While 100% supportive of George W. Bush's performance as Commander-in-Chief, I've been far less enthralled by Dubyuh's outta control domestic spending binge, leading me to look into supporting either the Constitution or Libertarian candidate fer POTUS. While it's still a 3-person race fer my vote, I will say that the DemonRATS' horrific mud-slingin' and LIES has begun to tilt the playing field in the direction of supporting Dubyuh...all I want to see now is a little more acknowledgement that his Administration's first-term spending binge was a mistake and he'll get it under control in the second term!! That's certainly not too much to ask, is it?!

On the other hand. Think how out of control things would be if AlBore had been elected.
IMHO:
If President Bush has long coattails, which I think he will, then we should see a big pickup in both houses of Congress.
How will that help, you ask? Slim majorities can't get major issues and confirmations passed. Too much infighting.
With the GOP in full control of congress, the President will be able to get tough legislation and confirmations passed. He will also be under greater pressure to reign in out-of-control social programs and start downsizing.
At least I hope that will be the scenario. ;>)
So we can count on your vote for Bush/Cheney, RIGHT?

Media Biased: Fact or Fiction?
Author: Vicky Dearing (cb88) –all rights reserved ©
Is the media biased? If so, which way is it biased? Before you answer these questions, consider the following. Media power is concentrated in the hands of a very few reporters, editors, anchors and producers of the national networks and newspapers. Of the media, television is the most powerful—it stimulates us visually and audibly. With so much power, the media have often been called the “fourth branch of government.” That’s a very strong statement, but perhaps it’s accurate.
Media holds the power of newsmaking—they decide what we see, what we hear, how long we see it, when we see it and the slant that is put on it. With so much power, it is hard to deny that power can be corrupted to project the views of the ones who hold the power. The media people claim they merely “mirror” reality and what they see in society, but with the power to control what we see, this gives them the power to shape the news, not to merely report it.
The media is protected by the First Amendment. It is not a neutral force in government, but active participants, challenging government officials, debating public issues and defining society’s problems. Yes, I said, “defining”. For if they control what we see and hear, they have the power to decide what issues are important. They have the power to set agendas, frame issues, present alternatives and create political issues. They hold this power by having absolute power to screen the news. Think of this, we have been in Bosnia for nearly a decade, yet we hardly hear of it any more—should we debate Bosnia and its validity? The media thinks not because they choose not to report it. If they put in the front pages and on leading news the issues still confronting that conflict, perhaps more people would be debating it as well as, or instead of, the validity of Iraq—but the media keeps Bosnia out of the spotlight and therefore off the table of important political issues. Are they doing it out of biased? Maybe, maybe not—a possible reason for not reporting it could be argued to be “sensationalism”. Bosnia is old news and it wouldn’t sell papers or commercial advertising; or would it?
Media power extends beyond newsmaking. They not only frame the news, but they provide interpretation of the event—they editorialize. Ready to say “no, they report”? Don’t speak so fast. The media provides interpretation in a myriad of ways. One of the most powerful ways is by selecting the footage we see. We remember better what we see than what we hear. Who among us will forget the pictures of the charred American bodies hanging from the bridge in Iraq? If the media had not shown those, but shown instead more pictures of the cheering and celebrating crowds, who would be the target of our hatred for those atrocities? The media can interpret news by deciding which side of the story they want to report—the angle they want to come from. Consider the disproportionate amount of bad news coming out of Iraq as compared to the good stories of how much we’ve accomplished. You rarely hear of the successes, only the failures. But, let’s leave Iraq out of this for a moment. How about the Los Angeles Riots? Does anyone remember the way the news was reported? We were made to almost feel sorry for the angry mob because, after all, the police had been completely freed of any charge of beating Rodney King. And what about the Rodney King video that started it all? How much of the footage BEFORE the beating did we ever see in the news? I remember watching a show on that and saw how violent and out of control Rodney King was prior to the beating. I’m not a civil law attorney, or even a criminal justice specialist. I’ve never worked in law enforcement and I’m not arguing that the use of force to the extent they did was necessary, but Rodney King was a LARGE man and behaving extremely erratically. If the media had put more emphasis on the moments before the beating, I think the public reaction might have been entirely different.
