I think Ensign is next.

Ensign will be a far better NRSC Chair than Dole. Its a shame that Ensign might not get the support he needs in the party because Liddy was inept at her job.

Sure, we'll fund the party. That is, we'll fund the RNC. The NRSC is a whole different ball of wax, though.

The campaign committees will be key to taking back Congress. We just need someone with better political skills (read: any political skills). I'd like to see Jon Kyl as he seems to have the toughness and intelligence for the position. Not mention he is a solid conservative.

The NRSC did to much damage. Time to let it go away and be replaced y better organizations...

--John Stuart Mill

If your statement is true, when Mr. Ensign sends out letters, then we will give him an audience. Donations will depend on what changes he makes in staff and tactics (for instance, whether the NRSC will keep out of Republican primaries in the future).

who happens to be my Senator, I still wouldn't send them ten cents. As far as I'm concerned, Liddy can sell her *** to make up the deficit or they can file bankruptcy.

Actually, bankruptcy would be appropriate for an organization as bankrupt as the NRSC.

We can give to candidates directly and we can give to PACs that are focused on the judiciary.

If Dole was coming back to run the show I could understand this, but she's out. Near as I can tell Ensign has been a pretty darn good conservative (lifetime ACU 94), and we should be behind him.

I listen to Rush several time a week. There was no attack on Michael J. Fox. I will agree the the national press presented it in a way that got Clair McCaskill elected.

Rush said Fox either manipulated his meds or he was acting in the "shaking Michael" stem cell spot. And as it turned out, Fox was manipulating his meds to aggravate his symptoms for effect.

The people who turned it into a "savage attack" were the ones who believe advocacy by a "victim" (as long as he's supporting liberals, that is) can never be questioned.

Fox's ad was dishonest on numerous levels: we weren't being shown the effects of Parkinson's, we were being shown the effect of intentional manipulation of Parkinson's medication, and we were being sold a bill of goods re: the prospects for embryonic stem cell research.

There's a reason the embryonic proponents keep pushing for government funding, namely, if they were dependent upon the free market, they'd have to produce something worthwhile or their research funds would be cut off.

Which, as I understand it, is pretty much the case already - the market's interested in adult stem cell research because that's where the best prospects are.

Rush should have made the point that you make about the dishonesty of claiming that embryonic stem cells will lead to cures, when nobody knows if that is true or not.

But Rush made a huge mistake by attacking Fox personally, claiming that he manipulated his medication. Fox denied doing this. Whether its true or not doesn't matter. The merits of the argument don't matter; Its just stupid to attack a sick person. It made Rush look heartless. And you don't have to take my word for it; thats what the opinion polling afterward showed.

I doubt this cost Talent the election tough, although the stem cell issue seems to have hurt him in the suburbs.

You just didn't hear much about that. I believe he said he intentionally took too much medication. Again, its the national press being disingenuous.

Fox never said that he intentionally took too much medication. He said those effects are caused by too much medication.

COURIC: And that's actually caused by the medication?

FOX: It's caused by the medication. You know, it's funny that the notion that you could calculate it for effect is -- you know, people with Parkinson's out there were just kind of going, "Yeah, would that we could."

Fox actually stated he was overmedicated as opposed to being off medication or undermedicated as Rush stated, perhaps you might want to view the video again.

So now sick democrats get a pass to lie and misrepresent facts?
get real.

You act like that's something new.

Should we compare how many Robert C Byrd somethings there are in WV to how many Ted Stevens whatevers there are in AK? I'd bet Ole Bobby wins that race by a mile.

air cargo port in flights and 4th largest in landed weight in the World. It also accomodates the navigation for all the transpolar and North Pacific great circle navigation for the World. Both FedEx and UPS operate major hubs there. Most major national and several international passenger carriers operate several flights a day in summer and most maintain year round service. It is Alaska Airlines' second largest hub behind SEA. Since most of Alaska is accessible only by air, TSAIA has hundreds of in-state flights a day. A little knowledge is a good thing.

In Vino Veritas
