Mike Rupert, you are correct! This is America! You and I have the right (at least for now) to make as many ignorant, stupid, uneducated, or non-nonsensical comments as we wish! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I know, right! Mike, any and everyone over the age of 18 has to get out there and vote on Nov. 4th as if their life depended on it (which it does) Just the thought of having another 4 years of McBush has me shivering in my shoes. Oh yeh, and he wants to bring the draft back. Will his daughter be forced to serve in the armed forces like my son would be. I think not!
Mike,
Thanks for posting the sociopathic checklist. It's a good resource that I've routed on to several friends.
Good show!
You sure like Al! So do I. I always have. Even when he was running against Clinton, I preferred Al and Tipper.

Mike Rupert, thanks for your always enjoyable columns, and for sticking up for me when I entered as a rookie. You're the man. You're way cool, even for Californian standards.
