- Go to The Top Ten Reasons Why Bush Needs To Be Replaced
excellent list--but too late for most
Now that the "s"election is over, we are told that what we all thought mattered, didn't. It was a moral question--hmmm--spin that one around a few times. Whose morals? Where do they come from? Are they relavent to our modern intelligence? Or is the world still flat and the Earth is the center of the Universe? I guess so--since the Bible tell me so-- At least now we can know what we are trying to accomplish here in America where diversity is one of our shinning examples and we breath freedom from our lips like fragrance from a rose, but we still resort to force when we "hand" it out to others.
Peace,

Thanks, all,
This election business is extremely important. Letting our guard down as a people is dangerous and allows the government to usurp even greater powers over us individually and collectively, something the Founders tried to instill in the Constitution, something Dubya is not above abrogating or dismissing. The lauded newsman Pierre Salinger, who just recently passed away, was so fed up with American politics and the electoral college specifically that he stated that if Dubya won the election in 2000, he'd move to France. Well, true to his word, he moved to Paris shortly after Bush won, where he died. So, I understand the sentiment about leaving the country, but I much prefer Canada to France.

Amen. Crossing my fingers - or moving to Canada - depends on what happens.
Will be covering it all tomorrow night for the local masses.

SaulRelative,
Thank you for enumerating the facts. Facts don't seem to matter in a debate, though. I've been appalled listening to the Fox and other conservatives spin the debates into victories and attack Kerry. Fortunately, though, the undecided vote should be split in favor of Kerry. Let's hope.
