The fact is that W IS doing what is needed on the terror front and is certainly much more of a real person that Kerry is (or will ever hope to be). Mind you, I think we've botched a lot of stuff in Iraq lately and I'm not at all happy with GWB not speaking more directly to this. Honestly I do wonder sometimes whther there's a pitcher of kool-aid being passed around up there. But, speaking as a Bostonian, I just don't believe a thing that comes out of Kerry's mouth. Up until right after the first Gulf War he was a lockstep liberal, which at least has the virtue of being consistent. But from there out, the plot's been harder to follow than a David Lynch movie. The Reblican party today is sort of where the Democrat party was 35 years ago (John Kennedy would be considered a conservative in todays world). However... the Democrat Party is, for all practical purposes, Socialist today. It will continue to move to the left so that one day soon it will pop out on the right as communist. The Dems today are basically comprised of blue lesbian sociology professors and yuppie-hating union pipefitters. Their real problem is that when one half of their members meet the other half, they're shocked by what they see. As a blue-state agnostic city-dwelling professional I may be a long way culturally from the Good 'ol Boys in TX and WV, but I could drink Bud from the can and talk guns, hunting dogs, and bass boats with them all afternoon long. Still, I agree that if Iraq was under its own control and Osama was slowly decaying in a 6' deep hole, I'd be tempted to vote for Kerry and the ultimate form of true conservative government: complete gridlock. -cwk. |

Their real problem is that when one half of their members meet the other half, they're shocked by what they see. An excellent observation on the true state of the Democrat party today. As a blue-state agnostic city-dwelling professional I may be a long way culturally from the Good 'ol Boys in TX and WV, but I could drink Bud from the can and talk guns, hunting dogs, and bass boats with them all afternoon long. WHat are you doing up there? Come on down and join the rest of us in the land where we still consider the US Constitution worthy of being upheld. Still, I agree that if Iraq was under its own control and Osama was slowly decaying in a 6' deep hole, I'd be tempted to vote for Kerry and the ultimate form of true conservative government: complete gridlock. Agreed! We had a few good years during the Clinton presidency because the congress was too busy investigation his administration to actually pass any more legislation. Especially the last few when Clinton was playing hide the zorketa with Monica in the oval "orafice". Gotta love it... ![]() Seriously though... the BEST thing we can do is turn Iraq into a decent stable government (no matter how "democratic") in the middle east. In the long run it will serve to stabilize the region and we will benfit. Yes, it will be costly, but the alternative will be costly also. Eeny Meeny Miney Moe..... |