Not only does media hold the power to set agendas and interpret the news, they hold the power to persuade. In paid advertisements, news and entertainment the media often attempts to persuade public opinion. Political leaders are not devoid of taking advantage of this. They have a love-hate relationship with the media. Often they try to manipulate the media and use them for direct persuasion by holding press conferences, and indirectly by giving information to reporters they want released. The media is the all to willing accomplice if the information is significant. There is much biased by the media towards anything that includes violence, conflict, scandal, corruption, sex, or the personal lives of politicians and celebrities. Muckraking, or the new politically correct term “watch dogging”, is common practice by the media. Muckraking more aptly describes it, but the media doesn’t like the negative feeling of that term. However, call it what it is, they scrape the “bottom” and continually look for the negative—remember, they came up with the philosophy “if it bleeds, it leads.”
Media has the ability to shape public opinion of a candidate. They can constantly air footage that portraits someone in a bad light or a good light. No one remembers all of the good things that Vice President Quayle did because the media’s constant harping on one misspelled word --they single-handedly shaped the majority of public opinion to think of Dan Quayle as an idiot savant. Did he deserve it? Do a little research on Dan Quayle and you’ll find the answer. Not that I thought President Ford was the most brilliant President ever, but does anyone remember how the media had a fixation with constantly airing pictures of him tripping or stumbling? The whole world thought of President Ford as a klutz. Perhaps he was, but did that make him a bad President? No, other things might have, but that issue wasn’t important. So, which way does the media lean? There is no denying that the media elites have liberal leanings. The liberals in politics like to deny this. There is no denying, however, that the likes of Ted Turner and other media giants are liberals. It is feudal to try and argue that their political leanings will not have some influence in their newsmaking. But remember, the United States Constitution guarantees freedom of the press, not fairness. So, why do the liberals deny it?
If we acknowledge the biased is there and that it is constitutionally protected, why do we complain about it? In other words, what’s the big deal if it is biased? Quite simply, the biased puts emphasis on the unimportant. Today a candidate’s image is more important than his substance. The media plays up how good looking a candidate is, their stage persona, etc. The same media that has been telling young girls for years that if they aren’t anorexic they aren’t beautiful is now telling us that if a candidate is not good looking and doesn’t have good stage presence he’s not a good candidate. It’s the “Shallow Hal” mentality, and our materialistic world has played right into it. Perhaps we should remember that all that glitters is not gold. Shouldn’t a candidate’s strength of character and substance be more important than if he wears an Armani suit and gets botox injections?
And what about the media’s power? What about Freedom of the Press? How far should it go? The press often invokes the “Prior Restraint” clause of Freedom of the Press, fully aware the historical intent of that clause was to designed to prohibit government from closing down or seizing newspapers. Now they use it to cover everything from publishing stolen highly classified documents that somehow ended up in their office (see the US Supreme Court rule on the Pentagon Papers case) to trying to push for undeserved answers at military briefings. They need to remember that while the government may not censure, they may be able to muzzle the press, especially in combat areas.
And what about “fair and balanced?” The FCC requires that broadcast media offers equal time and rates to political candidates wishing to use the media for advertisements. BUT, this requirement does not apply to news programs, news specials or talk shows, nor does it apply to presidential addresses or press conferences. So, could the media use the afore mentioned to give extra time to a candidate they are biased to? Absolutely! Sometimes in a meager attempt to appear unbiased, they offer free time for the opposition party to respond to such shows, although it is much more truncated in terms of time.
Can the media say whatever they want about a candidate out of biased? You might be saying, “no, they have to be accountable for libel and slander.” Think again. As a result of the New York Times v. Sullivan case (1964) it is more difficult for public officials to prove slander or libel. They must not only prove the communication to be false and that it was known to be false, but that it was made with “malicious intent” which has been interpreted as reckless regard for the truth. This is very difficult to prove in court, and as a consequence the media can say virtually anything about a public official. In fact, they have tried to broaden public officials to include public figures . Due to “absence of malice,” The Constitution actually protects the right of the media to be biased.
Other factors enable the media to be biased. The U.S. Supreme Court has not given blanket protection to the media in regards to shielding sources, however several states have passed shield laws that would apply in their states. The media feel that their ability to gather information would be seriously compromised if they had to reveal the identity of sources to the police or in court proceedings. But what about accountability? Does this shield give the media carte blanche and remove them from accountability? Some say it does.
The media does have certain abilities in shaping political life. They affect public opinion in the areas of information and agenda setting, values and opinions, and behavior. The media doesn’t tell us what to think, but they do, through their reporting, tell us what to think about. The media, while it can seldom change preexisting opinions, can reinforce existing values and opinions, even negative ones. And, lastly, TV is likely to reinforce behaviors, again even negative ones, rather than change them. So, you decide, is the media biased? And if so, is it wrong?

