Let me summarize my political position. I want to go back to the horse and buggy days but I want to keep my car (and few other devices, including my computer).

I'm not convinced that going backward is the way to go. I'm not even convinced that it's possible to go backwards, and certainly not convinced that it's a Good Thing. I agree that we need to reduce the size and scope of the state, but I'm afraid that too much rhetoric about 'going back' or 'rolling back' , while it has a certain nostalgic appeal, will be viewed by many folks as an attempt to reinstate some of the EVILS of those times rather than the good aspects. Not sure what the best way through this rhetorical minefield *is*, but it's something to be aware of. -- Susan Hogarth http://www.colliething.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
