Kenneth,

Re: Bush is afraid of those farmers.

Farmers? What the hell are you talking about? Farm subsidies don't go to farmers. They go to corporations.

Three of the five largest subsidized "farmers" in the nation are Archer, Daniels, Midland, the John Hancock Co. and Caterpillar. The other two are also corporate entities whose names I can't recall.

For goodness sakes, get over your old-fashioned notion that farm subsidies go to farmers. :)

Ciao!
