...The One-Minute Pundit

As it is making clear in zillions of dollars in ads, a big SuperArmey Fee Collector (i.e., a bank) has changed its name to Wachovia. It's pronounced Wah-CHO-vee-uh, but it looks like Walk-ova-ya or a Balkan banana republic, and pronounced properly it has vaguely Orwellian overtones, and I predict in time either the SuperArmey Fee Collector changes its name or merges with the other such fee collectors to form another hard-core free-enterprise CONSERVATIVE's dream -- A NATIONAL FEE COLLECTOR.

By the way, how many millions in fees did it take to devise that "what-is-it?" logo?
