Frankly, right now, Bill is doing GW one hell of a favor by serving as a lightning rod; attracting much of the energy of the anti corruption forces. Only the Republicans.....the Dems know where the real corruption is and they are zeroing in as I type this post. ted

Harry, With all of the immediate threats to America, why is the President Bush focused on building a missile shield that doesn't work for an enemy that doesn't exist? newyorktimes.com The only way to even begin to manage this new world is by focusing on precisely the area of foreign policy that the Bush team has the most contempt for: nation-building — helping others restructure their economies and put in place decent, non-corrupt government. Listen to Mr. Tenet on the Arab world: While everyone is focused on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, he said, "Population pressures, growing public access to information and the limited prospects for economic development will have a profound impact on the future of the Middle East. In many places in the Arab world, average citizens are becoming increasingly restive and getting louder. Through access to the Internet and other communication, a restive public is increasingly capable of taking action without any identifiable leadership or organizational structure." Scumbria
