The following incident actually happened:

I had devised an interesting way to provoke thought in a bumper sticker message (something I often attempt - sometimes with mixed results). The sticker read "If Your Honor Student doesn't know Marx from Madison, Thank the NEA!"

A good friend of ours wanted more copies of this prototype and asked for permission to have some copies made which I happily granted. So she went to a copying and mail service - one of the popular franchises. A young girl politely waited on our friend and produced the copies as requested. But when she was ringing up the order her curiosity got the better of her and she just had to know more about the message of the bumper sticker. She just had to ask: "By the way, who is Marx from Madison?"

I suppose she thought Marx was some guy from Madison Wisconsin?

In the news... Alec Baldwin is reported to be threatening to leave the United States if George W. Bush wins the election. His wife Kim Bassinger says she believes him to be sincere in his threat and apparently would accompany him.

Can you imagine the incredible loss if these two assets were to not step upon American soil ever again? Just the amount of taxes they pay is probably sustaining who knows how many poor out-of-work actors who may also be forced to leave if only to find the Baldwins' enormous resources "trickling down" to them under some other more socialistic system in perhaps a more trendy left-wing modern European country. Danish anyone?

With more "new" alleged "revelations" of the possibility that Thomas Jefferson was the father of one, or even several children, by his slave Sally Hemings, I feel compelled to ask what I believe to be an infinitely more important question: where are Jefferson’s philosophical and spiritual heirs? Who has robbed America of Jefferson’s Genius? Who will pay us our restitution?

The word democracy has been one of the most abused and misunderstood terms in the English language, except perhaps for the word love.

I will suggest in this article that Rush is ill-advised at best to use the term democracy in the context above - to assign it to himself as if it were a badge of honor. Why? Because "words mean things." More than that, they mean different things to different people.

Samuel Adams, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and Noah Webster would all have cringed at the notion of being called the Doctor of Democracy. Yet they came to be known as the Father of the Revolution, the Father of our Country, the Father of the Declaration, the Father of the Constitution, and the Father of American Education, respectively.
