*************************************** Spoken Like a True Liberal "Government support for the arts is not a frivolous giveaway that some believe. It's a good investment and sound economic development." - Actor Robert Redford *************************************** "Survey Says!" The post office is showing a whopping $5 billion "profit" for the year ending July 11 after boosting the cost of first-class stamps by 3 cents. In light of the windfall, should the cost of first-class stamps now be rolled back? Cast your online vote by going to the "Survey Says" page at www.CitizenOutreach.com *************************************** What's In a Name? I know I've written about this before...but it deserves repeating: If you are a candidate, potential candidate or elected official, BUY YOUR DOMAIN NAME...NOW! Before somebody who doesn't like you DOES. If your name is Bill Johnson, buy www.billjohnson.com TODAY. I've been telling people about this for a couple years now, and am still amazed at how many elected officials...as well as candidates with high-priced consultants...fail to do this one, simple thing in this Internet age. The latest example comes from my home state of Nevada where state Sen. Ray Rawson failed to buy www.rayrawson.com. This week, opponents of Rawson purchased HIS domain name and put up an ANTI-Rawson web site. There just is NO excuse for this kind of negligence. On the other hand, you should ALWAYS check to see if your political opponent has been stupid enough to allow you to buy HIS domain name. I checked to see if terminally incompetent Tony Dane, the addle-minded clod mismanaging the soon-to-fail copy-cat recall attempt of Nevada's governor, was smart enough to secure www.tonydane.com. Not surprisingly, he wasn't. Guess who owns it now? :) *************************************** Campaign Hot Tips New to campaigns and grassroots activism?

He knows better, and those he is now attacking have every right to resent the mischaracterization of their motives and integrity emanating from his office." - David Keene, chairman, American Conservative Union *************************************** Just a Reminder "Al Qaeda is still out there." - Columnist Morton Kondrake *************************************** Know Thy Enemy "There are around the world thousands of Islamic fanatics who want to kill Americans because they believe Allah is down with that. These people are taught from the time they are children that Jews and Americans are undeserving of life on this planet. There is no negotiation with most of these zealots; there is nothing one can say to dissuade them. They want blood, and they will use any and all means to get it. . . . It's us or them." - Columnist Bill O'Reilly *************************************** 4.75 cents-per-minute Long Distance * All state-to-state calls in the continental U.S. * Residential or commercial * 6-second billing increments * 24 hours/day * 7 days/week * No access codes * No minimums * No activation fees * Calling Card Rate is 10 cents per minute * No monthly service charge unless your bill is less than $20.00 a month (then a $1.99 service charge will apply) * No need to change your local phone company * No hassles * Easy sign-up. * And a small portion of each bill goes to help continue publishing our FREE Chuck Muth's News & Views e-newsletter.

Osama Mamma "While the rest of us, Democrats and Republicans alike, spent this September 11 mourning those whom we must never forget, Sen. Patty Murray of Washington presided over a fund-raising breakfast for 'a small group of supporters' who were hungry enough on a day of national remembrance to pay a thousand dollars for a plate of bacon and eggs. "...The breakfast was held between 8:30 and 9:30, spanning exactly the hour two years earlier when the first planes hit the World Trade Center towers, so that anyone with a thought for the slain Americans could have 10 seconds of private silence between the grits and a fourth slice of bacon. It's not as if the lady was greedy. She did refrain from sending aides to pass the hat at ceremonies at Arlington National Cemetery. "...Patty Murray and her like-minded friends live on a planet unknown to astronomers. She set off a mild uproar last year with her suggestion that Osama bin Laden, recognized as an evil monster by the civilized world, is more "popular" than George W. Bush because he builds roads and schools and day-care centers and the Americans and their allies do not." - Wesley Pruden, "Pruden On Politics," 9/16/03 **************************************** Modern Fable "This nonsense about the United Nations rescuing America in Iraq is something Aesop would have published." - Columnist Bill O'Reilly ************************************** And How Did That Turn Out Again? "His campaign reminds me a lot of what we did 30 years ago." - Former Democrat presidential candidate George McGovern on current presidential candidate Howard Dean's campaign, "Washington Whispers," U.S. News & World Report, 9/22/03 ************************************** Moore Idiocy "You may be the person who can defeat George W. Bush in next year's election. . . . We need candidates in this race who will say the things that need to be said, to push the pathetically lame Democratic Party into having a backbone - or get out of the way and let us have a REAL second party on the ballot. This is war, General, and it's Bush & Co.'s war on us. It's their war on the middle class, the poor, the environment, their war on women and their war against anyone around the world who doesn't accept total American domination." - "Filmmaker" Michael Moore in a letter of support, but not "endorsement," to Gen. Wesley Clark *************************************** Duke and the Democrats "Modern Democrats insist on confronting thugs and tyrants with tea and sympathy. This approach was expressed indelibly by Michael Dukakis in 1988, who, when asked during the debates with George H.W. Bush how he would deal with a rapist in his wife's bedroom, offered to set up a blue-ribbon commission to study the root causes of crime. Poor Kitty Dukakis was to be left in her nightie to deal with the brute while the little Duke hurried off in search of ribbons." - Wesley Pruden, "Pruden on Politics," 9/16/03 *************************************** Affordable Campaign Websites!
