yes.  i think this is a good point.  one need not be conservative to find
this kind of thing an affront to intelligent political discourse.  news
articles can be taken to mean many different things.  the best course of
action, or so it seems, is to read news articles and arrive at conclusions
yourself - instead of letting someone with an obvious agenda and bias tell
you what they mean under the guise of a "newsletter."
