************************************ Gov't In Action...er, Inaction "The federal government was not at all what I expected. Nothing - and almost no one - worked." - Linda Chavez in her new book, "An Unlikely Conservative," on what she discovered in Washington, D.C. ********************************* Hot Books for Your Christmas List! Guaranteed conservative selections for the entire family -- click here and save: <http://www.conservativebookservice.com?sour_cd=CME007302> ************************************ A Student's Guide to Understanding Liberalism The following was forwarded to me by one of the few truly-talented conservative political tactician/strategists in the country today, Dave Pearson... - - - - - - - - - "One time there was a young teenage girl who was about to finish her first year of college. She considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat and her father was a rather staunch Republican. "One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs and his opposition to programs like welfare. He stopped her and asked her how she was doing in school. "She answered that she had a 4.0 GPA but it was really tough. She had to study all the time, never had time to go out and party and often went sleepless because all of the studying. She didn't have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of all her studying. "He then asked how her friend Mary, who was attending the same college, was doing. "She replied that she was barely getting by. She had a 2.0 GPA, never studied. Was very popular on campus and was at parties all the time. She often wouldn't show up for classes because she was hung over. "He then asked his daughter why she didn't go to the Dean's office and ask why she couldn't take 1.0 off her 4.0 and give it to her friend that only had a 2.0. That way they would both have a 3.0 GPA. "She fired back and said 'that wouldn't be fair, I worked really hard for mine and my friend has done nothing.' "After a moment of silence, she replied, 'I guess I will never vote Democrat again.' " *********************************** Boys Will Be Boys "Agusta (National Golf Club) is not resisting Martha Burk (the feminazi who is trying to force the club to admit women) out of sexism but because the members want to smoke cigars together, tell dirty jokes, discuss prostate problems, and scratch themselves in odd places without glancing around first." - Columnist John Leo *********************************** Doing More Harm Than Good "A Clinton appearance down here in the black community could be huge. We just don't know what it would do for us elsewhere in the state. Our hunch is that it would hurt us badly." - Democrat operative on plans to have the former president do a campaign appearance with Democrat Sen. Mary Landrieu this weekend in Louisiana, AmericanProwler.org *********************************** Reagan's Legacy Beats Clinton's "There are several obvious reasons 'Clintonism' did not survive Clinton as 'Reaganism' survived Reagan. One is simply that Clinton left office a disgraced figure, while Reagan left as a hugely popular one, at least inside his own party." - Columnist James Traub, New York Times Magazine *********************************** More On Why Democrats Lost "There is another reason that Republicans beat Democrats... The electorate does not trust the party of perjurers, spin doctors and abusers of power." - Columnist R. Emmett Tyrrell Jr. *********************************** Whahhhhhh!!! "Fox News network, The Washington Times, Rush Limbaugh - there's a bunch of them (conservative news outlets), and some of them are financed by wealthy ultraconservative billionaires who make political deals with Republican administrations and the rest of the media." - Al Gore, New York Observer *********************************** The More the Merrier "Dear Chuck: I am on a lot of lists for updates, but I have to admit that yours is by far the most interesting, the most informative, and the most biting of any I receive.Keep up the great work.You make my day!" - News & Views reader Mike Sudlow of Hauula, Hawaii If you know someone who might like to join the growing army of conservative/libertarians (and a few Palm Beach Democrats) who receive our FREE Chuck Muth's News & Views briefings, just go to http://www.chuckmuth.com. *********************************** Crazy Like a Fox "Fox News is the only cable news network with improved ratings in the past year. . . . With an average of 1.4 million nightly viewers this month, Fox has had a 17 percent increase in viewership compared with a year ago, according to Nielsen Media Research numbers released Wednesday. "CNN lost 31 percent of its prime-time viewers compared with last year's numbers, with an audience of 921,000. MSNBC continues to languish in third place with a 43 percent drop and 528,000 viewers." - Washington Times, 11/29/02 *********************************** Gore Flops As Author "Al Gore is said by associates to be surprised that his newest books on family aren't selling well. . . . 'We aren't selling any,' says a sales associate for Borders Books in Bethesda. . . . The audiences at Gore's book signings have been skimpy, and worse, those that do come to hear him haven't been buying the books." - Prowler, AmericanProwler.org *********************************** Campaign Slogan "Today's wrinkle-free candidates are so afraid of offending anyone, so committed to the notion that the only way to win is by running to the middle that they end up standing for nothing more profound than: 'Vote for me, the other guy sucks!' " - Columnist Arianna Huffington ********************************* The Straight Poop Catch Chuck's latest biting commentary on today's current events at "Muth's Truths".

The time has long since passed when the long-suffering American people should take seriously further congressional lamentations about why fundamental tax reform can't happen right here, right now. Russia did it; so can America." - Columnist Jack Kemp *********************************** It's the Stupid Schools, Stupid "(The government schools have) already got these kids for 12 years, and they 're not getting the job done. But rather than address the problems and reform the system, they seek to expand it (into preschool). . . . Our preschoolers are the A students on the international curve...our children are more prepared than children anywhere else in the world. It's only after they've been in the traditional school system for several years that they begin to fall behind." - Darcy Olsen, executive director of the Goldwater Institute, on efforts to expand mandatory pre-schooling around the country *********************************** It's the Law "We don't allow people to flout environmental law whenever it suits them; we shouldn't allow people to flout immigration law." - Columnist Linda Seebach ************************************ Long Savings on Long Distance!
