Neither interpretation sounds true. Far more likely is a sigh that it will probably take oceans of blood before we awaken enough to stop the tragedy. Compare this to G Gordon Liddy howling that listeners shoot shoot in the eye any federal agent they find snooping around, with or without a warrant. I Guffawed. This from a former federal agent break in artist burglar! If only his advice had been followed re him. Oh, don't sweat it, Gautam. The american people did NOT elect Bush in 2000. A majority rejected him and his values. Yet the left assured that he got in. Don't worry, the far left won't let you down. They'll do it again. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
