BRUCE ALMIGHTY? Now there's a moniker for you.
Can I then be The Kirb that Passeth All Understanding?
One distinguished member of this group already addresses me as G.
I will not say who.

and while it's a shocker even for me -- people don't care. When historians
properly judge today from the perspective of what's to come over the next 50

Nixon/Ford and Carter, for Ch*****-sakes. Polemics/diatribes do not change
most people's minds.

I got in trouble last time I said what I thought. I think Al Gore should
have been President because he won and that we wouldn't be in this kind of
trouble if he had. I also think the planet, at least America, would be in
better condition for our kids, green jobs would already be abundant, ergo we
wouldn't be in this financial mess (as deeply) , etc.
I think it's pretty obvious the primary was was won by Hillary and that
Bill would have gone in and fixed whatever he screwed up the first time, which
I'm sure so many Presidents wish they could have also done. I think we'd have
a kick-ass health program.
And finally, after this past decade, I think we should have an
Independent for POTUS. They work between party lines. In fact, I think it
would do us well to not have a politician for President. I think a successful
entrepreneur has more knowledge of what America needs than a politician who
just knows what America wants to hear.
PS: If Bruce talks politics, it's OK. If I do it, it's not. There's a
Yiddish expression for people like that...

I KNOW full well that my current 9th Halloween auction is far and away
my best ever (and you guys have ONLY seen Parts I and II, and you are going to
be even MORE amazed when you see Parts III and IV next week, which includes
much of the best material!).
I also know full well that these items would have certainly sold
incredibly well any previous year. I feel certain they deserve to, and if they
don't, I feel the blame can surely be placed on George Bush and this Democratic
Congress. Their massively wrong-headed policies in so many ways have hurt the
world drastically, and it may take decades to undo what they did in 8 years
(but maybe once the elections are over, we can quickly get on the right track,
and it hopefully won't take nearly that long).
If there ARE many bargains to be found in these auctions, I hope that
long-time collectors will take advantage of them!
Does anyone here doubt that George Bush will go down as the worst
President in American history? And I am not being partisan in saying this, for
I feel the Democratic Congress is at least equally to blame for all the
terrible decisions that were made the past 8 years (some they came up with on
their own, and some they simply went along with Bush, passing his wacky ideas,
when any sane person would have recognized them as recipes for disaster). And
they let the robber barons on Wall Street loot the country for 7 years, and
then, when those fools managed to bankrupt themselves, they go along with the
insane plan of bailing them out with OUR money!
What do YOU think?
