Yes, I agree with you. I really think that most people would actually agree with the Democratic agenda if they knew what it was. Instead I think they hear it through the prism of Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilley and the likes. Most people are so busy working that they really have no idea what is really going on. Stupid things get blown out of proportion, like Theresa Kerry's comments about Laura Bush not working. I could care less. I raised 4 kids and didn't work most of the time when they were small but her comments don't effect me at all. Who cares? Every radio show and tv show I listened to yesterday talked about this issue. I have come to the conclusion that the reason those stories have legs (along with sex scandals) is simple--everyone has had sex, grabbled with issues of working and raising children etc. You don't even have to know anything or read or think and viola you can have an opinion. I was a soccer mom last election but now my youngest is 18. Also have a 21,24 and 26 year old. Now what is important is the draft. Equally important is the barbaric idea that preemptive military action seems to be the preferred method of solving our nation's problems. We seemed to have become a blood-thirsty nation overnight. 911 didn't cause that. We can't lose what our country stands for and symbolizes to the world over one attack.It's all so disturbing that this blood-lust appeals to fundamentalist so-called "Christians." I don't mean to offend anyone but look at the "red" states. How can this president and his followers pretend to "respect life" and drop thousands of bombs on Iraqis? How can we respect a guppie-like embryo more than living breathing people?
