TGIF Quick Fix 6 (12/10/04)

Gotta roll today, folks. Got the annual CDA Christmas bureau party at noon, an editorial and Huckleberries to write before I quit breaking big rocks into little rocks. Onward.

APhoto Fix: Brent Bozell /Media Research Center (Opinion Fix) agrees with many, including columnist Christopher Hitchen that director Oliver Stone has lost it. Mega-flop “Alexander the Great,” starring Colin Farrell (above), is proof that the director is a few cans short of a six-pack.

1. Political ‘Toon Fix: Chuck Asay ( Steroids ).

2. Humor Fix: “I read in the paper today, that a lot of Americans when they travel to avoid trouble claim to be Canadian. In fact they also do it when they’re looking for prescription drugs” — Jay Leno .

3. My Way Fix: This Day in History here , This Day in Music here , Today’s Birthday here , and Postive Quote here .

4. Top of the News Fix: School censors Christmas from student performance here , Commercial flight to Vietnam first since 1975 here , African woman receives Nobel prize here , Bush picks Bodman for energy secretary here , and RockPaperScissors evolving into legit sport? here .

5. Stand Up & Be Counted Fix: The Christian Science Monitor sez the House GOP isn’t walking lock-step with President Bush on questionable policies such as open-door immigration here .

6. Opinion Fix: Charles Krauthammer /Houston Chronicle ( Afghanistan miracle ), Joel Mowbray /Washington Times ( Intel reform ), Rush Limbaugh /Rush Limbaugh Show ( Rumsfeld set up by reporter ), Brent Bozell /Media Research Center ( Oliver Stone’s Waterloo ), and Mona Charen /Creators Syndicate ( Good riddance, Civil Rights chief ).
