           Moi? Silly? I don't believe I called Leno a left winger. Most of the
    time if they get onto ABC, CBS, NBC, and PBS they are left wing but not
    necessarily -- after all a hundred years ago (maybe a little less) they used to
    have specials with Bob Hope.
           I don't even object to Leno's getting paid for doing what the customer
    wants to hear. I confined myself to the criticizing the many jokes I hear on
    TV that are labeled as being about individuals who are attached to the joke
    only by the label.
           Frankly I don't care if the butt of the joke is Clinton, Bush or
    anyone else you care to name.

           I would be happy to sit with you and watch Leno -- if you let me have
    the remote control. In about 30 seconds I will be out of there. <G> After
    all as you say 25% of the potential audience is a big audience. But then, 75%
    is a lot more.
