It might be criticizing the Denver Post and Musgrave for being childish, but it might also be a picture of me chanting "nyah, nyah, nyah nyah nyah!"

I honestly couldn't be more amused by Musgrave- I always felt she was a clown- and this is just so fitting I can barely stand it. As for the media- you are spot on. The media doesn't take responsibility for the role it plays in society- particularly when it comes to elections.

You're all very indulgent. Well, I understand that my readership is international, not local, but occasionally I just have to comment on local politics and the local media!

Meanwhile, have you seen this, from Saxby Chambliss? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_3T6q88QF4 I've watched it several times, and I still can't believe it! Yes, well.

I'll give it a shot. MM also got nicked this week in I think it was Newsweek's *Conventional Wisdom* column for icing the process. I had a chance to see Willy Wonka for the first time on Thanksgiving at a post-dinner screening, and the kid above pictorially standing in for Musgrave looks like she's about to get sucked down the "Bad Egg-ragator" in the Chocolate Factory. Maybe that accounts for her continuing silence, since sound can be drawn back into the tube faster than the proverbial speed of, um, sound?
