s'all good.

One other point, though. I don't really think there is a leftwing "conspiracy" in the media. Nothing conspiratorial about it -- they are completely open about their politics. That's one reason why Fox looks so extremely right-wing, because they don't follow the party line. For every truly critical appraisal of a Democratic candidate (and I'm being generous here, because I don't remember any), there are dozens about the Republican du jour. It's just plain old bias.

You don't remember Al Gore?

The only news I get a chance to watch is the national news while I'm on the eliptical at the gym....it does help the time pass but it is usually pretty dull. Very rarely watch the local news although I read this morning that a 20 year old man in CT had too much to drink and stole a small Cessna plane and took two of his buds for a joy ride! DUH! When he some how landed safely at Westchester airport where the airport security met him and opened up the door a unusual amount of beer cans fell from the plane!

As for the Aruba story....white, blonde and blue eyed. Enough said.
