Daniel Shore liberal?
NPR is about the most balanced journalism around
except in the mornings here in NYC when they broadcast that idiot (talbit
smiley something or other) from WNYC with his racist bull****.

in fact about a year ago (or 2............my mind wonders) they produced a
full page ad in the NY times regarding the israeli and palestinian mess.
the israelis responded with force
the palistinians were silent.
interesting.

gf.

That's OK by me, as long as the Bush-Cheney goons don't start using
Mussolini's tactic... you know with the castor oil...

BTW does anybody else find it ominous that President Bush is buddying up
to the Russians and talking admiringly about their system? Can't he at
least wait until after the (cough) election?


"Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice
of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of
increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to
all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear"
--Harry S. Truman

I was listening to NPR last night. Daniel Shore was giving his
commentary, but I tuned in about 1/2 way through. He was talking about
restricting civil liberties, the president asking the people to put up
with several moderately heavy-handed techniques to combat domestic
terrorism, etc. I was thinking that this was a bit much even for
Shore, even though he is quite liberal. I thought he was a bit over
the top, since Bush/Cheney/Ashcroft hadn't really gone that far (yet).

Then, I realized he was talking about Putin. Scary.

I was trying to offer an olive branch to the right-wing wackos.

Yeah, he's not worth listening to.
