A fat lot of good school prayer did  you, too.  True Christians allow all
people to worship God according to the dictates of their own consciences.
If you spent more time examining your own behavior, instead of blaming your
bullying on school prayer and "condoning teachers" (Oh, that's a laugh), 
you would see that the real problem was that you had no faith in God, and
in your communication with Him (prayer).

Don't justify the elimination of voluntary school prayer in order to cover
your own brutish beatings of Jewish kids.

AC>I don't see it as very likely. In most places, its on late-night.

In San Francisco it's scheduled for 2am.  It's on the CBS affiliate.
I was kindof surprised that it was on such a strong station.  But it's
going to have to get very good ratings for a station to move it
from that time period.  This is usually the time period a station will
move a new syndicated show once it fails in it's regular time and
they are just playing episodes till their contract expires.  It's
pretty unusual to debue a show in this time slot.  I would imagine
they are protecting the show so that if it becomes a hit they will
have the rights to it and will move it to a better time.

Hey, now, Leno hits both sides.  In an interview, he said he was
"Fiercely independant.  Every time I think I might be a Republican,
they do something  greedy, and every time I think I might be a
Democrat, they do something stupid."  True, he does lean pretty heavily
on the Quayle jokes, but he gets in quite a few zingers on Clinton
every night I've watched him.  And he's constantly going after Teddy
Kennedy.  ("Teddy Kennedy has the election in his pocket.
Unfortunately, he can't find his pants.")

He even stole Rush's line about the QE-II running aground on Teddy's
car.  I wonder if  he listens to Rush's show?

I'm looking forward to Rush's show.  But 2AM... egad.  Oh, well, that's
what VCRs are for...

I was always taught that one of the Ten Commandments was "thou shalt not

Not to pick on you, Doug.  This just brings up the problems associated
with basing government on religious principles.  You say there are
"mainline Christians" who believe that stealing is OK in certain 
circumstances.  So which Christian principle is it going to be?

    Regardless of the quality of Quayle's legal work, Al, would you say 
that Mitch has addressed Steve Tyree's original statement that Quayle has 
"worked hard his entire life in the private sector"? As Alex pointed out, 
between Dan's college career and his terms in Congress and the White House, 
It's unclear just when he could have managed to fit in an "entire life" of 
hard work in the private sector (unless he was moonlighting, of course).

    I can sit by and watch the Quayle vs Clinton debate most of the time, 
but when people try to claim that Dan Quayle has extensive experience in 
the private sector it's time for me to step in. I'm only 31 and I bet I 
have more "private sector" work experience than Dan Quayle.

    Don't get me wrong; I'm not trying to say that Clinton has any better 
private sector experience than Quayle. I just think it's a little 
disingenuous to try to paint Quayle as a Washington outsider when he's 
been living and working in Washington for the past 20 years.

Actually he did work for a few years in the private sector as an attorney,

Subject: Rush's TV Show
Organization: Iowa State University, Ames, IA
Date: Tue, 15 Sep 1992 06:00:38 GMT

   If Rush's TV show is going to succeed, it needs to evolve from what I saw
in the first show tonight.  I really do not think it is going to succeed 
as-is.  

   Rush is extremely reluctant to have guests, and I think this is a vice for
his show.  The few times Rush has taken a guest on his radio show, I have
enjoyed the shows immensely.  He has demonstrated from these few times that
he can be a good interviewer.  There are lots of interesting conservative
people 'out-there' in the Fruited Plain whom nobody else will interview except
maybe CNN.  But none of the more balanced CNN shows (such as Evans & Novak,
Capital Gang, or Crossfire) take calls.  And the hosts of these shows also
are not as good at asking brilliant questions of a conservative guest as 
Rush is.

   So, here is how I think Rush should modify his show to make it more in tune
with what the TV-watching public wants: First, lengthen the show to an hour,
and shorten Rush's monologue from consuming half an hour to about 10 minutes;
besides, Rush could make plenty of mini-monologues while interviewing a guest.
Then take a guest or two; as a rule, make the guests always be politically 
conservative guests, people you'd expect to see on Evans & Novak or on the
right on Crossfire.  Then have Rush interview the guests exactly the way he
did on the radio, taking calls for the guest only and never for himself.
Finally, nuke the audience.  

   This kind of show would be more in tune with the kinds of formats that
have been shown to succeed.  But it would be different from all of them.
For instance, Larry King takes guests and calls, but he never interjects his
own oppinions the way Rush does.  There would be no audience, as there is
on Donnywho.  It would be a blending of the positive aspects of shows on TV
that have been shown to succeed, while preserving the politically conservative
irreverent humor from Rush's radio show.

(Note:  Bush supporter speaking.)  I'll agree with Mr. Adams that George  
is likely running scared.  I can't buy his explanation, though.  If George  
would simply take Clinton up on a discussion of the issues and how he  
really feels about them, I believe he'll come out of top.  For some  
reason, though, he's not willing to do that.  He wants to take Slick  
Willie on with heavily moderated terms, which I believe would likely work  
to his detriment.

Does anybody else have any ideas on why George is so bloomin' afraid?

Quayl was born with a silver foot in his mouth.  He stands to inherit
a few hundred million worth of that stock.  The Pollians are not poor
people.  As for his private sector career, he didn't do anything of note.
I believe that Marilyn did more than Danno.

 It appears to me that Rush is tailoring his TV show for the portion of
of the media market which dosent listen to his radio show. When you watch
his show, just think about how the people who have never listened to
him, are reacting. "Hey Marge, Look at this. Someone is actually making
fun of Bill Clinton on the Television Set." Could it all be part of a
corporate strategy. Nah. His TV show will fail just like the radio show
has. I could be wrong though. Obviously, Rush wasnt worried about radio/
TV duplicity.
