...same approach and applied it to governing. In each legislative session, he set a few policy goals, outlined the principles by which he would judge success and gave other people the power to work out the details.

...folks, it's time to start bashing again. You see, Little Miss Sweatshop decided to send a note to Howard Stern after Stern's painful separation from his wife of 21 years. Stern and Kathie Lee, of course, aren't particularly good friends. Actually, Howard has made it quite clear that he thinks Kathie Lee is the devil.
