******************************* There's A Rotten Apple in Every Barrel As most of you know, we have some 24,000+ subscribers to GOP News & Views, including a few idiot left-wingers who are subscribed just to keep an eye on us. That's fine. We got nuthin' to hide. One of those idiots is named Peter Aretin [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ], who decided to gallop to the rescue of University of Ohio President Robert Glidden [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] who's school of higher "learning" forced a resident professor to remove an antique rifle from its trophy case on the wall in his office because some numbskull administrators thought the relic was "threatening." Aretin dropped to his knees in support of President Glidden and informed him that the "present teapot-tempest about Professor Washburn's rifle is being stoked by Chuck Muth, a smug Nevada Republican party hack who shares his shallow, hastily formed and one-sided views with an e-list of trained ninnies." Trained ninnies? Well I never! This fool Aretin would be out of his depth in a parking lot puddle. And if you see two people talking, and one looks incredibly bored . . . Aretin's probably the other one. He is, in fact, a nothing. But what really frosted my flakes was Glidden's response to Aretin . . . which he cc'd to me for some reason. He thanked Aretin for ratting us out (as if we cared), then took an arrogant shot at all of you who emailed him by saying Edith Sitwell (whoever that is) got it right when she said, "I am patient with stupidity, but not with those who are proud of it." We disagree with Sitwell. We have no patience with stupidity . . . especially the kind that thinks displaying a Reconstruction-era rifle on the wall of an office is somehow a threat. And we have no patience for a university president who apparently fell out of the Stupid Tree and hit every branch on the way down. Now get back to work all you "ninnies." :) ********************************* Long Savings on Long Distance!

Incredibly enough - or perhaps in a stroke of advance planning - no Democratic Senator on the Committee faces re-election this fall. The Senate has approved only eight of thirty Presidential nominations to appellate courts. Three have had a hearing but no vote, while 18 have no hearing scheduled. Eight of these have been pending since last May." - Wall Street Journal editorial, 4/19/02 ****************************** Hey, Don't Give 'Em Any Ideas, Cliff "They are only suing because they happen to dislike a product that a company produces and markets legally. This is as absurd as suing a car manufacturer for drunk driving accidents, or suing a fast food company because its burgers have too many calories." - Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.) on GOP efforts to block cities and counties from filing more nuisance lawsuits against gun manufacturers in efforts to "bleed" gun makers to death ****************************** Disorder in the Union Ranks "You might not see the picket lines, but a chunk of the American labor movement is staging a notable walkout - against the Democratic Party. . . . Leading the revolt is James P. Hoffa, head of the AFL-CIO's third-largest union, the 1.4 million Teamsters. . . . He has lobbied inside Big Labor for a more neutral political bent and his officials were recently overheard giving Democrats on Capitol Hill hell for killing jobs. "...Meanwhile, the United Auto Workers, electricians and machinists have rebelled against Democrats on issues from fuel-efficiency standards to nuclear energy. They follow last year's resignation from the AFL-CIO by the influential United Brotherhood of Carpenters, along with its half-million members and $4 million in annual dues. "Some of this is issue specific, but it's also a sign of deeper labor tensions. When John Sweeney took over the AFL-CIO in 1995, he turned it in a markedly more partisan and ideological direction. He aligned Big Labor with a coalition of interest groups on the cultural and big government left. This is fine with most public-sector unions (teachers especially), which grow along with government. But this leftward tilt has increasingly alienated many of the old industrial unions, which grow only when the private economy does." - Wall Street Journal, 4/16/02 ******************************* Reefer Madness "Some 52,000 people (in New York City) were arrested and jailed for smoking marijuana in public last year, up from 720 in 1992. Yes, a lot of seemingly knowledgeable folks will tell you, 'Oh, nobody gets busted for pot anymore.' But, quite a few people do. . . . More than 59,000 inmates are in federal, state or local prison for marijuana offenses, including 15,000 for possession, not trafficking, according to the Marijuana Policy Project estimates based on Bureau of Justice Statistics reports." - Columnist Clarence Page ******************************* Go, Fighting Whities! "I bought both my husband and my very conservative 22-year-old sonWhities jerseys. My son hasn't seen his yet, but he loves the idea.My husband didn't know he was getting one, and when he saw it he just about fell off the couch laughing.They can't wait to wear them.Thanks a million!" - "Fighting Whitey" Terry Smith ******************************* Limited Number Still Available Only a couple dozen official ChuckMuth.com "Fighting Whities" sports jerseys are left.
