well it's a (nominally) free country, you may clutch
your predjudice tightly to yourself if you like. =)
I'm thinking that here's no way Bush could be as bad
as the press and all of the other deposed Clinton
worshippers paint him. If he is, well then that
sucks- but i'll arrive at that conclusion after
letting the man's work be felt before making such
overzealous judgments.
A big part of why Republicans seem to be so much more
widely hated then the Democrats lately is because they
have more of an affinity for long term goals.
Something which the hyperfast society we've built
doesn't take to at all.
I'm not sure if i've mentioned this before, but I
think Bush is playing the 'dumb old country boy' card
like Reagan did. It's certainly a shocking change
from the slick willie days. I remember vaguely just
how much Reagan was hated with the country coming out
of the Carter administration, too.

who doesn't really like either party at all, but hates
the spin-doctoring that hides truth even more.
