Yah. His name is Jeb & he probably has a stake in Diebold. Have a good thanksgiving & stay out of the Jack Daniels. On the other hand if you are going to drive,then drink & face the traffic with confidence.

Then some people think that Jesus had something to do with it. I didn't know that Jesus lived in Florida? The PPIC believes he was put into office by God and cites Jesus as his favorite political philosopher. clarionherald.org "...“What political philosopher or thinker do you identify with and why?” His response: “Christ, because he changed my heart.” Torrents of criticism have fallen on Bush by those who believe they have detected insincerity. Bush was looking for a way to pander to the religious right and born-again voters whom he needs for the White House.... The reduction of Jesus to a political figure, domesticated within political categories, is not new. The Gospels contain many instances of the crowd (the disciples as well) wanting to make Jesus a king. Each time Jesus flees... The kingdom and the Gospel transcend all earthly programs, ideologies and structures. All earthly social orders and cultures exist under the judgment of the kingdom. It is a most dangerous form of idolatry which proclaims a total oneness between the socio-political order and the kingdom..." As the man said, "God save us from these people."
