1. And that's how Americans like their crisis moments.
In short, brief, easy-to-understand half hour sitcom segments.

3. Yeah, the same bunch that's rung up record deficits
Is now going to try their incompetent hand at "reforming" social security. A couple of things you should notice right away: None of the reformers expect to be dependent on social security to keep them out of poverty; and just about every last one of them expects to reap a windfall personal bonanza from private accounts.

But that's not a conflict of interest, so stop saying that.

7. How about Fox broadcasting total crap
like 'the Swan' or Wife-swapping or whatever? What a great trick, Fox produces total trash for the fundies to complain about, then they give them an outlet for their outrage on Fox News. A horrible, vicious circle.
