Yes Andrew, you hate "Bill" and you believe that those who criticize Bush are spouting "the typical Demo line which we have to listen to ad infinitum ad nauseum" as they parrot the "moanings and meanderings of our....European partners," and you believe that Bush is attacked for his good work just like "Teddy Roosevelt" was, and you believe that the success of that evil Osama can be placed directly at the feet of Clinton. I guess when it comes to a "typical [partisan] line," you know exactly what you're talking about. The fact is that one president's failings don't justify the next president's failings. The fact is that people are dying now for a "tilting at windmills" cause and that's destabilizing the entire Gulf region while things have gone from bad to worse with a trail of excuses in their wake. But hey, how do you feel about Bill Clinton?

<What you say now about Bush was spouted loud and clear by your 1901-1904 think alikes when attempting to undermine the administration of Theodore Roosevelt.> That's astute, and true. A hundred years ago, an Imperial President was waging a war of aggression against Philippine nationalists, and calling it a war for freedom and peace and civilization. And there were scandals, when our generals in the field (old Indian fighters, who had learned their techniques during the ethnic cleansing of Natives from Montana and Wyoming), were quoted as giving orders to execute all males over the age of ten, in rebel-infested areas. And the Militarists responded to these scandals, by calling the critics names, the same names you use today, in similar circumstances. Other than his incompetence, and the fact that he is losing his war, and about 90 IQ points, the second Bush is very similar to the first Roosevelt.
