Actually, the countries you listed argue in favor of *my*
point, not yours... In those totalitarian countries, the
politicians have absolute control and on a whim can do
anything they damn well please... Also, it's nice to see
that you display such "tolerance" for views other than
your own by suggesting that I somehow don't belong in
this country...

No, I don't have contempt for the U.S. political system,
just for the politicians themselves... I agree that the
U.S. political system is one of the best, mainly because
it diffuses power so much that it is difficult to change
things, again arguing in favor of *my* point...

Just curious... You assert that the president is doing
a good job... On what basis do you determine whether Clinton
(or any other president for that matter) is doing either a
good or a bad job???
