A timely and thoughtful posting. However, the Washington dream makers are
not simply spinning fantasies, but hard at work formulating programs and
legislation loaded with  more than simply rhetorical illusions. First on
the chopping block will be public television and other federally funded
havens of Mcgovern-niks. Unfortunately, DC liberal pen pushers are more apt
to be cowering in some congressional hallway rather than confronting this
cyberfacsism. The NEA cuts were simply a prelude of bigger and better
things sure to come; Newt is on a serious roll and Bubba doesn't have a
clue.
