Hey, 'girlfriend' ... you ARE female, correct, 'Westi?' Seems to be 'necessary' to 'declare gender' and/or sexual preference for 'credibility' to post on this board. Never mind. It 'don't matter' to me, in Bush PC parlance which so many here seem to identify ... In order for the idiot to actually be 'in the race,' as 'the incumbent,' the Bushes (plural) will have to 'extricate themselves' very publicly and legally, from the ENE 'situation.' in order to simply 'survive' the second year of the first term of this illegimate 'presidency.' Pass the popcorn watching the squirming to began THIS THURSDAY. -g- bia

Conservatives are not beyond shooting themselves in the foot politically, thus all the silly strategic advice for Bush emanating from the conservative publications. Bush, having watched this political incompetence for 9 years, knows better than to do any more than say "Thanks a lot", and ignore it. There is very little that would allow conservatives to blow off any toes in the next 2 elections. The one guaranteed way, of course, would be to call for a draft (i.e., "national service"). A lesser possibility, but perhaps more toe-destroying in the longer run, would be to advocate, Buchanan-like, a closing off of the Mexican border. Bush, once again, knows better on the latter also. And I won't even bother to mention poorly-trained draftee soldiers jamming up commercial airports...
