Awe, c'mon Zeke. That's a pretty bleak picture to paint. What Bush did in Iraq was inevitable. Even kErry confirmed in recent years that Iraq was a considerable threat and I heard him say that the president has the right to make a unilateral move if necessary. If Bush didn't make the move, it would have had to be done in the very near future by someone. Look at how Libya reacted, and Iran, and North Korea. It really shook them up. We must flex our muscles for the sake of self preservation. I fear most take it for granted that our Country, one that is the most succesful in the history of the world, is indestructable. That's the farce. The last election? That's a weak argument that it was a sham. How many times do the votes have to be counted?

I don't agree with the expansion of the governments role in taking care of everyone because they can't take care of themselves approach under Bush. But you bet that I sleep better at night knowing that he is doing as much as anyone can to protect the citizens he works for.

Kerry scares me as the president. Edwards a heartbeat away is laughable. THe only thing they seem to stand for is the unseating of the current administration (regime, as they call it). That's not leadership.
