They're completely separate quotes on exactly the same issue - SOCIALISM. There is no Bush sin that justifies giving the country a large dose of rat poison. Why have a democracy? In part, precisely because it gives me the freedom to call fools, fools. However, political correctness will soon have the weight of the federal beaurocracy behind it, so I will enjoy the freedom to do so while I still have the chance. It's not a matter of me being right or wrong, it's a matter of policies that have the potential to forever damage this 230 experiment in democracy in ways that are irreversible. Time will tell - just watch.

Yes, funnilu enough I read them all. I don't know about you but I'm not in the habit of replying to posts I haven't read. Faith added a comment about the election to a post that was very definitely on-topic. I would actually have had some sympathy with the view of keeping political issues of this list if that's all you'd posted. But you lose all right to hold that view when you put in your own totally disparaging remarks first. Now of course people are allowed to have opposing political views after all without that there'd be no democracy and no need to vote but the sheer hubris of calling everyone who disagrees with you a fool, well why have democracy? Why didn't you just tell America you were going to run it? And as for fools, well you quote two completely separate quotes on two completely separate issues and yet I get the impression you expect people to somehow link them together. Now I don't know you so I've no idea whether you're the one who's foolish enough to believe there's a connection or whether you beleieve everyone lese is foolish enough to believe that. Only you know the answer to that. Kirsteen
