I can't decide which one is more of an outrage: media behemoths trying to seduce Jessica Lynch for the big interview or a new courthouse on Long Island named after Alfonse D'Amato. It's always great when giants like CBS and New York Time's go at each other. Now that's entertainment.

Okay - it's really an easy one. I was just fooling around.

Hands down it's Senator Pothole's legacy on the court system. And I'm not talking about all the courts he should have sat in as a defendant. I have no proof that D'Amato did anything illegal before or after his time in office. But naming a courthouse after Al D'Amato is almost as bad, say, as naming National Airport after Ronald Reagan. I said almost.
