For all that Nixon was a criminal, he wasn't functionally illiterate.  Reagan
may have been senile, but he had assembled a good staff who knew how to
maintain his figurehead presence.  Our Boy's main advocate is Marilyn Tucker
Quayle.  I rest my case.

Well, like I said, Stockman believed in trickle-down economics, until
it failed. He recognized the failure; Reagan did not. And Kemp still
hasn't.

Why Simon, you sound almost "liberal" here... :-) This is exactly
the kind of thing which is proposed by Al Gore. We are the Saudi Arabia
of natural gas. It is high-time we took advantage of this, both as our
major fuel source and as a potential export commodity.

Natural gas is far less polluting, cheaper to get out of the ground (not
to mention the huge amount of methane our agro community produces
(no animal fart jokes please)), and new technologies have made its
storage much safer.

Second, given the relative stability of our society and the ease in which
most gasoline driven engines can be converted to natural gas, I propose
a campaign to convince other countries to convert to natural gas. This
would provide them with a stable, cheap, and clean source of
energy which is
much safer to transport from an environmental stance, cut the
middle east off from money they are using for war and human rights
violation, and provide us with a huge export advantage while eliminating
our major import headache.

It is the right thing environmentally and economically. This would provide
us with the kind of increased revenue to solve our debt problems and
many of our chronic social problems.

	Well, Brian, a conservative is someone who likes the status-quo, right?
Right!  So, they are happy with the way things are, right?  Right, on the other
hand, Liberals (read: opposite of conservatives) aren't happy with the way 
things are, right?  Right.  So conservatives are happy, liberals want change.
And anyway, I am pretty well adjusted, and maybe cynical, but certainly not

No, it was September 7. Of course he didn't come right out and say that
Sept. 7 was Pearl Harbor Day; he simply made the remark on that day that
[I'm paraphrasing from memory] "not many people remember that this is

                    Or Ice T you like
                    Or the town you like
                    Or Murphy Brown you like
                    Well, you're beyond the pale.

       [Refrain]    When sweet Corrine, from those who bang 'er,
                    Goes searching for a coat-hanger
                    Whose voice will rail?
                    Marilyn Quayle!
