Thank you, PartyTime, I try to be correct. I do a lot of research and humbly know my stuff when it comes to certain things, especially S+L debacle and environment. I also went to school with Bush type kids in east coast prep schools. My best friend was the son of a rich GOP politician just like the Bushes. His was being groomed for politics by his parents but was torn by the moral compromises he'd have to make accepting the GOP platform on social issues. In the end though the power and the money rule, including oil money which funds even GOP candidates in New England. I remember sitting with that family in their ski chalet as they entertained the biggest oil-salesman in New England. They were crafting a deal with the "devil" to try and get their campaign financing. These days with the cost of TV ads things are even worse.
