4. Thanks, I was actually fearful to look this morning. Watching CSPAN coverage
is such a relief--NO chattering media liars, no color commentary, etc.--but you know the other channels are spewing shit or obscuring essential bits, bits that people should hear unaccosted. I guess it may just be me, but I listen to football and baseball games with the sound muted--doesn't work so well with politics.
