Hi Carl,
Hey, if there were two presidents, one for foreign affairs and one for domestic, I'd consider voting for Kerry for the foreign affairs slot.

yeah, mr bush is oh so clever on domestic affairs. Took a projected surplus of between $2 and 5.5 trillion, depending on who was counting and when, and has turned it into a deficit of over $7t and counting to the tune of at least half a trillion a year. Oh right, that was his clever plan--after all, if we have a huge deficit we won't be able to spend anything on the "Dems" favorite projects--like rebuilding infrastructure that is slowly rusting away, or schools with broken windows and leaky roofs, or programs that might help people learn to read or to train people for better paying jobs, or healthcare or any of that other crap that any self respecting person would do on his/her own and if they can't well it just shows that they are lazy bum who ought to leave the country anyway and go off to one of those sooophisticaaated welfare states that hates the Us and blames us for everything anyway and that has 10-12% unemployment...

No mr bush is a right clever guy, gee his domestic program is grand--just look at that there prescription drug program, why he said he could do $540b worth of drugs for $400b, now that is a businessman talkin', yessir, why i'd vote for him to be my domestic affairs guy any day of the week.

Carl, you are brilliant, you know i acknowledge that--but sometimes i just don't get your POV. And yes, I've read my Plato and Aristotle and Aristophanes and my Cicero and Augustine and my Machiavelli and Locke and Blackstone and Hamilton and Madison and Jefferson--but I don't get why you think this guy is fit for any office in government at all, except perhaps the govt of people you consider your enemy.
