Yes. The argument that Gore or Kerry would have SOMEHOW been WORSE than George W. Bush. All I can say is, ARE YOU SERIOUS? Do you have ANY grip on America's present reality?

>> We, the people, elected George W. Bush. Twice. Did they really or did the people that bothered to vote, pick the lesser of two evils? In a 2 horse race where they are both nags, one will be perceived to be "better" than the other but they are both nags in reality.<< I picked the lesser of two evils in the last two elections. I voted AGAINST W. Twice. I wasn't fond of Gore or Kerry, but anybody with an eye and an ear could see and hear that W was an idiot. The three current runners represent at least some competence, although I don't see how any of them can get us out of the complete mess that W has created. As to Wharf's suggestion that the Fed is the cause of all the problems, I'd have to say the multi-trillion dollar war is one very large piece of the problem, and the Fed is just compounding it.
