-> Lets see if I agree with something Rush says I am a Limbot. Well I guess
-> makes you and your fellow liberals Libbots. Just because someone like Rus
-> able to explain beliefs that I agree with does not mean I am blindly follo
-> him. All it means is I have found a voice for my beliefs.
Sure are a lot of labels being assigned here. Let's see if I can express an
opinion without being liabelously labeled (I tried). I think Barbra Striesand
(I hope I spelled that right) has a wonderfull singing voice. I love it. But I
don't want to see her in the senate. (You heard it here first!)
Invite me to some major parties where I can rub elbows with the CA/DC power
brokers, hear the deals, tell some jokes... maybe I'll change my mind...But I
don't think so. Rush is like that obnoxious brother-in-law that you can't win
an argument with... cause, dammit, the SOB is right. (No pun intended) I've
only seen his show a few times, but that was my impression. Makes me wish I had
cable sometimes. When (if) I agree with some loud public figure, am I to be
tagged with some witty(?) nom d'politic? How many of us have made it to the
top of any field we're in? Top 10? (There's a joke in there...who's buried in
Grnts tomb?) Don't condemn me because because I have noticed that many of my
opinions are shared by an obnoxious fellow with lots of media access...
Rather, give me a greater selection of noisey fellows or exuberant women who
can entertain me with news and views with which I happen to agree. (mostly)
Bill R. Clinton just doesn't meet that criteria for me. What was it Will
Rogers said about what happens when congress makes a joke?...
