SH> It's been a good week in politics.   
      
    SH> 1.  So uber weirdo Olbermann can call President Bush a   
    SH> terrorist and a war criminal without penalty, but Mark   
    SH> Halperin has to go because he said Obama acted like a dick   
    SH> during a press conference?  Is it any wonder that Faux   
    SH> "news" beats the hell out of MSNBC?   
      
    And this is what SH considers significant? He doesn't mention   
    why it was said, what should have happened, or anything to give   
    anyone an idea what's going on.   
      
    SH> 2.  Speaking of that, CNN airs a 40-year-old statement from   
    SH> Roger Ailes that talked about the possibility of a 24-hour   
      
    And nothing to give anyone an idea what it's all about.   
      
    ...   
      
    SH> 3.  Cigar Willy says that he would like to have   
    SH> grandchildren but that the matter is out of his control.   
    SH> Really?   
      
    And he considers this significant?   
      
    SH> 4.  On a more serious note, June was the deadliest month in   
    SH> a year for our men at arms.  Of course, with the departure   
    SH> of President Bush, the MSM have lost interest in the body   
      
    The MSM seems to be going to the right in trying to keep the   
    troops in combat.   
      
    ...   
      
    SH> 5.  One in four Americans don't know who we declared   
    SH> independence from in 1776. I wonder if these people also   
    SH> think that U.S. senators represent districts within states?   
      
    After a generation of the right hacking away at American schools   
    it's no wonder.   
      
    Anyone notice, the repubican solution to the debt in Minnesota   
    is to take $700 million from the schools, but not one bit of a   
    tax increase on the uber-rich? Minnesota is already $1Billion   
    down on school funding. Now $700M more? The republicans don't   
    even blink at that.   
      
    SH> 6.  After refusing to meet with congresspeople over the   
    SH> debt, Obama calls for bipartisan action on the debt.  He is   
    SH> not a serious man.   
      
    It was the repubicans who walked out on the talks, when the   
    democrats wanted to discuss the tax breaks on corporate jets.   
    That is not serious. Why would Obama meet with anyone who sets   
    preconditions that he gives all, and they give nothing?
