"Whether or not Bush took a hope shot call from Kenny Boy near the end, he and many
others set the stage for these guys to breed corruption and favoritism for the "right" people for years.
It may be the way the system works (now), but it's past time for a change."

Dear Portage, I agree. Our government is corrupt! Americans must demand change.
Otherwise, I don't believe the American people will prosper, although W and his rich
friends will increase their wealth at our expense.

My impression of W: he always does what he wants. He ignores the law, because he
has never had to follow it He hides behind his family's name. He got away with it in Texas.
Now, W, Cheney and the others practice his successful Texas tactics in the White House.

Thanks for your post!

Well said. And:

"It is essential to such a government that it be derived from the great body of society, not from an inconsiderable proportion, or a favored class of it; otherwise a handful of tyrannical nobles, exercising their oppressions by a delegation of powers, might aspire to the rank of republicans, and claim for their government the honorable title of republic."

-James Madison, "The Federalist Papers"
