After his speech last night, people polled in the US are now concerned first with the possibility of war with Iraq by a 2 to 1 margin. It appears that the diversion of attention from the weak economy has been successful. Realistically, a government can do a lot more about a war than they can about an economy, so it would be something attractive to the average politician whose first concern is after all to stay in office. Yeah, my registeredf political affiliation is "other" in a state where there are Democrats, Republians, Independents and Greens. When they offer the option "cynic", then I will make a declaration ;-) Civileme
