I do look at each individual situation and try not to generalize..... Again, you need to show me where I made statements on the current administration and their unconvicted crimes.....

i remember speaking personaly with so many who voted clinton in, they were choosing changing party line affiliations in the interest of a true desire to improve their nation over remaing loyal to a leader they saw as taking the us dowm the wrong path. the economy, unemployment, failures in education, these were all deciding factors at that time.

today there are many true patriots, who served, have owned businesses, raised families and celebrated the fourth of july without fail who are plum disgusted with bush and his works, for good reason. let us not demean these folks, who are so representitive of the voting populus.

You hit on a good point - it is important to evaluate politicians performances on an objective basis as opposed to a party political-allegiance basis.

Many of those who voted for the Iraq invasion, the sham 9/11 Commission, "Patriot" Act, gutting of the tax base through corporate welfare & giveaways, the enormous national debt, ad infinitum/ad nauseum...are Dems. This includes Clinton for instigating the NAFTA and GATT treaties, among other things. However, the Dem's erstwhile complicity in these matters pales in comparison to the Repig's largely illegal and treasonous agenda that we've witnessed since Jan. 2001. __________________ "Bush is the first President to admit to an impeachable offense." - John Dean, former Counsel to the President (Nixon) The aim of big corporations is to separate fools from their money all of the time and ordinary folks from their money most of the time.