"Carry the Flag, Chris!"
by Glenn Pappalardo
Sep 30, 2004
One of the things that makes a sport, and particularly college football, such a wonderful game is its unpredictability. In any given game, on any given Saturday (or these days any Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, too), a team that has no business winning a game will win. A team that has no business losing a game will lose. And players who have never before and never again will be stars jump up and have the performances of their lives. It's why we watch and why we love the game. But there is a cruel side to the unpredictability of this sport, and it is a side that Virginia fans are beginning to know all too well. A side of separated shoulders, broken bones and twisted knees. A side of concussions and sprains. Or a side of ailments more abstract, more obscure, and, occasionally, much more severe.
Injuries are college football's grand irony - the constant reminder that, no matter how big, strong and fast human beings can become, they are still breakable, still very much human. They are the dasher of hopes and the breakers of dreams, and they have destroyed many a promising season for teams and players throughout the history of the sport. But injuries can be something else, something far less damaging. They can be a cause. They can be an inspiration. In a game where the psychological edge is often the difference between beating a worthy rival or losing to it, injuries can provide a motivation stronger than anything a healthy individual can provide for himself.
What often is the difference between an injury becoming a debilitating and demoralizing event versus an inspirational rallying cry is the individual involved. Who this person is to his teammates, and how he handles the adverse circumstances dealt by the football gods, can go a long way towards determining how his teammates and coaches react to his absence. If that is the case, Virginia is in good hands. There is no more vocal and demonstrative player on the Virginia football team than Chris Canty. Over his years with the program, he has transformed himself from a skinny but athletic boy out of Charlotte into a monstrous and dominating man of a defensive end. And more important than the muscle he has forged onto his tall frame is the maturity, leadership and respect he has forged out of his teammates.
This 2004 Cavalier defense, in fact this 2004 Cavalier team, is Chris Canty's. There are others with great leadership qualities on this roster - Alvin Pearman and Marques Hagans, for instance - but the team is Chris Canty's. With his outgoing and well-spoken nature, his work ethic and his relentless play, Canty represents, in one man, the metamorphosis of the Virginia program under Al Groh. Four years ago, he was undersized and overwhelmed. Now, after four years of rigorous training, learning and experience, he is perhaps the best defensive lineman in the nation. On this Cavalier roster, he is not alone in such a transformation.
Losing Chris Canty the football player is a major blow to the Virginia program on the field. His skills are undeniable, and his consistency and disruption invaluable to a defense. As a man, neither Kwakou Robinson, Chris Johnson nor Chris Long can be Chris Canty. It is unreasonable to ask them to be, and even more foolish to expect them to be at this point in their careers. This being the case, at one position - Chris Canty's position - there will be some level of drop-off. But Chris Canty the person has not been lost. Chris Canty the student, Chris Canty the representative of the Virginia program and Chris Canty the leader are all still very much in existence and with this program. And these Chris Cantys, by themselves, are a lot more than many major programs across the country have.
Instead, new challenges now await both Chris Canty and his Virginia teammates.
For Canty, the challenge is of not only maintaining his role of team leader but increasing it, of not allowing those around him to use his injury as an excuse for failing to accomplish everything this team set out to achieve. The challenge of setting the tone for what this injury really means to this program, by showing others it is in no way a defeat, only one more hurdle to be cleared en route to victory.
For his teammates, the challenge is to channel the feelings of frustration and sadness from losing a good friend and teammate on the field into a level of play that transcends what they have been able to muster to date. It's a matter of every player on every Virginia unit - defense, offense and special teams - understanding that only by raising their collective play to a level previously not considered attainable will they overcome the loss of a tremendous player.
For Chris Canty and this Virginia team, meeting these challenges means that the goals of this team when the season started can and will be met. It means that everything that these players worked for during the long offseason and training camp is still very much within their grasp. And it means that the measure of a leader isn't limited to statistics in a box score. Chris Canty will never again put on a Cavalier uniform and take the field for Virginia, and this is undeniably tragic. But that is where the tragedy ends. Because Chris Canty will be on the field - either in spirit or in person - with his teammates for the remainder of this season. He will be in the locker room and the film room, the classroom and the practice field. He will be there because he is a leader, and leaders know that what happens on the field is only a fraction of what makes them, and their team, what they are.
Late last season, Coach Groh introduced a flag to his players and asked them to step up, individually and collectively, to carry this flag through times of trouble. Since that point, the team has not lost a game.
The Cavaliers once again find themselves in a difficult time, only of a different nature. And this time, there is one man who should - and likely will - stand up and carry the flag, all the way to the finish line. He'll do it because he's embodied the concept since he set foot on Grounds at Virginia. He'll do it because it's the only way he knows how to be. He'll do it because he's a leader.
Carry the flag, Chris. And everyone else will follow.
WahooWah...MUD
GUV: But I still believe that the Republicans TODAY should have no trouble retaining a majority in the Senate...I think it's gonna be a horse race in the House. There are so many variables...because of the open seats, the lack of incumbency, the lack of free stamps and free postage, the lack of the ol' boy network, the lobbyist, the lack of the money pouring into incumbents...you see what I'm saying?
MUD: Um-hmm...right...
GUV: Well, all of that stuff throws it up fer grabs and let me tell ya, the public will ultimately be the group that reaches up and grabs somebody as they've done for the last ten years!! They've done it on a couple of occasions where no one wouldda believed the public wouldda resoundingly defeated the Democrats in the House as they did some 4-5 years ago. On the other hand, now that that has happened, many people have questioned whether the Republicans deserve to continue with that majority and that's the real battle.
MUD: I think...just for one time in my lifetime--and I'm 37 years old--I have yet to see...I mean, we've seen a Democratic President with Democratic control of both the House and Senate...
GUV: Right...
MUD: We have never seen it the other way around...
GUV: No...
MUD: There was some legislation that they passed, I mean, they were able to get through Welfare Reform, after three tries and a whole lotta blood, sweat, and tears...but there's a whole lotta other Conservative Legislation that takes Power outta DeeCee and gives it back to States, Localities and Individuals...and if that process is allowed to happen, and if--another thing is School Vouchers--if that becomes something that they are able to accomplish in the next 4-8 years, then I really don't think the Democratic Party has a reason to exist...because they will have to totally change their whole gameplan to...there's gonna be less dependent people, and that's who votes Democratic, folks who are dependent upon the Federal Government!! And they're gonna go away!!
[I kept talking for another 10-15 seconds before I realized I'd been cut off...LOL!!!]
GUV: Well, OK, I...uhmmm, I hear what you're sayin' and thank you for calling but I can tell you--in my judgment--you're gonna have a horserace in the House...."
LOL...and now, here I am volunteering to help out with Wilder's Mayoral run here in Richmond...MUD

