Confederate Yankee reports that the local media in New York’s 22nd District have completely ignored the conspiracy theories of Congressman Maurice Hinchey.

UPDATE at 2/21/05 2:17:11 pm:

Local media in New York may have ignored it, but MSNBC isn’t; I’m just about to do a call-in interview for their Connected Coast to Coast show. (Scheduled for 2:30 Pacific.)

UPDATE at 2/21/05 2:56:53 pm:

Can you believe Ron Reagan would try to argue that Rep. Hinchey’s “theory” could possibly be correct? The sound bite format of the show didn’t allow for it, but it would have been fun to try to get Reagan to construct that scenario, and watch him fail dismally.

LGF was also featured on CNN today, and I spoke with a Fox News producer as well. (I suspect it may be on Brit Hume’s show, but don’t know for sure.)

If Rep. Hinchey is smart, he’ll get out in front of the cameras as soon as possible and apologize for his ludicrous statements.

 Frank says:

In every language, the first word after "Mama!" that every kid learns to say is "Mine!" A system that doesn't allow ownership, that doesn't allow you to say "Mine!" when you grow up, has -- to put it mildly -- a fatal design flaw. From the time Mr. Developing Nation was forced to read "The Little Red Book" in exchange for a blob of rice, till the time he figured out that waiting in line for a loaf of pumpernickel was boring as f*ck, took about three generations. ... Decades of indoctrination, manipulation, censorship and KGB excursions haven't altered this fact: People want a piece of their own little Something-or-Other, and, if they don't get it, have a tendency to initiate counterrevolution.
