72. I'm awfully aware of that.
Needing to get Rush off the air, I mean. :)

Didn't mean to sound like I was contradicting you. I've been trying to shorten my posts lately, and I'm not good at it. I think I'll return to my long over-explanations, like "I agree, Dennis Miller is not an improvement. I'm glad to see that someone held Savage accountable for his irresponsible and offensive statements, and it warms my heart that those who did are from Mississippi, my home state. I agree with your point, that we will not have serious progress towards civilization in this nation until we replace the likes of Savage, Limbaugh, Boortz, O'Reilly, and the other hateful bigoted liars on the air with more neutral, fact-based commentary that attempts to educate and inform, rather than bully and frighten, listeners. Then maybe we can have a more informed citizenry who votes intelligently, rather than emotionally. That might not always result in liberal leadership, but it would at least reduce the numbers of Reagans and Ws we elect."

I wrote something like that first, figured it was too long, and shortened it. You got the Cliff Notes, and they weren't as thoughtful. Sorry. :)
