bored and near comatose. We have never seen anything like it before." Prisons across the country are purchasing copies of Gore's speeches in case a riot should erupt. Al Gore's speeches are also being used in sleep-disorder clinics to help cure insomnia. Said one sleep-disorder specialist, "It's a miracle cure! Never before have we seen a drug-free therapy be so effective. Patients who have a hard time getting to sleep need only listen to Gore's speeches for a few minutes before they achieve deep sleep." FDA approval for using Gore's speeches to cure insomnia is expected sometime early next year.
