>> LOL...I am glad that's good enough for you.

It isn't bad, considering the trashing Bush has taken from the Left, and as mentioned in Miller's speech, the Dems' willingness to put partisan politics ahead of national security. Given the attack he has come under from the likes of Michael Moore -- a media liar with much more than a barrell of ink.

Given this, 51% is plenty good.

Iran is said to be close to nukes

They're not close, but they damned well would like to have them. My guess is Israel will take care of this problem for us, as they did before.

NK of course spun out of control under bush.

Out and out lie. NK spun out of control under Clinton. We just didn't find about it until Bush was in office.

Under Bush's watch not only did North Korea go nuclear, but South Korea too.

Clinton in NY Hospital for Heart Surgery

Fri Sep 3, 2004 01:17 PM ET

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Former President Bill Clinton was being admitted to a New York hospital on Friday for heart bypass surgery, according to a statement from his office.
"Former President Bill Clinton is being admitted into New York Presbyterian Hospital today and is scheduled to have bypass surgery," the statement said.

ABC and CBS television reported that Clinton, 58, had checked into the hospital for quadruple heart bypass surgery.

A Democratic Party official told Reuters that Clinton, who served two terms as president from 1993 to 2001, had gone to the hospital complaining of chest pains.

The severity of Clinton's coronary problem was discovered after tests at Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, New York, ABC News reported. His coronary results were not favorable and he was found to have multiple lesions, it said.

CBS News said doctors found a blockage.

CNN quoted a source close to the former president as saying the surgery could take place as early as Saturday.

Clinton, the 42nd U.S. president, promised at the Democratic National Convention in July to be a "foot soldier" in John Kerry's race against Republican President Bush.

The former president received a rousing welcome from delegates after being introduced by his wife, New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Clinton, who had a reputation for having a big appetite and for fighting a weight problem, showed no signs of heart problems during rigorous health examinations that were made public during his presidency.

Clinton has been active giving speeches and completing and promoting his best-selling memoir since leaving office in 2001.

His charisma and political clout were seen as a big potential asset to Kerry in the coming hectic weeks of the presidential election campaign.
