ha ha ha ha ha! Thanks for a good laugh this Sunday morning! I find it absolutely hilarious that the political party of Bush, in the majority in Congress, owns the White House, and has a majority in the Supreme Court, the trifecta- all the power in the country and nearly the world, continues to talk about the 'wrongs' committed by a President long gone (clinton) and a presidential candidate who was never elected (kerry)! I have a difficult time fathoming the absurdity of it all! Unless of course I factor in an economy on the skids, failed major domestic policy initiatives (social security and healthcare), cronyism and corruption on an unprecedented scale, a war started by those in power which is failing in its objective, a majority of the US perceiving that we are less safe now than we were when 911 occured, and significant disapproval of the US by the rest of the world. Now it makes sense- do whatever you must to stop people from seeing and realizing that the country is going to Hell under Bush.
