Thanks, I'm glad you took it the way I meant it.

I have been seduced by the Goofball side.

You don't know the power of the Goofball Chrisisall

It seems to me that people are ready to believe nearly anything negative about them and no amount of evidence supports their positive actions. Its kind of sad in a way.



For me, without going into a three page essay, it's as simple as this. Bush just seems to have went out of his way to be everything Osama bin Laden accuses America of being. Arrogant, greedy, imperialistic - it's as though Osama is formulating GW's policies. He threw away a golden opportunity to use American power to make the world a safer place and has, instead, alienated the very people who could do something about terrorism. He's created the real potential, indeed the likelihood, for many, many years of our nation (and my children) living in a state of perpetual war. The "War on Terror" is bullshit. It's doublespeak nonsense that should have been recognized as such by our weak-kneed press long ago.

True. But Bush's grades were an issue in 2000 and Kerry's Vietnam service were an issue in 2004. Kerry's grades were not an issue because he didn't release them until this year.

All that might be pathetic, but you can never be certain what the voting public (or at least the media) thinks is important.

Silly issues run the gambit from Hillary's hairstyle to AlGore's personality (or lack therof). But is an issue that ultimately decides the fate of the Presidency (in really close elections like 00 and 04) and the course of nations really silly? Or maybe we all just think a bit to much of ourselves and our so-called educated choices.

Here's a relevant little quote from a 1978 movie:
" I'm here to fight for truth, justice, and the American way."
" You're gonna wind up fighting every elected official in this country."

Says it all, don't it Chrisisall
