Thanks for asking

Yes, I'll be begging for KUAR as usual this fund-raising cycle. Rosi Smith and I will be on from 6:30 a.m. to 9 a.m. Friday morning. As usual, I'll make a $10 match for every contributor who mentions the Arkansas Blog when they call in their own pledge to public radio in Little Rock. Seems like we got about 30 last time. 569-8485 or kuar.org

Thanks.

Donated my old vehicle this summer which amounted to (a whopping) $500, but I still plan on calling in because I actually look forward to the inconvenient interruptions by you and Rosi (Rosi mostly, but I think quite highly of you too).

My procrastination on putting in my pledge online (because I am anti-social) has paid off yet again!

Why should we give money to some left-wing radio station when we already have a leftist statewide daily newspaper, a communist news service (Arkansas News Bureau), and an apologist free weekly advertising throwaway? It's as if you want us to pay to think.

ARK. BLOG: Quick, somebody call Warren and tell him he's harboring a bunch of commies over at Second and Main.

I will be calling Fri morning. Love what PUBLIC radio does for our world. Keeps me informed and makes me think (and sometimes yell at my radio like when they played that piece on WV voters).

That's why I am a PUBLIC school teacher and support PUBLIC works and such. A basic difference between Dems and Repubs, I guess.

Arkansas members of Congress, especially Rep. Mike Ross, continue to benefit from fund-raisers where corporate lobbyists are either the hosts or main guests, illustrating one of the many sides of the lawmaker-lobbyist relationship that the public knows little about. /more/

Lay on, Governor

Theres a time to talk sweetly to members of the opposing party, and a time, when sweetness has failed, to slap them smartly across the face. President Obama has not yet learned this important lesson, to the detriment of his presidency and the nation. Gov. Mike Beebe, a more experienced lawmaker, has it down. /more/
