At his invitation I re-read Jim Gries' letter twice with my reading glasses to make sure I didn't miss a punctuation mark which may have slanted my interpretation of his context. I still found it arrogant and insulting and pointedly left leaning. Picture this, Jim, me standing here with my right hand raised and my left hand on the Bible and my swearing that I haven't listened to Rush Limbaugh, Kieth Oberman or Chris Matthews once in the last six or seven years and I never even heard of "Local Bob" whoever he is. I confess I have watched the Sean Hannity TV show two or three times in the last five years, and you are right ... he is a screechingly repetitious bloviator, but amazingly, listening to him did not cause my gray matter to turn into a gelatinous blob and come oozing out of my cranial orifaces! Maybe they all are bloviators. Who cares. It's their constitutional right to be, just as it's yours to disparage them for it, and mine to flip it back at you. I don't care for the opinions of any of them; but I guess because you include Chris Mathews that makes your attitude fair and balanced. Neither do I really care much about who is on your list so much as I do that you have a list in the first place. ...more

News Shows Have Different Visions Of Reality On MSNBC, Sen. Barack Obama's surge in the polls was so strong he was competitive in McCain's home state, Arizona. The everyman hero of McCain's campaign, "Joe the Plumber," failed to make an expected appearance at a morning rally in Defiance, Ohio, and the senator's efforts to highlight Obama's association with a professor tied to the PLO were amounting to nothing. ...more

Sen. Barack Obama delivered a reassuring economic message and a combative Sen. John McCain blistered his opponent as ill-prepared and opportunistic as the two entered the final four weeks of the marathon presidential campaign with swings through the battleground states of the Midwest. ...more

I was water-skiing with my children in a light drizzle off Hyannis, Mass., last month when a sudden, fierce storm plunged us into a melee of towering waves, raking rain, painful hail and midday darkness broken by blinding flashes of lightning. ...more

Dollar Value Loss On July 8, Tom Cannariato implied we can drill our way to energy independence and cheaper oil. Dallas Dunlap is more perceptive of the real world. When oil was $9 a barrel, it was far cheaper to buy it than it was to produce it ourselves, so nobody cared. Who does Tom think will pay the billions for exploration, rigs, pipelines, refineries and manpower? You will. How much more of your tax money should be used to subsidize the oil companies? Add that to the cost; so much for cheaper. You pay for all hurricane destruction, too. ...more