"Billy the Kid"
(To be sung to Billy Joel's "Billy the Kid")
From a town known as Little Rock in the Ozarks,
Strode a boy with ambition without end.
His ruthless political climb made him a legend in his mind,
But his Quest fer Power required cash to spend!
So, he swindled a bank with Jim McDougald,
With his partner's young wife into bed he slid!
His prestige and his lies took that Hick State by surprise,
The word spread fast 'bout Billy the Kid!
Well, he never followed their rules, 'cuz the White House was his goal,
And he soon put many finer pols to shame.
But Slick never had a conscience, and he never had a soul,
Still the Lib'rals and the Medyuh hailed his name!
Secured illegal funds from Unions and Red China,
But Ken Starr could not seem to track him down,
And Bill served his masters well, 'cuz the Left they're dumb as Hell,
'Specially when Billy the Kid came aroun'.
Well, one fine day those scandals ensnared Billy,
America said, "String him up for what he did!!"
And the voters and their kids, finally started tuning in,
To watch the Re-Impeachment of Billy the Kid!
Well, he never thought they'd catch him, Slick's Arrogance let him down,
Eventually, even DemonRATS cursed his name!
Though he never cared for Freedom, Clinton finally found a home,
Within a Federal Prison, Slick bears his shame...
From a town somewhere in mid-America,
Watched a child aspiring to understand,
And Slick's Politics of Slime proved an example for his time,
As History scorned that crooked man!

Listenin’ to hear Rush say!
“Keep Freepin’, Freepin’
Everybody's Freepin’ great”
We’re Freepin’, Freepin’
Cuz Rush is leadin’ the Way!
JLA shows up in fancy clothes
Where he found them we don't know,
CM, he brought his radio,
Limbaugh is ON today!
Watching Happygal in her slacks,
As she leans on Landru’s back,
He’s concentrated hard, while
Limbaugh is havin’ his say!
He’s talkin’, talkin’
Right Wing feelin’ great.
We’re listenin’, listenin’
Limbaugh is having his say!
Listen a while,

Rushbo hits back,
Soccer Moms, now go, now fret
Limbaugh has had his way!
FDB wearin’ blue jeans.
Shows up vid his Svedis queen.
MUD has his recordin’ machine,

Creedence Clearwater Revival's "LODI" (J.C. Fogerty)
Just about a year ago, I set out on the road,
Seekin' my fame and fortune, lookin' for a pot of gold.
Things got bad, and things got worse, I guess you will know the tune.
Oh ! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again.
Rode in on the Greyhound, I'll be walkin' out if I go.
I was just passin' through, must be seven months or more.
Ran out of time and money, looks like they took my friends.
Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.
The man from the magazine said I was on my way.
Somewhere I lost connections, ran out of songs to play.
I came into town, a one night stand, looks like my plans fell through
Oh ! Lord, Stuck in Lodi again.
Mmmm...
If I only had a dollar, for ev'ry song I've sung.
And ev'ry time I've had to play while people sat there drunk.
You know, I'd catch the next train back to where I live.
Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.
Oh ! Lord, I'm stuck in Lodi again.
