Haim:

We know you were and are not in favor of Bush as President but in response to this post, in your opinion do you:

1) Feel Al Gore and the team he would have picked would have been up to the task of facing this crisis? I don't but then I was much more an anti Gore vs. a pro Bush. Its the anti Gore which made me so supportive of Bush.

2) Feel the US doesn not have the ability to self correct (over time)? As far as Governments elected by the people I do although they will swing too far one way (look @ McCarthyism) and then the other in times of stress.

3) Think the Senate or House will let Bush be too conservative? I don't. Its just not practicle for Bush politically. Like Clinton before him Bush will move more towards the center. Bush had started while Clinton had to wait to lose the mid term elections. The middle is where the bulk of the us population is and Bush is similar to Clinton in knowing this.

4) Who do you think is responsible for the security lapses? IMO this is not the time for finger pointing. Resources need to go toward prevention vs. blame.

I've always found your posts intelligent and informative but as you can tell this is one where we disagree. I don't know why your so anti Bush but I can list plenty of reasons why I'm anti Gore. I'm sure we are both ignorant on many of the issues and I prefer to stay ignorant.

I am in favor of big business and glad we have the market to encourage small business to keep them on their toes.

Best

Tim
