5. Honestly, I prefer it this way.
I'd much rather see Clinton expressing genuine compassion and solidarity than Bush desperately trying to fake it.

However, Bush is still a classless yokel for having to rely on Clinton in the first place.

Such strange times...

6. TRY THIS ON
I suggest you consider canceling your cable service on or around Inauguration day as a protest about the way we hear the news. I rarely watch the news, but the reporting of the Tsunami disaster sent me over the top. Only the US used it as a way to further a political point of view. The US is a world leader in giving, and on and on. It made me sick.

Try this on:

What if LESS THAN one quarter of the people who voted for Kerry cancel their cable television service to protest the news media? Let’s say 250,000 households.

On average, cable costs $2/day. That’s HALF A MILLION DOLLARS PER DAY.

Keep it off a month, that’s 15 MILLION DOLLARS

If you don’t think that will have an economic impact on cable television, you’re wrong.

YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. KILL YOUR TELEVISION SERVICE. GET TO KNOW YOUR KIDS, GET TO KNOW YOUR PARTNER, GET TO KNOW YOURSELF. READ MORE. GET MORE EXERCISE. LISTEN TO THE RADIO, PLAY MORE MUSIC, RENT A MOVIE IF YOU MUST WATCH TELEVISION.

MOST IMPORTANTLY, SEND THE MONEY YOU SAVE TO DISASTER RELIEF.

IF YOU WANT THIS COUNTRY BACK, YOU HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK.
