Brother Maisky, when your subscription to the National Enquirer runs out I highly suggest you get another source for your daily news.
I think Fox News has a daily email you can subscribe to.
Sorry, I don't touch the Enquirer. I get my news from CNN, MSN, Fox, Time, Newsweek and Business Day (South Africa). I avoid the Enquirer and use Fox only for amusement.

So Maisky got it wrong. It's either Sean Hannity (who, BTW, has the most punchable face on TV) or Bill O'Reilly (a close second) that you listen to, right?
Man, here we go double-teaming sweet 'ole Shamalama. I got more bruises that a cat's got whiskers.
O'Reilly is a clown. He distorts as bad as Peter Jennings, and I dislike him just as much.
I will catch about 30 minutes of Hannity a couple of days or so on the drive home, depending on whether I require ammunition to fight the two of you, or some soothing celtic sounds, or the pride and parade of the pipes, or (geez, here I go embarassing myself publically again) 1980's dance music. Go Donna Summer!

Right of fascist? Oh shucks no. Rush will defend Republicans no matter what. A Conservative will defend Republicans when they're right, and bash them when they're wrong.
Bush blew it when we increased the size of the federal government. Bush blew it when he failed to get conservative judges on the bench. Bush blew it when he passed that hideous, pandering, vote-buying New Deal Prescription Drug Benefit thingie. Those are things Rush would never admit.
Bush got it right when he decided to go after the Taliban and Saddam. Bush got it right when he passed tax cuts for every tax-paying American.
Bush will blow it if he fails to go after other terrorism camps.

PARIS (AP) - A half-brother of Osama bin Laden says he enjoyed most of Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11," except for what he called "inaccuracies" about his family.
"It's a moving film," Yeslam Binladin, a Geneva-based tycoon and one of the al-Qaida leader's 54 siblings, said in an interview with the French magazine VSD.
"I even laughed at times," said Binladin, adding, "but a lot less when he states errors or inaccuracies about my family, knowing perfectly well that he's deceiving the public."
In the film, Moore says President Bush tried to cover up his family's longtime business and personal ties to the family of Osama bin Laden and other prominent Saudis because many of the hijackers were from Saudi Arabia.
One of his main points is that the U.S. administration helped 142 Saudis - including two dozen members of bin Laden's family - fly out of the United States two days after the Sept. 11 attacks, even though commercial air space was closed.
"That's false and can be verified by anyone," said the Saudi-born Binladin, who intentionally spells his name differently from Osama, the prime suspect in the Sept. 11 attacks. "They benefited from no exceptional authorization to leave American territory."
A recent 9/11 panel report states that the chartered flights took place starting Sept. 14, once airspace had reopened.
Binladin, who has lived in Geneva for many years and has Swiss citizenship, told the magazine that his U.S.-based family members flew into Geneva on Sept. 20 before taking off again for Saudi Arabia.
The movie also states that several family members attended a 2001 wedding of one of Osama bin Laden's sons in Afghanistan - a claim Binladin says is exaggerated.
"Nobody from my family was at this wedding in Afghanistan except for the mother of Osama," said Binladin. Yeslam and Osama are among the 54 sons and daughters of the late Saudi construction magnate Mohammed bin Laden and his 22 wives.
Binladin, the founder of Geneva-based financial company Sico, said the last time he saw his younger half-brother was before Osama left Saudi Arabia in 1981.
