I have often wondered why the donkey is the symbol of the Democrats. After watching them on TV, I have come to the conclusion that most of them act like a herd of jackasses living on loco weed, running around braying and trying to kick the heads off all who disagree with them. Their idea of compromise is for everyone to embrace their ideas, starting with Al Gore, Dick Gephardt, Barney Frank and even our own Jan Graham and Meg Holbrook. They want complete capitulation, not compromise.

We have a couple of congressmen who seem to have had a whiff of loco weed. As for Clinton's 70 percent plus approval in the polls, I have finally figured it out. The pollsters must have their own favorite (cess) pool to poll. They are the liberal media, gay and lesbian alliances, ethnic and civil liberty extremists, Hollywood culture, Democratic Party leaders and Larry Flynt.They poll at best, a few hundred people, then say the vast majority of the American people approve of the president. Let's get with it on the Internet. Poll 2 million or more. This will be a more realistic poll. AOL did it last week -- 79 percent favored removal of the president.
