2. My only contention

From the very start has been that Clear Channel's primary motivations were political in nature, and that they just happened to decide that Howard needed to be suspended on the very same day when he said that it was time for Bush to go.

Nothing has made me change my mind in this regard. But feel free to go to bat for Clear Channel.
